Boomerang: NBC Suspends ‘Today’ Host Billy Bush Because …

. . . uh, why? Honestly, I’m mystified by this unexpected and, to me, inexplicable reaction to the Trump 2005 “hot mic” video leak: Billy Bush has been suspended from the “Today” show “pending further review of the matter.” It is unclear if he will ever return to the broadcast. “He will never be on […]

‘The Fire Under All of This Smoke is … Barely Enough to Light a Cigar’

So says Jazz Shaw of Hot Air in addressing the “October surprise” of the New York Times report on Donald Trump’s taxes.

No, Miss Universe Can’t Be 170 Pounds

A Young Gay Trump Supporter Confronts the ‘Politics of Personal Destruction’

  Lucian Wintrich is an artist in New York who lost his job because of his “Twinks for Trump” campaign. (“Twink” is gay slang for an attractive young male.) If you think Democrats are pro-gay, you should know what kind of persecution they inflict on gay Republicans: Wintrich had his social media accounts shut down, […]
