Erika Kirk’s call to stop political violence??? Here’s her late husband — whose legacy she profits from — delighting in the attack on Paul Pelosi and asking his followers to bail out his attacker. CBS is a fucking joke and Bari Weiss should be fired for this pathetic bullshit.

James Talarico: “The biggest welfare queens in this country are the giant corporations that don’t pay a penny in federal taxes. The biggest welfare queens are the CEOs who get a tax deduction for flying on a private jet. It’s not hungry kids. It’s not working parents who work

Farewell to CBS News and "60 Minutes." It just went the way of the Washington Post's editorial page Once you begin surrendering to Trump, he always wants more. You can’t appease a tyrant. Some thoughts...

Is this one of the greatest scenes in movie history? I think so — that’s why “It’s a Wonderful Life” is my all-time favorite.

This is insane: FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr announced that they will be hiring a "bias monitor" at CBS "who would report directly to the President." State run TV is officially here. Make sure everyone sees this.

Congratulations to the “Peace President” and FIFA Peace Prize winner Donald Trump, on making history as the first U.S. president to bomb seven countries in one year. Truly inspiring stuff. Take a victory lap, you fucking war criminal.

In 2025, 96 of the top 100 most-watched telecasts were sports. Nintey-two were football (84 NFL, eight college), two were World Series games, one was the men's college basketball title game and one was the Kentucky Derby. Big Dawg Sports Talk

In a 40-year career in sports media, I looked for stats that quantified sports' significance. The 96-of-top-100 2025 telecasts being sports is certainly one. My old example? Drive the length of I-81 in Va. It's a near-deathtrap EXCEPT the stretch into Blacksburg. Big Dawg Sports Talk
