Drawing By Sophie Hei Tacit admission that he just makes shit up. And the reason that he makes shit up? So the people will talk about it. The people of this country do not need any more of the fake news that is coming out of the Trump/Vance campaign. And No, it is not ironic that the...

A lot of hay is being thrown up in the air over Kamala Harris's speech today. I figured that if we were going to talk about it, then we should at least watch the speech. Just a note, she does not come off as anything near what the partisan right would have you think.
