    Thanks to Republican primary voters' taste for the GOP's least electable candidates, Democrats are actually favored to keep control of the Senate, and the Supreme Court's gutting of Roe V. Wade has given Democrats the lead in generic House polls. We talk about all the ways Republicans have f*cked themselves heading into the midterms.

    It's Time For COVIDIOTS To Quarantine

    Liberals and Democrats have all along taken the coronavirus pandemic seriously, and we got made fun of for it, mocked for wearing masks in public, and called sheep for social distancing. Now the pandemic is virtually only killing the unvaccinated in mostly rural areas particularly in red states governed by COVIDIOTS who think somehow their masculinity, patriotism and freedom are being taken away when society tries to prevent people from dying needlessly of preventable viral infections. France is now mandating proof of vaccination or masks to go out into public places like theatres and diners, and Brain Milk thinks America should follow suit. Morons who feel culturally threatened by rational science and modern medical recommendations are prolonging the pandemic in America, and THEY'RE THE ONES who are taking away everyone else's freedom to go back to normal.
