The more Magas are being asked to speak on the US attacking Iran, the deeper they dig their hole of excuses. Florida Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna has been front and center speaking to the conflict. Magas might want to reconsider that strategy. First, Paulina Luna stumbled through an explanation on why the US is NOT […]

2 March 2026 @ 4:20 pm
Magas are often accused of being part of a cult. TV appearances like this one, by South Carolina Congresswoman Nancy Mace, are a big reason why. Mace went on Newsmax (the only network to the right of Fox News) to discuss the soldiers the US have lost due to the strikes in Iran. She had […]

Lewis Goodall just brutally owned Priti Patel over her claims of ‘sectarian voting’ and it’s a simply magnificent watch
2 March 2026 @ 3:46 pm
To the studios of LBC, where one-time Tory leadership wannabe turned shadow cabinet minister Priti Patel has still got the hump over last week’s Gorton and Denton by-election. The Green party’s historic victory was bad news for Keir Starmer but even worse for Kemi Badenoch’s Tories, who contrived to do so badly they lost their […]
