For some reason he's not actually "suspending" his campaign (which itself is a euphemism for "quitting") but Ben Carson has reportedly decided to become an ex-candidate. Ben Carson, the retired neurosurgeon who briefly led the Republican presidential race before his campaign began an extended public implosion, will tell his supporters ...

Joseph Sohm / Shutterstock.com We're going down the rabbit hole once again. The GOP frontrunner and presumptive nominee for the GOP nomination, Donald Trump, once again was caught quote-tweeting a white supremacist. This isn't a one-off instance. And quoting a guy who follows the US Fascist party. This is part of Trump's twitter ...

We're down to five passengers in the GOP clown car now: Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, John Kasich and Ben Carson. Carson's sleeping in the backseat, Kasich is sitting as far away from Trump as he can get, Rubio's installing the latest OS in his debating card, and Cruz ...

Tonight we have some creepy news about Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia's death, from the Washington Post. Apparently, when Scalia died he was vacationing with a secret society of elite super-rich "hunters." And we thought we saw conspiracy theories when reports of a pillow over his head came out. Just wait: ...

Glenn Beck obviously didn't expect Donald Trump to show up where he was speaking in Nevada last night, but that's what happened as the crowd started chanting "Trump Trump Trump" over Beck's speech pushing Ted Cruz. Here's video posted to Twitter of the Trumpenstein's latest bullying stunt. How laughably fitting, as ...

What if Ted Cruz and Ben Carson secretly went into a closet together and spent a half hour in there? I'm just askin'. Because this actually did happen.
