This Trump supporting mom took time out of her schedule to lobby her local school board to let her kids use the term “ret*rd” This is going to be a long four years dealing with the emboldened assholes.

OUR HERO OF THE DAY IS... Mackenzie Scott, the ex-wife to Jeff Bezos. This week Elon Musk said Scott was destroying western civilization by donating hundreds of millions to women charities and causes. Her response, was to double her donations! Your thoughts?
