32. Why investigate 'Widespread twerking'? Pick one or more:
Thu Feb 12, 2026, 03:54 PM
Feb 2026

A) Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) is REALLY afraid he will lose in Nov. and is desperate to look like a fierce defender of white patriarchal morality while ignoring you-know-what.

B) GOP more concerned about impact of happy US citizens on an island dancing and enjoying life than Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction on young children and dirty older white guys than they are about you-know-what.

C) El Guapo de los Pedófilas* is giving donuts for the most novel distractions from you-know-what

*I apologize for probably getting that wrong, but my Spanish is very limited & some words didn't get taught in high school.

Anyhoo, today's chant is:

"EPESTEIN FILES EPESTEIN FILES
Fire Bondi and get some indictments of abusers in the EPESTEIN FILES!"
