Where does Tommy Tuberville live? Florida or Alabama? If he wants to run for Alabama governor, he needs to put this issue to bed. Release your state tax returns and show us, Senator — if you can.

Paul Finebaum received a text message asking whether he would like to trade one life for another.

Tommy Tuberville says things George Wallace wouldn’t have. There’s no code language to decipher. He puts the hate on a plate.

Apple CEO Tim Cook used to quote MLK and fight for human rights. Today he dines at the White House with MBS, who ordered the death of a journalist. What happened to you, Tim?

I don’t know what you did to deserve this, America, but Tommy Tuberville might be about to sue you.

It’s almost like this whole shutdown thing was some kind of stalling tactic.

Alabama Sen. Tommy Tuberville has said a lot of ridiculous things. After Zohran Mamdani won in NYC, it got worse.

The people who voted for Zohran Mamdani and the folks who raged over “woke” Cracker Barrel have more in common than you may think. Let me explain.

That’s not just a White House demolition. That’s Southern-style middle-finger politics in action.

The Mamdani Effect? Alabama’s top election official wants to ban naturalized citizens from running for state office.

Remember when the GOP backed voting rights? It happened. And not so long ago. One picture shows how far things have regressed.
