Empty Chairs, Empty Brains and Empty Vaults: A Tragedy in Three Parts
A little remembrance. A little outrage. A lot of WTF. And a growing suspicion that Fort Knox may have become Fort Knocked Off. 😂

What happens when you look back at COVID and think, “Honestly, not that bad?” Remember when a tan suit was considered a scandal? Yeah. We’d like those problems back, please. Everything is fine. 🙃

🤯 OH, HAIR NO!
Trump's new wig. Fauci pleads the Fifth. Texas politics heats up. And suddenly today's "socialism" starts sounding a lot like FDR & LBJ.

"He had explosive diarrhea coming out of his Whatever." What a speech, eh? In a week where death becomes her, as in Lindsey "Lady G" Graham, the FBI scrambles to metaphorically (or literally) delete his browsing history.

Father's Day! America's biggest dad joke is in the WH with pet projects peeling away like the skin on his hands and the reflecting pool paint. Ted Cruz explains masculinity, and James Talarico explains Ted Cruz.

Dive into the reflecting pool of politics, sports, Swifties, and trillionaires who shouldn't exist. Mexico might shock at the half-filled World Cup and those folks at the White House can all UFC themselves! #ROL

Colbert’s out, POTUS spirals, MAGAs are feelin' the groceries. Plus revisiting civil rights. Is it Paxton vs. Talarico 👀? GOP panics. ICE tactics just like old oppression.

We rant about AI Jesus, market manipulation vibes, regretful voters, and why Florida still hasn’t decided if cousins can marry.
Basically: hot air, cold shoulders, and we all need a cocktail. 🍸

Chocolate bunnies & Peeps escalate into Epstein, gas prices, and global tensions. Things feel empty like a hollow chocolate Easter bunny as sweet treats turn to sour reality. But is there any other way?

Good Friday, you hot messes. 🙃 POTUS celebrates the end of Women's month by firing two of them, plus the secret double life of a cross-dressing Noem, and it's wham Pam, no thank you, ma'am. Happy Easter to you, sinners. 🐣 #ROL #RantingOutLoud rantingoutloud.com

Producer Mike's hoarse, Chuck Norris is dead, Barbara needs a hairbrush, and megachurches are a grift. Lee & Chadrick also ask the real question: is YOUR zip code safe enough for a rainbow flag? Mississippi says no. 🎧 #ROL #RantingOutLoud rantingoutloud.com
