Wow - excellent essay Reed. So well written. So on point. Your daughters are lucky to have a dad like you! And vice versa.

Mike Crispi sounds like the loon he clearly is. Wow. So, to sum up, two megastars in their respective worlds somehow meet up (which isn't really that unusual, because we tend to meet people who travel in the same circles as we do, and the same is no less true for pop culture figures/entertainers/sports stars) and decide that they like each other, and that's part of a plan on the part of a corporate league like the NFL (which is run by billionaires) to skew an election AGAINST Republicans? This coming from a party whose Orange leader refused--and still refuses--to accept the outcome of an election that he lost decisively? How far can this deranged cult of victimhood be taken?????

Absolute insanity............

This is great, I had never hear of the FU male. I wrote about another aspect of this spectacle yesterday, the FU male influencer Bobblehead Dolls - Shapiro, Posobiec and Kirk - pivoting from civil war to the threat of Taylor Swift.

Like you Nina, I had never heard of FU males. Took me awhile of saying it out loud to get the meaning. Duh, on my part.

This is what happens when you leave the "maga" cult home alone and unattended. The Freak Show comes to town.

Thank you, Reed. Beautifully written. I look forward to (Part 2).

The fact that Taylor triggers these maga snowflakes by...let's see here...going to football games to support her boyfriend honestly makes me like her even more.

Also. Lithium is the best XM channel and it's not even close.

Music is magic. In 1998, I took our three daughters to see the Spice Girls. It was epic. Ginger had just left the band and Scary Spice lost her top that night,

Thank you Reed. Great essay 🙏💜✨💫

Reed… this is superb writing and so spot on! The FU white guys being conned by the orange epitome of TFG is a new low in humanity. BTW there’s a bunch of equally stupid and appalling FU white women out there as well!!!! xx G

I’ve known way too many of these men. Spot on Reed, as usual! I’ve been a big Lincoln Project supporter and listener so I’m glad I found this Substack!

They seem truly happy and sweet....no wonder magas hate them. Happiness is out of their reach and they are jealous because deep down they realize it but they don't know why. They are blinded by hate.

We all know a version of this guy. I wish they’d look in the mirror and realize we think they are ridiculous. Do better, grow some. Stop being the problem. I fear they won’t.

The Trilateral Commission? You’re dating yourself. Does anyone under 50 catch the reference? 😆😆😆
