East Sixth Street in downtown Austin is called "Dirty Sixth" for a reason. Once again, there was a shooting on Sixth Street. At what point does the violence drive away tourists and drunken knuckleheads?

Unless you're Ukrainian, please stop writing poems about Ukraine. People like AnnaLynne McCord and Bono don't need to be writing poems. And they definitely don't need to be read by Nancy Pelosi. Disney World met the sweethearts of beautiful Port Neches-Grove High School and quickly regretted it. Wait until you hear their school chant.

In a new poll, Donald Trump is beating Joe Biden by 43 points…among unvaccinated voters. Can't wait for those thoughtful debates.

The NFL has no moral compass. The Deshaun Watson controversy is the perfect example of that. Stop calling him a rapist and accept the slimy reality.

Once again, our politicians think they have solved all the world's problems by fixing something no one was complaining about. Marco Rubio might make Daylight Savings Time permanent, getting rid of our annual time change. Who freaking cares?

Monica Lewinsky never recovered from her scandal. She became a public leper. Yet somehow Mike Tyson remains marketable and is currently marketing his new weed gummies. The timing of Tom Brady's un-retirement is pretty remarkable. And casinos are pissed.

We're living on a cultural faultline. Americans are moving to areas that aline with their political views. Blue counties are becoming bluer and red counties are becoming redder. There will not be any middle ground.

There's a reason Donald Trump always mispronounces "China." According to QAnon, it's a secret code that directs people to a bio lab in Ukraine. A bio lab run by Dr. Anthony Fauci, where he created the COVID-19 virus. A giant QR code in the Austin skyline is pretty cool, kinda scary and freaking genius. It's the latest marketing stunt from the South by Southwest conference to promote Halo. Thanks t...

Russian prosecutors have issued warnings to Western companies in Russia, including McDonald's and Coca-Cola, threatening to arrest corporate leaders who criticize the government. Where else do you hear jail the executives? We just can't leave Rudy Giuliani at the nursing home. He's now been linked to a Russian oligarch who has been indicted in connection with illegal political donations. Thanks to...

The original "Red Dawn" film is full of testosterone and shows Americans standing their ground and fighting for their country against Soviet invaders. But would citizens really stay and fight? A new poll from Quinnipiac University says otherwise.

NFL owners are thrilled that Tom Brady has come out of retirement but Brady has been deemed a "competition addict." He isn't wired to be content. Here's a Jeff Ward taxpayer stadium rant. Why would you give money to a billionaire for a stadium that will give you nothing in return?

Donald Trump is a modern-day Mozart, according to him. He claims to have an excellent aptitude for music and he champions the classics, like Village People's "Y.M.C.A." and Sam & Dave's "Hold On, I'm Comin'." Russia has blocked all access to Facebook and deemed Meta an "extremist organization." The company claims that this goes to show that social media is bad for dictators. But is it really bad o...

Greg Abbott and Ron DeSantis are facing backlash for their anti-LGBTQ legislation. They're making noise about issues that no one is complaining about.

The Russians are stealing everything and now they've gone too far. They've stolen Peppa Pig. And Prime Minister Boris Johnson ranted about it in a speech after losing his notes.

Donald Trump was interviewed on the "Full Send Podcast," a bro media podcast that's perfect for him. Trump did what he does and touted fake numbers in economics.

A woman recently came forward claiming Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is her father and she's suing him for hiding his paternity. She claims the lawsuit isn't about the money; she just wants to have a dad. But what does she really want? According to a new survey, Austin is the happiest place in Texas.
