Bruce McArthur’s first known victim speaks out

Christine Jessop’s murder has finally been solved

Donnie’s impeachment trial: Oh, it is ON, baby.

The Scheer-Drumpf-Kochtopus connection, exposed.
Looks like Short Pants Andy has some ‘splainin’ to do: Anybody buy that? I don’t. Notice, too, that he mentions “volunteers from across the country”, NOT professional operatives from outside of the country? He’s a weaselly one, that one. Also, … Continue reading
