A guy who thinks my entire state is a communist wasteland.’ Bold move, Gav. 🍋 Brian Glenn – The fashion cop of right-wing media, doubling down on his hard-hitting suit agenda while wearing whatever that is. 🍋 Markwayne Mullin – Oklahoma’s finest geography expert, who thinks Canada is just North Dakota with a fancier mayor. 🍋 Karoline Leavitt – Living proof that you can fail upward as long as you yell ‘fake news’ loud enough. 🍋 Sean Duffy – Blames DEI for plane crashes but somehow still trusts pilots who were hired under it to fly him home.
