But I love a modern funk band with a horn section

It's amazing what one can learn about people if you take 10 seconds to use Google. AOC has a net worth of less than $500,000. She's one of the "poorest" members of Congress.

FFS.

For reference, it's rumored that Nugent is worth $5M.

This is the first time Rob Schneider has ever been funny.

Schneider is going to be in town and I almost want to go so I can drop this one on him when one of his 50 trans jokes bombs

The fair circuit still exists!

These are the losers who can't even make money doing that anymore.

Has anyone found out what Jim Breuer thinks about modifying SALT deductions?

I take solace in the personal knowledge that Schneider’s hometown of Pacifica fucking hates him

Saw Eddie Money at the county fair in high school and people started booing and throwing beers he was so bad… the same treatment should follow these guys wherever they go

That’s insulting to those 70’s rock bands…at least they had talent and a vision and meant well…!

I'm starting to think we could program a Marxist AI, and the conservatives would just accept it as the unquestionable truth.

Your paydays may have dried up, but they haven’t really dried up until you’ve stuck your face in a camera and bitched about the wokes.

Rob Schneider is another has-been, “Catholic” convert who has only adopted the extreme fringe propaganda of the Looney Tunes contingent that Pope Francis never got around to ex-communicating but should have.

It's kinda like IROC was billed as a retirement plan for aging racecar drivers.

Is Rob Schneider (or Ted Nugent) getting paid to post braindead stuff about AOC?
It seems like MAGA for these guys (Schneider especially) gives them a defense for a career that has tanked

nathanielcgreen.bsky.social•4 days ago

Like, Schneider gets to tell himself that he's not getting work because of all the "wokeness" rather than because he sucks

If Bruce Springsteen is required to stick to singing then crazy ole Uncle Ted should stick to shooting guitars with flaming arrows and deafening the hillbilly militia set.
