2020 hopeful Marianne Williamson spoke for just under nine minutes during last night’s Democratic presidential debate in Detroit–roughly half the airtime enjoyed by Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders–but she made the most of those nine minutes. By the end of the nearly three-hour debate, Williamson was the most-searched candidate of the evening, according to Google Trends, and managed to get in several memorable one-liners, including one about the failure of “this wonkiness” to combat “this dark psychic force of the...

Gay billionaire and Trump devotee Peter Thiel met up with FOX News’s resident homophobe Tucker Carlson last night to discuss one of the 58,740 things he believes himself to be an expert on: politics. During the sit down, 51-year-old Thiel, who offered a full-throated endorsement of Donald Trump in 2016, labeled Elizabeth Warren is the most “dangerous” of the 2020 Democratic candidates. “I’m most scared by Elizabeth Warren,” said the venture capitalist. “I think she’s the one who’s actually talking about the...

Pete Buttigieg sat down with Now This News for a lightning round of hard-hitting questions about a wide range of important issues, including his favorite curse word, whether hot dogs are sandwiches (spoiler: they’re not!), who would play him in a movie, his first job, his worst habit, his karaoke go-to song, and so much more. source

Pete Buttgieg completely won over the room during a town hall hosted by Chris Wallace on Fox News last night. Prior to Mayor Pete’s appearance, Donald Trump took to Twitter to slam the network for “wasting airtime” on the out gay candidate. Asked by Wallace about what he thinks of Trump’s tweets, Buttigieg simply responded: “I don’t care.” To which the audience responded with thunderous applause. “It is a very effective way to command the attention of the media,” he continued. “We...
