Yea I love that one dumbass who went as far as to say she slandered the President. Last I checked if the statements are true its not slander.

lolololol Tom Ley I just adore you, pal
I liked that Dilbert guy better when he was full of wry insights like, “Did you ever notice that middle-management’s kinda dumb sometimes?”
The problem is that the Void is black. So you know Trump and the Dilbert shithead will do all they can to avoid it.
The appropriate ESPN response is “we will tell our employees to stop calling him a White Supremacist when he stops being a White Supremacist.”
Linda Cohn was suspended for criticizng her employer.
Hey Trump! Stick to politics.
They will not rest until a black woman loses her job for saying that the man gunning for her dislikes black people.
Here’s what the president was thinking about this morning:
Nobody is crying any tears for this poor, beleaguered white girl who was handed a music career based on her whiteness, while a few people tried to steer her away from the cultural appropriation she so needed to commit. Fuck her.
