The 2020 Presidential race continues to heat up with only a few more months until the general election between incumbent Donald Trump and Democratic nominee Joe Biden in November.

National polls show Trump trailing Biden by double digits, and even red state polls show the former Vice President with a narrow lead over the incumbent.


With Americans eagerly anticipating Biden's long-hyped vice presidential nomination, a former Republican Senator, Judd Gregg of New Hampshire, published an op-ed in The Hill detailing a conspiracy theory involving the so-called socialist wing of the Democratic party.

Gregg predicts that Biden will be pressured into choosing a vocally progressive vice presidential nominee, who will carry out the progressive agenda.

According to Gregg, the progressive agenda is:

"— Promoting and promulgating — not merely accepting — the massive protests that have occurred in some cities, even when they have led to lawlessness, looting, riots and declarations of autonomy.

— Searching out and destroying unbelievers in pursuit of a politically correct version of history, and doing so with a zeal that would have made Cotton Mather blush.

— Removing statues of historical figures that are deemed unacceptable based on today's parameters of social justice."
The plan—according to Gregg—comes after Biden wins the presidency with a progressive joining him on the ticket:
"They will not tolerate for long not being in total control. They will have their vice president, but not their president. And they are a very impatient people and movement.

Since their goal is power and their purpose pure, why should they wait?

The path to total control is clearly there once they have the vice presidency.

It is the 25th Amendment."

He goes on to predict that Progressive Democrats will topple Biden using the 25th amendment, which allows a President's cabinet to sideline the commander in chief if questions about his or her fitness for the office become unignorable.

People were baffled at the absurdity of Gregg's prediction.




They thought his evaluation of the progressive agenda was immensely misguided.




Biden has said he intends to announce his vice presidential pick in early August.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
