Welcome back and Happy New Year's, y'all! 

To kick off 2021, we have a story that will more than likely set the tone for 2022. While he hasn't run for office yet, pillow "genius" Mike Lindell appears to be all set to make his first political campaign for governor of Minnesota. And Mike just happens to be amongst a whole pack of Trumpists ready to make their move in the upcoming midterms.

Hey, y'all! Welcome back to the final installment of the tale of one Lt. Col. Bo Gritz.

The man has already had one bonkers bit of a life. Supposedly Rambo is based on him. He's invaded Laos more times than 95% of the nations on Earth. And he sort of ran for Vice President whilst diving super hard into every conspiracy theory possible and getting real into Christian Identity (aka Oops! All White Supremacy!).

So what could possibly be left but for Bo to take a chance at running for freaking President?
