Straight Outta Stone Ridge: The Fish Rots All the Way to the Tail

Local Republican candidate Paul Tuzzolino claims to be “fiercely independent.” However, given his party affiliation, and his chosen party’s fealty to the twice-impeached, four-times-indicted convicted rapist, and the variety of fierce independence his Republican cohorts display, we have a right to demand that he put a finer point on his self-congratulatory assertion.

Election 2024: Image World (3)

Whoever you are, dear reader, I guarantee you this: Depending on your age, you will see Trump’s Georgia mugshot hundreds and possibly thousands of times over the course of the rest of your life.
