In one of my favorite episodes of The Trews this season, our favorite Brit takes on Fox News’ coverage of the Germanwings plane crash. Russell Brand’s target in this episode was Fox’s Neil Cavuto. Brand plays clips of the Fox host trying to figure out why the pilot chose to crash the plane. And he interjects his funny […]

No matter who you voted for this year in the Democratic primaries, you truly owe it to yourself to watch this unbelievable video clip of Bernie Sanders. Modern politicians almost always stay far away from crowds of people who vehemently disagree with them or who strongly dislike them. But as we continue to see with Senator […]

Dear Conservatives…. Speaking as a lefty Liberal, I must finally admit the truth to you…you’ve been right all along about Obama invading and taking over Texas with martial law under the disguise of a so-called military operation called “Jade Helm 15.” I also have to say that it really was brilliant that you didn’t fall […]

I realize that for most rational minded people this will come as no surprise, but if we, as a nation, really want to reduce the number of teen pregnancies and STDs, the research overwhelmingly shows us that we must prepare our youth with fact based sex education. And yet, for some inexplicable reason, there are […]

And I have to say that with all of the bad news and heavy issues going on lately, it really was nice to see Obama in a relaxed, light-hearted setting. During the interview, Obama did address a few serious topics like […]

The White House says net neutrality is Trump’s next target. This is very bad news. Right now, Trump and the Republican Congress are pushing very hard to allow Internet service providers to charge websites and content providers more money for faster service.

Something wicked cool is happening in Boston right now. We are actually going to get to take a look into a time capsule that is over 220 years old. The capsule was originally placed in a corner stone in the Massachusetts state Capital building in 1795 by Paul Revere and Samuel Adams. This is actually […]

As the controversy intensifies about the Republican House Whip, Steve Scalise, who admittedly gave a speech in 2002 to a group of white supremacists, it seems that Fox News is not quite sure how to handle it. Fox spent most of Monday trying to convince their viewers that maybe Scalise was never even at the […]

OK, seriously, you have to see the video this guy made after getting a $50 ticket for not riding his bike in the bike lane. It’s not only super funny, but it’s also the best public service announcement EVER. And come on NYPD, there’s got to be more pressing matters to attend to then bikers […]
