I can't decide if this is irony or karma...

Coal magnate Robert Murray, outspoken miner who battled EPA, dies at 80 of lung disorder
Robert Murray, a fourth-generation coal miner who became one of the embattled industry’s most outspoken advocates, has died. He was 80.

Murray died early Sunday morning at his home in St. Clairsville, Ohio, of a lung disorder, according to Michael Shaheen, the family’s lawyer. He was diagnosed in 2016 with coal workers’ pneumoconiosis, or black lung disease, and had been known to attend industry events with a portable oxygen container.

Upon initial glance I thought that was a U.S. Air Force photo because that's exactly what staff meetings look like most of the time.

Kellyanne Conway's daughter auditioned for American Idol last night, and before the audition, they put Claudia in a room to see a pre-recorded message from her mother, where she stated, in part, "Remember honey, winners are people that are willing to lose."

That's really sad how they're exploiting her. It's not going to end well. ABC getting slammed this morning and rightfully so.

A "reprehensible" view for these people would be that the Proud Boys aren;t the cream of American masculinity.

Obvious answer is that it's someone who King Donald doesn't like.

Need a ruling.

Pickup truck in front of me with 4 stickers.

1 - Blue Lives Matter
2 - Batman, a vigilante who took justice into his own hands because of a mostly corrupt police force
3 - Star wars, where a whole movement bucks the powers that be for their policies and heavy handed approach to galaxy building
4 - Mandalorian, a bounty hunter who works well outside the bounds of normal law enforcement
You know what you need? A lyrical sucker punch to the face.
