    Merge All of the Liberal TikTok Wine Moms into One, and You Get Sunny Hostin. (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    I have always thought that the average progressive was, for lack of a better phrase, “Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs!” The first indication was their incessant desire to defend and protect, and even learn the names of illegal criminal aliens, while ignoring and not even knowing the names of Americans killed by illegal aliens.
