Apparently, this is what counts as a scandal now. Texas Congressman James Talarico is under fire after reports surfaced that he follows and occasionally likes posts from women with OnlyFans accounts. That’s it. No crimes. No corruption. No hypocrisy. Just… Instagram follows. Meanwhile, MAGA politicians have been caught in actual scandals, from hush money payments to sexual assault allegations, but somehow this is the story making headlines? Please. Don breaks down the absurdity of the so-called “controversy,” why it says more about our political media than about Talarico himself, and why maybe, just maybe, we could use a little perspective and a lot less fake outrage.
