Case Closed Smear Open
Federal investigators cleared Lee County Sheriff Carmine Marceno. The case is closed. No charges. No wrongdoing. End of story—or so you’d think.

Bot King Busted Again
Danesh “ThatDaneshGuy” Noshirvan told his 2 million TikTok followers that Dr. Ralph Garramone and Jennifer Couture’s holiday party was a total flop.

Danesh Noshirvan’s latest meltdown didn’t need a medical degree to diagnose, but we got one anyway.
