Billy Ray Cyrus was recently outed as an absolute nutsack in a leaked recording where he berates his estranged wife, Firerose, and called Miley Cyrus a “skank” just to make sure the trash levels were at maximum capacity. You’d have to be an idiot to get near the guy right now, so naturally, Trump gave him a shoutout at a Bitcoin conference in Nashville on Saturday night. “Billy Ray Cyrus is here. Where is Billy Ray? He’s around here someplace, and he’s great. He’s a conservative guy. I said, ‘How did you get such a liberal daughter?’ How had that happened, Billy Ray?’” So now Republicans are trashing Taylor Swift, the Olympics, and Miley Cyrus? Incredible strategy. Keep it up.

With July almost over, it’s time for the mid-year check-in for Cannonball Read 16’s Sixteen Sweet Books Challenge. It’s a low-key, self-directed challenge to read and review between 1 and 16 books from new authors and binge-worthy series. Have you found a new favorite author this year? (Cannonball Read 16)
I missed Lainey’s late-night call to fill in for Saturday’s P-Love, so allow me to make up for it with some extremely rare “Mike actually posts cute animals” action.
