MADISON, Wis. — Van Orden has had quite the head-spinning week as evidenced by his 122 tweets. From incoherent attempts at disses to lying about saving BagderCare again , you can find all the highlights (or lowlights) of Van Orden’s online presence this past week below. DVO’S DADDY OF THE WEEK: Stephen Colbert Stephen Colbert’s show ended last week, and Van Orden, of course, had to get in on the discourse. It is widely believed that CBS cut Colbert’s show because they were afraid of getting sued by Trump which is definitely a good thing for free speech am I right?  Van Orden is also clutching his pearls about Colbert’s vaccine sketch, which reminds us of this tweet. But seriously, as we wrote about last week, Van Orden is a part of the exact same crowd that has been crying about cancel culture for the last 10 years, but he seems to be fine with

Douglas Baldridge appeared in Los Angeles federal court to oppose Las Vegas performer Maren Wade’s injunction bid. Wade, who puts on a cabaret show called “Confessions of a Showgirl,” alleges Swift’s latest No. 1 album infringes her intellectual property and wants to block The Life of a Showgirl merch sales until the litigation is fully resolved.
