Who we are

We are a satirical news site founded in 2026 and based out of El Paso, Tx. Our current focus is satire and think-pieces, and we are always open to expanding our content and audience. We enjoy critiquing modern society through exaggerated claims and fabricated tales; all of our content so far is satire unless stated otherwise.
