AP Photo/Andrew Harnik Years ago, when I was at the head of a group called Misfit Politics, I decided I wanted to release a cartoon in the same vein as South Park called “Merica.” The idea was to center around the then Obama administration, mainly focusing on Barack, Michelle, and Joe Biden, and with other characters including George Soros and an unnamed “Agent” to be the American every-man.
While he had released shorts that mainly centered around Michelle , I wanted to move the toons into a more serialized territory with a cast of characters and an ever-developing world. As the gun-control push from the Obama admin reached its zenith and Biden was put in charge to lead the task force in real-life America, I wrote the first script for my world, “Merica.” While the entire cast of characters was there, I wanted one of the main focuses to be Biden.
I did that because, to me, it appeared that while I could make caricatures out of the real-life Obamas, Biden already seemed to be a cartoon character without help. His instructions to his wife to walk outside with a shotgun and fire two blasts into the air to scare away any intruders that came into the home seemed so ridiculous that it bordered on being an SNL skit.
While I wrote all the characters to have their ridiculous traits highlighted, a lot of Biden’s weirdness were things he had actually said or did. Even the character “Mouse” was based on Delaware NAACP president Richard “Mouse” Smith Biden, who called out during a speech one time with unintentional hilarity, causing me to make “Mouse” into a secondary character, but an actual mouse that Biden seems to have an attachment to and is more than it seems.
When I was writing Biden’s character, I was sure to make him look like the guy who failed upward. His real-life counterpart seemed to be a man of ignorant convictions and I turned that up to 11 in Merica. For what was deemed “The Gun Control Saga,” I put Biden into a position of having fallen into […]

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
