    Corrupt piece of shit should have died at the end of a long prison sentence, but money trumps justice in far too many cases.

    May his grave long become the public toilet it truly deserves to be.

    I don’t like to celebrate someone’s death, but let’s just say I don’t think a lot of tears will be shed.

      There will be mixed feelings at The Bugle. Mostly because now he definitely won’t produce any more material to satirize. Maybe some listeners will write in asking if Berlusconi gets a fuckeulogy (probably not, because not a terrible enough human).

    Somehow managed to stay within the political circus until the bitter end. I wish I could say this was the end of an era, but there’s a whole new generation of clowns ready to fill his oversized shoes.

        Meloni belongs to the party Fratelli d’Italia (Brothers of Italy), which is the direct successor to MSI - they even use the same logo. MSI was the openly neo-fascist successor to the National Fascist Party, the party of Mussolini. Half its ministers are former MSI members, meaning that they are (or were, a few years ago) openly fascist. Let’s just say it’s not a good look.
