Metro Voice News Celebrating Faith, Family & Community
Although Jesus told his followers to love all people, they don’t necessarily have to like them. Fox News political pundits compiled a list of politicians and entertainers who were among the most annoying people of 2023.
Randi Weingarten. There is no individual more responsible for undermining American education than Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers. Back in April, the New York Times made a big deal about how former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo had called Weingarten “the most dangerous person in the world.”
Weingarten has been widely criticized for her stance on parental rights in a child’s education, saying, “Moms For Liberty has always been an extremist front designed to divide parents from educators while censoring honest history, bullying LGBTQ+ kids and sowing distrust in equitable public programs and community building initiatives.” In her latest, she claimed school choice “undermines democracy.”
Greta Thunberg. Thunberg’s trademark is telling people who disagree with her, “How dare you!” Her focus on climate issues continues, but in 2023 she shifted into high-gear leftism by siding against Israel in its war against Hamas terrorists.
This year, she started getting arrested at protests — a classic leftist move where she gets showered with attention and a slap on the wrist. She posted a group photo where she held a sign that said, “Stand With Gaza.” The Times of Israel reported she was “chanting ‘crush Zionism’” at a November pro-Palestinian rally in Sweden.

Late-night hosts. This gang of late-night, pseudo comedians, says Fox, includes Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Meyers and John Oliver. Oliver’s latest rant has him bashing Elon Musk. “The Daily Show” mocked Christmas as “the queerest holiday of all.” “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” called new Speaker of the House Mike Johnson “anti-gay, anti-choice, pro-conspiracy theory.” In other words, more unfunny leftist whining, says Fox.
All the president’s women. Harvard President Claudine Gay, MIT President Sally Kornbluth and former University of Pennsylvania President Liz Magill all made fools of themselves and reminded Americans that they are overpaying for college. When pressed about antisemitism on their pricey campuses, all three dodged the question. Although Magill already lost her job, the fact the other two have not is more important. They are walking, incoherently talking metaphors for the Marxist lunacy that dominates the higher education system.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Meghan Markle and her sidekick husband Prince Harry gained extra attention this year for annoying people on at least both sides of the pond. The coronation of King Charles III gave lots of media opportunities to two of the world’s most-annoying people. They freaked out in February when they became the butt of several jokes in “South Park.” The episode was called, “The Worldwide Privacy Tour” and mocked the wannabe princess and her husband for demanding attention and pretending they didn’t want it. Markle was reportedly “upset and overwhelmed” and allegedly “refuses to watch it all.”
