The US goobermint is a gigantic load of qua-qua.

(n.b. in Español, 'qu' is pronounced as 'k', notes your Panamanian correspondent...)

I should explain:

Fox & Friends qua news source is failing fast.

If you remove the hi-jinks, the ads, and the nonsense out of the 3 hour Fox & Friends program, you have only about 5 minutes of headlines and minimal explanation left.

Qua

A noun, a qua is water. Those years of watching the Three Stooges weren’t wasted.
