Scandalpalooza (scandal + lollapalooza)

“Scandalpalooza” (scandal + lollapalooza) is when a government has several scandals (sometimes called “-gates,” after the Watergate scandal). The word “scandalpalooza” has been cited in print since at least 1999.
 
“Scandalpalooza” (see #Scandalpalooza) was used on many conservative websites in May 2013 to describe the scandals in the presidential administration of Barack Obama.

Nevin Shapiro is not exactly your most trusted source of news, seeing as how his current address is the Graybar Hotel, where he’s doing a little vacay time for his involvement in a $900-million-and- change Ponzi scheme.
