Trump goes TOTAL PSYCHO in BONKERS interview

In his interview with Laura Ingraham, Donald Trump suggested a replica of the Declaration of Independence was the original, and Ingraham seemed to believe it. He made odd remarks about gold, falsely claimed he won in 2020 by a landslide, and boasted about his economic record. Dismissing recession concerns, he insisted the U.S. would have its strongest economy ever under his leadership.

OH NO: Trump Press Secy BRUTALLY fact-checked AGAIN

Karoline Leavitt, Donald Trump’s press secretary, is struggling to defend his administration amid constant fact-checks. She has misrepresented a judge’s appointment history and falsely claimed Trump could fire FTC commissioners. Her responses reflect a broader strategy of portraying Trump as upholding the Constitution while undermining the rule of law.

From yesterday’s show:

Trump gets BRUTAL warning from Supreme Court

Chief Justice John Roberts warned that impeachment isn’t a valid response to rulings, after Trump demanded a judge’s removal for blocking his deportation plan. While aimed at defending judicial authority, the Supreme Court itself empowered Trump by expanding executive power. Now, as Trump defies court rulings, the justices face a crisis of enforcement, realizing they may have weakened their own authority.

From yesterday’s show:

Elon FURIOUS that people are being mean to him

Elon Musk’s Fox News interview showed him as a billionaire with a victim complex, blaming a conspiracy for criticism. He insisted he’s only done “good things” while ignoring his own controversies. Musk also hyped his Mars ambitions, though the segment highlighted its impracticality. The interview reinforced concerns about his political influence and self-pitying narrative.
