Here’s what we’re talking about today.
This is a quick rundown of the topics we’ll be covering on today’s show. You can hit play to listen, or read the transcript below if that’s more your style.
Transcript:
US Olympians are openly criticizing Donald Trump while literally wearing the American flag, and it blows up the MAGA narrative that opposing Trump is somehow un-American. It’s not. We will talk about it.
And then the cultural dominance of MAGA is quickly collapsing from the Trump dance being everywhere to Trump skipping the Super Bowl, very likely, because he would have gotten brutally booed on live television.
We are in the middle of a real culture shift that I want to talk about, and it is happening much faster than people expected.
We are also going to look at a complicated explanation to the posting and then subsequent removal of a racist video of the Obamas to Donald Trump’s Truth Social. The video is bad enough, but the story around when it was put up, when it was taken down, who did it, what the different explanations were, is probably far more interesting.
And we will also see some stunning inside reporting about the behavior that is taking place in the White House, with Republicans openly saying they are now worried that the Senate is in play and that they may lose it, which wouldn’t that be a lovely little story to wake up to the first, I guess, Wednesday, in this forthcoming November.
All of that and more. Stay with us today, because it’s actually a show we should record and keep, rather than record and immediately delete.
Don’t miss the full show with these stories and others, plus all of our analysis.
