Transcript:
Something is very off in the United States right now. I think today’s episode makes that pretty clear.
There’s a new report saying that Donald Trump is privately terrified behind the scenes, even as he continues to project strength in public. And this is actually an important thing when you think about cult leaders, which we will discuss.
At the same time, Kash Patel, the FBI director, is reportedly regularly missing, often unable to be roused by staffers due to heavy drinking, and Kash says it’s all made up and that he’s going to be suing.
We then had another overnight meltdown from the president, dozens of posts, bizarre tangents, threats. Nobody is stepping in to take away grandpa’s keys.
And then it gets even stranger, as Joe Rogan is in the Oval Office and Donald Trump brags to him about being able to sign his name, and everybody in the room claps. That’s the point we find ourselves at now. The president asking for applause for signing his name, and the sycophants around him giving him that applause.
Plus, articles of impeachment filed against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
Every story today raises even bigger questions about what on earth is going on behind the scenes.
Don’t miss the full show with these stories and others, plus all of our analysis.
