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:
Attorney General Pam Bondi had a full-blown meltdown that has gone completely viral, screaming about the stock market while dodging questions about Jeffrey Epstein.
Jim Jordan accidentally described January 6 as a crime, but he didn’t mean to, and we’re going to look at that all while trying to attack Democrats.
And meanwhile, Trump had one of the strangest public glitches yet, and rambled about windmills and tariffs and ended an event without taking a single question. He also accepted what is yet another completely bogus, imaginary, meaningless prize or award, and it leads really to a bigger conversation about how authoritarian leaders get used to being surrounded by flattery and fake accolades, and this only reinforces their authoritarianism.
Then, and this really is big. Republicans have broken with Trump on tariffs in a real vote. Not on a messaging difference. Not on a symbolic disagreement. They broke with Trump and they voted against the tariffs.
And later, we’re going to talk about the 180 that the manosphere has done and how it could be politically devastating in November.
All of it and more today.
