あらすじ・解説
- In this week's podcast, our quote of the week is from the French Economist Frederic Bastiat, who died in 1851. Bastiat discussed how political systems evolve to enrich politicians and their supporters. Not much has changed in 175 years.
- In the stupidest thing I've heard all week, I'll explain why people who are going ballistic over the six-person DOGE team being able to see their Social Security numbers but who also probably have no clue to how many other non-governmental organizations & people already have access to that same data.
- We'll tell you about the stunning drop in the number of southern border immigrant encounters that have taken place just 4 weeks into the Trump presidency. If you thought the number might have been around 50%, you guessed way too low.
- We'll tell you about the latest vehicle attack by another so-called "Asylum seeker," the third in just 6 weeks.
- We'll play a satirical clip of how Republicans and Democrats react when one of their friends tells them they have decided to switch their political party affiliation.
- We'll tell you what a study found regarding the levels of loneliness and unhappiness being experienced by liberal women.
- In our science minute, we'll discuss a stunning advancement in developing a sustained fusion reaction that could eventually lead to a new generation of radiation-free nuclear power plants.
- We'll play a funny clip of a woman asking President Trump to make the game of Lawn Darts legal again and why she feels it is essential to do so.
- Our taxpayer relief shot comes to us from Detroit, where a woman's brother shoots & kills her armed & violent ex-boyfriend who broke into her home.
