Insurrection Erection

John delves out a jumble of news stories as he struggles to keep up with the never ending dumpster fire of terror from King Trump.

Pres. Trump threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act and send the military to Minneapolis if the people of the city don’t stop resisting the wide-scale terror being inflicted by ICE.
Venezuelan opposition leader Corina Machado told reporters her gravel-sesh at the White House today included a presentation of her Nobel Prize to America’s Oldest Child-King.
While European leaders are begging Trump to NOT invade Greenland, a rare, unified coalition of middle east states including Israel and Turkey have begged Trump to NOT invade Greenland.

Then, he speaks with MICKEY HUFF who is the third director of Project Censored and is the president of the nonprofit Media Freedom Foundation. Huff joined Ithaca College in New York fall of 2024, where he now also serves as the Distinguished Director of the Park Center for Independent Media and Professor of Journalism. Since 2009, he has coedited the annual volume of the Censored book series. His most recent books include The Media and Me: A Guide to Critical Media Literacy for Young People , as well as Critical Media Literacy and United States of Distraction: Media Manipulation in Post-Truth America (and what we can do about it), both co-authored with Nolan Higdon.
