A One Finger Salute to Televangelist Jimmy Swaggart

A One Finger Salute to Televangelist Jimmy Swaggart

John talks about the death of sex scandal laden, hypocrite, televangelist Jimmy Swaggart who passed away at the age of 90. And he also discusses the Senate which passed the big bloated budget bill along to the House of Representatives after JD Vance cast a tie-breaking vote. Then, he talks with professor Corey Brettschneider and they unpack the Supreme Court's dramatic ruling that weakens nationwide injunctions—a critical blow to civil rights groups fighting executive overreach. They also highlight Justice Jackson’s powerful dissent and the broader implications for birthright citizenship and civil liberties. And, they discuss Trump's surreal yet chilling media spectacle at "Alligator Alcatraz," a staged visit to an alligator-themed detention facility symbolizing fascism with a smile. Next, he interviews Rob Shriver who is the Managing Director of the Civil Service Strong and Good Government Initiatives at Democracy Forward. And rounding it out - Comedy Daddy Keith Price returns to joke with John and listeners about the latest trending topics and the comedy of Donald Trump and his administration.
