KAMALA UP! TRUMP DOWN - September 13th, 2024

The government has officially shut down, closed for business, thanks to MAGA’s circus of incompetence. Hundreds of thousands of Americans are now facing lost paychecks, stalled services, and mounting uncertainty while Trump and his allies pretend this is somehow the Democrats’ fault. It’s not. Meanwhile, ICE is ramping up horrific arrests, and with Trump edging closer to full-on authoritarianism - deploying troops, silencing dissent, and pushing us toward a police state - the question isn’t just when will this end? It’s how much more can this country take? This episode is sponsored by Lean. If you want to lose meaningful weight at a healthy pace and keep it off... Add LEAN to your diet and exercise lifestyle.

We are just hours away from a government shutdown, and let’s be real, things are looking grim. Will Democrats hold the line or cave under pressure? Meanwhile, at today’s event in Quantico, Trump decided to stoke even more division by warning about a so-called “war from within.” What exactly does that mean? And why does MAGA seem so eager to pick fights with their own neighbors? Don is live to break it all down: the looming shutdown, Trump’s increasingly dangerous rhetoric, and what it all means for the future of this country. Buckle up...this sh*t is scary.

Jimmy Kimmel is back on the air with record-breaking ratings, and his return says a lot about power, fear, and the price of silence. When Disney yanked him after Trump’s FCC chair attacked, it wasn’t regulation that silenced him, it was corporate cowardice. But this time, the public pushed back with boycotts, outrage, and a reminder that free speech isn’t for sale. Don breaks down what Kimmel’s return teaches us about censorship as a choice, the failure of corporate media, and why courage, not appeasement, is what really sells. Learn more about your ad choices.

America is looking really embarrassing right now. Congress has just hours to avoid a shutdown, but MAGA is busy throwing tantrums instead of governing. Will Democrats hold the line, or fold under pressure? What does a shutdown actually mean for everyday Americans? Then we’ll break down Pete Hegseth’s cringey Quantico pep talk to the top generals, where he trotted out the same tired “anti-woke warrior” nonsense. 🙄 And finally, an update on the horrific weekend shootings. MAGA’s silence is deafening now that one of the shooters may have been a Trump supporter. This episode is brought to you by Hexclad.
