Things are getting wild in Washington! This week, we break down Trump’s latest hustle—selling Teslers from the White House lawn (seriously, what’s next, a Cybertruck giveaway?). Meanwhile, Elon Musk is down bad, losing billions as Tesla faces protests and the #TeslaTakedown movement spreads.
But that’s just the beginning. Town halls across America are turning into war zones, with Chuck Edwards’ North Carolina district leading the charge against Republican leadership. The people are mad, and they haven’t even felt the real economic pain yet.
And just when Democrats had the perfect moment to capitalize on GOP chaos… they fumbled. Again. We dive into the government spending bill disaster, why Chuck Schumer’s taking heat from his own party, and whether AOC could be gearing up for a major primary challenge.
Strap in—this episode is packed with political gems, hilarious takes, and the raw truth about where things stand in 2025. Don’t miss it!
