Alright yâall, letâs set the record straightâbecause this week, the nonsense levels are off the charts.
First up, the deployment of 4,000 National Guard troops and 700 Marines to Los Angeles isnât about law and orderâitâs theater. Thatâs right, weâre talking big-budget political cosplay, complete with dramatic speeches, unnecessary uniforms, and absolutely zero solutions.
Then, we dive into our toxic relationship with Governor Gavin Newsom. How can one man be so wrong and so right at the same time?!?
Meanwhile, more than 340 National Institutes of Health employees and former staffers are accusing the Trump administration of dismantling the agencyâs core research workâbecause apparently, science is just another thing they donât believe in.
And in the latest episode of "How Many Bad Decisions Can One Administration Make?", Health Secretary RFK Jr. has fired all 17 members of the CDCâs vaccine advisory panel. Because when faced with expertise, this administrationâs first instinct is to get rid of it.
Finally, how wrong does someone have to be when even the White House wonât let Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth hire them? Thatâs rightâwhen this administration thinks youâre too reckless, you might need to re-evaluate your life choices.
Tune in for all the facts, frustration, and well-earned side-eyeâbecause this mess isnât going to unpack itself.

This week on Something Ainât Right, we take a deep dive into the latest batch of "Wait, what?!" headlines, starting with the month-old city of Starbase, TexasâElon Muskâs personal sci-fi experiment, home to SpaceX, and now the site of a zoning ordinance that could strip residents of their property rights. Because nothing says "Welcome to the Future" like a billionaire casually rewriting land laws.
Then, in a plot twist no one saw coming, the Talibanâyes, that Talibanâhas slammed Trumpâs executive orders for being too oppressive. Thatâs right, the group known for banning music, education, and basic human rights is now calling out Trump for imposing restrictions on people. When they think your policies are too harsh, it might be time for some self-reflection.
Meanwhile, the Proud Boys are suing the United States for $100 million in restitution. Because apparently, attempting to overthrow the government now comes with a cash prize? We just wonder if Attorney General Pam Bondi will Venmo the fascists directly or make them wait for a check.
And in her never-ending quest to be the worst person, Representative Mary Miller (R-IL)âwho once said "Hitler was right about one thing"âis now losing it on social media over a Muslim speaking in Congress. Because nothing says "totally normal behavior" like publicly melting down over religious diversity in a country founded on religious freedom.
Finally, something seems really wrong when a federal prosecutor resigns over concerns that the DOJ was pursuing a criminal case against Kilmar Abrego Garcia for political reasons. When even the people inside the system are waving red flags, you know weâve entered deeply unsettling territory.
If it makes you pause, shake your head, or scream into the void, it belongs on Something Ainât Right. Tune inâweâll unpack the nonsense so you donât have to.

This week on The Final Word, Frangela takes a deep dive into the latest wave of fiscal irresponsibility, bureaucratic nonsense, and barely concealed discriminationânow available in convenient executive order form!
First up, the Congressional Budget Office projected that Trump's Big Beautiful Billâą will lead to $3.7 trillion in lost revenue and a $2.4 trillion increase in the deficit. So, naturally, we ask: Where did all the GOP budget hawks go? Oh right, theyâre busy pretending math doesnât exist.
Meanwhile, Marjorie Taylor Greene added her name to the growing list of GOP representatives who didnât read the spending bill before voting on it. Youâd think reading a bill before passing it would be basic governance, but apparently, itâs just another pesky suggestionâlike ethics and facts.
Then, Trump decided that the tariffs on steel and aluminum imports werenât punishing enough, so heâs doubling downâliterally. The rates from March? More than doubled. Because why just disrupt trade when you can obliterate it?
And in yet another attack on reproductive rights, the Trump administration revoked federal guidance requiring hospitals to provide emergency abortions to stabilize patients in life-threatening conditions. Because apparently, medical ethics now depend on political talking points.
Finally, Trump signed a travel ban targeting 12 countries with no demonstrable risk to U.S. securityâother than the inconvenient fact that they contain too many Black people and Muslims for his liking. Which, shockingly, is not a valid national security concern.
All this and more on The Final Word, where Frangela breaks down the chaos, the corruption, and the deeply unnecessary nonsense so you donât have to.

This week on Something Ainât Right, we wade into the latest Broadway drama starring the legendary Patti LuPone, who may have finally found the one thing powerful enough to make her apologize: 500 other Broadway stars. When divas collide, even the unshakable must blink.
But thatâs just the warm-up act, because next, we tackle a story that is so fundamentally wrong it feels ripped from a dystopian novel. Kansas law is forcing women to sue to uphold their end-of-life wishesâbecause if the patient is pregnant, those wishes are disregarded entirely. Yes, even if she is legally declared brain-dead, her body is still treated as nothing more than an incubator for a fetusâregardless of viability, consent, or basic human dignity.
This isnât just unethicalâitâs medieval. And if this doesnât trigger a full-body side-eye, nothing will.
And just when you thought it couldnât get more surreal, RFK Jr.âs Department of Health and Human Services has been caught citing studies that do not exist in his "MAHA" report. Thatâs rightâgovernment health policy is now being backed by fictional science. Because when it comes to public health, who needs evidence?
When reality stops making sense, starts sounding insane, and forces us to ask, how did we get here?, you know it belongs on Something Ainât Right. Tune inâweâll bring the judgment.

This week on The Final Word, we explore the latest reason to love TACOsânot the delicious kind, but the investor shorthand for Trump Always Chickens Out. Whether itâs trade wars or policy stances, TACOs are always on the menu.
Meanwhile, Elon Musk is reportedly disappointed in the GOP spending bill, claiming it inflates the deficit and undermines the work of the DOGE team. Which raises two important questions: Is this Muskâs please-like-me-again tour, and does he really think DOGE does work?
Then, in the further monetization of the Executive Branch, Trump unleashes a wave of politically convenient pardons, including Todd and Julie Chrisley and a floating offer to two men convicted of plotting to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer. Who says money can't buy happiness? Well, it can buy freedom in Trumpâs America.
And if you werenât already worried about RFK Jr. running the Department of Health and Human Services, buckle up. Heâs now hinting at banning government scientists from publishing in top medical journals. Science? Who needs it!
We digest the absurdity so you donât have to on The Final Word.

This week on Something Ainât Right, we dive into the kind of news that makes you question reality. First up, can one really âdistanceâ themselves from the hiring of undocumented workers when youâre Kid Rockâa Trump-loving, flag-waving, anti-âillegalsâ crusader? Spoiler alert: Not easily.
Next, we check in on the ongoing Diddy trial. Because, yes, there are still six more weeks of this madness to go, and each new development somehow manages to be more disturbing than the last.
Then, we sift through the bizarre contents of the GOPâs latest tax bill, which includes gun silencers, tanning beds, andâoh yeahâa little provision that would essentially make Trump a king. Because nothing says âfiscal responsibilityâ like inserting constitutional loopholes between deductions.
And finally, in dystopian tech news, an Amazon-backed AI model has allegedly started dabbling in blackmailâthreatening engineers who tried to shut it down. Thatâs right, AI has officially entered the âextortionâ phase of its evolution, and we are way past the comforting era of Roombas bumping into furniture.
If it makes you pause, shake your head, or demand a strong side-eye, it belongs on Something Ainât Right. Tune inâweâll unpack the nonsense so you donât have to.

Hard-Headed America, Policy Whiplash, and Oval Office NonsenseâThe Week in Chaos
This week on The Final Word, we gather more undeniable evidence that Americansâbless their heartsâare hard-headed. Case in point: House Republicans narrowly passed their "Big, Beautiful..." tax plan, which, in classic form, translates to big, beautiful giveaways for the rich at the expense of everyone else. Proving, once again, that there is no low too low for this MAGA-fied GOP.
Meanwhile, the Trump Justice Department decided to mark the anniversaries of police brutality killings in Minneapolis and Louisville with an especially bold insult: moving to dismiss the very police reform agreements created in response. Because nothing says justice quite like deliberately unraveling accountability.
And world leadersâbless their heartsâkeep strolling into the Oval Office like thereâs any possibility of a rational conversation. This weekâs guest, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, was treated to a Trump monologue pushing false claims of âgenocideâ against White Afrikaner farmers. Thatâs rightâanother Oval Office meeting, another alternate reality.
Speaking of chaos, the Justice Department is charging Representative LaMonica McIver with assaulting federal law enforcement officers during a confrontation outside a Newark ICE facility. Meanwhile, Homeland Security Secretary and known cosplay enthusiast Kristi Noem took to the mic to proudly mis-define âhabeas corpusâ as a constitutional right for the president to kick people out of the country. Itâs not. But points for confidence?
We digest the madness so you donât have to on The Final Word.

This week on Something Ainât Right, we cast a serious side-eye at the nonsense flooding the news cycle, starting with Trumpâs latest vendetta against⊠Taylor Swift, Bruce Springsteen, and Walmart. Thatâs rightâafter a weekend of attacking celebrity appearances like a high-school mean girl, heâs now bullying big-box stores. Look out, Target, you could be next.
Meanwhile, the Department of Homeland Security is taking a break from helping Secretary Kristi Noem (better known as ICE Barbie) live out her military cosplay dreams to consider a reality show pitch. The American, brought to you by writer and producer Rob Worsoff, would pit immigrants against each other in a competition for fast-track citizenship. Yes, we have officially reached the dystopian stage where immigration policy is being developed as primetime television.
And in legislative nonsense news, Texas Republicans are trying to ban ânon-human behaviorâ in schools. Thatâs rightâtheyâre coming for dress-up days. Because apparently, children pretending to be animals for fun is the real problem.
Finally, Montana has become the first state in the U.S. to legally sanction itself as a playground for experimental medical treatments. Because nothing screams âthis will end wellâ like throwing regulations out the window and hoping for the best.
If it seems wrong, doesnât make sense, and demands a full-body cringe, it belongs on Something Ainât Right. Tune in for all the chaos, all the absurdity, and all the judgment.

This week on Idiot of the Week, we once again ask the age-old question: Are humans actually intelligent animals? Or is that deeply unfair to animals?
First up, we have the woman who may have shared a meth pipe with her pet raccoon. Because when looking for responsible choices in life, âpassing narcotics to a wild animalâ isâŠnot it.
Then, thereâs a California city facing an existential crisis: too many peacocks. How many is too many? Well, when your streets look like a scene from Jurassic Park: Feathered Edition, itâs safe to say youâve lost control.
Meanwhile, in Florida (of course), someone thought releasing a kangaroo into St. Cloud was a great idea. Because nothing screams âlocal wildlifeâ like an Australian marsupial hopping through town.
And finally, we have the tourist who decided taking a selfie with a crocodile was worth the risk. Spoiler alert: it was not.
Who will take home the coveted title of Idiot of the Week? Tune in for mockery, judgment, and the growing concern that maybe humans really arenât the top of the intelligence hierarchy after all.

Tonight on The Final Word, we break down the latest in the ongoing saga of Trump-world chaos, starting with a major shift: Trump has blinked first in the trade war with China. Why? Because, by his own admission, the tariffs were hurting "Trump's people"âwhich apparently took him entirely by surprise.
Meanwhile, despite economic turmoil, Trump still plans to accept a $400 million luxury jet from Qatar, with an estimated billion-dollar price tag to convert it into Air Force One. Just a casual gift for a sitting presidentânothing to see here.
Speaking of jaw-dropping financial claims, Trump boasts that Saudi Arabia pledged $600 billion in investment during his Middle East tripâexcept the White House only released details for $283 billion. Either someone misplaced a few hundred billion dollars, or we have some creative accounting going on.
And then thereâs the latest in the Trump crypto experiment: a Chinese tech company, with no revenue and just eight employees, is planning to buy $300 million worth of Trumpâs $TRUMP coin. Because nothing says financial legitimacy like an untraceable digital currency linked to a man who has never met a conflict of interest he didnât like.
Shockingly, House Speaker Mike Johnson supports banning members of Congress from trading individual stocks to reduce the "appearance of impropriety." But Trump accepting a $400 million private jet from Qatar? Apparently, thatâs just fine.
Meanwhile, the administration has fast-tracked entry for 17 relatives of Sinaloa cartel leader Ovidio GuzmĂĄn LĂłpez and conveniently expedited refugee status for white Afrikaners, yet continues to turn its back on immigrants fleeing violence elsewhere. The hypocrisy couldnât be clearer.
And finally, the Supreme Court now faces a staggering question: Can Trump legally end birthright citizenship? As authoritarian impulses collide with constitutional rights, the stakes for American democracy have never been higher.
All that and more on The Final Word, where we unpack the corruption, the hypocrisy, and the crises shaping the nation.

This week on Something Ainât Right, we donât sugarcoat, and we donât look away. Buckle up, because weâre taking a hard look at the deeply unsettling trends that demand accountability.
First, Ye (formerly Kanye West) has leaned all the way into Nazi aspirations with the release of his new song, Heil Hitler. If it feels like weâve hit some kind of historical rock bottom, itâs because we have.
Then, we confront allegations of sexual assault against Shannon Sharpe and the disturbing charges against Sean Combs (Diddy), including racketeering, sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, and transporting individuals for prostitution. The sheer scale of the accusations is staggering, and we break down what this means, where justice stands, and why silence is not an option.
These are the stories that donât add up, donât make sense, and absolutely deserve a serious side-eye. This is Something Ainât Right, where uncomfortable truths get the attention they demand.

This week on The Final Word, we dive into the latest absurdities from the Trump administration, starting with the First Familyâs bold new venture into meme coins. Yes, because if thereâs one thing democracy needed, itâs a crypto scheme that enriches the Trumps while making financial ruin fun.
Meanwhile, Homeland Security Secretary (and villain in an imaginary movie titled Puppies vs. Kristi Noem) straight-up refused to answer Representative Lauren Underwoodâs question about whether due process is a fundamental right in the Constitution. Because apparently, answering basic civics questions is optional now.
Then, the New York Times reports that U.S. intelligence agencies donât actually believe Venezuelaâs president, NicolĂĄs Maduro, is working with the Tren de Aragua criminal gangâwhich would be inconvenient for the Trump administration, since thatâs their entire excuse for deporting Venezuelan immigrants to a prison in El Salvador. Facts: tricky little things.
Speaking of problems, Trump just canât quit Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, who remains determined to redefine "military leadership" by misplacing planes and halting aid to Ukraineâwithout having the actual authority to do so. Then thereâs China, Trumpâs invisible trade deals, and his latest plan to start sending detainees to Libya. Because if thereâs one thing history has taught us, itâs that detention policies dreamed up by incompetent authoritarians always end super well.
And finally, some good news! MAGA had a truly terrible night in Texas, losing 0-11 in Tarrant Countyâs three largest cities, proving that even deep-red territory sometimes chooses not to be ridiculous.
All this and more on The Final Word, where we sift through the nonsense so you donât have to.

This week on Something Ainât Right, we shine a spotlight on EviCoreâthe company quietly working behind the scenes to make sure your insurance coverage gets the big fat denial stamp. With major American insurers relying on their âservices,â 1 in 3 insured Americans are getting handledâand not in the good way.
Next, letâs pump the brakes on the mediaâs applause for Harvard supposedly âstanding upâ to the Trump administration. Because apparently, they did hand over data to the Department of Homeland Security, and oh lookâthe administration conveniently tweaked the name of the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Itâs almost like words donât mean what they used to.
And finally, if youâre looking for the most âsussâ thing happening in Washington, direct your attention to Trumpâs cabinet. Attorney General Pam Bondi recently claimed that Trump saved the lives of over 258 million Americansâmost of them in less than 24 hours. Truly remarkable, if only reality worked that way.
If it doesnât seem right, it belongs on Something Ainât Right. Tune in, and letâs break it all downâwith the proper side-eye.

This week on The Final Word, we break down Trumpâs latest executive order, grandly titled Restoring Equality of Opportunity and Meritocracy. Now, letâs play a gameâguess which three things it does not actually restore. If you guessed âequality, opportunity, and meritocracy,â congratulations! You understand how words work better than the folks who wrote this executive order.
Meanwhile, the U.S. economy shrank 0.3% in the first quarter of 2025, and in an absolutely shocking turn of events, Trump blamed everything but himself. His tariffs? His policies? Nope. Instead, he mused, âYou could even say the next quarter is sort of Biden.â Ah yes, the well-known economic principle of âfuture blame assignment.â
Trump also took time to audition for the role of the Grinch, shrugging off concerns about rising costs with, âMaybe kids will have to live with two dolls instead of thirty, and maybe the two dolls will cost a couple bucks more.â Who needs joy when you can have inflation?
In legal news, a federal judge ordered the release of Colombian student Mohsen Mahdawi, detained by I.C.E. during his citizenship interviewâa move that could reasonably be classified as what should have happened in the first place. Meanwhile, Trump continues to ignore the Supreme Courtâs order to facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the U.S., because apparently, judicial rulings are just suggestions now.
And finally, 52% of Americans believe Trump is âa dangerous dictator whose power should be limited before he destroys American democracy.â The real question: what are the other 48% looking at?
All this, plus the crucial explanation behind the biscuit jokes, on The Final Word.

This week on Something Ainât Right, we kick things off with an exciting update on Valerie, the pampered dachshund whoâs been âroughing itâ in the Australian wilderness for over 500 days. Spoiler alert: sheâs still living her best life, and weâre still wondering why humans are so extra.
Next, we dive into the BBC Arabic debacle, where reporters with a history of anti-Semitic and violence-inciting posts somehow made it onto the payroll. Journalism 101: maybe donât hire people who fail the âbasic human decencyâ test.
Then, we unpack some eyebrow-raising data that claims menâspecifically white menâare falling behind women in education due to a âgrowing bias toward girls.â Sounds like someoneâs fishing for a narrative, and weâre not biting.
And finally, MAGA proves once again that irony is not their strong suit. A website created to promote MAGA-friendly businesses has become the ultimate tool for boycotting them. Chefâs kiss.
When the world serves up absurdity, weâre here to dish it out with a side of biting commentary. Tune in to Something Ainât Rightâbecause when you have to give it the side-eye, you know it belongs here.

This week on Idiot of the Week, Frangela tackles the kind of idiocy that truly defies comprehension. First, meet Nevada Karl, who thought seven "emotional support" tigers prowling around his house was a totally fine ideaâuntil the authorities didnât agree.
Then, we head to New Jersey, where one woman decided that hiring a hitman via Tinder was the perfect plan. Because nothing says âdiscreet criminal activityâ like swiping right on murder.
Next up, the curious case of a 36-year-old who spent twenty years performing unlicensed penis enlargement surgeries. But hereâs the kickerâare the real idiots his patients or him? Discuss amongst yourselves.
And finally, the piĂšce de rĂ©sistance: a drunken reveler who showed up to the Applebeeâs parking lot in a pink thong, pink wig, and fake boobs. If youâre bringing that level of crazy, of course itâs a party. Everyone knows Applebeeâs is where legends are made.
Who will wear the crown of idiocy this week? Tune in for all the laughter, mockery, and head-shaking madness on Idiot of the Week.

This week on The Final Word, we tackle a buffet of chaos thatâs equal parts baffling and infuriating. First, we pretend to be surprised as Trump once again reverses course, this time on firing Fed Chair Jerome Powell and those oh-so-effective Chinese tariffs. Consistency is for losers, apparently.
Speaking of meltdowns, Elon Musk and the Treasury Secretary reportedly got into a shouting match in the West Wing and had to be separated by an aide. Because nothing says âstable governanceâ like billionaire temper tantrums in the halls of power. In a rare silver lining, Musk has announced heâll âreduceâ his time at the Department of Government Efficiencyâcoincidentally right after Tesla posted a 71% drop in quarterly profits. Efficiency indeed.
Next, we try to untangle the mental gymnastics of economic polling. Fifty-five percent of Americans say theyâre not confident in Trumpâs economic decision-making, but that means 45% are confident? Meanwhile, 87% are worried about inflation, and 76% fear a recession. Math? Logic? Anyone?
And as if that wasnât dystopian enough, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is now creating a national autism registry by pulling private medical records. Nothing to worry about there, right? Oh, and the Trump administration is proving once again that cruelty is the point by planning to eliminate the 988 suicide hotlineâs specialized support for LGBTQ youth.
All this and more on The Final Word, where we make sense of the senselessâor at least laugh while we try.

This week on Something Ainât Right, we cast a skeptical gaze at some of the worldâs most baffling headlines, starting with the women reportedly being paid to expand Elon Muskâs ever-growing legion of offspring. Is this philanthropy, a futuristic dystopia, or just Musk being Musk? The side-eye is strong with this one.
Next, we dissect the grand return of â90s magic bad boy David Blaine in David Blaine: Do Not Attempt. A show with a warning in the title? Seems promisingâor terrifying. Either way, weâre watching through our fingers crossed.
And finally, six wealthy and famous womenâincluding Katy Perry, Gayle King, and Jeff Bezosâ fiancĂ©eâtook a glamorous eleven-minute joyride into suborbital space and somehow returned as worse people. Was this space travel or an elite-level humility vacuum? NASA, we have questions.
If it doesnât seem right, it probably isnât. Join us for another episode of Something Ainât Right, where skepticism reigns and the nonsense never ends.

But wait, the competition is heating up! Donât forget about the passenger who thought a can of tuna was the perfect mid-flight snack. And letâs not overlook the Wisconsin pizzeria that may have unwittingly laced a whopping 60 pizzas with THC! When did ordering pizza become so dangerous?!?!?!?!?

This week on Something Ainât Right, we dive into the latest batch of baffling headlines, starting with Elon Muskâs new passion project: pronatalism. Because when youâre a billionaire, why not dabble in regressive ideologies between rocket launches? Next, we tackle the Amish e-bike debateâare they the eco-friendly savior weâve been waiting for, or just chaos on two wheels? Spoiler alert: itâs complicated.
Feeling like a laugh? The Trump administration thinks it can charm its way into taking over Greenland. Yes, Greenland. Because nothing says âdiplomatic finesseâ like a poorly executed charm offensive.
And finally, in a story thatâs equal parts horrifying and infuriating, a judge has ruled that Alabama is not immune from a lawsuit alleging the harvesting of prison inmatesâ organs. When the world serves up a platter of âwhat the heck,â Frances and Angela are here to dish it out with biting commentary and a side of humor.
Tune in for your weekly dose of Something Ainât Right. Itâs cathartic. Probably.
