About this episode

The episode discusses the absurdity of current political events and military resistance to Trump, along with far-right conspiracy theories and government continuity plans.

Reality has become more absurd than written comedy at this point. The Strait is open...it's closed...we closed it...Iran opened it...if Iran doesn't open it... (rolling eyes emoji inserted here) Kash Patel!...(tearing up laughing emoji inserted here) LSD!...(both emojis from above...) You get the idea. Let's talk about the military resistance to trump. But let's also talk about the growing talk, lead by the far right, including MTG on things like trump faking the attempted assassination on him. Let's talk about Jamie Raskin leading the creation of a council made up of past presidents and vice presidents to oversee continuity in government after the current incapable POTUS is taken out of power. Let's talk about THESE things.
