Trump Lies About Elections
Last Friday at 9:00 PM

Donald Trump has delivered his latest non-essential prime-time address, this time in an attempt to spread misinformation about American elections and threaten his political enemies with criminal investigations. Complicating matters, he was denied his longtime teleprompter producer for the speech, as they are currently under investigation for insider bets on Kalshi related to Trump's speeches. This is the worst timeline.

Nick Hausman and Tanner Sells react to Trump's latest public ramblings and the ongoing corruption behind the scenes. Plus, they weigh in on Mayor Zohran Mamdani's decision to decline a pay raise. What a hero!

Low T Department Of War
Last Thursday at 9:51 PM

As fires burn north of Chicago, sending plumes of smoke our way, Pete Hegseth is busy burning down what remains of the Department of Defense, or, as he calls it, the Department of War.

Todd Blanche Is A Parasite
Last Thursday at 3:05 PM

Yesterday, Donald Trump's "former" personal attorney, Todd Blanche, sat for his Congressional confirmation hearing. It was a sickening affair that regularly saw Democrats illustrating Blanche's ties to the ongoing Jeffrey Epstein cover-up and close ties to Trump, while Republicans shoved their fingers in their ears and heaped praise on the bumbling sycophant.

And while one parasite sat in front of Congress yesterday, another was and still is making its way across the country in the stomachs of everyday Americans.

Nick Hausman reunites with EJ Cameron to discuss Blanche's abysmal confirmation hearing and the alarming rise...


E Jean Carroll Gets Her Money
Last Wednesday at 1:51 PM

Donald Trump was found guilty by a jury of his peers of sexually assaulting and defaming author E Jean Carroll. She was awarded $5 million, and Trump has fought tooth and nail to prevent her from getting the money. That all changed this week, as the President was finally forced to pay up!

This is playing out as another lawsuit is being brought forward to prevent the Paramount and Warner Brothers Discovery merger from going through. Which would be a huge blow to Trump's effort to put mainstream media in the hands of his sycophants.

IDF & ICE Are Out Of Control
07/14/2026

This past week, California representative Ro Khanna attempted to survey the damage done in the West Bank, only to be accosted by Israeli settlers and, eventually, IDF soldiers.

Nick Hausman and Tanner Sells react to the overreach of power by both forces and break...

Donald Trump Loves Poop Not Housing
07/10/2026
