    The Joe Rogan Experience with Bernie Sanders recap, Trump’s Iran Strikes and the MAGA Civil War
    Jun 25 2025
    Joe Rogan’s sit-down with Senator Bernie Sanders blows the lid off a brewing civil war in MAGA world. The pair dig into Congressman Thomas Massie’s “unconstitutional” critique of Trump’s Iran strikes, Trump’s retaliation PAC, and the Streisand-effect backlash from right-wing stars like Steve Bannon, Tucker Carlson, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Alex Jones, and Candace Owens. Rogan also calls out deportation raids and Trump’s shaky “Complete and Total CEASEFIRE,” revealing how voters who wanted “no more wars” wound up with bombing runs and job-site round-ups.

  • Trump’s 12-Hour Israel-Iran Ceasefire & Florida’s Alligator Alcatraz

    Trump’s 12-Hour Israel-Iran Ceasefire & Florida’s Alligator Alcatraz
    Jun 24 2025
    Patrick Gutfield skewers the surreal headlines of the day, starting with Donald Trump’s all-caps declaration of a “COMPLETE and TOTAL” 12-hour Israel-Iran ceasefire—an overnight timeout that feels more like a homework deadline than real diplomacy. From Truth Social theatrics to Iran’s pre-announced missile “warning shot” at a U.S. base in Qatar, Patrick dissects every eyebrow-raising detail and asks whether a subscription-style truce can really end decades of tension.Then it’s off to the Everglades, where Florida’s plan for a migrant detention camp dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz” turns Trump’s moat fantasies into humid reality. Natural security courtesy of gators and pythons? Check. Canvas tents in peak summer heat? Double-check.

    Trump Iran Hack Job: Trump’s Iran Strike Triggers Cyber Panic, Nobel Bragging, and a History Do-Over
    Jun 23 2025
    Patrick Gutfield tackles today’s triple-header of controversy: DHS and security pros warn Iranian hackers could retaliate for Trump’s “massive precision strikes,” the former president demands credit for four-or-five Nobel Peace Prizes on Truth Social, and a new directive orders National Parks to spin slavery, internment camps, and Jim Crow into feel-good patriotism—complete with QR-code snitch lines. From proxy-war cyber fears to a “sunny” rewrite of the Trail of Tears, Patrick serves up sharp snark on the latest twists in American politics.
