About this listen

This week on The Necessary Conversation, Chad and Haley dive into a whirlwind of political chaos, corruption, and controversy with Mary Lou while Bob sleeps through most of the episode.

Topics discussed:

  • Jimmy Kimmel Suspended: After Trump threatened ABC and FCC Chair Brendan Carr piled on, Kimmel was yanked off the air indefinitely. We break down the timeline, the First Amendment questions, and why Fox News hosts like Brian Kilmeade still get airtime even after calling for violence.
  • Tom Homan’s $50K Bribe: Trump’s “border czar” was caught on hidden camera accepting cash from undercover FBI agents—yet Trump’s DOJ buried the case.
  • Mississippi Hangings: Two men—Trey Reed, a Black student at Delta State, and Cory Zukatis, a homeless white man—were found hanging from trees. Conflicting reports and FBI inaction raise troubling questions.
  • Charlie Kirk Assassination Texts: New transcripts of suspect Tyler Robinson’s alleged confession look more like bad movie dialogue than real evidence. Even Steve Bannon isn’t buying it.
  • DOJ Deletes Terror Report: A study showing far-right extremists commit far more violence than the left suddenly vanished from DOJ’s website. We ask: why now?
  • Trump Quotes of the Week: From admitting “smart people don’t like me” to labeling Antifa a “major terrorist organization,” Trump keeps pushing the limits of free speech and democracy.

💬 Do you think Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension is a First Amendment violation?
💬 Are the Charlie Kirk texts real or staged?
💬 Should the DOJ be allowed to bury inconvenient data?
