About this listen

This segment weaves together a series of controversial topics, arguing that recent events are part of a larger, coordinated political and cultural battle. The hosts first explore a perceived pattern of violence linked to transgender and gender non-conforming individuals, suggesting that mainstream media and law enforcement are actively concealing evidence to protect the Democratic Party. They specifically highlight the withholding of toxicology reports and manifestos, arguing that these documents would reveal a connection between cross-sex hormones and psychosis, a claim they base on a Google search and a translated Russian text. The conversation then pivots to the political use of tragedy, accusing Democratic politicians and media figures of using synchronized, pre-written talking points—specifically the phrase "thoughts and prayers are not enough"—to immediately push for gun control. The hosts connect this alleged coordination to a modern-day "Operation Mockingbird," a conspiracy theory that the CIA manipulates the media. This is framed as a long-term strategy to disarm the public, which the hosts warn could lead to a future like Venezuela, where only criminals and the government have guns. Finally, the hosts discuss broader cultural and economic issues, including President Donald Trump's handling of Chinese student visas and trade, and what they see as recent victories in the "culture war," citing a positive financial outcome for the American Eagle brand after a controversial ad. The segment concludes with a critique of the Democratic Party and the celebration of what they view as significant cultural and economic wins against the left.
