"Hi. On today's episode, Katy, Cody, and Jonathan discuss the Trump administration's ongoing, lawless kidnappings, Kilmar Abrego Garcia and other disappeared individuals, and why Democrats should not avoid this issue. They also talk about Elon Musk's weird 'legion' compound and RFK Jr's offensive comments about people with autism."



This is the first time I've watched an episode of the extra podcast associated with Some More News. I might start making this a regular thing. Maybe. I'd almost prefer it to the official show, in many respects. Certainly way less puppets (well, aside from Warmbo being creepily in the background of every fullscreen shot with Cody, anyway) and skits, at any rate.

Yeah, I read an article about Senator Chris Van Hollen's trip to El Salvador to see Kilmar Abrego Garcia, and the last sentence in that article was "Some high-profile Democrats have opted to keep the focus on the economic backlash to Trump's sweeping tariffs, which polling suggests is much more of a political liability to the president than his ongoing efforts to deport immigrants." Which is just asinine. Come on, guys, you can uselessly, performatively hand-wring and pearl-clutch about more than just one thing at a time, you know, you fucking milquetoast namby-pambies.

Ah... so that is real reason why Elon Musk bought Twitter? How fucking bizarre and putrid.

Also, holy shit, I've never actually heard RFK Jr. talk before. I mean, I kind of wanted to make fun of it, because RFK Jr. is a fucking ghoul, but I looked up the reason why, and I'm not going to mock the guy for having a neurological disorder. I'm not (thank the heavens) Donald Trump, after all. Besides, there's plenty of other things to mock RFK Jr. for, such as his completely dumbshit, vile beliefs about vaccines and autism.

Now that I've finally managed to get my phone and the car console thing set up so that my phone properly connects to the car and I can play the music from my phone over the car speakers[1], I may never listen to regular radio again. Or, at the very least, for the next four years or so, considering it seems like all of talk radio (either of the NPR variety or the RWNJ variety [presumably, since I don't listen to RWNJ shit to start with, though I too often have to switch if away from that shit]) just wants to be all Trump all the time, these days. And if I'm going to be listening to music, regardless, I'd rather just listen to my own stuff than to whatever random shit that gets played these days.

[1] - The first stumbling block was just getting the phone to connect at all, which turned out to be because A) the Android Auto setting on the car console was turned off and B) the Android Auto app on my phone had long since auto-disabled itself since I never used it before now and it had to be re-enabled. The second stumbling block was that even after I got the phone to actually connect, it still wasn't letting me play any music, the solution for which was to uninstall the Samsung Music app that came preloaded on my phone and replace it with... the Samsung Music app... expect it had to be installed via Google Play instead of Galaxy Store. Go figure.
