Brad and Dan tackle the controversy surrounding Jimmy Kimmel, the FCC, and free speech in the United States, while examining political and media reactions to Charlie Kirk’s death and the responses from Trump allies JD Vance and Steven Miller.
They discuss the broader implications for media censorship, the growing power of state-aligned outlets, and how high-profile events are used to justify targeting dissent, particularly against left-wing groups, trans people, and critics of the Trump administration.
The episode highlights the Heritage Foundation’s push to label trans people and allies as domestic terrorists, the chilling effect of government threats on universities and businesses, and the ripple effects leading to preemptive firings and resignations. Despite these alarming developments, Brad and Dan underscore the importance of resistance, hope, and refusing to give in to authoritarian trends.
