HOT TOPICS | Has Trump Declared War on Chicago...WTF Is This Fascist BS?! - September 8th, 2025

Donald Trump has done it again, this time using Truth Social to all but declare war on Chicago, threatening to send in troops as if it were a hostile nation and not, you know, an American city. How exactly have we gotten to this point? Meanwhile, the public seems less than thrilled with their “strongman.” At the U.S. Open, Trump was greeted not with cheers but with a sea of boos. And yet, news outlets were conveniently asked not to show it. Because nothing says “popular leader” quite like silencing dissent and pretending the jeers don’t exist. We’ll break it all down: Trump’s latest fascist move, the backlash he’s facing, and why the cover-ups are just as damning as the policies themselves. This episode is brought to you by ZBiotics.
