Rob talked to Jesse Hawken, host of the Junk Filter podcast, about Donald Trump’s recent threats to Canada to institute tariffs or possible just annex the country if we don’t solve the crisis of fentanyl-dealing migrants sneaking across the border, a problem which, as far as anyone understands, doesn’t seem to be based in reality.

This transphobic attack, coupled with Trump’s pledge to purge the military of trans servicemembers, are just the beginning of what we can expect will be a constant onslaught of attacks on our trans friends.

We talk about the “bathroom distraction” fight, reports that Kamala Harris is eyeing a run of some sort in 2026 or 2028, and the “riots” in Montreal.You can watch the entire episode on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/9YJjug8LLikBecome a paid subscriber to the show and access an additional episode every week.
