Podcast #152 - The Cracks in DOGE Start While Trump's Mind Turns To Mush

Last week on Fox News the network took a slight shift away from its aggressive promotion of Elon Musk’s DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) to focus on a favorite topic - incompetent Democrats. The minority party was everything all at once - too old, young, radical, meek, uptight, woke, sleepy, bombastic, corrupt, backward, ineffective, Machiavellian and shifty. On “The Five,” producers featured two or three segments in a row that basically had the same message - Democrats are terrible. The network even returned to trashing former President Joe Biden. Meanwhile the Trump administration was hit with multiple lawsuits surrounding the DOGE task force This is a public episode.

Podcast #151 - Fox Pretends Everyone Loves Elon Musk Even as Voters Scream They Hate Him

Last week the folks on Fox continued to elevate Elon Musk as a wildly popular champion of the American people while they pretended proposed $5000 DOGE dividend checks issued to every adult American would not cause inflation. Crime, the economy, transgender athletes, DEI programs, the woke mind virus, border crossings and mass deportations all took a backseat as the network became a DOGE infomercial. Meanwhile in town halls across the country organized by Republican members of congress angry constituents complained bitterly about the reckless unelected billionaire who was destroying jobs and slashing important government programs.

Podcast #150 - A Celebration of Corruption: Elon Musk and Eric Adams Two Crooks in a Pod

Last week the folks on Fox created fables about Elon Musk the selfless tech warrior who was lowering tax bills for everyday Americans. The network promoted the idea that DOGE was only destroying wasteful woke programs meant to push deranged ideology. Tom Homan basically openly admitted Trump made a deal with Eric Adams to keep him out of prison. It was a celebration of corruption and grift on Fox News. This is a public episode.

#149 Podcast - All Hail To the Nazi Elon Musk

Last week the folks at Fox twisted themselves into knots to defend the actions of a maniacal corrupt billionaire hellbent on destroying entire government agencies without congressional oversight. They would never admit that their glorious leader, Donald J. Trump, was just a puppet for Elon Musk, a South African immigrant with extremist political leanings. This is a public episode.

Podcast #148 - DEI Hysteria and the Racist Ramblings of a Madman

The folks at Fox were quick to repeat and amplify the deranged tirades of our malignant narcissist president who blamed diversity, equity and inclusion programs for the recent catastrophic fatal crash of a military helicopter and commercial airline over the Potomac. When grieving families and shocked Americans needed words of sympathy and reassurance Trump was more than happy to terrify and provoke. At the time of President Trump’s hateful statements authorities didn’t know the identities of anyone involved in the disaster. Trump assumed with no evidence that the crash was the result of a degradation of hiring standards. This is a public episode.

Podcast # 147 Blue Lives Matter Unless You Defended the Capitol on Jan. 6th

Last week the folks at Fox News treated Donald J. Trump as if he were a supernatural being who came down from heaven on the wings of a bald eagle to vanquish the woke, transgender, cultural Marxist enemies of the United States and lift the nation up to a mythical state of its former glory when robber barons swam through the Panama Canal. There was one topic no one wanted to talk about - Trump’s pardon of January 6th rioters. This is a public episode.

Bonus Podcast - Inauguration Coverage - Fox News vs. The PBS News Hour

I watched roughly six hours of inauguration coverage on Fox News along with six hours on the PBS News Hour. I pulled quotes from both to show how a garbage propaganda network (Fox News) compared to a high quality nonpartisan news source. Stephanie Sy, of PBS, shares some great insight on Trump supporters. Brit Hume of Fox News created his own reality. PBS included experts and academics while Fox News trotted out its own employees. Fox News looked even more ridiculous than usual.
