All I'm gonna be is a joke

All I'm gonna be is a joke

All I'm gonna be is a joke Hello, everybody, everybody, it's a chop. Hello, everybody. It's Monday, September 15th, and this is your chopo. In just a little bit, I will be

talking to Pablo Torre, of Pablo Torre finds out about some of his recent bombshell reporting

as it pertains to American sports, the business of sports, and labor relations within those sports.

But before we get to that,

it's me and Felix. And just to continue with obviously like the biggest story of last week

and now with some time to consider or sort of begin to maybe kind of half make sense of the

assassination of Charlie Kirk, I think we should begin

there today. And Felix, and the way I'm thinking about this is like there's essentially sort of two

tracks that can be like discussed here. And one is the actual killing itself and the person who

allegedly did it and trying to assess out what if any

motive could be gleaned from it and then uh second is like the political fallout and reaction to it

and i guess like because that's easier to talk to talk about let's start there and i guess i'm

going to begin here with the president and how he's taking this all in and And the thing that struck me the most from this weekend, and I know like the Trump

administration and their, you know, like, allies in the media and elsewhere are certainly,

it's very clear what they're trying to do with this, which is to create sort of a martyr

that can be used to wave the bloody shirt and advance their cause

of, you know, getting rid of freedom of speech and, you know, like criminalizing political

dissent or political opposition in this country. But the thing that I find funny is that, like,

once again, Trump as the leader of this sort of pseudo-fascist movement can't really seem to be bothered to

like stick to the script or, I don't know, events like any idea that he cares about any of this, Felix.
