Summary
John remembers legendary Beach Boys creator Brian Wilson who passed away at age 82. Brian was a pioneer in music, known for his creative control and use of the recording studio to create unique sounds. He also discusses Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth being grilled as he testified before the Senate Appropriations subcommittee on the armed forces. Then, he jokes with Bob Cesca about the lame excuses from Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt about their treatment of ICE protesters in L.A. and what proof Trump has that they are being paid to protest. Next, John welcomes back former pastor Desimber Rose and theologian Dillon Naber Cruz (AKA the God Squad) and they discuss what the bible says about being gay and the treatment of foreigners. Then lastly, he chats with legal analyst Dr. Tracy Pearson about the legality of the ICE protests and the difference between martial law and habeas corpus.
