Summary

🎙️ The fellas bask in the $16M glory that is the latest Trump legal victory. Who else would build their empire like this?

🏊 Then, UPenn caves to the will of Donald Trump and Linda McMahon takes a well-earned victory lap. Holmes gives credit to Riley Gaines, who took an unpopular position when this all started, to her credit.

⚡️ The lightning round features Alligator Alcatraz, or Gator GITMO, Democratic meltdown around the Big Beautiful Bill and then we play some King of the Hill.

👩🏻‍⚖️ Then, Diddy fans are extra, and it's just not okay.

🗳️ It was another banner week for DJT — enjoy it with Josh Holmes, Comfortably Smug, Michael Duncan and John Ashbrook.
