Y'all today we're talking about the NYPD fabricating a murder confession, why tons of U.S. veterans are now losing their homes despite the promises that were made to them.

And break down the Jonathan Major's guilty verdict.

We absolutely have to talk about the truth around the Cornell application kit.

Because the reality of what's happened there is ugly, it's disgusting, and we need to talk about.

And so we're going to be talking about all that and actually so much more on today's extra large Philip DeFranco show. So buckle up, hit that like button if you like these daily deep dives into the news and let's just jump into it.

Starting with, this bullshit pisses me off. Context is king. It's one of the most important things.

It changes how what you're about to read or listen to or see how it is received. And mistakes will inevitably happen if you're in this space long enough, and there are ways to remedy that, unfortunately, in a world that incentivizes engagement bait,

a lot of people have been playing fast and loose. With the most recent example being the 17-year-old

kid John from Lakewood, Ohio, because John, he's had a dream about attending Cornell University's

school of hotel administration. And so he applied early for it. And when he got a response from the university, he filmed his reaction live for TikTok. He's sitting at his computer. He's wearing a Cornell sweatshirt.

His parents are looking on. And his attention builds. The caption lists all his qualifications.

4.6 GPA, 1460 SAT. 460 plus hours community service. Summer college courses, built investment

portfolios, $160,000 scholarships, skipped a grade,

played clarinet for 10 years, was on the news, led environment preservation projects.

Then, they were all replaced by the single caption, but it was still not good enough.

And the video ends as John just stares in disbelief, his hand to his mouth, his parents consoling him.

So all in all, you know, like a pretty normal TikTok for the, you know, share everything generations.

But then in walks this fuckhead Josh Lachash.

And he posts his video on Twitter, X, whatever the hell you want to call it.

But he shares it with the caption, the lens, the context of,

Bro got rejected because he's why Elon Musk should hire him.

Now, let me be clear.
