Hey, everyone. It's me, Sam Stein. I am the managing editor here at the bulwark, and I'm joining you on a Saturday morning because some crazy stuff is happening.

Like, obviously crazy stuff happens all the time, but last night in Trump world, it was particularly wild.

So I want to step back before we get to last night's insanity because we had a really crazy day even before that.

There was a whole host of things that were happening, for instance, among other things.

There was a story that came out that said RFK Jr.

Our HHS secretary still uses psychedelics.

I thought that was really wild and may have even smoked.

I don't even know how to pronounce this.

Demethyltripatamine. Geez, I don't even know. Whatever. It's a drug that makes you feel like you're close to death. Don't smoke it. That was just one. We had another report. The deputy FBI director, Dan Bongino may have not taken a polygraph test prior to getting hired for the job. That's pretty wild stuff. There was also the president melting down over the Epstein files where he called on the attorney general to just investigate the Democrats that were. He was pretty overt about it.

He's just investigate the Democrats that were named in these files. And then she said,

sure, I'm on it. And she appointed someone to do it. It was just sort of brazen. And then there's another story that the DHS secretary had sent millions of

dollars of ad contracts to a firm that had ties close to her. Listen, any one of these

alone would have been a salacious scandal, but it all happened in the 24-hour period. And yet,

that's not the thing I want to focus on. So there was a tweet yesterday

that really caught my attention. And it was by a guy who normally doesn't catch my attention

for things other than wild conspiracies. And it's a guy named Mike Cernovich. Now, you might

know Mike Cernovich because he's a conservative, magish operative who was integral in the Pizsgate scandal. Anyways, he's a conservative magish operative who was integral in the pizza gate scandal.

Anyways, he's fairly loyal to Trump and, you know, you don't expect stuff like this for him.

But he put up a tweet yesterday about a visit he had taken to D.C.

And this is what caught my eye.

Quote, the talk of everyone was how overt the corruption was.

It's at levels you read about in history books.
