Summary

Gas prices, political spin, and reality collide in this episode, as Republicans insist everything is “perfect” while voters feel the pressure. We also break down the push for a taxpayer-funded “golden ballroom,” with the GOP defending the massive cost, and the DOJ’s year-long “seashell” investigation led by Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and Kash Patel.

And now we're looking back at week 67, how in the world have we survived this long?

0:53.3

All right, let's get started. Donald and his

0:56.2

enablers, otherwise known as the Republican Party, want us to live in a world of pure fantasy.

is $4.30 a gap. That is a more than $1 increase. So for the enumerates among us,

1:41.7

McDonald's, $4.30 is much more than $3.15.
