In the eighty-fifth episode we explore the Broken Window Fallacy, starting with Trump claiming tariffs would help the economy, and Texas and Mississippi Attorneys General arguing that banning abortions empowers women and stimulates interstate commerce.
In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Boris Johnson boasting that the abolition of Free Trade with the EU since Brexit means exporters only have one set of forms to fill in for the whole world, and the fact we can't get workers to drive petrol tankers means our economy is super strong if you think about it.
In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from The Fifth Element and The Simpsons.
Jim and Mark go head to head in Fake News, the game in which Mark has to guess which of three Trump quotes Jim made up.
Then we talk about Alex Jones's latest legal woes.
And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week.
