After discussing Amanda’s groundbreaking trip to Chicago and her Lived Experience™ with not getting COVID, we examine the Chinese Communist Party’s failed mission to keep anyone from getting COVID—even if it means destroying every life in the process. We puzzle over a few theories about what’s really behind the CCP’s totalitarian ramp-up before breaking down the latest BLM financial scandal at home. How would a charity that *really* puts black lives first spend their money? Finally, we consider Elon Musk’s democracy-destroying offer to buy Twitter and close with a light item: inflation numbers.
