This week, the Idiots discuss

00:00 Welcome!

00:36 ISIS Attacks Russia

07:44 Francis Scott Key Bridge

16:16 Trump Bibles for Sale

27:41 Columbia Breaks up with Israel

29:02 Twitter Loses Lawsuit

32:53 Candice Owens Gets Fired

The breakdown: 

—Vladimir Putin wanted the ISIS attack on the Crocus City Hall attack in Moscow to be Ukraine so badly. He still wants Ukraine to be involved. We discuss the joys of living in a police state (dictatorship)—namely the ability to beat the unholy hell out of captured terrorists—as well as the downside—state controlled media. 

—Six people lost their lives when the Francis Scott Key bridge in Baltimore, Maryland. That tragedy should give people pause to reflect and discuss the event with respectful tones, right? Ha! Not when conservatives (as well as insane people, like Alex Jones and Kevin Sorbo) are involved. Tragedies are meant to be twisted, don’t ‘cha know? What really caused the Dali to hit the bridge? Nothing being spewed by Fox News, that’s for sure.

(Side note: the idiots also discuss the stupidest of the stupid among us, QAnon believers, and how they believe conspiracies over the truth every single time.)

—The Idiots love Donald Trump. That’s all there is to it. Imagine how beautiful it would be to have insanely loyal followers like he does. He said it himself: he could shoot someone, and his followers wouldn’t bat an eye. And now he’s selling the dumbest of the dumb bibles.

—Columbia is done with Israel. Did they break off diplomatic ties? Nah, Columbian president  Gustavo Petro sent a Tweet. Well done, Gustavo.

—Speaking of Twitter, Elon Musk just lost an obvious lawsuit. He’s a champion for free speech, which is fine, but you can’t be both a champion of free speech, and cry foul when it’s pointed out that hate speech increased under your watch. When you allow the worst of the worst to spew their stupid on Twitter, don’t be surprised when you’re called out. Elon tried to sue the Center for Countering Digital Hate, and because facts matter (sometimes), the case was tossed. Go justice.

—What kind of world do we live in where two hate-filled people can’t get along and hate together? Ben Shapiro and Candice Owens are perfect together on paper. So, Ben hired Candice to spread garbage on his garbage site, The Daily Wire, but for reasons unknown to the outside world, they couldn’t make it work. Oh well.

Idiots on Parade: we mock the news, so you don’t have to.

Tune in and get your giggle on.
