This week on The Final Word, Frangela is serving up a piping hot plate of truth with a side of “what fresh hell is this?” as the Trumpocalypse rolls on. First up: those “Liberation Day” tariffs are hitting harder than a bad perm—Yale Budget Lab says we’re all about to cough up an extra $2,400 this year. Thanks, economic freedom!

Meanwhile, Ambassador Pete Hoekstra dusts off his VHS of South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut and goes full “Blame Canada,” because apparently reality is just too spicy for the Trump administration. Over in census land, Trump wants to count people like he counts facts—selectively and incorrectly.

Texas Democrats are on the run (literally), trying to stop a redistricting plan so racist it makes Jim Crow blush. The FBI’s now playing hide-and-seek with democracy. And in international “what now?” news, Netanyahu says Israel’s just gonna go ahead and occupy all of Gaza. Cool cool cool.

Back home, Health Secretary RFK Jr. (aka Brain Worms) axes $500 million in mRNA vaccine funding, because science is scary and facts are rude. Oh, and the Library of Congress just casually deleted parts of the Constitution. No biggie—just the unlawful detention clause. Who needs rights anyway?

But don’t worry, Gavin Newsom is here with the shade and the sass, dragging Trump like a pro. And finally, Laura Loomer and Marjorie Taylor Greene remind us why we can’t have nice things—by turning their MAGA meltdown into a street brawl.

Grab your emotional support snacks, because Frangela’s got The Final Word on this week’s chaos carnival.

First up, we’re dialing into Trump’s latest obsession: the National Guard hotline. Why is the ex-president suddenly in love with camo-clad muscle, and what does it mean for D.C.? Spoiler: it’s more than just a flex.

Next, we unpack his escalation of attacks on prominent Black Americans and the magical disappearing act of his free IVF promise—because ghosting a constitutional right is so 2025.

Then, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth goes full backward-cam era by reposting a pastor’s “women shouldn’t vote” manifesto. We’ll have receipts, reactions, and the best takedown you’ll hear all week.

Finally, in the daily war against the spider cabal, scientists have discovered tarantulas packing such extravagant genitalia that they’ve earned themselves a whole new genus. Yes, biology just got a little kinkier.

This week on The Final Word, we ask the question no one dared to utter aloud: Whatever happened to the charming racism? You know, the kind that wore a monocle and said “those people” with a genteel sneer instead of a bullhorn and a MAGA hat. Trump’s latest “naturally” racist musings have us wondering if subtlety is dead—or just deported.

Meanwhile, the Epstein saga continues to unravel like a badly written soap opera, and the Trump administration is treating us like we all failed civics and common sense. VP Vance calls it “the Epstein situation,” which is like calling Chernobyl “a bit of a hiccup.”

We also dive into the dumbest tariffs this side of a Monopoly board, Trump’s extortion cosplay, RFK Jr.’s apparent attempt to turn your immune system into a piñata, and the GOP’s plan to blow up satellites, solar programs, and—why not—democracy itself.

It’s sassy, it’s savage, it’s smarter than it has any right to be. Buckle up, buttercup. The Final Word is bringing receipts, rage, and ridiculousness.

Hold on tight, y’all—because this week on Something Ain’t Right, we’re flying straight into the storm of nonsense. First up: Is Delta letting A.I. set their airfares now? So basically, the robots are up-charging us for legroom and trauma. Fantastic. 

Then it’s a peek behind the political curtain, where Laura Loomer—yes, her again—is out here getting folks bounced from the Trump orbit. Didn’t we have the receipts that her fifteen minutes were up?

Next, we sip the piping hot chaos over the Tea dating app. It’s for women’s safety, but somehow folks are more outraged by the app itself than the actual number of reported assaults it’s trying to address? That’s not just wrong—it’s aggressively backwards.

And finally, we ask the eternal question: who is Sydney Sweeney—and is she trending for her jeans... or her genes? Either way, something ain’t right, and we’re digging deep—denim and DNA included.

Buckle up folks—this episode of The Final Word is giving "plot twist" energy. We dive into the disturbing assault of Virginia City Councilman Lee Vogler (spoiler: not political, just plain awful), then take a stroll down Conspiracy Lane as Senate Democrats dust off an ancient lawbook trying to pry open Epstein’s mystery vault. Ghislaine Maxwell wants to testify before Congress... with a list of demands. Girl, you are not Beyoncé on tour. Meanwhile, the U.K. says it’ll officially recognize a Palestinian state unless Israel locks in a ceasefire and a peace plan. Shoutout to diplomatic ultimatums! 

And back in Texas—where maps apparently come with built-in bias—Republicans are pitching a new congressional layout that would hand them five extra seats. 

We also shine a harsh spotlight on ICE's treatment of detained women, with disturbing allegations of abuse and neglect that demand accountability. If you thought things couldn’t get more outrageous, think again.

Plus, we’ve got your emails, your rants, and all the dizzying drama we can cram into one mic. Pour a drink, grab your pearls—and let’s get into this madness.

This week on Something Ain’t Right, we’re serving a full-course meal of messed-up madness—with a heavy pour of side-eye.

First up, immigration agents tell a U.S. citizen teenager that he’s got “no rights.” Um, what year is it again?! Then we shift to the climate emergency you probably missed: the world’s first planned national migration is underway as Tuvalu inches toward being swallowed by the sea.

Next, the Trump administration’s latest move? Making it easier to involuntarily commit people under the guise of mental health “care.” We read that twice and it still sounds terrifying. And just when you thought the week couldn’t get more petty, the Venezuelan Little League team gets their dreams crushed after the U.S. refuses their visas. Who denies kids baseball? Monsters, that’s who.

'You’ve got no rights’: teenage US citizen records violent arrest by immigration officers

This week as famine deepens in Gaza, we trace the humanitarian catastrophe to its roots: decades of failed diplomacy, strategic blockades, and the silent complicity of global powers. We also look at Jacksonville, Florida, as outrage mounts over a viral video showing a Black man assaulted during a traffic stop.

We also examine why sealed documents in the Kohberger case remain out of public reach, raising questions about transparency in high-profile trials. Meanwhile, the name “Epstein” re-emerges, and reportedly Attorney General Pam Bondi delivered the news to Donald Trump about his ties to those files back in May.

Then, in a twist that defies political precedent, Trump and DNI Director Tulsi Gabbard accuse former President Obama of treason—sparking what they claim is an official investigation. And on Capitol Hill, the Kennedy Center finds itself at the center of a culture war, with House Republicans tying federal funding to a rebranding of its opera house in honor of Melania Trump.

Fees, Felons, and Shady Medicine

This week on Something Ain’t Right, we hand a big ol’ thank-you to listener Gordon A. for spotting the latest legislative sneak attack: a shiny new travel fee to enter the U.S., buried deep in the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” like it’s a footnote in fine print nobody reads. (Except Gordon. Gordon reads.)

Next up, we give some serious stank-eye to the Los Angeles Innocence Project, who apparently thinks Scott Peterson deserves a do-over. Girl, what?

And hold onto your medical history, because the New York Times is raising alarms about the organ transplant hustle putting donors in danger. We’re talking real lives, real risk, and a whole lotta "wait, what?"

If it's sketchy, shady, or just plain wrong—we're dragging it into the spotlight. Tune in for truth, sass, and the kind of outrage you didn’t know you needed until now.

First, Trump calls his own Epstein-file-demanding supporters “stupid,” which is a bit rich coming from the man who once claimed windmills cause cancer. Then, the former president teases firing Fed Chair Jerome Powell like he's choosing toppings at a froyo bar—“Maybe I will, maybe I won’t... extra sprinkles?”

Meanwhile, is the Justice Department playing election "games," asking nine states for their voter rolls?Meanwhile Trump plays cartographer-in-chief, nudging Texas to redraw its congressional map like it's a sketchpad at Mar-a-Lago. And in a financial finale, Wall Street semi-quivers as Trump enters the chat with all the subtlety of a bull in a China shop—except this bull occasionally insists he’s also a genius.

It’s unhinged, it's exhausting, it's America. Tune in for the chaos, stay for the catharsis.

This week on Something Ain’t Right, we’re serving the side-eye with a splash of righteous rage—and the nonsense is boiling over.

First, we tackle the lingering mystery around the Trump shooting. Was it political? Personal? Just plain bizarre? You tell us if we’ve lost our minds or if reality has taken a long walk off a short pier.

Then—drumroll, please—this band just admitted they’re AI. Yep, your favorite synth-pop group might literally be synth. So if you’ve ever wondered whether your playlists are gaslighting you, now’s your answer.

Meanwhile in California, a federal judge ruled the LAPD cannot shoot journalists with “less-lethal” weapons during protests. Because nothing says “freedom of the press” like getting bean bagged for reporting the news.

And if you thought Superman just stood for truth, justice, and great cheekbones, guess again—the new movie’s inspiration has the bigots in full meltdown mode. We say let them cry faster than a speeding bullet.

Finally, the National Park Service quietly erased “transgendered” and “bisexual” from the Stonewall Monument website. Oh, we noticed—and yes, we’re loudly calling B.S.

Tune in for all that and more as we cut through the chaos, drag the dumb, and remind you: when it feels wrong, it probably is.
