Head in the Office

Man-made horrors beyond my comprehension! The HITO men dive into the narratives surrounding the man who shot the two National Guard members in DC. In the face of bipartisan calls to increase vetting for immigrants, they break down why liberals need to stop ceding ground to the right's narratives on immigration. Later, they highlight an ICE agent's use of AI to write a use of force authorization, and why that practice may be responsible for the inconsistencies between their reports and body cam footage.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is resigning from Congress, effective early next year. She has separated from the Republican Party and Trump on some key issues like Epstein, the government shutdown, and Gaza... but has she actually changed? Is it a grift? Or can she just sense the political winds shifting? This was originally a substack post on our newsletter, Tertiary News, that was transformed into a short video essay.

Get ready for the holidays with your two favorite midwestern white boys as they prepare you for a variety of discussions that may come up at your family's celebrations. Can you convince your uncle that Zohran Mamdani won't ruin New York City? Will a cousin say Trump's tariffs are actually going to improve the awful economy? Are mass deportations good for anything at all? Has Trump actually stopped 8 wars??? Then, finally, recall with us, highlights from the Jeffrey Epstein saga that will surely convince anyone that there's a cover-up!

YOU DONT HATE MODERATE DEMOCRATS ENOUGH!! The men talk about the complete and total lack of backbones in centrist democrats, their failure to secure anything meaningful in the government shutdown fight, and the inability of Chuck Schumer to lead his party.
