This week, Donald Trump sends National Guard troops to Los Angeles to chase their dreams, JD Vance bros out about musicals, and Kristi Noem tells us to reject the evidence of our eyes and ears. Parvati Shallow and Courtney Act dive into the deep end and also the less-deep end, before we spin the wheel of villains who were actually really cool in a scene that got cut, probably.

Lovett or Leave It returns to the beautiful Lincoln Theatre for a perfect night in our nation’s perfect capital.
