Minion Death Cult

Merry X-Mas! We're celebrating by calling Civil War 2 on the Communist Supreme Court Justices in Colorado, who ruled to remove Trump from the state's presidential ballot.

We find nascent rumblings of "direct action" against major cities—talk of blocking food and supplies going from real America (suburbs) to urban centers (wastelands with zero resources)

ALSO: Feeling sick this year? Respiratory illness going around? It's probably the Elf's Curse: a side effect of meddling with forces beyond your comprehension (the elf on the shelf)

Hope everyone is having happy holidays. Take care of yourselves, and we'll see you next year.

TODAY: First, an update on Geezer's health and appreciation for everyone's kind words. She'll hopefully be ok.

THEN: Gay raw naked butt sex in the Senate?? No!!!! I keep my democracy in there!!!!

ALSO: A tap-dancing rendition of The Nutcracker has the right wing saying, "See? This is why we're Nazis," and we learn about how dancers in costumes give off "out-of-touch elite" vibes

TODAY: We dive into the story the news won't show you: a widely-reported video of a Virginia man's house exploding.

People are citing his unstable linkedin posts as proof he was onto something big, and even posing as him posthumously in order to get the message out there: Something is not normal.

ALSO: We examine the recent spate of "campus antisemitism," which is bad enough to bring the presidents of Ivy League schools in front of congress, but not bad enough to have any examples of the antisemitism.

We connect this to several recent instances of Israel supporters distributing Hamas propaganda "ironically" and sometimes deliberately attributing it to pro-Palestinian student groups.

TODAY: the FBI tried to "whack" Derek Chauvin? and we have original reporting from Facebook proving it?

Also: Elon Musk is asked about his antisemitic comments by the NYT, who allows him to repeat them verbatim with no pushback

And the billionaire X owner says "Frick Off!" To Disney, and vows that Earth will rise up against the woke corporations who refused to purchase advertising on the social media platform.

Today we're discussing Jingle Smells, a bizarre Christmas movie produced by Sean Hannity and the conservative American Center for Law and Justice (Trump lawyers).

We follow Nick, a PTSD alcoholic veteran of Afghanistan who can't compete with his handsome, rugged Police Chief father Dusty (John Schneider)

When Dusty makes Nick get a job as a garbage collector, he begins stealing boxes of "cancelled" toys set for destruction by the Cancel Culture toy company CEO (Eric Roberts)

Nick is able to foster a secret relationship with poor kids in the neighborhood by giving them each a toy in exchange for their silence, and Santa teaches us that breaking the law is okay if it feels good.

TODAY: Killer Cop Derek Chauvin gets shanked in prison. Conspiracy theorists say it's because their pro-Chauvin documentary was too good.

ALSO: the right wing in Dublin riot after a suspected migrant allegedly slashes several people, including children.

We examine the effort to link the attack to asylum seekers en masse, and marvel at the American right wing's newfound love of fiery, destructive protests.

FINALLY: an unhinged screed against a "millennial" (zoomer) Tom Hanks-themed Hanksgiving party goes viral as one man rages against the degeneracy of hanging out with women.

Music:

Rid of Me - I'm So Lonesome I Could Die

Sunflo'er - Where Do My Children Go At Night

Misha Panfilov - Sweet Girl

FIRST: A protest at the DNC brings out the partisan Dems on twitter, who compare the demonstration to "actual colonizing" and quote architects of the Iraq war to support their points.

THEN: Trump's #1 enemy Michael Rappaport says even he might vote for Trump because of how expensive new cars are now. He also seems to be losing his mind to some degree

LAST: Fox News airs a piece on Target's "Black Santa in a Wheelchair" Christmas ornament and then criss-crosses the MDC Bingo board, merging with stories of the department store hamstringing local sheriffs, "banning" the word Christmas while also "sexualizing" Christmas--all set to footage of 2020 looters.

But famous loser Riley Gaines eventually pulls us back to the main point: why is Target allowed to sell this ornament?

TODAY: we catch up with the horrors Israel is inflicting on Gaza, and talk about the strange American political realignments happening around it:

Elon Musk endorses the antisemitic, white-nationalist "great replacement theory," and noted zionist Ben Shapiro comes to his defense, going as far as to proclaim the conspiracy theory to be true, but only for some groups of jews.

Also: TIK TOK TEENS TURNED ON BY TERRORISM??? We read the infamous Osama Bin Laden letter to dunk on kids these days but end up coming around on Sharia law

FINALLY: DC bus drivers call sick-out to avoid transporting a group of 900 zionists to their rally last week (according to a rally organizer)

We question the validity of the allegation, but approve of lying about a successful worker action anyway.

Music:

Ahmad Jamal - There's a Lull in my Life

Clear Path Ensemble - Future Fatigue

TODAY: James L Brooks assures us that Homer will continue to strangle the boy, and society holds together for another season

ALSO: Markwayne Mullen... Mullins? reads Sean O'Brien's mean tweets on the senate floor, and gets so upset he challenges the Teamsters President, My President, to a fight

FINALLY: Conservatives freak out after Ohio voters amend their state constitution to include reproductive and abortion rights.

We trace the current right-wing backlash to a 1996 pro-life rock music compilation, including rap metal grandfathers P.O.D. and Ms Jane Roe herself, reading a poem about how sad she is that she killed a million babies.

This week we invite Labor Reporter Alex Press and UAW member Logan Ausherman on the show to dissect the stand-up strike strategy employed by the union, what's in the tentative agreements, and how it may shape the future of labor organizing.

Read Alex's reporting here: https://jacobin.com/2023/10/uaw-big-three-strike-end-ta-contract

ALSO: Woke moralists have told Homer he cant strangle Bart anymore. And we wonder why society is crumbling...
