Kash Loves Animals, Trump Loves AI, Truckers Hate Trump plus Arch Drones & Trump to destroy NIH, Kennedy Center, the News

On this episode of the Red State Update podcast, Jackie and Dunlap holler about:

Kash Patel lowers the standards of the FBI, but raises Google searches for word "b**tiality"

Trump bans CNN, MSNow, Politico from White House

Truckers and farmers mad at Trump, hopefully. Welcome to the resistance, truckers and farmers!

Trump seizing control of National Institutes of Health funding. Money only goes where it aligns with administration policy. The policy is "RFK Jr.'s first draft folder but more Bibley"

Healthcare costs rising, premiums tripling, millions losing coverage, insurance companies makin that money.

Trump really gonna tear that Kennedy Center down unless he gets his name on it. At least he's finally being honest about something.

Heat Dome! Climate Change! Al Gore's fault? Possibly. Go on Red State Update, Al Gore!

Arch Drones – Trump's Triumphal Trumphal Arch to have snipers, attack drones, sounds like something a five-year old would come up with, if five-year olds like gaudy architecture.

Trummp broke America. He took all the good stuff and sucked all the good out of it.

New poll has Trump underwater in Tennessee, finally. Marsha Blackburn probably still fine.

JD Vance Wants Another Chance – our new YA novel that nobody would ever read

Diesel prices, Iran War, Canada still standing up to Trump

Ohio Senate candidate John Husted says poor people "aren't good at navigating the real world" and don't understand money. John Husted isn't good at running for office and don't understand poor people.

Trump doublin down on AI as its popularity craters. Expect a Truth with a link to an Ed Sheeran playlist any minute.

Trump wants to rename AI and wants your input: Super Intelligence, Extreme Intelligence, Supreme Intelligence. What about "Water-guzzling Kook-run Ponzi Scheme?" Somebody call AI Force!

Pete Hegseth's "Send Me" tour in Texas. Quoting the Bible to Marines, running stairs, pushing Christian nationalist military messaging. Nobody likes him or the Iran War, but Trump won't fire him because they both love fat jokes. That's his boy!

Anti-Trump rednecks Jackie Broyles and Dunlap have been yelling about the news, politics, and pop-culture in a bunker underneath Jackie's Market (now closed) in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, since 2005.

Re-uploaded the file to fix some audio issues (we hope.) Thank you kindly!

Welcome to the Red State Update podcast for September 14, 2026. This week, Jackie and Dunlap yell about:

At the weird RNC Trumptime convention, Trump says he wants to bribe you with $5000 of socialism money to keep Republicans in power in the midterms. Nobody ain't getting that money. Remember all the other money we're supposed to get? Jackie does.

Big businesses got tariff refunds, Todd Blanche is making sure the January 6thers get their billion dollar payout, but healthcare, SNAP, food for hungry kids – no money for none of that.

Republicans are tired of being called racists but not tired of being racists.

Canada is friends with the EU now, and blocked America and deleted all their pics together.

Would you pay $35,000 for a picture with JD Vance? Kansas GOP Senator and former OB-GYN Roger Marshall sued 700 people for debts and arrested folks for bills as low as a hundred bucks. Also why do so many Republican politicians live in Florida and not the states they represent? https://www.instagram.com/reel/DdL8dMtFQfh/?stkn=ZW54d3RwaWJheWFn

Nebraska using computer algorithms to kick disabled people off Medicaid. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DdL8dMtFQfh/?stkn=ZW54d3RwaWJheWFn

Trump's own inspector general said Aligator Alcatraz's facility's "calming cages" were inhumane. https://newrepublic.com/post/215398/ice-locked-people-cages-size-phone-booths-alligator-alcatraz

Mark Wayne Mullin don't care if they have a criminal history or not. Is he talking about the immigrants he wants to lock up or the ICE agents he wants to hire? Tune in to find out!

Is AI gonna destroy the world, save the world, destroy the world and then save it, destroy the world and then Chinese AI will destroy it again, or just sorta help out with emails and spreadsheets? AI companies want to pump the brakes (WHAT'S IN THIS FOR THEM!), Trump says only a smart president can save us, and a bunch of freaky-lookin billionaires are tryin to force all of us to get on board with whatever bull hockey they're sellin. Data centers are destroying farms, small communities, Black communities. People are mad. I guess they're forgetting our smart president who will save us all. Or destroy us all. One or the other.

The Big Beautiful Bill to yank $1 trillion from Medicare. Republicans are gonna suffer too, and it's hitting soon. It's gonna be a rough winter.

Sex-offender pastor leads a prayer at a North Carolina GOP rally for Senate candidate Michael Whatley, where Dr. Oz also spoke.

James Tallarico, Ken Paxton, Ted Cruz

Mitch McConnell is back! Tanned, rested and ready!

Nearly 200 women have died from ectopic pregnancies 'cause Republicans don't want women controlling their own bodies.

Sitcom characters you never see.

On a special Labor Day Weekend of Red State Update, Jackie and Dunlap yell about:

• Trump naming stuff – putting his name on arches, ballrooms, Kennedy Centers, doing dumb horse hockey like "Lake America" while gas prices, grocery bills, healthcare costs keep rising
• Newly hired ICE agents brought on with no vetting, no background checks, meanwhile people suffer more and more violence, wrongful detentions, and deaths in ICE facilities
• How much would you pay for a ICE robot dog?
• Who's responsible for the death of young Haitian immigrant Pierre Damas Bel? The Supreme Court? Stephen Miller? Trump? ICE? All of us? Yeah, take your pick.
• Trump's war on mail-in voting, a USPS whistleblower, and the outlook for the midterm elections
• People are over Pete Hegseth, including his generals, enlisted folks, senators. Will anybody do anything? Haha naw. We'll just keep letting him testosterone everybody, blow up boats, mess up Iran.
• Is it the end times? Let's ask J.D. Vance.
• Laura Loomer managed to racist her way into the headlines again
• Fox ain't got Maria Bartiromo to kick around no more. And by kick I mean stop from sendin' Trump internal memos tellin' Fox anchors to shut up about the stolen election bull hockey because it cost them a billion bucks.
• DOGE was great at wastin' money, hirin' people named Big Balls
• Healthcare costst are skyrocketing, farmers are in a bad way, and the deficit is higher than our brains can conceive of
• It's Labor Day! Merry Christmas.
• Batman villains vs. Trump administration villains
• How old is Tommy Lee Jones?
• If it's September how come it's 100 degrees?

This week on Red State Update, Jackie and Dunlap wail in grief about:

Dolly Parton, the only person left who could bring this country together, and her work with the oppressed, the underprivileged, and Porter Wagoner. Plus her movies, her songs, Tim Curry, and why Dolly's legacy goes beyond singin, actin, Dollywood, and Straight Talk. Plus Whorehouse, Jim Nabors, and how everyone's Mom's kitchen used to look like the Trio album cover.

• Friendships with Canada never last, but Lake America is forever
• Supreme Court don't seem to mind what Trump does with mail-in ballots, elections, democracy. DOJ hires a lawyer once convicted of election-site hacking
• Wild horses couldn't keep Trump away — Protected wild horses are sold for slaughter while Trump lets beef imports come in from wherever, American farmers be damned, even if we got to do a Beef recall — 30,000 pounds of Argentine beef recalled after sale in Florida and Texas.
• ABC / Rosie / FCC — ABC is airing Rosie O'Donnell and suing Trump's FCC after previously kissin trump ass
• Secret Service is reportedly alarmed by Natalie Harp's letters.
• Trump will tear down the Kennedy Center if they don't put his name on it.
• Michael Cohen: still terrible
• Our health and what's left of it:
• RURAL Michigan hospitals closing or cutting services after Medicaid cuts.

o Measles — U.S. measles cases are at their highest level since 1991, with two deaths reported. RFK Jr. is tied to conspiracy-tinged comments about measles deaths. Byron Donalds blames spread on illegal immigration.

• ICE arrests — ICE arrests surged—they're arrestin people with no criminal convictions to make their dumb damn quotas.
• More folks in immigrant camps than ATL population
• Deaf migrants — Deaf migrants deported without sign-language interpreters
• A mile of border infrastructure in Big Bend reportedly costs more than the park's annual budget.
• Asylum visas — Administration actions include revoking visas for asylum seekers.
• Texas / Musk / Paxton — Elon Musk reportedly plans to spend $200 million to help Ken Paxton in Texas.
• Ohio Sleazebag Max Miller threatens his father-in-law with blackmail
• Georgia / Mike Collins — Mike Collins has another aide linked to racist stuff
• Alabama / Tuberville — Tuberville says he will not debate Doug Jones because he don't understand what debates are
• Gary / Memphis power
• Hegseth / Pentagon Hegseth hires trolls to go after enemies & critics while firing Stars and Stripes staff
• USS Doris Miller — They may name a carrier after Trump instead of Black WWII hero Doris Miller.
• USS Lincoln finally returning after a nine-month deployment.
• A sailor who jumped from a ship is reportedly facing discipline.
• Hegseth fired Gen. Randy George after Kid Rock flyover investigation.
• Sean Duffy show — nobody watchin this youtube crap. Finally something I identify with Sean Duffy about
• Spider-Man vs. Jake Lang in Minnesota.
• Jeffries / Kushner get together. These are the only two people left who will get along now that Dolly is gone.
• Trump approval — Trump approval stands at 35%, disapproval at 61%, net -26. That's real bad and yet should be worse.
• Darlene Graham, IRAN vs Economic D-Day, Mad Farmers

Kehinde Wiley painting: State Dept takes down a painting of Dominicans in the Dominican embassy by the artist of Obama's presidential portrait. They called the paining "very woke" and "aesthetically terrifying." They took it down but first they hid it behind a tarp with a US flag on it. Leah Campos, Rachel Campos-Duffy's sister and Sean Duffy's sis-in-law, is the U.S. ambassador to the Dominican Republic, called it an example of "globalist and woke ideologies." What is woke ideology? I know it when I see it.

In this episode of the Red State Update podcast, Jackie and Dunlap yell about :

People Turning Against AI, Trump Data Centers & AI · GOP internal polls: data centers as unpopular as nuclear waste · They're stickin' em in rural towns and black neighborhoods because they thought they could do whatever they want there

· AI billionaires look crazy · AI is "for old people" - young people don't like it

Flock license-plate-reading cameras being used by police to track partners/exes · Musk visits Memphis, site of his AI Data Center Destruction, and laughs like a villain about ruining water

America Turns on Trump

• · Trump at 66% disapproval rate · BBC, ABC, Kennedy Center lawsuits: the US taxpayers are paying for this mess
• · Treasury Department turnover: people (TRUMP APPOINTEES) jumping ship before they get forced into doin illegal stuff · Trump loves Kim Jong Un so much
• Immigration & ICE · ICE targeting legal immigrants and green card holders, people showing up to immigration appointments, getting off planes · Trump voter whose wife was taken by ICE at airport: "I didn't know they'd come after me" President Pete Hegseth and Mrs. President Pete Hegseth
• Is Hegseth running for president? How do you win after losing a war?
• Why is his wife so involved in his job? Attending top-secret meetings, getting on the leaky Signal chats… she was his producer at Fox News so he probably don't know how to do nothing without her. So whose idea is it to fire all the black folks and women from the military? The anti-trans slurs? The testosterone? Also, what does Hegseth's woman-hating preacher think? Natalie Harp
• Jon Ossoff gave Natalie Harp the spotlight this week. Before this I just knew her as the woman who prints out racist memes for Trump to Truth in the middle of the night. Did not know that she:
• Wrote fan letters to George W. Bush (I mean, so did Jackie, but)
• Jumped in the SUV trunk to stay with Trump (SUVs don't have trunks but whatever, just pretend) "with all my heart, Natalie"—nobody ever signed a letter to Trump that way, not his wives, not his children Plus: · Desantis bud and Florida official Mike Caruso arrested for gross child abuse · Todd Blanche confirmed as AG /top pxxophile protector · Texas Gov. Abbott leaning into Islamophobiamania 2026
• · but Andy Ogles lost Tennessee race despite anti-Muslim campaign · and in Michigan, Abdul El-Sayed leading Republican opponent by 9 points · McCarthy worried about midterms, says GOP "doesn't have a message" · Ballroom – will the Supreme Court let Trump keep buildin'? · USS Abraham Lincoln conditions are horrifyin and typical for this administration · Inflation, healthcare, Dracula Dead and Loving It

For 20 years, Jackie Broyles and Dunlap have been yelling about politics from a bunker underneath Jackie's Market (now closed) in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. They are former conservatives who couldn't understand why the South would vote for Donald Trump, a loudmouth yankee and the living opposite of Andy Griffith. Now they are leftie liberal TDS-infected snowflakes and madder than ever.

Thank you kindly for looking at us on the computer.

On this episode of the Red State Update podcast, Jackie Broyles and Dunlap yell about:

Trump chickens out in Turkey: After possible threats, Trump leaves Karoline Leavitt, Steven Cheung, reporters, a bunch of 'em on the targeted plane while he gets snuck into the decoy plane with Hegeth and Natalie Harp by hidin' in the catering cart. Some party! In non-related news, Karoline Leavitt quits.

Todd Blanche confirmed as Attorney General. America's top three lawyers are all "former" Trump lawyers. So get ready for more jailed innocent Olympians, taxpayer-funded stupid lawsuits, and some real dicey national security emergency midterms.

ICE continues reign of bumbling, violent terror: America continues throwing folks in detention centers that shouldn't be there, now including Iranian green card holding families; pointing guns at folks for no reason; hirin bounty hunters to shake down the self-deported; and coming soon, electric shock gloves.

Trump signs executive order to help kids with awful parents get sick: Trump signs an executive order on kid's vaccines to make RFK Jr and other autism truthers happy.

If you pay $100,000 and suffer through Trump's Truths, you can get real rich: Trump's Truth Social going under, but making corruption money by selling early access to Trump posts for up to $100,000 a month so they can make bank off manipulating the stock market. "Extraordinary, corrupt, unconstitutional."

Our Soldiers Continue to Suffer Under Warfighter Pete: Hegseth continues showing he don't care about the folks in our military. We got folks jumping off boats, losing their minds, no food, no supplies, no gettin off the boat, stuck in the Gulf for weeks and nobody knows why they're there as the Iran War continues allegedly and Hegseth plugs testosterone, violence, and stupidity.

Mike Lindell, Loser: MyPillow guy loses Wisconsin governor's race.

Republicans Showing Their Ass: Oklahoma barely passes anti-child marriage bill. RNC to bankroll accused abuser Max Miller. Never back down! Double down in fact. No matter what you done! That's the Trump Way.

Americans Pay For Trump's Gaudy Vanity Crap: Trump's White House remodelin and gold appliqués to cost taxpayers nearly a billion bucks.

Plus Paul Revere and the Raiders, Foster Brooks, bigots and billionaires, and peein' on the Constitution.

This week, Jackie and Dunlap yell about:

Trump's second term has moved into its painting horse statues gold and targeting Olympians for messin up reflecting pools phase (This was recorded before Jeanine Pirro and Justice Department dropped charges against Olympian David Hearn.)

Plus more of some of the dumbest horse-hockeyin' news of 2026 so far, from Fauci's Fifth Amendment defense at his sham "watch me yell" trial, to peeks at the midterms (Is Andy Ogles in trouble in Tennessee?).

CONTINUING: the Iran War, Trump's pardons, high priced gas 'n' groceries.

Also: Medicare cuts and the Epstein files, Todd Blanche and Ghislaine Maxwell, Stephen Miller and what "normal people" look like.

Oh right and is Mitch McConnell alive?

Red State Update: Trump Diarrhea, Hegseth Testosterone, Iran War Victory Marred by Ongoing War

On this episode of Red State Update, Jackie and Dunlap yell about: Trump Administration has finally gone too far for trying to blame Trump diarrhea on Taco Bell. Taylor Farms gave Trump inauguration money. That's why your bagged lettuce sits in a stew of diarrhea runoff and weevils. Democrats Fighting With Younger, Better Looking, More Gregarious Democrats The Case For Purity Tests Secret Service mad at JD Vance for using helicopters to get his son to his golf lessons. Actually now that you mention it we're kind of mad at JD Vance too. The Iran War Spirals Further Into Bloodshed and Chaos with no sign Trump knows what he's doing and Pete Hegseth is too busy testing testosterone and hiding US soldier injuries and casualties from citizens. Todd Blanche meets with Epstein victims. Haven't they suffered enough? At least Ghislaine Maxwell got a comfier jail cell. FBI won't investigate ICE killings, apparently ICE doesn't do background checks after we learned about spousal and child abuse claims from the ex-wife of ICE cop David Brouillette, who fatally shot Johan Sebastian Durán Guerrero in Biddeford, Maine. Plus billionaires and bibles, Marsha Blackburn and Andy Ogles, healthcare and data centers, and the Tennessee Charlie Kirk Highway that took a highway away from veterans gives the highway back to veterans and now Charlie Kirk has another Tennessee Charlie Kirk Highway.

Jackie and Dunlap also discuss their journey from YouTube kneejerk conservatives to Never Trump podcasters to smelly woke hippie lefties. Dunlap remembers a Kid Rock song he forgot about. Tulsi Gabbard has a brother. Trump mad about leaks but nobody can investigate for him because they're all leakers.

Trump-hating rednecks Jackie Broyles and Dunlap have been yelling about politics, the news, all that mess, since 2005, from a bunker underneath Jackie's Market in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.

We interrupt our regular already-recorded podcast with the news that Senator Lindsey Graham has died at 71. We came back again in the mornin' for this one. Listen how sleepy!

We talk about his war-hawkin, "if we nominate Trump we will get destroyed and we will deserve it," the Disneyland bubble wand photo, plus even more Mitch McConnell and Kash's copy-pastin'.

Then in the second part that we recorded first:

· ICE and immigration violence — the deaths of Lorenzo Salgado and Mohammed Nazir Pateawal, National Guard shootings in Memphis, and Mark Wayne Mullin defendin' the indefensible.

· Tariffs, Iran, lost tourism money, the Big Beautiful Bill's big beautiful Medicaid and disability cuts—how much is this costing us?

· Marcia Blackburn's fortune-cookie ad

· Pete Hegseth targets Black people again, RFK's podcast features anti-vaxxer child murderers, JD Vance still awkward, Trump's Qatar jet fails the Secret Service test, Trump's still mad about the Kennedy Center

· Trump gets a bridge named after him in East Tennessee. Even Scott Bessent was at the ceremony!

· Platner's out, Epstein files locked up, the Federal Election Commission is fired
