The Necessary Conversation

Stupid Weaklings


Listen Later

📌 Bob is back this week to finally discuss the Epstein list among other things.

đź‘€ Trump vs. the Epstein List
Trump calls his own supporters “stupid” and “weaklings” for continuing to believe in the Epstein client list—a conspiracy he pushed for years. MAGA influencers are burning hats and turning on him. Then The Wall Street Journal drops a 2003 birthday letter from Trump to Epstein, allegedly including a naked woman doodle and lines like:

“A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret.”
 Trump sues the WSJ for $10 billion—an unprecedented move by a sitting president that could force him into a deposition.

🩺 Trump’s Health
Swollen ankles. Hand bruises. Makeup cover-ups. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt blames “chronic venous insufficiency.” Is this normal aging—or something worse?

🎤 Colbert Cancelled
Stephen Colbert’s Late Show gets axed just days after slamming CBS’s $16M settlement with Trump. He won’t be replaced—the show’s just gone. Trump gloats. Is this political influence or corporate cowardice?

🕊️ Israel Bombs Catholic Church
An IDF strike kills civilians and damages the Holy Family Catholic Church in Gaza. Pope Leo XIV calls for a ceasefire. Will this shift U.S. Catholic opinion on the war?

đź§Š ICE Detains U.S. Citizens and a Child
ICE detains a 25-year-old Army vet, a federal attorney, and a 15-year-old boy—all U.S. citizens. The child was sent to Alligator Alcatraz. No charges. No accountability. Is ICE violating the Constitution?

📺 Bye Bye Big Bird
Trump signs the Rescissions Act of 2025, slashing $1.1 billion from public broadcasting. NPR and PBS brace for layoffs, station closures, and disappearing shows. Is this the end of Sesame Street?

đź’Ą Simmer Down
We go full metaphysical: does consciousness come from the brain—or somewhere else?

🎙️ Join Chad, Haley, Bob, and Mary Lou for the weekly family brawl over politics, media, and reality itself.
