Today's monologue is about Trump's promised massive hikes in tariffs on goods coming from Mexico, Canada and China starting on the first day he's in office. John also talks about the latest idiotic cabinet picks for the Trump Administration. Next, he welcomes back Imara Jones who's the creator of TransLash Media, a cross-platform, journalism and narrative organization, which produces content to shift the current culture of hostility towards transgender people in the US. She hosts the WEBBY-nominated, TransLash Podcast as well as the investigative, limited series, The Anti-Trans Hate Machine: A Plot Against Equality. They discuss the bullying of Rep. Sarah McBride by GOP members of congress. And finally, John takes listener calls about Trump and other news from the Evil Army of the Night.
