On this episode of The Vocal Minority with Nick & Steve...
The guys dive into the escalating push by House Democrats, led by Rep. Jamie Raskin, to use the 25th Amendment as leverage against President Trump, including demands for formal cognitive testing and a nonstop debate over his mental fitness.
They then unpack the bizarre feud between President Trump and Pope Leo XIV, zeroing in on Trump’s claim that the pope is weak on crime while asking a very simple question, can a pope even be weak on crime when he’s not a cop, judge, or lawmaker?
They also confront the viral image of Trump posting himself as Jesus and how evangelical and Catholic audiences are reacting, while his MAGA base seems completely unfazed. Vice President JD Vance steps in to downplay the controversy, calling Trump’s comments “a joke” and insisting it’s fine to disagree with the pope, while many are left wondering how that squares with his own Catholic identity.
From there, they kick off the “You Pick the Craziest Story” trilogy, starting with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s wild confession about dismembering a dead raccoon on the side of the road and keeping the penis for later evaluation. We then hear the story of Greg Phillips, the former FEMA worker who says the devil convinced him to dump his drinking water so he could lighten the load of his backpack, and how he almost died as a result.
From there, it's straight into discussing Dr. Oz repeating Trump’s claim that Diet Coke kills grass, so it must obviously kill cancer cells, especially when it’s freshly squeezed Diet Coke!?!?
The guys talk about Trump’s $10 billion lawsuit against The Wall Street Journal getting tossed out by a Florida judge without prejudice and why the courts remain the last real line of defense in a rapidly normalizing political climate.
And finally, they wrap up the discussion with the eerie moment astronaut Christina Koch appears to freeze during a post-Artemis mission press conference, asking whether she was stuck looking for the script or deeply moved by what she saw in space.
All of this and so much more on this episode of "The Vocal Minority with Nick & Steve."
