Baby, on this week’s Something Ain’t Right, we are sixteen months deep into the Trump administration’s very special, very targeted “Let’s See How Much Harm We Can Do to Black Folks Before Lunch” initiative — and trust us, the math is mathing in the worst possible way. We’re talking policies so blatant, so hostile, so proudly anti‑Black that even common sense packed a bag and left the country.
Then — because apparently we weren’t scared enough — America’s most infamous nuclear site is being dusted off and plugged back in to power the AI boom. That’s right: radioactive glow‑in‑the‑dark energy meets unregulated machine overlords. What could go wrong?
We also get into the studies showing how income, debt, and access to basic needs shape mental health outcomes — or how raising the minimum wage and expanding food stamps can literally save lives. Turns out when people can afford food and rent, they’re less likely to despair. Who knew. (Everyone. Everyone knew.)
And finally, Trump has now exempted some of the nation’s biggest polluters from air‑quality rules — and all it took was an email. An email. Meanwhile we can’t even get a customer service rep to answer the phone, but Exxon can get a hall pass before breakfast.
It’s chaos, it’s corruption, it’s cruelty — and we’re here to drag it into the light with a whole lot of side‑eye.
