Head in the Office

The boys explore the AI drama, including calls for regulation on AI companies and the recent incidents that spawned them. Later, the boys provide brief economic updates as they pertain to the Iran war, and a new $2.8 billion arms deal that would send 40,000 2,000lbs bombs to Israel at the expense of the U.S. tax payer.

NOTE: The Mitch McConnell segment was recorded before he announced his return to the Senate. The Iran War continues and is becoming a full-blown regional war as the Houthis in Yemen just took over the Bab al-Mandab Strait and explosions disrupt the Saudi East-West pipeline that carries ~5% of the world's oil. Get ready for price hikes!! At the RNC Midterm convention, Trump said the quiet part out loud when he acknowledged that if Iran had a nuke, we wouldn’t be bombing them anymore. The boys also touch on some extras such as Mitch McConnell still being absent, the wave of Islamophobia, and Jasmine Crockett honoring Chris Brown with a spot in the Congressional record.

The boys do a retrospective on the first Kirkiversary since Charlie Kirk’s death. Kirkification, right-wing feuds, and the attempts to turn him into a martyr have plagued us for the past year, and the boys simply must engage in the discourse. Then, Mike Rogers' cynical use of 9/11 is discussed along with her terrible record after the 9/11 attacks.

The boys discuss why Hakeem Jeffries is unfit to be Speaker of the House through his newly unveiled 2027 agenda, his endless fighting with the progressive and conservative wings of the Democratic Party, and his overall lack of messaging and leadership ability. They also talk about a new KFILE drop about old deleted tweets from Will Lawrence, his broader struggles with the DCCC & CBC, and John Fetterman being Israel's strongest soldier. Stay tuned until the end of the show for discussion of the 2026 Socialism Conference discourse and early thoughts about the anniversary of Charlie Kirk's death (Kirkiversary).

Nico & Daniel from the Political Integrity Project (and @stocking_the_capitol) join the show to discuss the truly cataclysmic amount of money spent during primary season (especially in the races featuring Abdul El-Sayed and Angie Nixon), the tsunami of money that will be spent in the general election, and the power of the AI lobby (and how they are combating it!).
