AOC is walking back her stance on "short kings", and body shaming altogether, after going viral for making fun of White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller and saying that he looks like a 4'10" little man despite being exactly one-foot taller. We react to her attempt to save herself and it's just one, big, failed BS-fest.

Bari Weiss, the new editor-in-chief of CBS News, outlined in a note to staff her 10 journalistic principles that she will implement as the new editor-in-chief. It will be interesting to see if these principles, which we break down for you, are all just talk or all real action.

A viral video has been circulating of an elementary teacher singing the monkey version of happy birthday to a black child, and there was a lot of outrage. We got a caller that believes the teacher was racist and we got other callers that couldn't disagree more. Is the monkey version racist?

You get a sign, everyone gets a sign! Throughout the show today, we had an old-fashioned van drop in Bartlett giving out signs promoting support for our law enforcement and the National Guard's arrival. We checked in with Tommy Rowe Jr. on how fast the signs went, and we put out an APB for the mystery man behind a CNN reporter with his own sign!

Also on the show: we check in with syndicated columnist Ron Hart to discuss several sto...

“We are going to bulldoze the criminal elements in this city," Attorney General Pam Bondi told law enforcement officials shortly after landing in Memphis today. We listened to her live remarks on the show, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth's comments, and WH Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller. Bondi confirmed 53 criminals have been arrested in Day 2 of Memphis Safe Task Force, to the dismay of every criminal, of course.

Common sense military standards are back, according to Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, and it's being chalked up by the media as "fat-shaming". The View is saying Hegseth's speech was "not uplifting", but we counter that argument by saying accountability and high standards ARE uplifting. 

Also on the show: we break down the probable government shutdown and if that will affect the Memphis Safe Task Force, Tina Turner's statue in...

Anti-National Guard weekend protests in Memphis, tips from DA Steve Mulroy when encountering NG troops, and even State Senator Brent Taylor representing Trump's Memphis Safe Task Force in DC tomorrow is all heating up for the week. Everyone has an opinion with the impending arrival of troops, and that includes Jake.

National Guard troops are expected to be in Memphis by next Monday, according to Governor Bill Lee who held a press conference this morning. Some of the details are eyebrow raising: they won't be armed unless MPD requests it, they won't be arresting anyone, and the city will also be receiving a $100M grant for safety resources. 

Also on the show, Yaffee from The Yaffee Program on WVNN joined the show to discuss the two Charlie...

County Clerk Wanda Halbert owes taxpayers over $30,000 and hasn’t paid rent on her Millington branch office since 2023. A statement from Millington City Manager Frankie Dakin comes a day after the clerk’s Whitehaven branch closed indefinitely after a report of possible mold. You shocked?

Jimmy Kimmel's return to late night earned a combined total of 6.3 million broadcast viewers and more than 26 million views on YouTube for his opening monologue. He teared up (no surprise), went after President Trump for shutting down his speech, and even doubled down that he was making a joke. We break it all down for you. 

Also on the show, we talk to WBAP reporter Mike Traina about the ICE-targeted shooting in Dallas, Texas...

A Trans Cane Wielder, a Soviet sympathizer with a nose ring, and a masked-up hairy armpit woman walk into a bar. They are just a few of the highlight speeches during last night's Shelby County Commission meeting opposing the National Guard. This isn't a skit, it wasn't a joke, these are real people living among you that had some of the craziest statements you've EVER heard.

In the Arizona sun, tens of thousands stood in line over the weekend with the hopes to get in State Farm Stadium for Charlie Kirk's memorial service. Roughly 90,000 were able to get in with close to 10,000+ of overflow having to go to Desert Diamond Arena, numbers not even Elvis Presley or Muhammad Ali reached. Two witnesses who were at the memorial joined the show, Rusty Humphries and Lydia Fisher, to give us their account.

Disney+ has lost subscriptions with the move of Jimmy Kimmel getting taken off the air, which follows all the politicians, celebrities, and even the other late night hosts claiming President Trump is behind it all. We break down why people are crazy for being convinced this is evidence of a dictatorship. 

Also on the show, former MSNBC analyst Matthew Dowd looked really bad during his guest appearance on Katie Couric's podcast...

How ironic that the same people that celebrate Charlie Kirk's death for his speech, are the same people shocked and outraged that Jimmy Kimmel lost his job for his own speech? ABC has had enough of Kimmel after insinuating on air the Tyler Robinson was MAGA and pulled the plug early. 

Also on the show, quotes "we don't need the military, we need MONEY" have been expressed by Memphis Democrats who are totally against federal he...

More media spin for Tyler Robinson. On CNN, Montel Williams denied that the assassin of conservative activist Charlie Kirk had political objectives, stating that he believed the love-torn killer was more driven to defend his trans lover because of Kirk's beliefs than anything political.

ABC Reporter Matt Gutman has been blasted on social media. Why? Alleged assassin Tyler Robinson and his transgender partner's texts were released and he oddly tried to make it sound mushy and touching. This all comes after text messages between the couple were released showing Robinson revealing his plan before the shooting and after the shooting. Should Gutman be fired by ABC?

President Trump announced plans during the show, signing the “Memphis Safe Task Force" memorandum alongside Senators Bill Hagerty and Marsha Blackburn and Governor Bill Lee.

Don't believe Memphians want this? We take several callers wel...

President Trump CONFIRMED that the National Guard is going to Memphis first, bypassing other cities like Chicago. Mayor Paul Young, DA Steve Mulroy, and County Mayor Lee Harris were vocal about their disapproval right after the announcement but on the show, many callers are welcoming federal assistance.

One day has passed and the main suspect's picture has been released by FBI officials, yet no arrests have been made for the duration of today's episode. President Trump said it's practically a nationwide manhunt, and more reactions have been released like Joe Rogan's, Charlie Sheen's and other notable figures.
