This week on The Final Word, Frangela is bringing the heat, the receipts, and the clarity you need to cut through the chaos. We’re not here to play—we’re here to break it all down with intelligence, insight, and a whole lot of truth.
We begin with the tragic killing of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University. The media calls him a “conservative activist,” but we’re digging deeper into the rise of political violence and the dangerous role far-right extremism and white nationalism continue to play in American discourse. This isn’t just a moment—it’s a warning.
Next, we unpack the staggering revision in job numbers: 911,000 fewer jobs than originally reported. That’s not a rounding error—that’s a reality check. What does it mean for working people, and why aren’t we talking about it more?
Then we turn to Michigan, where a judge dismissed charges against 15 Republicans who signed false certificates claiming to be Trump electors in 2020. The implications for accountability and election integrity are chilling.
Meanwhile, the Missouri House approved a new congressional map that conveniently erases one Democratic seat. Gerrymandering isn’t new, but this level of shamelessness deserves its own spotlight.
And in a move that has civil rights advocates sounding alarms, the Justice Department is pushing to build a national voter roll database and share it with Homeland Security. We’re asking: who benefits, and who gets left out?
Finally, Trump brushed off the release of his 2003 birthday letter to Jeffrey Epstein as a “dead issue.” But when it comes to proximity to power and predators, we believe the public deserves more than dismissal.
It’s been a craptastic week, but Frangela’s got the final word—smart, sharp, and unapologetically real. Tune in, because understanding the mess is the first step to cleaning it up.
