🎙️ The democrat party's strategy is built on crisis exploitation. Every major event is used to lock in irresponsible, temporary, and unworkable socialist policies. Then, the escalating war between federal agents and anarchist protesters in cities like Portland. From an ICE agent's brilliant tactic of pepper-spraying an inflatable costume's air vent (a move clearly inspired by internet videos of people spraying fart spray into cost...

🎙️ Democrats' complete and utter failure to message the government shutdown isn’t surprising. What is surprising is the level of political self-clowning on display. From saying the quiet part out loud to missing their talking points, this undisciplined caucus is cracking at the seams, already.
⚡The biggest mistake Democrats made was giving the keys to the car—the entire federal government—to OMB Director Russ Vought and Presid...

🫏 AOC appears to be already planning on taking Schumer’s office, Cory Booker’s unbelievable sincerity and democrats ‘searching’ for the Republicans in Congress, the coverage of th...

🎙️ Chuck Schumer's total inability to rein in the far-left is why we’re here. Democrats are now a collection of lunatics willing to throw the entire federal government into chaos. The fellas explain how the left is making completely unreasonable demands and why democrats are the ones creating a "grave emergency." This is what happens when you pander to your base instead of governing.
💥 The Progrum reviews some of the best audi...

🎙️ The progressive coalition is fracturing across media, culture, and politics and causing a total collapse on the left. The fellas examine things like Greta Thunberg’s flotilla and the colliding ideals of liberals all over the world. FYI, Gaza isn’t super into the gays - a lesson the flotilla is learning the hard way.

🎙️ There is an obvious uptick in recent and unprovoked attacks on ICE, including yesterday's shooting in Dallas. These are not isolated incidents but a symptom of a larger problem. Just look at these leftists carving phrases into their bullets, just like Luigi Mangione (who was celebrated as a folk hero by the left). Democratic politicians who are actively demonizing ICE agents and portraying them as Nazis, the Gestapo, or slave p...

🎙️ With Donald Trump headed to the UN General Assembly, the fellas reflect on how well Trump has played his hand with our European allies. Getting 5% spending commitments and action is no small task, and we’re reminded that Trump was right about everything.
⚡️ Energy Secretary Chris Wright chats with the fellas about where this administration is headed with cutting red tape and outlines so many of the mistakes from previous ad...

🎙️ Weird that the same people who are calling foul on ABC’s suspension of Jimmy Kimmel were the ones cheering for the silencing of Roseanne Barr, Gina Carano and even deplatforming President Trump. We offer a crash course in how the First Amendment works, and it doesn’t just work when you want it to.

🎙️ ABC News' relationship with this Utah shooter is mind-blowing. The fellas unpack this viral clip where the anchor’s sympathy is for the assassin and then attempts to paint him as some sort of thoughtful lover. It's totally appalling.
⚡ ️So, a protestor thinks she’s married to Luigi Mangione’s AI, and this is more than just bizarre. There is some deep, underlying psychosis on the left and the fellas dig in deep on what’s hap...

🎙️ After reflecting on the tragic events of last week, the fellas have some thoughtful takes on Charlie Kirk, left-wing violence and how the democrats lack of leadership is what got us here. It was an honest look into how they were each dealing with the reality of political violence that Ruthless crew now lives with every day.
⚡️ The real outrage is how so many politicians are comparing both sides. Smug is gonna freak if he he...

The media coverage around Charlie Kirk is beyond the pale. From democrats blaming Charlie for his own assassination, to gleeful leftist celebrations around his passing. We don’t expect much from journos at this point, but even we were appalled at the coverage.
Between MSNBC hosts like Jen Psaki and Katy Tur, the coverage turned our collective stomachs. The fellas break down the violent political moment that we find ourselves in, ...

🎙️ The brutal stabbing of a Ukrainian refugee in Charlotte is absolutely horrific, as is the video. This repeat offender has zero mentions in the New York Times, which is such an indictment of the state of mass media in 2025. The fellas cover President Trump’s comments, as well as the irresponsible statement from the Charlotte mayor in response.

🎙️ It’s a fun time Friday and the fellas have some of the best clips from the week that was. Like Jasmine Crockett in maximum code-switching form, and Sen. Tim Kaine not having any idea where our rights derive from. Also, the Progrum recently learned that all of Wisconsin will shut down without illegal immigrants.

🎙️ Dems are getting crushed by good ideas from the Trump administration, and their solution to push back is creating songs. We have yet to find a recording of this song, but we will not rest until the new “we shine blue” bop is in our hands. They also have a Kilmar Armando García song, and we have a clip of it.

🎙️ The fellas dig into how poorly democrat run cities are and how it relates to the tragedy in Minneapolis. And not just at the catholic school, there were three murders in the preceding 13 hours in that city. Democrats know that lack of law enforcement is hurting people and they just don’t care. Holmes, Smug and Ashbrook discuss why so many democrat elected leaders turn a blind eye to what’s happening in their towns.

🎙️ Trump has somehow made the democrat party one that supports crime - what a Jedi mind trick. We break down the best clips from Monday’s signing of an EO on crime. We look at Mamdami’s proposals on crime and contrast those to what Trump is doing on crime in D.C.
