This is the story of the wad. As a maintenance engineer, he hears things differently. To the untrained ear, everything on his shop floor might sound fine, but he can hear gears grinding or a belt slipping. So he steps in to fix the problem at hand before it gets out of hand. And he knows Granger's got the right product he needs to get the job done, which is music to his ears. Call clickranger.com or just stop by Granger for the ones who get it done.

In a headline that's shocking to 0% of the population with an IQ of 100 or higher, the Daily Beast is now reporting that Kinkel's McTaco tits is a big old beta. Former ABC News reporter Terry Moran said Trump's alpha male act dissolves when in contact with Russian President Vladimir Putin fired ABC star Trump's alpha male act falls apart the second he's around Putin. And we all saw it. We saw it with our own eyes on Friday this Putin put a shock collar around Kankels and walked him up and down while Kankels sold the United States military down the river.
E
It's, it's not shocking because Trump has zero respect, zero respect for the military. But the before and after pictures, I mean, Trump, like, I think he loves them. I think he thinks they're good buddies and they're both strong men.
D
I think he's scared of him.
E
Pumps and I think Trump's dick is in Vladimir Putin's hands. I mean, I think there's no question.
D
I think he's terrified of him. And he goes and he seeks confirmation, but he, Putin has the goods on him, no question. I don't think this is like, I think he wants to like him. He wants to curry favor with him so that the goods will not be revealed. Next up, Gavin Newsome. You guys, somebody's finally fighting. Somebody is finally showing the snowflake titty baby whining, psychotic MAGA movement how stupid they are. How stupid their Leader is. How stupid. All the memes and all this and all this, rah, rah, sis, boom, Bob got an eagle. And Trump is upset about 60 Minutes. And he's triggered by Stephen Colbert and he's triggered by Jimmy Kimmel. He's the biggest on the planet. As Terry Moran revealed via the Daily Beast. He's a beta. He's a total beta. And if you follow this beta, that makes you a zeta. I mean, like the bottom of the bottom. Noon has clung on to this. And he absolutely rips taco tits after the face plant of American weakness in Alaska. Put this up. Governor Newsom, press office tweets, Trump just fled the podium with Putin. No questions, nothing. Total low energy. The man looked like he'd eaten just three buckets of KSC with Vlad. Is he afraid the press will ask about me, America's favorite governor, and the fact that I stole the cameras this week with the maps? Many people are saying he begged Putin to hold his hands. Tiny on the way out. Admit it, Donny J. You're terrified because this was the worst week of your life. Because of me. Gavin C. Newsom, the maps will end your presidency, retake Congress for the people, and expose your rigged little game. My perfect maps are more beautiful than any anything in Trump Tower, which many say smells weird. Stephen Chung, explain this disaster. Enjoy your flight home, Donald. You're Putin's problem now. I'm America's solution. Signed, gcn.
E
Love it. He seems to be really getting under Magus skin. I mean, talk about liberal tears. Maga. Tears are flowing like Niagara Falls.
D
Totally. All right, next up, Fox is not. They don't know how to cover this. They don't know how to quite cover Gavin Newsom because for years they have put up Trump's tweets that are completely psychotic and unhinged, as though they're normal. They've beyond sandwashed them. So they're really struggling with what to do now that Gavin Newsom is doing this play. The clip is.
F
That's just the bottom line in all of this. Gavin Newsom, Meantime, posting this on X. Liz. Using all capitals, of course, trying to mock Trump, use Trump style. He's been doing this for a while now. He says, quoting, trump just fled the podium with Putin. No questions, nothing. Total low energy. The man looked like he'd just eaten three buckets of KFC with Vlad. Admit it, Donny J. You're terrified because this was the worst week of your life. Because of me. Gavin C. Newsom. I think he's trying to be funny. I think, I mean, I don't know what he's trying to do, but it comes across as childish. And what are. You're the governor of the biggest state in the union. What are you doing?
B
Honestly, I feel like he's trying so hard to be Trump, but he's coming off like Kanye West. He seems absolutely insane.
D
Okay, this is what you're seeing right now is willful stupidity. They aren't stupid. They're being willfully stupid. They're choosing. Those two dipshits on Fox News right there woke up, looked in the mirror and said, today I choose to be stupid. This is a conscious choice to be willfully stupid. And the people who watch that I think are willfully stupid too. They woke up too, and they thought, today I'm going to be a dipshit and I'm going to go get in the shower, may or may not brush my teeth, and then I'm going to sit down in my lazy boy. And I choose stupidity. Today we're not going to let these dipshits off the hook. That is unbelievable. You're the governor of the country's largest state. Last night, Donald Trump went on a tirade about late night TV show hosts that hurt his feelings. It involved cap locks, it involved quotations. This is exactly the desired result that Gavin Newsom wanted. Some may call it even 40 chess because he's putting it. He's getting this information on Fox News and those every day. Every single day. Those racist, white crusty pieces of wake up and say, today I choose stupidity. Don't let them off the hook. They choose every morning, all day to be stupid, mean, hateful people that traffic and cruelty, that worship a man that has cankles as wide as the Mississippi, can't blend his makeup, can't form complete sentences and gets dog walked by Vladimir Putin. Gavin Newsom, keep going.
E
I love Gavin Newsom. But what's so interesting to me is they say it's beneath Gavin Newsome. He's the governor. Have you just take one more step.
D
You're so, you're so close.
E
One more step that it's beneath the President of the United States to do policy on a failing media corporation. I don't think they're going to get there, but we're close. And I'm hoping some of these views viewers might go, well, if it's beneath.
D
Gavin Newsom, maybe no pumps. They wake up every day and choose stupidity because stupidity helps them with their racism. Okay.
E
I mean, I believe that.
D
I just, I think at this point you. They've seen what Trump has done, and they choose to be stupid about his tweets. This is a choice. MAGA is the party of sexual depravity. Willful stupidity. Let's demean the troops as much as we can. Let's crash Grinder at the Republican National Convention. Let's support a guy who tried to give a blowjob to a microphone on the campaign trail. They've seen it and they choose to be stupid all day and every day. Next up, we have Newsome hitting them where it hurts. Pop this up. Not even J.D. just Dance. Vance can save Trump from the disastrous maps war he has started. Not even his eyeliner lines look as pretty as California map lines. He will fail as he always does. Sad. And I, the peacetime governor, our nation's favorite, will save America once again. Many are now calling me Gavin Christopher Columbus Newsome because of the maps. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I love.
E
These are so good. And I love that he's going after J.D. vance's eyeliner hit Trump's little hands, Mike Johnson's. I mean, he goes after everybody hard.
D
Exactly the way he should, and he needs to keep it up. I mean, do not relent. Keep this going, because that's the thing that this fascist regime has done. They repeat over and over and over until it gets hold. And even if people are like, oh, Gavin Newsom, keep going. Because it is occupying so much real estate in the MAGA bro sphere that they are having to now address this instead of defending Trump or playing offense with Trump, now they're trying to do. All their tension is on Gavin Newsom because they're being willfully stupid, right? They're choosing to wake up and be stupid instead of saying, hey, good point. I get it that Trump does this. All right, you guys, it is so important, so, so important with all of this geopolitical mess with Russia, the stuff that's going on with kinkles, McTaco tits that you get your news every morning and you know that it's factual. And that's why pumps and I go to ground news. I want to read you an example of the way the right and the left cover stuff. All right, Here is on the right, Donald Trump turns up the heat. Quote, zelinsky can end the war if he wants. This is the way the right is covering this. The center covers it as follows. Zelinsky, Russian attack ahead of Trump meeting demonstrative and cynical. So as you can see here, even if you just go to the center, you realize that Zelensky is pointing out, and this is being covered, that on the way to Alaska, Putin is bombing Ukraine. The right wing reports this as Zelensky can end the war if he wants to while Russia is being provocative. So that's why this is so incredibly important. This is why pumps and I encourage each of you to join us by going to groundnews.com ihip to get 40% off ground news vantage plan that we use every day. They're subscriber funded and our favorite part is that they are female. Founded by subscribing, you're not only getting a tool we all need today, you're also supporting our work. That's ground gr u n d news.ship kylie's pinned it right below in the show notes. Pumps moving along. Put this up, Kylie. All right, this is where. This is where Trump this, this will drive him crazy. New we totally humiliated the White House by ratioing them three times yesterday. A great day for America. Thank you, patriots. This is from Gavin Newsom's office. And they're showing how many likes Gavin Newsom posts get where he is pointing the finger at Trump on the tarmac in California. And then he's showing how many the meeting in Alaska got. Spoiler alert. Gavin Newsom gets 66, 000 likes. The rapid response, willfully stupid kinkles McTaco tits. The worst president, the worst leader the world has ever seen. His rapid response team gets 7,000, 7,000 likes. This is little petty victories like this that are important. And this is why I really appreciate the work that Gavin Newsom and his team are doing on the World wide Web.
E
Well, we know this is where Trump hurts. He hurts when people get bigger numbers. What I want is a line of politicians right behind Gavin Newsom just pelting Trump and these stupid people that are in his administration just as hard as Gavin Newsom.
D
And that brings me to my last tweet. And this is something before you put it up, Kylie, this is something that I want everybody to think about. All right? We need to be realistic leftists. We need to be, if you're a liberal, a realistic liberal. If you're a moderate, you need to be a realistic moderate. And you need to realize, what do we all have in common if you end up on that side? We don't like fascism. We oppose authoritarianism. We oppose denying people due process. We oppose alligator Alcatraz. We oppose cankles McTaco tits. And so the politicians and the leaders that we have are not perfect. And we cannot just keep, you know, grinding and grinding at them where we can, where we need to move them. We're going to move them. I'm going to call out Hakeem for not endorsing Zoran Mamdani. I'm going to call him out for that. That's. But Gavin Newsome is proven to be a leader and a fierce fighter and it's finally something that just gives us a respite. Especially if you live in maga Hellscape, Oklahoma, where everybody in this state in the the elected politicians are Christian nationalists that are complete and total hypocrites. Hypocrites. Don't give a about human suffering. Don't give a about people dying without health care. Our governor, Kevin Stitt, doesn't give a about that. But he loves Jesus and he loves Trump. Go figure. So this guy right here, I follow this guy on Twitter. His name is Don Winslow. And I think this is such an important message. Any issues I had with at Gavin Newsome are over. He's actually fighting. He's actually doing what we've asked Senator Schumer and Representative Jeffries and others to do from today forward. I fully support Gavin Newsom and the AT Governor Press office and I hope he continues to fight like this and does not stop. This is really important right now that we're when, when we have a fighter, somebody who's taking maggot and just the complete, complete fascist insanity to task. Let's jump on board. Let's fight. It's realistic leftism. It's not perfect. The perfect candidate does not exist where people are going to fight. Let's support them. Let's lock in. Let's keep bullying these MAGA morons online relentlessly, relentlessly expose that. These men think they're so masculine when in fact they're not. They support a man who is scared of Stephen Colbert. He's scared of Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel. That's how big of a their leader is. All right, stick with us. We'll have one more drop later today. We'll see you all then.

Hosts: Jennifer Welch & Angie “Pumps” Sullivan
Date: August 18, 2025
In this fiery episode, Jennifer Welch and Angie “Pumps” Sullivan deliver their signature comedic, progressive spin on the latest political news. Set deep in “MAGA Hellscape, Oklahoma,” the duo revel in California Governor Gavin Newsom’s aggressive, trollish social media campaign against Donald Trump and the Republican establishment. The pair also gleefully dissect Fox News’s awkward attempt to grapple with a progressive governor using Trump-style media tactics and discuss the importance of supporting bold leaders in turbulent times.

This episode is a raucous, cathartic rally for frustrated progressives, celebrating Gavin Newsom’s trollish, relentless attacks on Trump and the broader MAGA movement. Jennifer and Angie delight in calling out the hypocrisy and “willful stupidity” of the right, mercilessly roast Fox News, and encourage listeners to set aside ideological purity in favor of solidarity against rising authoritarianism. With biting humor, memorable quotes, and a palpable sense of urgency, the hosts provide equal parts comic relief and political motivation for the 2024–25 news cycle.
