Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Trump’s Confused Response on Ghislaine Maxwell (00:37–02:15)

• The episode opens with Trump’s rambling Oval Office exchange regarding Ghislaine Maxwell’s denied Supreme Court appeal and the idea of a pardon.
  • Trump appears lost, repeatedly asking for clarification and shifting responsibility (“I would have to take a look at it. I will speak to the DOJ… I don’t know. I may not have to speak to the DOJ. I’ll look at it.” – Trump, 00:55–01:19).
• Hosts and guests immediately pounce on his cognitive fog and the alarming suggestion that the president would call the DOJ about an individual criminal case.
  • “The reason he hasn’t heard about this, Pump, is they don’t talk about it on Fox… Jesse Waters and all of the other pedophile protectors at Fox News don’t talk about this.” (Bari Weiss, 01:22)
  • “For him to say he’s going to speak to the DOJ—there’s a world where Republicans freaked out because Bill Clinton spoke to an attorney general on a tarmac…” (Bari Weiss, 01:22)
• Kyle Kulinski highlights the bizarre nature of Trump’s crackdown fatigue and self-imposed ignorance:
  • “He keeps saying, ‘I don’t know.’ So that leads me to believe either he’s lying… or that they’re not telling him certain things.” (Kyle Kulinski, 02:15)
  • “And the answer to ‘Are you going to pardon a convicted sex trafficker?’ is ALWAYS no… It’s a clown car of stupid.” (Kyle Kulinski, 02:15–03:05)

2. MAGA Culture Wars & Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Bad Bunny Tweet (03:11–05:54)

• The show lampoons the right’s perpetual outrage machine. Bari Weiss reads and skewers a Marjorie Taylor Greene tweet about Bad Bunny performing at the Super Bowl and the need to make English the official language.
  • “Can you imagine living in a world, in a free country, where you are triggered by a world renowned superstar named Bad Bunny and you’re triggered by the Spanish language? It’s so asinine.” (Bari Weiss, 03:33)
  • “We live in a multicultural country… If these MAGA politicians continue to oppress large portions of the population and demean them, this will all backfire eventually.” (Bari Weiss, 04:10)
• The hosts riff on the cyclical nature of culture war grievances—Cracker Barrel, the Little Mermaid, the so-called war on Christmas—calling it “very unserious people” behavior.

3. Stephen Miller’s "Antifa Terror" Propaganda (05:54–08:23)

• The hosts play and debunk a breathless Stephen Miller clip about ICE agents battling Antifa in “hand to hand combat” nightly.
  • “Antifa is not a real thing. Like, we are Antifa. We are anti-fascist. The majority of Americans are Antifa.” (Bari Weiss, 06:19)
  • “There’s no hand to hand combat happening in Portland… This is lies. This is total propaganda.” (Bari Weiss, 06:54)
  • “Stephen Miller is a Jewish Nazi psychopath, full stop. And Trump has him running the DOJ, ICE, and any other thing that he can run because all Kanks cares about is his ballroom, getting his face on buildings, getting his face on money, and watching Fox News.” (Bari Weiss, 07:22)
• The absurdity of designating “Antifa” a terrorist organization is highlighted:
  • “Imagine being the Attorney General… and you’ve designated a terrorist organization that does not exist.” (Kyle Kulinski, 07:58)

4. Trump’s Fantasy About Black Women in MAGA Hats (08:23–11:03)

• The hosts address Trump’s claim (during his “sundowner hour”) that black women in Chicago are begging for the National Guard and wearing MAGA hats.
  • “This is like the third time he’s brought it up… I want to go on the permanent record and tell you: MAGA black women cannot stand your racist ass.” (Bari Weiss, 09:19)
  • “For him to say that black women in MAGA hats are begging for him to send the Gestapo in to Chicago is really rich, divorced from reality. And another example of this Sundowner Dement series that I guess we’re going to have every evening from the Oval Office.” (Bari Weiss, 10:17)
• Kyle flags Trump’s delusions as grounds for constitutional crisis:
  • “He believes it. He believes that people in Chicago that are black women are wearing MAGA hats saying, please send the guard. It’s fucking crazy. That right there is 25th amendment worry.” (Kyle Kulinski, 10:40)

5. Trump’s Grandiose Falsehoods on Ending Wars with Tariffs (11:03–13:16)

• Trump claims credit for “ending seven wars” thanks to his “ability at trade and because of tariffs.”
  • “If I didn’t have tariffs to throw around a little bit, you would have at least four wars raging right now…” (Trump, 11:22)
• Bari Weiss and Kyle Kulinski mock these assertions as delusional and factually absurd:
  • “This is a jet stream of bullshit. This is utter insanity… Putin and Netanyahu have put a shock collar on that fat ass and they have walked him all over the international stage.” (Bari Weiss, 11:48)
  • “We used to be a serious country and now we have this racist, demented dipshit hosting dementia hour every evening in the Oval Office… The secondhand embarrassment that I feel overwhelms me.” (Bari Weiss, 12:34)
• No one in Trump’s inner circle is willing or able to confront his delusions.
  • “Nobody can tell him what he wants to hear. When we spoke to Ruth Ben Ghiat, the expert on authoritarians, nobody is allowed to rise up and look like they know more than the toxic masculine person at the top.” (Bari Weiss, 13:16)
  • “This right here is a giant titty baby. Whining, complaining, lying, compulsively lying and propagandizing the public.” (Bari Weiss, 14:12)

Transcript

[Bari Weiss]

Donald Trump, pipsqueak Mike Johnson. None of them give a shit about the victims in the Epstein case. And Kank sitting in the Oval Office because of course he likes to grandstand in there every evening. And they say that people that have dementia have what's called sundowners. So now we have sundowner hour in the Oval every night with this nut. And here he is answering a question about Ghislaine Mexican Maxwell who is a convicted sex trafficker. Play the clip.

[Michael Brooks]

Yeah, please.

[Interviewer]

The Supreme Court is back and they rejected today an appeal by Ghislaine Maxwell to overturn her conviction. That means her only chance of getting out of prison is a pardon from you. Is that something you're.

[Michael Brooks]

Who are we talking about?

[Interviewer]

Ghislaine Maxwell.

[Michael Brooks]

You know, I haven't heard the name in so long I can say this that I'd have to take a look at it. I would have to take a look. Did they reject that she wanted to.

[Interviewer]

Revealed her conviction and what happened? They were not going to hear her.

[Michael Brooks]

I see. Well, I'll take a look at it. I'll speak to. I will speak to the doj. I wouldn't consider it or not consider. I don't know anything about it, so. But I'll speak. I will speak to the doj. I don't know. I may not have to speak to the doj. I'll look at it. I'll.

[Bari Weiss]

All right, I've heard a lot of people. Here's the thing. First and foremost, the reason he hasn't heard about this punt is they don't talk about it on Fox. That's why he hasn't heard her name in a long time. Because Jesse Waters and all of the other other pedophile protectors at Fox News don't talk about this. That's why he hasn't heard about it. And secondly, for him to say he's going to speak to the doj. There's a world where Republicans freaked out because Bill Clinton spoke to attorney general on a tarmac. I mean, if you bring it up now, they'll still freak out about it. They still think there's some conspiracy theory. So enmeshing of all of these government agencies that are supposed to be independent is just brazen. Nobody even checked him there in the conference. Nobody said, why would you talk to the DOJ about that? Aren't they supposed to be independent?

[Kyle Kulinski]

Well, he is the doj. Or he could just post on Live Social what he wants to do and they'll do it. A couple things here. Number one, I Think he's going like he can't hear. He's like, who are you talking about? He keeps saying, I don't know how many times during this Trump 2.0, he says, I don't know. So that leads me to believe either he's lying, which is easy for me to believe, but that they're not telling him certain things. And then I just want to add to this the answer to are you going to pardon a convicted sex trafficker? It's always no. That answer is always no when you're President of the United States. And then later in that clip, he throws in Puff Daddy just grazzy. I mean, I'm just like, this is a clown car of stupid, but I'm with you. Why would you consider pardoning Glenn Maxwell? She is a convicted sex trafficker, but.

[Bari Weiss]

Because he wants her to keep her mouth shut. That's why.

[Kyle Kulinski]

Absolutely.

[Bari Weiss]

He will pardon her because he, he wants to show in his authoritarian flex, I get to do what I want, and all of the people surrounding me get to do what they want. And then I just wanted to read to you all what's going on with the MAGA politicians right now. This came across my Twitter feed and she's dead serious about this. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene tweets the following. Bad Bunny says America has four months to learn Spanish before his perverse, unwanted performance at the super bowl halftime. It would be a good time to pass my bill to make English the official language of America. And the NFL needs to stop having demonic sexual performances during its halftime shows. Can you imagine living in a world, in a free country where you are triggered by a world renowned superstar named Bad Bunny and you're triggered by the Spanish language. It's so asinine, the culture wars that MAGA just clings onto. Nothing about this is important. Nothing about this is tweetable. We live in a multicultural country. It's always going to be a multicultural country. And if these MAGA politicians continue to oppress large portions of the population and demean them, it's go it. This will all backfire eventually because you have people that live out in suburbia or they live out in rural America that are all about all this, all white. But you get into a city and you see multiculturalism, you embrace multiculturalism. It actually makes your life have more flavor. So to all of the MAGA meltdown, snowflake abject pussies that are upset about Bad Bunny, I guess you just go from, I was pissed about Cracker Barrel and now we're going to move the goalposts and now I'm mad about Bad Bunny. But these are the same people that were upset about the Little Mermaid. These are the same people that think there's a war on Christmas. These are titty babies. These are very unserious people.

[Kyle Kulinski]

I forgot about the War on Christmas. I mean, we're getting ready to come back to it. But here's the thing. These people in MAGA are so racist and they're not even even hiding it.

[Bari Weiss]

It.

[Kyle Kulinski]

It's so offensive and appalling that in 2025, this is what's considered political fodder. It's disgusting.

[Bari Weiss]

All right, next up we have Stephen Miller. You guys. And the propaganda and the lies coming out of this guy could only be rivaled by Joseph Goebbels of Nazi Germany. Germany. And it is utterly insane. Just play the clip.

[Kyle Kulinski]

ICE officers have to street battle against Antifa. Hand to hand combat every night to come and go from their building.

[Bari Weiss]

Okay, that is a complete lie. First of all, Antifa is not a real thing. Like we are in Antifa. We are anti fascist. All of the people that fought in World War II, all of those military people in the Allied Forces, they were antifa. The majority of Americans are antifa. They have to create an enemy. And they tried with drag queens. They moved the goalpost to trans kids. They've always had black and brown people and now they're going after Antifa, which is a made up, bullshit thing. Because every American that likes freedom and believes in the Constitution is antifa. We are all antifa. Antifa is shortened for anti fascist, you dipshits. There's no hand to hand combat happening in Portland, Oregon. 12,000 people just showed up there for a marathon in the city streets. This is lies. This is total propaganda. Stephen Miller is a Jewish Nazi psychopath, full stop. And Trump has him running the doj, ICE and any other thing that he can run because all Kanks cares about is his ballroom, getting his face on buildings, getting his face on money, and watching Fox News. Those. That's the list. That's how intellectually lazy and breathtakingly incompetent this 95 year old, dementia ridden man is with cankles, swollen bruises on his hands. Utter idiot.

[Kyle Kulinski]

He's a complete idiot. And they've designated Antifa a terrorist organization. And they're saying, we're investigating all the people behind it and all the money. And I'm like, it's not real. Imagine being the Attorney General or in charge of the doj and you've designated a terrorist organization that does not Exist. It blows my mind.

[Bari Weiss]

Okay? And then everybody knows that among all of the groups, which Kanks is the least popular would be black women. I mean, over 90% showed up to vote, voted for Kamala Harris. This is the backbone of the Democratic Party. And he. Somebody told him at some point that black women are wearing MAGA hats or showed him a picture, and he can't shut the up about it. Here he is in his sundowner with grandma Oval Office hour last night, talking about black women in Chicago, lying through.

[Michael Brooks]

His teeth and the people of Chicago. So you have black women with MAGA hats on in Chicago? All over the place. They want the guard to come in or. They don't care who comes in. They just want to be safe.

[Bari Weiss]

Okay, that is a complete lie. We've been to Chicago Pumps and I spent a week there last summer. I didn't see one MAGA hat. Black women don't wear MAGA hats because his staff has to deal with his fragile ego. They probably found an image somewhere because of course, there's always one skunk at the garden party. I'm sure there's some rogue black woman that, you know, is shilling for Trump. And his staff has to make him feel good about what a piece of he is. So they showed him a picture of a black woman in a hat. And this is like the third time he's brought it up. And I just want to go on the permanent record and tell you MAGA black women cannot stand your racist ass. They cannot stand you guys. And the people who are suffering the most under this administration where the highest job loss numbers are, are black women. Black women get dicked over nonstop by politicians. And for him to say that black women in MAGA hats are begging for him to send the Gestapo in to Chicago is really rich divorced from reality. And another example of this Sundowner Dement series that I guess we're going to have every evening from the Oval Office.

[Kyle Kulinski]

When I heard him say that, I thought, did he believe that? Has somebody told him that isn't a. Is it an AI image? The fact that he keeps saying it. He believes it. He believes that people in Chicago that are black women are wearing MAGA hat saying, please send the guard. It's fucking crazy. That right there is 25th amendment worry.

[Bari Weiss]

Well, speaking of 25th amendment, here we go right here. Here is a. That shows the following. He either has full blown dementia, he doesn't understand economic policy, and he doesn't understand foreign policy, or obviously, all of the above. Play the clip.

[Michael Brooks]

Because, you know I've ended seven wars. At least half of them was because of my ability at trade and because of tariffs. If I didn't have tariffs to throw around a little bit, you would have at least four wars raging right now with thousands of people a day being killed that aren't happening. We've settled, you know, we settled 7. We're getting close to settling 8. That would be a big one.

[Bari Weiss]

Okay, this is all lies. This is a jet stream of bullshit. This is utter insanity. This man campaigned day one. I'm going to call Putin. That's going to be over with. Day one. I'm going to call Benjamin Netanyahu. That's going to be over with. Guess what has happened since then? Putin and Netanyahu have put a shock collar on that fat ass and they have walked him all over the international stage. And when he acts out, they just shock him a little bit. And he acts out again and they just shock him a little bit. This guy doesn't know come here from Sikkim. He is sitting here talking about tariffs that he's throwing around that are preventing four major wars. He is an international laughingstock. He is a complete embarrassment. We used to be a serious country and now we have this racist, demented dipshit hosting dementia hour every evening in the Oval Office on the global stage. And I just. The secondhand embarrassment that I feel overwhelms me.

[Kyle Kulinski]

Well, you can't shame the shameless. I don't know if he's capable of being embarrassed, but we saw clips of world leaders laughing at him specifically about saying, these wars. If I were his aide, I would say, stop talking about the wars. It is not a good look for you. But either they believe it or nobody can tell him.

[Bari Weiss]

Anything you don't want to hear is nobody can tell him what he wants to hear. When we spoke to Ruth Ben Ghiat, the professor, the expert on authoritarians, nobody is allowed to rise up and look like they know more than the toxic masculine person at the top of the hierarchy. So if somebody were to say, hey, I think you need to shift gears here, they're going to get punished noticeably in front of all of the others. That's why you have the three hour circle jerks where everybody is out jockeying each other to see who can keep the most praise on him. Nobody's advising him. Nobody is telling him anything other than statements that will feed his broken, frail, fragile, titty, baby ego. And then they try to project. Look at how masculine we are. Look at what tough guys we are. When all I see all of this right here is a giant titty baby. Whining, complaining, lying, compulsively lying and propagandizing the public. Okay, Pumps, tell them about our book.

[Kyle Kulinski]

Okay, so we have our book. It is the it book of the fall. Please pick it up. It's a great way to support us, and it's a really fun read.

[Bari Weiss]

All right. Like and subscribe. We'll see. We'll be back later with more news because there's lot going on with Kanks.
