  • Joe Bob opens the episode mocking the outcry from liberal commentators on X (Twitter), Threads, and Bluesky over an on-air statement by White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt.
  • He reads and riffs on several angry social media posts from politicians and influencers (e.g., Congressman Greg Caster, Senator Chris Murphy, Governor Gavin Newsom, Jemele Hill).

• The “Outrageous” Clip:

  • Plays the much-maligned clip, which accuses the Democratic Party of “catering to Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens, and violent criminals” ([08:17]):

    “The Democrat Party’s main constituency are made up of Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens and violent criminals...” — Pentagon Official ([08:17])

  • Joe Bob feigns disbelief that this is the actual, supposedly “horrible and disgusting” statement causing the uproar.
