Presidential power has expanded far beyond what the framers of the Constitution envisioned. From Lincoln and Roosevelt to Nixon and Trump, presidents have pushed the limits of executive authority — often during moments of crisis. Understanding this history is key to understanding what comes next for American democracyIn this episode, host Simone Leeper speaks with American historians Douglas Brinkley and Rick Perlstein, CLC Executive Director Adav Noti and Juan Proaño, CEO of LULAC. In conversation, they trace how the presidency has gathered sweeping power over time; what happens when oversight of this executive power breaks down; and what legal, legislative and civic reforms could restore accountability, prevent presidential overreach and safeguard the constitutional separation of powers that defines the United States.Timestamps:(00:05) — Why were federal troops deployed in Los Angeles?(05:11) — Can the president legally invoke emergency powers?(07:31) — How did the Founders limit presidential authority?(09:14) — When did executive orders begin to expand presidential power?(10:25) — How did FDR and later presidents redefine the presidency?(13:04) — What did Nixon's “If the president does it, it's not illegal” comment really mean?(15:22) — What are the origins of the so-called unitary executive theory?(18:21) — How are checks and balances failing?(19:42) — Is America sliding toward authoritarianism?(27:57) — How is Campaign Legal Center fighting unlawful presidential overreach through litigation?(30:00) — Why does birthright citizenship matter for American democracy?(33:13) — What can be done to stop abuses of presidential authority?Host and Guests:Simone Leeper litigates a wide range of redistricting-related cases at Campaign Legal Center, challenging gerrymanders and advocating for election systems that guarantee all voters an equal opportunity to influence our democracy.

For many decades, practitioners and scholars of foreign policy used to refer to “the West,” but today, for the most part, they don't. What happened to the idea of “the West”? Michael Kimmage, a professor of history at Catholic University, wrote The Abandonment of the West: The History of an Idea in American Foreign Policy to trace the rise and decline of this concept from the late nineteenth century through the present day. In this podcast discussion, Kimmage discusses the idea of the West — as a geopolitical and cultural concept rather than a geographic place. He analyzes how it developed intellectually, with the widespread adoption of neoclassical architecture and Western Civilization curricula in American universities, and geopolitically as the U.S. rose to global leadership after World War II and during the Cold War. Kimmage also addresses critiques of the West (and its legacy of racism and imperialism) as advanced by critics like W. E. B. Du Bois and Edward Said. He argues that concept of “the West,” despite its flaws, still matters, and explains why he's concerned about the tendency to erase or discard the Western tradition entirely rather than engaging with it critically.   Michael Kimmage further relates his experience of serving as director of the Kennan Institute, a program at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, which was liquidated in January 2025 by Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (or DOGE), and the consequences of the government cutting itself off from international exchange and expertise in the development of U.S. foreign policy. He also expresses his belief that institutionalists — the people who believe in the value of institutions and operate in them — have to do a better job of explaining and justifying what they do: “If the population feels that these institutions are elitist and out of touch and misguided and unnecessary, then it doesn't matter how much somebody like me values them, it's not going to work.”

It has been delayed by one year due to strong opposition from the U.S., Singapore, and other nations, pushing the adoption vote from October 2025 to October 2026. This postponement could further delay implementation until 2030 if additional hurdles arise.The levy aims to fund low- and zero-emission fuels by imposing fees on high-emission shipping (potentially raising $10 billion annually), but critics argued it would disproportionately burden exporters like the U.S., adding up to $150 billion in costs over a decade.   (function(w,d,s,i){w.ldAdInit=w.ldAdInit||[];w.ldAdInit.push({slot:18510697282300316,size:[0, 0],id:"ld-8599-9832"});if(!d.getElementById(i)){var j=d.createElement(s),p=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];j.async=true;j.src="https://cdn2.decide.dev/_js/ajs.js";j.id=i;p.parentNode.insertBefore(j,p);}})(window,document,"script","ld-ajs"); https://twitter.com/ProfMJCleveland/status/1980324660366741740   A key example given is Jennifer Alba, who in 2021 bought a used 2018 Subaru Outback with a six-year loan totaling about $565 per month (after a $1,500 down payment).

According to the police report, there were 10 attackers. Photos taken in the aftermath showed Coristine, who is also known by the nickname "Big Balls," looking bloody and battered from an apparent assault.  the alleged attackers weren't "preteens." The first two who were arrested were both 15 years old. Unfortunately, those two got away with a slap on the wrist thanks in part to their age. The interim U.S. Attorney for D.C., Jeanine Pirro,

The Palazzo Ducale dominates the view as your vaporetto approaches the San Marco stop. The huge building is an example of Venetian Gothic architecture, all pointed arches and quatrefoils. It's hard to believe that two prisons lie within its bulk, with a third inside the pristine white building alongside it. Tourists might be the only people who visit these prisons now, trotting along the corridors as part of organised tours. Yet in bygone centuries, notorious reputations clung to the cells, and people feared being slung into them. The fearsome reputation of this prison may not have outlived the building, but they certainly outlived the Venetian Republic. Let's explore this reputation, some legends associated with the Palace and its prisons, and even learn of a daring escape from one of them - by none other than Casanova - in this week's episode!

Politico releases an article exposing leaked out-of-context messages between members of the Young Republican National Federation. Cheryl Hines, the wife of HHS Secretary Robert F.

//The Wire//2300Z October 15, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: CARIBBEAN WAR CONTINUES AS PENTAGON SINKS FASTBOAT AND STRATEGIC AVIATION CONDUCTS SHOW OF FORCE OPERATIONS. CONFLICT BETWEEN PAKISTAN AND AFGHANISTAN CONTINUES. SECWAR'S PLANE SUFFERS EMERGENCY WHILE RETURNING TO USA.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Afghanistan: The conflict between the Taliban and Pakistan flared up again overnight, before both sides agreed to another ceasefire. Despite the various statements of ceasefire by both sides, random skirmishes continue. Pakistan conducted airstrikes in Kabul once again, and Afghan forces conducted random skirmishes at a few border checkpoints along the Durand Line that designates the border between the two nations.Ireland: A mass stabbing was reported in the vicinity of Grattan Wood in Dublin. One individual was killed, and two others wounded during the attack. No further details have been provided at this time.Analyst Comment: Local media has reported that this attack took place at a "residence", which is misleading. The location of the attack was inside a care home that houses underage migrants.Caribbean: Yesterday the War Department announced the kinetic targeting of another fastboat off the coast of Venezuela, bringing the total to 5x vessels sunk so far during this campaign.United Kingdom: This afternoon, American Secretary of War Pete Hegseth made an unplanned emergency landing due to an incident involving his aircraft. The SECWAR was returning to the US from Belgium when a crack appeared in the windscreen of the aircraft, which possibly caused a depressurization incident. The pilots made an emergency descent to roughly 6,000 ft AGL, and proceeded to land safely without further incident.-HomeFront-Washington D.C. - DC Judge Kendra Briggs authorized the release of the two individuals who assaulted Edward Coristine, after sentencing them to probation. Both individuals (who have not been identified as they are allegedly juveniles) will face zero jail or juvenile detention time for their violent attack on Coristine, who was a high-ranking member of the DOGE team investigating government fraud during the initial months of President Trump's term. Coristine had intervened to stop a carjacking at a parking garage in DC, which resulted in a gang of roughly a dozen "juveniles" beating him, breaking his nose during the assault. The two individuals prosecuted in this case were the only two in the group that were caught.North Carolina: Following a series of attempted murders in Charlotte on Sunday, the individual who conducted the stabbing of two people has been released from jail. Paulette Gibson (who has an extensive criminal history) was released from jail on $20,000 bail, roughly 48 hours after nearly stabbing two people to death during a street fight.Analyst Comment: In the wake of the exceptionally brutal murder of Iryna Zarutska, North Carolina has passed legislation to stop the practice of cashless bail and overhaul the bail system so as to reduce the likelihood that violent offenders would be released. This was a hotly contested bill that required a veto-proof majority to pass (as the Governor threatened repeatedly to veto it). Eventually the bill was passed and became law on October 1st, but nevertheless, Gibson was released on bail anyway.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: This morning plane watchers noted the presence of several B-52 Stratofortress bombers conducting operations just north of Venezuela. So far the War Department has not commented on this development, and it's not clear as to if these transponder pings are genuine or the result of other platforms spoofing the identities of these aircraft. If genuine, this is undoubtedly a show of force. No operational deployment of B-52's would involve the pilots leaving their transponders turned on, so this was

Elon Musk publicly calls Judge Kendra Briggs a “RACIST JUDGE” following her controversial verdict in the assault case of DOGE's Edward “Big Balls” Coristine. In the aftermath of the case, numerous critics are blasting the judge's decision to release the juveniles involved. Musk didn't hold back.

Corruption defines both the perception and reality of government, eroding trust and even threatening national security. Today, the safeguards meant to keep our government accountable are failing. From the mass firing of inspectors general to congressional stock trading and Supreme Court ethics scandals, abuses of power are weakening public trust and raising fears that the U.S. could slide toward kleptocracy.In this episode, host Simone Leeper speaks with Mark Lee Greenblatt, former Inspector General of the U.S. Department of the Interior; Jodi Vittori, Georgetown University professor and expert on corruption and national security; and Kedric Payne, Vice President and General Counsel at Campaign Legal Center. Together, they trace America's long fight against corruption — from the founders' earliest fears to Watergate reforms — and examine how today's failures of accountability threaten American democracy. The episode closes with solutions for restoring integrity, eliminating conflicts of interest and rebuilding trust in American government. Timestamps:(00:05) — Why did Trump fire 17 inspectors general?(07:36) — How has corruption shaped U.S. history?(11:14) — What reforms followed Watergate?(18:22) — Why does corruption feel worse in daily life now?(23:01) — How did Trump weaken watchdog offices and ethics enforcement?(28:47) — Why does congressional stock trading undermine trust?(33:58) — What do Supreme Court ethics scandals reveal?(39:59) — Could the U.S. slide toward kleptocracy?(46:04) — How does corruption threaten national security?(56:57) — What reforms could restore accountability and integrity? Host and Guests:Simone Leeper litigates a wide range of redistricting-related cases at Campaign Legal Center, challenging gerrymanders and advocating for election systems that guarantee all voters an equal opportunity to influence our democracy.

Jon Herold returns with another sharp and entertaining episode of The Daily Herold, tackling everything from government shutdowns to global economic warfare. He dives into Trump's new trade strategy with China, the ongoing rare-earth conflict, and how “de-risking” might be the quiet move reshaping world power. Between math lessons on government spending, reflections on the Doge program, and debates about Charlie Kirk's legacy, Jon balances hard news with humor and humanity. From Supreme Court arguments on voting rights to Pentagon press restrictions and China's economic provocations, this episode proves there's no such thing as a slow news day in 2025.

Enjoy this special feed drop of The Making of Musk: Understood, from our friends at CBC Podcasts. Where did Elon Musk's epic ambitions begin? In search of clues we return to his sheltered youth in apartheid South Africa, a world engineered for white supremacy. Along the way, we connect the dots between a bizarre White House ambush of South African president Cyril Ramaphosa to teenage Elon's ego-powered quests in video games. Finally, was his “draft dodge” from military service a moral act or an opportunist's exit?Learn more about The Making of Musk: Understood here: https://link.mgln.ai/TBSxMoMWhat explains Elon Musk? Could his most outlandish ambitions and most toxic qualities trace back to his youth in Apartheid South Africa?The Making of Musk: Understood explores his seemingly insatiable drive for dominance, which connects everything from his birthrate obsession (and fourteen children) to his fixation with colonizing Mars. This four-part series, hosted by Jacob Silverman, reveals a little known side of the polarizing billionaire. Silverman tells the vital beginnings of this story — because the Elon era is far from over. We love feedback at The Big Story, as well as suggestions for future episodes.

The end of USAID was among the biggest early controversies of President Donald Trump's second term. The world watched in horror as Elon Musk's DOGE took a chainsaw to U.S. foreign assistance, placing millions of lives at risk with brutal across-the-board cuts.But few people realize how much has changed since then. Behind the scenes, aid money was largely restored—for now. And instead of making grandiose fraud accusations, Secretary of State Marco Rubio has begun embracing aid in public, laying out promising plans to address problems long recognized by technocrats.Rachel Bonnifield is a leading global health expert and proud member of the NGO ecosystem denounced by Trump officials—yet she admires much of their new strategy. She joins The World Unpacked to make a surprising case for many Trump reforms, while also warning of risks, including the potential for more disruptions in the coming months.

Kicking off with lighthearted chats on stand-up comedy—praising Austin's scene, Joe Rogan, and Jim Gaffigan's "steakhouse laugh"—the trio dives into the bombshell Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal brokered by President Trump. They break down key components like the release of all hostages within 72 hours, Israel's swap of 250 life-sentence prisoners and 1,700 detainees for around 40 captives (half presumed dead), Hamas's arms laydown, IDF withdrawal, humanitarian aid resumption, and a new civilian Palestinian authority. Horn highlights Arab nations turning against Hamas, while Torres notes the deal's timing amid ongoing Gaza bombings and media skepticism from outlets like NBC. They react to rare bipartisan praise from Sen. Tim Kaine and tie it to Trump's Nobel buzz, contrasting it with ABC's Obama Nobel throwback shade. The conversation shifts to the unnoticed government shutdown (now week two), with furloughed feds getting paid vacations and essential workers grinding unpaid. Touching on economic wins like reversing the deficit for the first time in 15 years under Treasury guidance, they speculate on midterm impacts amid tariff battles and immigration focus. A quick pivot to the U.S.-Venezuela tensions sees Qatar mediating as Trump deploys 10,000 troops to Caribbean bases like Puerto Rico, striking "civilian boats" (read: cartel speedboats with khaki packages) while Rubio pushes Maduro's ouster. Banter ensues on Puerto Rico tales, La Perla neighborhoods, and corporate getaways. Fast-forward to DOGE Florida under new CFO Blayson Goglia (ex-Government Gone Wild YouTuber), who blasts Hillsborough County's wastes: $750K for a St. Pete mayor statue, $500K "leadership portal" (basically a YouTube course), and auto allowances amid ballooning budgets despite modest population growth. The group laments local GOP infrastructure failures, like unorganized District 5 races, and predicts Josh Wostel's principled reelection fight in blue-leaning Tampa. Wrapping with a Danish study on 321 Palestinian refugees (63% convicted, 55% on welfare; second-gen at 34% convicted, 37% welfare), they decry Europe's immigration woes paralleling U.S. debates. The episode closes on a humorous note with a skit on dodging NYC tickets by sympathizing with "Donnie" (cops), plus plugs for VFW 4321 karaoke and pop-up chef events.   Topic Chapters: 00:00 - Intro & Comedy Banter 05:09 - Israel-Hamas Ceasefire Breakdown 14:13 - Tim Kaine's Praise & Midterm Speculation 17:19 - U.S.-Venezuela Conflict & Qatar Mediation 21:05 - Truth Social Scoop & Puerto Rico Tales 50:04 - DOGE Florida with Blayson Goglia 55:13 - Hillsborough County Politics & Josh Wostel 59:05 - Turning Point USA & Latino Vote 01:03:51 - Danish Immigration Study 01:05:43 - Funny Cop Pull-Over Skit & Outro

At time of record, the world is waiting to see if a peace deal in the Middle East has been achieved. Jemma and Marina hope with every bit of them it happens but also discuss what it might, or might not mean, in reality. Then they pay tribute to some remarkable women - Jilly Cooper, and Dr. Jane Goodall - trailblazers in their own right who entertained, inspired, and made the world better. They also touch on a very Trawly online spat featuring none other than Livia Firth, serving up some chef's kiss sass to Esther McVey.Then they wade into the Tory conference because..... someone has to. Kemi Badenoch is channelling Doge and Musk and wants to emulate ICE, Chris Philp delivers a speech that could double as a David Brent sketch, and they can't spell.Across the pond, Trump's mask slips even further as Project 25 edges closer to reality. Fascism's no longer hiding and America's veterans and voters are reacting. But with key right-wing voices starting to break ranks and Democrats finally showing some teeth, is a turning point coming?Finally, this week's pudding is a moving final message from the incomparable Jane Goodall. A quiet reminder of grace, courage and hope and a stark contrast to the political nonsense the Trawl ladies have trawled through on your behalf.Thank you for sharing and do tweet us @MarinaPurkiss @jemmaforte @TheTrawlPodcast Patreonhttps://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcast Youtubehttps://www.youtube.com/@TheTrawl Twitterhttps://twitter.com/TheTrawlPodcastIf you've even mildly enjoyed The Trawl, you'll love the unfiltered, no-holds-barred extras from Jemma & Marina over on Patreon, including:• Exclusive episodes of The Trawl Goss – where Jemma and Marina spill backstage gossip, dive into their personal lives, and often forget the mic is on• Early access to The Trawl Meets…• Glorious ad-free episodesPlus, there's a bell-free community of over 3,300 legends sparking brilliant chat.And it's your way to support the pod which the ladies pour their hearts, souls (and occasional anxiety) into.

It's been more than four months since Elon Musk stepped back from the Trump White House and his duties helming the Department of Government Efficiency.But Musk's chainsaw to federal spending is being acutely felt, amid a U.S. government shutdown that's giving the Trump administration sway to once again slash critical jobs.Host Caryn Ceolin speaks to Jacob Silverman, author and host of the CBC podcast ‘The Making of Musk: Understood' about Musk's lasting influence post-DOGE, and his greater impact on not just the halls of power in Washington, but around the world.Learn more about Jacob's new podcast below:What explains Elon Musk? Could his most outlandish ambitions and most toxic qualities trace back to his youth in Apartheid South Africa The Making of Musk: Understood explores his seemingly insatiable drive for dominance, which connects everything from his birthrate obsession (and fourteen children) to his fixation with colonizing Mars.This four-part series, hosted by Jacob Silverman, reveals a little known side of the polarizing billionaire. Silverman tells the vital beginnings of this story — because the Elon era is far from over.Listen now here: https://link.mgln.ai/TBSxMoM We love feedback at The Big Story, as well as suggestions for future episodes.

It's the question everyone's been asking since DOGE first showed up: How screwed is DC? A new program at the Brookings Institution called DMV Monitor pulls together a ton of data to help answer the question. And their most recent report is kind of a jaw-dropper. The region's unemployment has shot up nine times faster than the rest of the country, with more to come. Brookings Fellow Tracy Hadden Loh is here to break it all down. Want some more DC news?

Or would a DOGE payout be more effective? Let's keep in mind, our government is already in TREMENDOUS debt. What's the solution?

Im back to share my thoughts on all things cultural.  In this episode, I break down a series of stories that highlight entitlement, power, and injustice. I discuss the unnecessary killing of Charlie Kirk and the outrage over Diddy's sentencing, i share my thoughts on how the judge used acquitted conduct to justify an upward departure from the sentencing guidelines, which I see as an abuse of power and a miscarriage of justice.I also dive into a CNN report about Black women being laid off by DOGE. Over 300k black women were pushed aside. While I understand the government needs to improve, I feel these actions represent a direct attack on the Black community.Plus, I explain why I started Season 6 for just five episodes instead of extending Season 5... the break was too long, but hey, you guys are entitled! This episode is all about entitlement, justice, and the imbalance of power in society.RIP Bettye McElrath, Woe to them that call evil good and good evil.

You've heard of the "Freshman 15"... how about the "DOGE 15"? This is how some federal employees have referred to the stress associated with the establishment of the Department of Government Efficiency back in January and the "restructurings, realignments, and reductions in force" that came with it, as announced in an email sent to nearly all federal employees with the subject line, "Fork in the Road." Federal workers have found community in the FedNews subreddit: "A vital, independent hub for U.S. federal employees to navigate the bureaucracy, protect our careers, and support one another." r/FedNews is our hub for this episode. Back in April, Amory and Ben spoke with three of its members: one of whom is still a federal employee, another who participated in the Deferred Resignation Program, and another who was laid off along with thousands of other probationary employees, only to be offered his job back. We hear their stories as the country faces another fork in the road: a government shutdown that the White House has said could result in further reductions in force — specifically of federal jobs that are "not consistent with the president's priorities."

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism 10/02/25. 2025 will end the way it began. We kicked off the year with President Trump, Elon Musk and DOGE demanding efficiency from federal workers and terminating workers deemed slothful or unnecessary. Now at year's end, White political conflict produced a so called government shutdown where federal employees who weren't fired months ago are now trembling with fear about being furloughed or missing out on a paycheck. There could be federal workers who been stressed and terrified for an entire year wondering if they still have employment. This sort of prolonged strain can easily cause a serious mental breakdown and is further proof of Dr. Frances Cress Welsing's conclusion that Victims of Racism do not qualify for mental health. #NoPoliticsOnTheJob #INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: http://cash.app/$TheCOWS Call: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#

How is it that Trump seems to have infinite power when Biden, during his trifecta, had none? Did Trump really just do what we were told is impossible: overrule the parliamentarian? Why are Democrats making this a fight about healthcare rather than the fact that the GOP has already effectively shut down the government through their DOGE activities? And why should we be very very scared of OMB director Russell Vought? Subscribe to Bad Faith on YouTube for video of this episode.

Inez Stepman of the Independent Women's Forum fills in for Jim on the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch. Join Inez and Greg as they explain why the government shutdown gives President Trump the opportunity for DOGE 2.0, how the assassination of Charlie Kirk gives college administrators more ability to stifle conservative speech on campus, Hamas asking for absurd changes to the Gaza plan, and Islamist terrorism in England.First, they welcome President Trump's plans to cut parts of government through powers he holds during this government shutdown. Inez explains what Trump and OMB Director Russell Vought can do in this situation and how it is long overdue.They also focus briefly on the Dems' demand for extending Obamacare subsidies. Inez details how the high cost of health care is just one of countless ways the right has been proven right about the disaster of Obamacare.Next, they revisit Inez's concerns from last month that the Charlie Kirk assassination would give colleges and universities a more plausible reason to reject conservative speakers on campus. The security needs are just too expensive. New York University Law School is proving her right. NYU Law refused to allow the campus chapter of the Federalist Society to host Ilya Shapiro on October 7. NYU officials say the likelihood of intense protests is just too great. Inez reveals why this is just the tip of the iceberg.Finally, they shake their heads as Hamas reportedly like the Trump plan for Gaza, except for the part about Hamas leaving Gaza and being demilitarized. Inez says it will likely be up to the Arab supporters of the deal to force Hamas to comply. Inez and Greg also react to the Islamist terrorist attack in England, where two people were stabbed to death outside a synagogue on Yom Kippur. Inez reveals just how bleak the outlook is for the UK unless major policy changes happen very soon.Please visit our great sponsors:Get 20% off your first purchase of classic menswear.

For decades, government shutdowns meant temporary furloughs that were painful but reversible. Now, Trump and his cronies are using the threat of mass, permanent firings to gut the very institutions that protect our food, our air, our water, our workers, and our democracy itself. Trump going after James Comey is the height of authoritarian revenge politics, and the bitter irony is impossible to miss.

Grumpy Old Geeks is back with another round of righteous griping and eyebrow-raising headlines in Episode 715: Our Wizard Lies. We kick things off in FOLLOW UP, where TikTok is still the geopolitical hot potato that both the U.S. and China promise to sort out “someday, maybe,” while Wired's global editorial director explains how tech's growing political clout is playing out under Trump. From there, it's a cavalcade of absurdities: DOGE as federal workforce demolition derby, and crypto bros trying to turn Charlie Kirk's death into meme-stock retirement plans. Late-stage capitalism is nothing if not creative.Then in IN THE NEWS, Amazon gets spanked with a $2.5 billion fine for Prime trickery, Microsoft yanks cloud services from an Israeli military unit, and Palantir goes full lifestyle brand—yes, you too can cosplay as a drone strike enthusiast with a $99 pair of gym shorts. Silicon Valley philosophers warn AI regulation would literally summon the Antichrist, while banks whisper the bubble might pop before the devil even arrives. Meanwhile, YouTube toys with letting COVID and election denialists back into the algorithm, “SIM farms” threaten New York's cell networks, and unlucky tourists are finding themselves trafficked into cyber-scam slavery across Southeast Asia. Progress!MEDIA CANDY tries to lighten the mood—sort of—serving up everything from Elio, Tron: Ares, and Disney price hikes to AI musicians cashing million-dollar checks. Lionsgate, on the other hand, learns you can't feed four John Wicks into an algorithm and get an anime out the other side. Over in THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, we get furries on the DC Metro, Disney plotting your every park step via Ray-Ban spy glasses, a Ponzi scheme in RadioShack cosplay, and even a Jim Henson Company anniversary auction. We close out with shout-outs and sighs, because sometimes the world doesn't deserve a mic drop—just a slow shake of the head.Sponsors:Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.
