Facebook founder and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has decided to fall in line with other business leaders who are kissing Donald Trump's ring by hiring a former Republican official to be the company's new head of public policy. This is an obvious attempt to suck up to Trump and the entire Republican Party that will control every branch of the federal government. Companies are bowing down in order to protect their profits, and the public will be the ones who get screwed in these deals.In another effort to appease Donald Trump, the Republican majority in the House of Representatives pledged late last week that they would investigate the January 6th Committee, though they were mum on why the Committee would even need to be investigated. Mike Johnson took issue with Liz Cheney receiving the Presidential Citizens Medal on Thursday, and responded by promising investigations into the Committee in response.The House Ethics Committee quietly announced on New Year's Eve that they were "dropping" multiple different investigations into multiple Republican lawmakers that had been accused of misusing campaign funds for their own personal gains. The dropping of these investigations shows that we cannot trust these people to police themselves and that we need an independent body to carry out these vital checks on those in power. Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron's content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FarronBalancedTwitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=enText and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!

00:00 Introductions 01:53 Blake Lively 12:40 Donald Trump Trolls Denmark 17:33 Matt Gaetz 23:48 Dumb Voters 32:15 The Death Penalty —Happy New Year! Up front, we berate all the podcasts who are on vacation and running old episodes.  They're all lazy, and not worth listening to.  We also quickly touch upon unsung hero Luigi Mangione, who was arrested in the McDonald's where Amy Vevera worked as a teenager. (For the record, Amy wouldn't have snitched.) —nathan cannot explain why he's so interested in this story, but he is.  Hollywood is an interesting animal, with publicists creating narratives that seemingly have nothing to do with reality. Man-bun douchenozzle Justin Baldoni apparently went after Blake Lively over the summer, and she just hit back, hard. With behind-the-scene texts and messages, it looks like she's going to do to Justin what Dominion did to Fox News. —Come hell or high water, the United States will own Greenland! And the Panama Canal! Not really, but it's funny (sad) that whenever Trump so obviously trolls, the media falls for it. And, not just the media, Denmark has upped defense spending to shore up Greenland. Which, if the U.S. really wanted it, means the invasion would take 5 minutes, instead of 5 seconds.  A side discussion involves nathan's travels to Japan, and Guam, and his visits to businesses of ill repute.  —Talk about luck… The House Ethics Committee released the damning report on Matt Gaetz, and he is offended. Everything we all suspected is apparently true: he drank, did drugs, and slept with teenage girls. (Or, at least one teenage girl.) But, hey: don't compare him to an Uber driver, because that would be unfair to the Uber driver. (They're kind, upstanding citizens. Unlike Gaetz.) Also: why don't Matt Gaetz and Hunter Biden have their own reality TV show? Give ‘em both money and drugs, and let them do what they do. Eff the Kardashians, I'd watch the Gaetz/Biden show all day long. —A couple weeks ago, really dumb Union Steelworkers were upset, because they supported Trump in the election, but then Trump said he wouldn't support a merger that would protect steelworker jobs. Now, NYC Firefighters, who for years have watched Republicans fight healthcare benefits for 9/11 workers, are shocked and upset that Republicans stripped benefits from the latest budget bill. Look, there's nothing wrong with voting Republican, just know exactly whey you're doing it: you don't care about anyone but yourself, and you're rich. That's it. Maybe you hate the LGBTQ community, sure, but if you're middle or working class, and you think voting Republican will help you? Well, it's sad/funny that reality is now biting you in the butt. Also: is college important?  Republicans say, “No!” unless it's their kids going. And foreign workers with good degrees. Then, “Yes.” Hypocrisy? Of course! The foundation of the Republican Party. —Speaking of hypocrisy… Joe Biden removed 37 of the 40 criminals on Death Row (federal prison), because the death penalty is bad. Oh, but he left the 3 fellas on, because what they did was REALLY bad. And by that, I mean, “political reasons.” Because ethics and morals have nothing to do with politics, which is the only reason anything gets done in Washington. Idiots on Parade: we mock the news, so you don't have to. Tune in and get your giggle on. Find Jake at @jakevevera Find nathan at nathantimmel.com

OA1104 - America's Dismayor, and other great stories to help close out 2024 on a positive note! Rudy Giuliani's long, greasy slide from the heights of New York power seems to be ending in the same Manhattan federal courthouse in which he made his career as the US Attorney for the Southern District of NY. We take a closer look at the often hilarious lengths America's former mayor has gone to in the past year to avoid paying the $148 million judgment he earned by casually defaming two hardworking Georgia election volunteers. Also discussed: why the House Ethics Committee decided to release its report on Matt Gaetz, Biden's commutation of 92% of the federal death row, and a legitimately good decision from the Supreme Court that we meant to talk about earlier. Finally, Matt drops a footnote with what he is promising will be the last time that he talks about fonts this year. Freeman v.
