Now, most people know the origin of that phrase—and what it actually means—but here’s the question: In a school context, is it appropriate?

Schools naturally do have policies against profanity, and they can send children home for violating them.

However, the phrase “Let’s Go Brandon” doesn’t actually contain profane words. If someone reads it, and they don’t happen to know the backstory, then it doesn’t even mean anything to them.

The school officials did not see it that way, though, and they ordered the brothers to remove the sweatshirts.

This then led to a lawsuit by the brothers' parents over free speech. Can school administrators exercise this much discretion when deciding whether something is vulgar?

This case appears to be far-reaching, as evidenced by the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to take it up.

Let's go through the details together.

Unbeknownst to most people, there is a serious effort in this country to make the presidential election a simple popular vote. Even though most people have never heard about this effort, it’s actually already 82 percent complete. Meaning the Electoral College is truly at risk of getting completely scrapped in the near future.

The ironic thing about this is that it may not necessarily be unconstitutional. Instead, this method is using a loophole in the way that the constitution set up our federalist system.

This effort is officially called the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (otherwise known as the NPVIC)—it’s an agreement between the states that join to give their electoral votes to whichever candidate wins the popular vote at the national level.

Over at King’s College London, researchers had ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini form teams and play simulated war games against each other. Altogether, they played 21 games, and in 20 of the games, the systems reached for the button. During the experiment, none of the models ever chose to surrender—and instead, 95 percent of the time, the AI models chose to use nuclear weapons during the war.

Let’s go through the details of this study together.

Funston was convicted in 1999 of sexual abuse of children, including kidnapping and lewd and lascivious acts with a minor.

He was sentenced to prison to serve out three life sentences. So far, Funston, now 64, has been sitting in prison for 27 years.

The California Parole Board granted him early release under California’s Elderly Parole Program, which allows inmates who are over the age of 50 and have served at least 20 years or more to be released early.

The thinking is that he is no longer a danger to society.

Let’s go through the details together.

Let’s go through which countries are asking (and which countries are mandating) people to work from home.

This trial—officially called the LOC-NESS project—took place last August 50 miles off the coast of Massachusetts. Scientists from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution poured several tons of the bright red chemical into the water over the course of four days. The thinking is that by making the ocean more alkaline, it will suck in more CO2 from the atmosphere, and turn it into baking soda.

Let’s go through the details together.

Let’s go through the details of his case together.

However, if different countries and foreign businesses were breathing a sigh of relief, it was very short-lived. That’s because within about an hour, Trump announced that he’s using a different law to implement a new set of tariffs, which, for some countries, are actually higher than the previous tariffs.

Let me break down the details of the case, as well as the grand, master plan behind the tariffs, which most other media missed in their reporting.

You might remember the apocalyptic imagery that came out of that explosion—it looked like a nuclear bomb had gone off.

Three years later, anecdotal evidence is showing that the residents are experiencing thyroid disease, cancers, respiratory problems, neurological issues, asthma, and other problems.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has now announced a $10 million research project to study the long-term health effects on the people living there.

Let’s review what took place there in 2023, what the effects appear to be now, as well as what the NIH is doing about it.

At first glance, it appears like just another interesting take on the zombie genre.

But believe it or not, the game is actually based on a real-life genus of fungus called cordyceps, which survives by infecting insects, hijacking their immune systems, and turning them into vessels that the fungus then controls. The fungus parasite then guides the insect body to a desirable location where it can spread to other hosts.

While the concept that a fungus can turn humans into mindless zombies might seem far-fetched, there is already mounting concern within the scientific community that mutating strains of fungi are rapidly evolving in response to changing climate, to the point where they are beginning to present a real threat to human health.

In recent years, several genera of fungi (which had previously not been a problem) are now able to infect humans.

Let’s go through the current state of pathogenic fungi.

Instead of creating a pillow to cushion the impact, these made-in-China airbags acted like grenades—so far killing eight drivers in what would’ve otherwise been survivable crashes—and seriously injuring two others.

Let’s go through what we know about these airbags, how they’re getting into cars, why they’re killing people, as well as how you can check your own car to see whether you’re safe.

Since the start of the report, the dollar amount of the government “waste” he cites has grown significantly.

In 2015, it was a little over a billion dollars. By 2019, it was $50 billion dollars. The latest report for 2025 showed that the figure hit a cool $1.639 trillion dollars. It’s worth mentioning that a huge portion of that total comes from interest payments on the national debt, which Senator Paul now includes in his overall tally. U.S. taxpayers paid $1.22 trillion dollars in interest just to service the national debt last year. That is significantly more than the Pentagon’s entire budget—and given the fact that that money is literally going to nothing other than interest, there’s a good case to be made to include that figure in the overall wasted spending report.

Setting the interest payments aside, let’s go through nine of the most interesting examples of government waste from the report.

This is money that is not taxable; it’s not a loan, meaning you don’t have to pay it back, and also, because of the type of account that it is (an investment account that the child can’t touch until he’s 18) by the time your child is ready to take the money out, that $1,000 dollars might have grown substantially.

If the market continued to have the same historical returns that it typically does—8 percent or 10 percent a year—it means that by the time your child is 18, they will have an account with as much as $6,000 in it. And by the time they’re 28, that account could have upwards of $28,000 dollars in it. Meaning, that this is a fairly good opportunity, and something that you should definitely not miss.

The announcement came in the form of a statement from multiple state attorneys general, who were collectively suing Google for anti-competitive practices.

Google decided to settle this lawsuit—along with several other concessions—and, in so doing, will pay $700 million, the bulk of which will go to the actual users.

Let’s go through the details of the case: what Google was accused of doing, how the settlement money will be disbursed, and how you can know if you qualify.

President Donald Trump signed an executive memo, starting the process of aligning the U.S. childhood vaccine schedule with other developed nations.

West Virginia is flip-flopping on the question of whether to allow religious exemptions for school vaccines.

On Dec. 4, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the redrawn election map for Texas will be allowed to stand.

Here, we go through the backstory of the case, as well as what it means for the upcoming midterm elections.

I’ve also seen quite a few business videos, of people criticizing the United States for not allowing Chinese TVs into our market—for fear it would collapse U.S. auto manufacturing.

Now, that might all be true. However, there’s another factor to consider, which is that when you’re dealing with a Communist nation like China, nothing is ever as it seems. Case in point, Norway is now finding out that the Electric buses they’ve been buying from the Chinese have a backdoor—which allows them to be disabled remotely. i.e. by someone outside of Norway.

Let’s dive into this particular story together, because through it a lot of different issues get exposed to the public including how government officials try to save money by buying from China, only to find out that the stuff they bought contains literal kill-switches that can be activated by Communist cadres in the CCP.

On the flip side, the decision on whether or not to sell Nvidia’s AI chips to China now sits on President Donald Trump’s desk. Until that’s settled, some people are allegedly getting creative with AI chip “exports.” Four men were recently arrested by the feds and accused of selling AI chips directly to China and making off with $4 million in the process. Let’s go through it all together.

However, there are factors at play that may stop this plan entirely. Let’s go through what those factors are.

Now, the memo is long (it’s over 5,000 words) and it’s filled with data, graphs, charts, and anecdotes—laying out the argument that climate change is not going to lead to the end of civilization, that measuring temperatures isn’t the best measure of progress on the issue, and that thirdly, the money being spent on climate related issues would be better allocated towards improving human health and prosperity.

By itself, this isn’t exactly news, but it does add to a growing body of research that shows that people who actually go through with “gender-affirming surgeries” have higher rates of suicide and poorer mental health outcomes than those who don’t.

Let’s go through this research together.

After many years of being fed up with the policies coming out of Portland, over a third of the counties in Oregon have voted to secede. Specifically, they voted to leave Oregon and join the state of Idaho. This is part of a growing regional shift known as the "Greater Idaho" movement.

What’s truly interesting about this particular movement is that it might actually succeed.

Ixchiq is a vaccine for Chikungunya, a mosquito-borne disease. The vaccine was initially approved to be administered in the United States in November 2023, under the FDA’s fast-tracked accelerated approval pathway.

Let’s go through what the data showed, as well as why the FDA decided this move to stop the vaccine was necessary.

At least, they have to for now—because it looks like the U.S. Supreme Court is poised to change this soon.

Let’s go through the details together.

Texas Democrats fled the state in order to avoid voting on the map, but warrants for their arrests have now been issued.

Let’s go through the details of this drama together.

He was found guilty for his role in the procurement, casting, and tabulation of fraudulent mail-in ballots submitted in connection with the general election on Nov. 8, 2022.

The man in question is a political organizer and former president of Atlantic City’s city council—Craig Callaway. His story is quite interesting—because not only does it highlight a concrete example of major ballot fraud, but also, it shows us how this type of fraud cuts across party lines—being used by both Republicans and Democrats.

We covered this story briefly when the charges against Callaway first came to light last year. Now let’s go through the details of his election operations in Atlantic City.

The leak came as tensions continue to grow in the Asia-Pacific region, with the Chinese regime acting with ever more aggression and increasing its air and sea incursions into Taiwan’s air defense identification and exclusive economic zones.

Let’s listen to the audio recording, and then go through the details of what actions both Taiwan and China are currently engaged in.

The scheme involved dozens of individuals having their identities used, both wittingly and unwittingly, to request mail-in ballots and cast fraudulent votes.

Let’s go through the details of the scheme together, as well as how it was ultimately uncovered by the authorities.

This latest batch of discharge weighed approximately 7,800 tons, or around 15.6 million pounds.

Including this latest batch, it means that Japan has dumped an estimated 86,000 tons of nuclear wastewater into the Pacific Ocean thus far. This sounds like a lot, but it’s actually only the beginning. Its plan is to continue doing this for the next 30 years, and in the process, dump roughly 1.3 million tons of nuclear wastewater.

The reason for this stems from what happened 14 years ago, during the Fukushima nuclear disaster. That was when an earthquake and subsequent tsunami caused a near meltdown of the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant.

The disaster led to the contamination of a million tons of water.

For the past 14 years, Japan has kept this water inside the plant, where it has been slowly treating it. But it ran out of space. Therefore, the Japanese government began to slowly release this treated radioactive water into the Pacific Ocean.

Let's go through the full story, as well as what the latest research has found, in terms of the effects that this wastewater is having on the local marine life.

Let’s go through the details of why he chose to gut this committee, as well as who he chose to replace the fired members.

Last month, the White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, Stephen Miller, said that the second Trump administration was determined “to clean up the census and make sure that illegal aliens are not counted.”

Mr. Miller didn’t mention it in that speech, but the ramifications of making this kind of change would be dramatic. This is because the census count is used to apportion the number of House seats that each state gets, to determine the number of votes that each state has in the electoral college, and to decide where trillions of dollars in government funds should flow. Meaning that the question of whether or not illegal aliens are counted could determine who controls the U.S. House of Representatives after 2030.

Let’s go through the details of the Trump administration’s plan together.

The parents wanted to be able to opt their kids out of having to learn that material.

After several years of litigation, the parents proved successful in their case, and in the process they opened the door for the rest of the country to do the same.

Let’s go through the details together.

The text of the bill prohibited health care providers from administering puberty blockers or hormones for the purpose of “enabling a minor to identify with, or live as, a purported identity inconsistent with the minor’s sex [or] treating purported discomfort or distress from a discordance between the minor’s sex and asserted identity.”

This law applied to anyone in the state below the age of 18—even if that child had obtained their parents' consent.

However, the law did allow for some exceptions. Children who needed these treatments for medical reasons would still be allowed to have them. For instance, under the law as it was written, a child who experienced early onset puberty could still be given puberty blockers by their doctor. It’s just that these interventions could no longer be given to children simply because they identified as transgender.

Within days of passing, the law was challenged in court.

Civil rights groups sued the state, arguing that the law was a violation of the 14th Amendment’s equal protection clause. On the flip side, the state of Tennessee argued that this wasn’t discrimination; rather, it was simply the regulation of medical care for minors—something well within the purview of the state.

The case eventually made its way up to the U.S. Supreme Court where, after hearing both sides of the argument, there was a 6–3 split decision in favor of Tennessee—and in favor of the other 25 states that have similar laws on their books.

Let’s go through the details of this ruling together.

Let’s go through the legal history of this program, as well as what remnants of it remain within the U.S. Department of Agriculture today.

This new ruling opens the door wider for such “reverse discrimination” cases—cases where the person discriminated against is part of the so-called majority group.

Let’s go through the details of the case together, as well as what this ruling means for all of us moving forward.

We ended that episode by considering out loud: How many other Chinese researchers here in the United States are possibly doing the same thing?

Within a week, another Chinese researcher, who was also from the University of Michigan, was caught by federal authorities for attempting to smuggle biological material. This time it wasn’t a fungus. It was a type of roundworm.

The concerning part of it was that this Chinese researcher came from Wuhan, China.

Let’s go through the details together.

Let’s go through the details of the case, what the specific issue at play was, what the Supreme Court ruling said, as well as what it means for Americans who don’t necessarily live in Wisconsin.

Along those lines, the U.S. Supreme Court delivered two significant victories for DOGE in two separate cases late last week. Let’s go through these cases together.

The reason for the arrest was that this scholar was allegedly part of a scheme to smuggle a biological pathogen into the United States.

Specifically, she and her boyfriend were trying to smuggle in a type of fungus that can be used to target food crops here in America (things like wheat, barley, and rice). This particular fungus would have the effect of absolutely decimating these crops. In fact, the feds characterized this plot as being a form of “agroterrorism,” or agricultural terrorism.

Furthermore, after looking into it, it turns out that this latest incident wasn’t this couple’s first time—as they’ve actually smuggled in viral pathogens on several other occasions as well.

Now that the FBI’s indictment has been unsealed in federal court, let’s go through the details of it all together—because the details are wild.

How do you take an airplane from the Middle East, and convert it into a jet that’s adequate for the President of the United States? Also, the US government was saying that even if they were to accept the plane, it would take billions of dollars, and several years, to convert it into an Air Force One jet.

Now, that piqued my interest—and it sent me and my researcher down a rabbit hole into the capabilities of Air Force One. And while many of them are classified, many others are not — such as the fact that one model of Air Force One has a shield in place that can withstand nuclear EMP attacks.

The backstory for this situation is fascinating, so let’s go through it together.

The man in question is former Sergeant Michael McMahon—who previously worked for the New York Police Department. After leaving the police force, however, he went into the private sector as a private investigator, and it was in this capacity that he became entangled in a Chinese Communist Party operation called “Operation Fox Hunt.”

He then placed Elon Musk in charge of that department, with the stated goal to root out government waste and fraud. And what’s been happening for the past three months is that DOGE has found a lot of what it calls wasteful spending. It’s not just “finding it,” however. Different departments of the government are taking steps to cut spending and cancel contracts, based on DOGE’s recommendations.

According to the official tally, DOGE’s efforts have saved U.S. taxpayers roughly $160 billion—which is equivalent to just under $1,000 saved for every U.S. taxpayer.

However, for a variety of reasons, most media have stopped devoting major coverage to DOGE’s efforts. There was a lot of coverage at the beginning, when many people were getting laid off, but recently, immigration-related news has taken a lot of the oxygen out of the news cycle, and therefore, most people don’t know what DOGE has been up to recently.

Today, we give you a comprehensive update on what DOGE has been doing for the past month.

The issue that this amendment would try and fix has to do with the fact that both wealthy Americans, as well as wealthy foreigners, are able to shape local American elections (including referendums, ballot initiatives, and recalls). In fact, there are some local elections in the country where close to 90 percent of the donations came from out-of-state. This raises the question—if someone is elected under those conditions, do they really represent the will of their local constituents?

As a possible answer to that question, there is a new proposed amendment to the Constitution which has now been endorsed by 23 out of the necessary 38 states.

This amendment, if passed, would officially become the 28th amendment to the U.S. Constitution—and it would allow the banning of both foreign (as well as out-of-state funding) in local races.

But, very notably, the underlying legal issues weren’t actually examined. The question of whether the Alien Enemies Act could really be used against illegal immigrants such as Venezuelan gang members wasn’t ruled on.

Therefore, more lawsuits were filed. And one of those new lawsuits bore fruit, as the U.S. Supreme Court decided to stop the Trump administration from being able to deport members of Tren de Aragua, for now.

This decision is especially crucial given the fact that the election in question is currently split by only about 700 votes—meaning this one decision can actually change the outcome of the race.

In this episode, we sit down with Mark Chenoweth from the New Civil Liberties Alliance to discuss their landmark victory in the ruling that overturned the 40-year-old “Chevron deference” precedent, fundamentally reshaping the balance of power between federal agencies and the judiciary. Once, courts deferred to agencies’ expertise when interpreting ambiguous laws; now, federal judges hold the reins to decide what those laws mean—ushering in a new era of judicial policymaking.

We dive into the “Chevron Difference,” exploring what this win means for the future of regulatory law and agency authority. From environmental protections to workplace safety and drug pricing, the fallout of this ruling could ripple across every corner of American life.

Join us as we unpack the profound implications of this decision for the rule of law, the role of unelected judges, and the ability of federal agencies to safeguard the public. This is a conversation you won’t want to miss.

Join us for a thoughtful and informative discussion on these developments, their impact, and what they mean for the future.

Almost immediately, he got to work on implementing his agenda—issuing roughly 200 executive orders, executive actions, proclamations, and memoranda within just a matter of hours.

Let’s go through several of them together that relate to the federal workforce.

Part of the reason it matters is because aside from individual achievement, the medal count is a real point of pride for every country.

In fact, during the Olympic Games, almost every news media keeps a running total on its front page of how many medals each country has won.

In 2024, the USA won the overall medal count. Our athletes earned a total of 126 medals—35 more medals than second place China. But, if you only look at gold medals, we actually tied with China, with both countries getting 40.

That might be good enough for some, but in 2028, we as a country should accept nothing less than complete victory. That means American athletes need to step it up to win as many gold medals as possible.

To that end, we should discuss a sport that American athletes are having difficulty competing in: racewalking. At the Paris Olympics, no American athletes qualified to compete.

Not only did no Americans win, we failed to even qualify to compete.

However, many people don’t know that besides racewalking being one of the longest-running (pun intended) events held in modern-era Olympics, the sport was allegedly also the most popular in the United States at the end of the 19th century—only to have its popularity completely fall off a cliff.

In order to make sense of this sport I spoke with professor Jeff Salvage. He is a lifelong racewalker, a coach to many top Olympic contenders, and the founder and CEO of racewalk.com, which served as the U.S. racewalking committee’s official website for nearly a decade.

It went unnoticed by so many because of everything else that was happening at the time.

However, the ruling was truly monumental because it effectively cut Oklahoma’s claim to the land in the state in half.

In 1830, President Andrew Jackson signed a treaty that established an area encompassing almost the entire eastern half of present-day Oklahoma as a Native American reservation.

But over the past 190 years, different laws and treaties have effectively chipped away at those lands—and the claims that Native Americans have to them.

That all changed in 2020, however, when the U.S. Supreme Court determined that the laws and treaties passed in the past 200 years have not disestablished these reservations and that the Native Americans who live there still have certain rights because of their unique status on those lands.

Furthermore, the Supreme Court ruling confirmed that the Native American citizens residing on these reservations no longer fall under the jurisdiction of Oklahoma state and local police but rather under the purview of local tribal police and the federal government.

The reason that this matters for people outside of Oklahoma is that this ruling also sets a precedent that other Native American tribes across the United States could use to claw back land that was promised to them by treaties signed hundreds of years ago.

So let’s go through the details of this case—and tease out the implications it could have for other states moving forward.
