In this episode, Alex talks about word salads, Tucker Carlson’s martyrdom, why a third party could spoil democracy, and how an ex-Fugees rapper was involved in a multi-national conspiracy.
- Alex starts by covering two recent word salads produced by key political figures. One salad was made by Kamala Harris who again tried to give a philisophical speech about the moment we are living in, and instead confused everyone. The second salad was made by Tucker Carlson who finally spoke out after his ousting at Fox News. After a few days of reflection, Alex discusses why he thinks the firing of Fox News was a bad idea both politically and financially for Fox News.
- Next, Alex analyzes Biden’s announcement to run for reelection in 2024 and why he thinks Biden could beat Trump. However, Alex worries that “No Labels” a third party option could prove to be a spoiler for Democrats and democracy, because the group has made unfair comparisons to Trump and Biden. Because there are more moderates remaining in the Democratic Party, Alex argues that “No Labels” would just take votes from Biden.
- Finally, the former-rapper, Pras Michel, was found guilty in an international influence case. The case sounds like a political thriller involving Malyasia, China, and the United States. The scheme tried to influnce two presidential administrations (Trump and Obama) and it involved testimonies from Leonardo DiCaprio and Jeff Sessions.
