#652 Many going cash only due to multiple robberies

TODAY: We look at the newest and (rather dull) assassination attempt on Trump’s life—and switch gears immediately to focus on his far more interesting would-be assailant and the myriad of… passionate right wing responses to the latest re-hashed story beat in this election cycle. We look at potential shooter Ryan Routh’s incredible online presence, filled with disillusionment over Donald Trump and Tulsi Gabbard and his ideas about saving Ukraine with Elon Musk rockets and a star-studded charity song called “We Are One.” Are future assassination attempts going to get even more anticlimactic? Will disillusioned Trump fans keep trying to kill him? Are we seeing a rise in the militant swing voter?

TODAY: We cover the right’s response to Kamala’s overperformance in the debate, with the cope reaching “Haitian pogrom” levels. Did Kamala hire a rogue gaffer to distract Trump with lights? Did she use an earpiece to receive her responses? Did ABC lose $27 million dollars because of their unfair treatment of Trump? Maybe! ALSO: With Trump’s claims about Haitian migrants “eating pets” thoroughly debunked, the right continues it’s anti-immigrant frenzy with inane AI slop, pointing guns at their computer screens, and even liberals get in on the jokes about Haitians eating pets.

TODAY: In a liberal's wet dream, prominent conservative pundits are revealed to be on the payroll of actual Russian agents. We revisit some of their hits and wonder how we can secure a similar bag. PLUS: We look into one of the many hoaxes being pushed this election season: Venezuelan Drug Landlords. We listen to a viral Tik Tok about the supposed gang takeover and follow the thread to the actual story: Venezuelan refugees being exploited by an absentee Slumlord who hired a PR firm to spread this story.

TODAY: S.F. State University and Portland, Maine successfully divest from Israel's weapons suppliers in a victory for Pro-Palestine protesters and definitely not a loss for zionists who don't care at all PLUS: A comedian gets confused in a drug store and becomes a right wing sensation as they project their racist beliefs onto one of the closing Rite Aids. We reminisce about the old days of browsing Rite Aid for hours on end--a tradition lost to uh wokeness or something. And we discuss the right's instinct to side with business despite that business's complicity in the opioid epidemic.

TODAY: Trump goes double siko mode on veterans--making fun of them for dying to get a medal of honor as opposed to giving him a bunch of money like Miriam Adelson, then shooting a campaign video at Arlington Natl. Cemetary where a member of his group also allegedly assaulted a female employee. PLUS: In a direct assault on memes, a Texas sixth-grader is suspended and handcuffed for saying he wanted to blow up like Riff Raff. We defend both the kid and the rapper AND: Australian workers win (nebulous) protections from off-hours contact by employers and a bunch of guys who might be employers one day take an issue with it.

TODAY: Alex is joined by Jake and Adam from the excellent Labor Valley Report to talk about an important working class issue—the bizarre right wing comments they get on their YouTube videos. PLUS: A smackdown I got from one of their viewers after my appearance on their show, and a different argument with a fellow Teamster over Trump’s NLRB history. ALSO: We cover 2 huge NLRB rulings from the last week: Amazon drivers in California were determined to be Amazon employees (as opposed to independent contractors) by a regional office of the National Labor Relations Board, and the national board certified the Amazon Labor Union in Staten Island. We talk about the loopholes companies use to further erode wages and labor power, and the necessity of making coalitions with people from different backgrounds. Solidarity is the way.

TODAY: Ani helps us cover the DNC in the only way it could possibly be interesting: through the eyes of right wing psychopaths on Facebook.  The Democrats perform free abortions in the DNC parking lot and steal the genders of religious attendees; Ella Emhoff presents a worst-case scenario for any parent (child with tattoos and hat), while Tim Walz’s 17 year old son demonstrates what it means to be a cucked modern male (love your dad);  And speaking of Tim Walz, the demonic VP candidate betrays christians everywhere by saying he used IVF instead of a different reproductive medical procedure Sign up at http://patreon.com/miniondeathcult for $5/month and get a bonus episode every week  

"You're more Native American than my people ever were." Alex is on vacation so we're re-releasing an old episode, one of our favorites. We'll be back next week. Until then, Patreon supporters are still getting bonus episodes. Support the show at http://patreon.com/miniondeathcult  And please enjoy To Die For. You may learn something. We watched To Die For, the astonishing new film from the wildly reactionary mind of Duke's of Hazzard's John Schneider. A green-screen, anti-teen fever dream, the movie chronicles Quint North (John Schneider), a veteran of some war, who is intent on triggering the local high school quarterback after he takes a knee during the national anthem.  Quint's Native American neighbor, Wes, is the avenue for our main character to reel off Gran Torino style racial slurs at a flag-hating libtard, but this Native American Democrat will eventually come to respect the "crazy old white man's" fight against the modern world. Quint also faces: a daughter filing a restraining order against him on behalf of the high school, the same local quarterback threatening to kill his dog, and a young woman cop who orders a vanilla latte. Will sanity prevail? Will the American flag truly be... To Die For?

FINALLY: Harley Bikers are on strike as the classic motorcycle company goes woke again. Will the nation’s landlords ultimately relinquish their Outlaw Biker status?
