IT'S TIME TO STRIKE-STRIKE | The Final Word

This week on The Final Word, Frangela is bringing the heat, the receipts, and the clarity you need to cut through the chaos. We’re not here to play—we’re here to break it all down with intelligence, insight, and a whole lot of truth.We begin with the tragic killing of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University. The media calls him a “conservative activist,” but we’re digging deeper into the rise of political violence and the dangerous role far-right extremism and white nationalism continue to play in American discourse. This isn’t just a moment—it’s a warning.Next, we unpack the staggering revision in job numbers: 911,000 fewer jobs than originally reported. That’s not a rounding error—that’s a reality check. What does it mean for working people, and why aren’t we talking about it more?Then we turn to Michigan, where a judge dismissed charges against 15 Republicans who signed false certificates claiming to be Trump electors in 2020. The implications for accountability and election integrity are chilling.Meanwhile, the Missouri House approved a new congressional map that conveniently erases one Democratic seat. Gerrymandering isn’t new, but this level of shamelessness deserves its own spotlight.And in a move that has civil rights advocates sounding alarms, the Justice Department is pushing to build a national voter roll database and share it with Homeland Security. We’re asking: who benefits, and who gets left out?Finally, Trump brushed off the release of his 2003 birthday letter to Jeffrey Epstein as a “dead issue.” But when it comes to proximity to power and predators, we believe the public deserves more than dismissal.It’s been a craptastic week, but Frangela’s got the final word—smart, sharp, and unapologetically real. Tune in, because understanding the mess is the first step to cleaning it up.Do you want to hear more Idiots of the Week??

This week on Something Ain’t Right, Frangela is serving up a full plate of “what in the actual hell” with a side of righteous rage and a sprinkle of petty.First up, we cast the longest, deepest, most ancestral side-eye at the MAGA influencers who are out here trying to rehabilitate Hitler’s image. Yes, you heard that right. They’ve gone from rewriting history to straight-up auditioning for villain origin stories. We are not here for it, and we will not let it slide.Then we talk about Trump threatening the city of Chicago with the newly rebranded “Department of War.” That’s not a movie plot—that’s a sitting U.S. President threatening an American city. If your jaw’s on the floor, welcome to the club.Meanwhile, broadcasters at this year’s U.S. Open were allegedly told not to show negative reactions to Trump. And guess what? They complied. So now we’re censoring facial expressions? Blink twice if you’re being held hostage by bad optics.And finally, we tip our wigs to South Park for introducing us to the viral Labubu dolls—and their chaotic, bootleg cousins, the Lafufus. It’s giving haunted toy energy, and we’re obsessed.Frangela’s got the truth, the tea, and the side-eye you need to survive the madness. Because when the world keeps showing out, Something Ain’t Right is here to call it out loud.Do you want to hear more Idiots of the Week??

We begin with the powerful press conference held by survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell at the Capitol. These courageous women stood tall, reclaimed their voices, and demanded real accountability from lawmakers. It was raw, it was righteous, and it was long overdue.Then we turn our gaze to Health Secretary RFK Jr.—aka Brain Worms—who got absolutely grilled by the Senate. More than 1,000 current and former HHS employees have called for his resignation, and after watching that hearing, we’re wondering how he’s still holding onto his badge and parking space.Meanwhile, Trump’s out here trying to play political puppet master, allegedly offering Mayor Eric Adams a federal job to quietly nudge him out of the New York mayoral race. Because nothing says “democracy” like backroom deals and hush-hush handshakes.Down in Florida, the state is gearing up to become the first to eliminate all childhood vaccine mandates—including for public school kids. We’re not saying it’s reckless, but if you hear coughing in the background, don’t say we didn’t warn you.And in a rare moment of judicial clarity, a Federal Appeals Court blocked Trump from using the Alien Enemies Act to deport alleged Venezuelan gang members. Turns out, even the Constitution has limits—who knew?Plus, we read a bunch of your emails, and y’all did not hold back. From outrage to insight to pure comedy, we love hearing from you.Do you want to hear more Idiots of the Week??

This week on Something Ain’t Right, Frangela is side-eyeing so hard we might sprain something. The foolishness is flying fast, and we’re here to catch every last bit of it.First up, Trump’s federal workforce cuts are looking real targeted—and not in a subtle way. Black women are being pushed out like it’s a clearance sale on competence, and we’re not about to let that slide. When your “restructuring” looks like a purge, something ain’t right.Then we take a detour into the bizarre: Trump’s Pentagon pick claims he’s being stalked by an astrology influencer. Yes, you heard that correctly. Not a foreign agent. Not a lobbyist. An astrology influencer. We don’t know what Mercury’s doing in retrograde, but apparently it’s got folks filing restraining orders.Next, in a move so wrong it defies logic, two firefighters were arrested and detained at an ICE facility while actively responding to the Bear Gulch fire. They were literally trying to save lives, and ICE said, “Not on our watch.” If that doesn’t make your blood boil, check your pulse.And finally, we dive into the Netflix documentary The Truth About Jussie Smollett??—yes, we’re adding our own question mark because the whole thing is still a mess wrapped in confusion, sprinkled with drama. Is it truth, is it spin, or is it just another chapter in the saga of “What Even Is This?”When the world keeps showing out, Something Ain’t Right is here to call it out loud.Our Sponsors:* Check out Rosetta Stone and use my code TODAY for a great deal: https://www.rosettastone.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week on The Final Word, Frangela is grieving, raging, and refusing to let the madness slide under the radar. We begin with the horrific shooting at Annunciation Catholic School, where 23-year-old Robin Westman fired through church windows, killing two children and injuring seventeen others. And right on cue, the “thoughts and prayers” brigade dusts off their empty platitudes while doing absolutely nothing to stop the violence. We’re not here for it.Meanwhile in Portland, ICE—Trump’s personal army—gassed a public school into submission. Because apparently, protecting children now means traumatizing them with chemical weapons. The cruelty isn’t just the point—it’s the policy.The FDA quietly revoked emergency use authorizations for COVID-19 vaccines and restricted access to new shots. And RFK Jr., aka Brain-Worm, fired the newly confirmed CDC director for the crime of not supporting Trump’s agenda. Science? Facts? Public health? Not in this administration.Over at FEMA, at least 30 employees were placed on administrative leave after signing a letter warning that Trump’s leadership has left the agency unable to respond to major disasters. When the people tasked with saving lives are sidelined for telling the truth, something ain’t right.And in Trump’s latest fantasy firing spree, he claims to have dismissed Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook over unproven mortgage fraud allegations. No evidence, no process, just vibes and vengeance.But we end on a high note: Democrats flipped a Republican-held Iowa Senate seat, breaking the GOP’s supermajority. It’s a glimmer of hope in a week full of heartbreak.Frangela’s got the fire, the fury, and the final word on a week that proves once again—if you’re not outraged, you’re not paying attention.Our Sponsors:* Check out Rosetta Stone and use my code TODAY for a great deal: https://www.rosettastone.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week on Something Ain’t Right, Frangela is serving up the truth with a side of side-eye so strong it might cause whiplash.First, we roll up to Douglas Dietrich’s front yard, where he’s decided to go full xenophobic with a sign asking Trump to deport his neighbors. Yes, you read that right—he skipped the dog whistle and went straight to the bullhorn. We’ve got questions, but mostly we’ve got judgment.Then we head to California, where families thought they’d found a safe haven for their transgender kids. But now, clinics are halting care, leaving vulnerable youth in limbo. In a state that’s supposed to be progressive, this is not just heartbreaking—it’s infuriating.And just when you thought the early 2000s were safely behind us, Hooters is staging a comeback. Neil Kiefer wants to “re-Hooterize” the original "breastaurant," because apparently what the world needs now is more wings and objectification. We’re not sure who asked for this, but it wasn’t us.Finally, we tackle the loaded question: is sex positivity a “lax attitude” when raising a teenage girl? Or is the real problem the way people react to the idea of girls having agency, knowledge, and boundaries? Spoiler alert: the pearl-clutching is loud, but the hypocrisy is louder.Frangela’s got the receipts, the real talk, and the righteous fury to help you make sense of it all. Because when the world starts acting up, Something Ain’t Right is here to call it out.Do you want to hear more Idiots of the Week??

This week on The Final Word, Frangela is breaking down the latest chapter in the Trumpian fever dream, and honey, it’s giving full dystopia with a side of delusion.First up, the Texas House passed a redistricting bill so gerrymandered it might as well come with a MAGA loyalty oath. And just to make sure democracy stays gagged and bound, the House Speaker ordered 24-hour surveillance on Democrats courtesy of the Department of Public Safety. Because nothing says “freedom” like armed government babysitters.Meanwhile, Trump has apparently decided he’s a war hero now—claiming he stopped six or seven wars, depending on which personality is talking that day. And if that wasn’t enough, he’s also floating the idea that he’s heaven-bound. We’re not theologians, but we’re pretty sure lying, cheating, and inciting insurrections don’t earn you a cloud and a harp.Then there’s Trump’s latest attack on Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, a highly respected Black woman economist, demanding her resignation after his housing henchman Bill Pulte accused her of mortgage fraud. No evidence, just vibes and racism.Let’s not forget that $355 million penalty Trump was ordered to pay for inflating property values like a busted balloon. But surprise—an Appeals Court voided it, because apparently penalties are for peasants, not self-declared kings.And just when you thought the circus couldn’t get any wilder, National Guard troops from Republican-led states are rolling into D.C. to enforce Trump’s fantasy takeover. Democracy is looking real shaky, y’all.Finally, Target’s CEO is stepping down, and we’ve got questions. Is it the backlash? The boycotts? Or just the realization that running a retail empire in racist clown world is exhausting?Frangela’s got the information and laughs you need to survive this week’s chaos.

This week on Something Ain’t Right, Frangela is back with the receipts, the rage, and the righteous laughter—because the nonsense is coming in hot.First up: a Minnesota teen says a restaurant server demanded she prove her gender in the bathroom. We don’t know what kind of twisted gender TSA this fool thought they were running, but we do know this—something ain’t right when your waffle comes with a side of discrimination.Then we unpack the cities offering thousands of dollars to lure remote workers to relocate. Is it a sweet deal or just a desperate attempt to turn your Zoom calls into local tax revenue? Either way, we’re watching folks try to gentrify with coupons.Next, we say goodbye to “gentle parenting” and hello to the new wave of “F—Around and Find Out” child-rearing. Because sometimes, the only thing between your toddler and a full-blown meltdown is a well-timed look that says, “Try me.”And finally, an economist crunched the numbers, stopped dating men, and found herself living her best life. The math is mathing, and apparently, it’s saying “men are a bad investment.”So grab your emotional support beverage and buckle up—Frangela’s breaking it all down so we can all survive this week’s parade of absurdity. Because when the world goes off the rails, Something Ain’t Right is here to call it out.Our Sponsors:* Check out Rosetta Stone and use my code TODAY for a great deal: https://www.rosettastone.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week on The Final Word, Frangela is serving up a piping hot plate of truth with a side of “what fresh hell is this?” as the Trumpocalypse rolls on. First up: those “Liberation Day” tariffs are hitting harder than a bad perm—Yale Budget Lab says we’re all about to cough up an extra $2,400 this year. Thanks, economic freedom!Meanwhile, Ambassador Pete Hoekstra dusts off his VHS of South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut and goes full “Blame Canada,” because apparently reality is just too spicy for the Trump administration. Over in census land, Trump wants to count people like he counts facts—selectively and incorrectly.Texas Democrats are on the run (literally), trying to stop a redistricting plan so racist it makes Jim Crow blush. The FBI’s now playing hide-and-seek with democracy. And in international “what now?” news, Netanyahu says Israel’s just gonna go ahead and occupy all of Gaza. Cool cool cool.Back home, Health Secretary RFK Jr. (aka Brain Worms) axes $500 million in mRNA vaccine funding, because science is scary and facts are rude. Oh, and the Library of Congress just casually deleted parts of the Constitution. No biggie—just the unlawful detention clause. Who needs rights anyway?But don’t worry, Gavin Newsom is here with the shade and the sass, dragging Trump like a pro. And finally, Laura Loomer and Marjorie Taylor Greene remind us why we can’t have nice things—by turning their MAGA meltdown into a street brawl.Grab your emotional support snacks, because Frangela’s got The Final Word on this week’s chaos carnival.ClipsU.S. ambassador says Canada is ‘pulling rug out’ from free trade agreement | Watch News Videos OnlineDo you want to hear more Idiots of the Week??

First up, we’re dialing into Trump’s latest obsession: the National Guard hotline. Why is the ex-president suddenly in love with camo-clad muscle, and what does it mean for D.C.? Spoiler: it’s more than just a flex.Next, we unpack his escalation of attacks on prominent Black Americans and the magical disappearing act of his free IVF promise—because ghosting a constitutional right is so 2025.Then, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth goes full backward-cam era by reposting a pastor’s “women shouldn’t vote” manifesto. We’ll have receipts, reactions, and the best takedown you’ll hear all week.Finally, in the daily war against the spider cabal, scientists have discovered tarantulas packing such extravagant genitalia that they’ve earned themselves a whole new genus. Yes, biology just got a little kinkier.Do you want to hear more Idiots of the Week??
