Flying the Furry Skies, ChampAIgne Is Flowing, & Guest Allie Wheelz On this episode of Red State Update, Jackie and Dunlap welcome Allie Wheelz to talk about her months-long fight for home care, the Olmstead Act, and what it's like to have to constantly prove you're disabled. Plus: Tommy Tuberville's furry-pilot panic, gas prices, the Iran war, ICE, and a helluva long list of Republican problems heading into the midterms, President Xi's red-carpet get-your-ass-kissed-by-Trump visit, and a Halloween warning about chupacabras. Look at all this mess: America's dumbest Tommy, Tommy Tuberville, worries about furries flyin planes. Hilarious! And then he talks about forced institutionalization for trans folks. Not so funny anymore! Republicans have to run on fear since they can't run on gas prices, inlation, Iran, anything real, so they got to make stuff up to scare us. ICE and Stephen Miller: shootings, citizens killed, legal residents rounded up, all cause of this one gross sick dude. The real freaks and weirdos and pervs are in the Oval Office, not behind the beverage cart. Ranchers and farmers struggling because workers are too afraid to show up. The state of health care sucks: Medicaid and health care cuts coming after the midterms. Women dying under abortion bans in red states. Americans battle high prices and financial pressure and job insecurity due to AI while Dan Scavino posts an AI ad of White House Buddies rollin' around sprayin' champagne over the goldest room there is. Hegseth and the Pentagon hiding casualty and injury numbers of service members from the Iran War. Crazy numbers of attempted su**ide. How is Pete Hegseth still in charge? Bo French, Texas Railroad Commissioner candidate, is so racist he got mad at a photo of a University of Texas football crowd. If you're so racist you're mad at football, you're too racist. Trump's net worth is reportedly around $7 billion, triple what it was two years ago. His gross family is cashing in too. One of many Trump corrupt schemes? Pay-for-pardons! The DOJ took down the list of Trump's pardons. Maybe they're afraid people are starting to pay attention? If AI takes your job, maybe you can get into the burgeoning pardon broke field. Major League Baseball wants to build a stadium in Grand Teton National Park. This is something nobody wants except rich people. Maybe you could get away with this horse hockey when gas wasn't six bucks. Tax-payer money paying for ads praising Trump. He ain't even running! Imagine if Obabma put up an add with Love Me Love Me in the background. Jackie wants to take his taxes and make his own anti-Trump ads. Ain't we already doin that every week for free? Facebook MAGA meme accounts claim oil companies are keeping gas prices high to sabotage Trump before the midterms. Yes, Trump's famous arch-enemies the oil companies. Trump is rolling back all the Biden-era fuel regulations and going after electric cars! Interview: Allie Wheelz Ali is a disability advocate and content creator who joins Jackie and Dunlap to talk about her personal battles against care-cutting algorithms and out-of-touch committees of money-grubbing ghouls rushing to make budget cuts against the most vulnerable. She also describes the coming cataclysmic Olmstead Act changes, and how Texas is already leading the anti-autonomy charge. Plus Project 2025, growing up disabled before the ADA, constantly proving your disability before your funding is cut off, and bee tattoos.
