    THE CALL IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE COUNTRY | Something Ain't Right

    This week on Something Ain’t Right, we’re asking the question that should’ve been screamed from the rooftops: Why are top Trump officials moving onto military bases like it’s Camp MAGA? Is this a relocation or a rehearsal for something we should be worried about? Then we dive into the Great Gatsby-themed party Trump threw on the eve of SNAP benefit cuts. Because nothing says “Let them eat cake” like flappers, foie gras, and 42 million Americans wondering how they’ll eat next week. Next up: That Hug. Did Eria Kirk just soft-launch JD Vance like he’s a new skincare line? We break down the body language, the optics, and the “I’m not saying it, but I’m saying it” energy. And finally, the Heritage Foundation—yes, that think tank—just defended an open Nazi. We’re not talking dog whistles anymore, we’re talking full-on bullhorns and tiki torches. Tune in, grab your pearls and your protest signs, because this week’s episode is giving: “The call is coming from inside the country.” This week on Something Ain’t Right, we’re asking the question that should’ve been screamed from the rooftops: Why are top Trump officials moving onto military bases like it’s Camp MAGA? Is this a relocation or a rehearsal for something we should be worried about?

    Farmers FA & FO

    This week on The Final Word, we’re asking the real question: How do you “find” $5.3 billion for troops but let 42 million Americans go hungry?  It’s giving “We support the troops, but not the people who feed them.” The Congressional Budget Office says the shutdown could cost us $14 billion in permanent economic damage if it drags through November. Meanwhile, SNAP benefits are set to lapse for the first time ever, and ACA premiums are jumping 26% next year. Translation: the government’s broke, but somehow still shopping at Gucci. Then Trump demands that Jack Smith and others be “investigated and put in prison.”  Sir, you’re not a judge—you’re just mad your mugshot didn’t get a People’s Choice Award. A Democratic congressional candidate in Illinois got indicted for allegedly impeding an ICE agent during a protest. We’re watching both the charges and the spin. And finally, farmers and lawmakers are holding their breath for the Trump-Xi meeting, hoping for a bailout. Because nothing says “America First” like begging China for a check. Tune in, grab your receipts, and clutch your constitution—because this week, the final word is: You can’t spell “shutdown” without “shady.” Become a Frangela patron at Patreon.com and get three exclusive Micro Idiot podcasts each week as our thank you for your support.

    East Wing Down, Troops on Layaway, and HBCU Side-Eyes

    This week on Something Ain’t Right, we’re serving up a hot plate of “What in the actual hell?” with a side of “You can’t make this up.” First up: billionaire Timothy Mellon gave the Pentagon $130 million to pay troops during the shutdown. Sir, are we crowdfunding the military now? Is this GoFundMe for guns? Then, a group declaring themselves to be “Black people for White supremacism” decided to roll up to an HBCU during homecoming. Spoiler: It’s giving “We brought the wrong energy to the cookout” and the cookout said “Try Jesus, not us.” Meanwhile, the White House East Wing is gone—demolished like common sense in a Trump press conference. What did we lose? Offices? History? Dignity? We investigate what’s missing and what’s being built in its place (hint: it rhymes with “bribe shack”). And finally, the Trump administration says it plans to “monitor” key elections in Democrat-led states. We call that “Big Brother but make it petty.” Because nothing says “free and fair” like a man who tried to overturn the last one showing up with binoculars and bad intentions. Tune in, grab your flannel, and clutch your Constitution—because this week, Something Ain’t Right, and we’re naming names with receipts.

    No Kings, Just Beef, Bribes & Ballrooms

    This week on The Final Word, the streets are speaking and the message is loud: No Kings. From Paris to Pittsburgh, citizens are mobilizing like it’s a global Beyoncé tour—but instead of glitter, it’s righteous rage and cardboard signs that slap. Then we get into the man Trump pardoned for his January 6th role—who allegedly turned around and threatened to kill House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries. So much for rehabilitation. It’s giving “I learned nothing” energy. Meanwhile, Trump wants the Justice Department to pay him $230 million for investigating him. Sir, you are not a contestant on Shark Tank. You don’t get reimbursed for being shady. In North Carolina, Republican lawmakers drew a new congressional map so crooked it needs a chiropractor. And in farm country, GOP senators are calling Trump’s plan to import Argentine beef a betrayal of “America First.” Spoiler: the cows are confused, and so are we. Also, the White House says there are “no plans” for Trump to meet Putin “in the immediate future.” Translation: they’re waiting for the right lighting and a fresh can of hairspray. And finally, the Treasury Department told staff not to share pics of the East Wing demolition or Trump’s new privately funded bribe shack/ballroom. Because nothing says transparency like “don’t post the evidence.” Tune in, flannel up, and get your side-eye ready—because this week, the final word is: We see you. And we brought receipts.

    No Kings, Just Chaos: From Kash to the Louvre

    This week on Something Ain’t Right, we ask the question nobody else will: What’s wrong with “No Kings”? Nothing—except it needs a movement, a soundtrack, and maybe a few indictments. We dive into David Brooks’ piece, America Needs a Mass Movement, and honey, we agree—but not the kind that comes with merch and a memo. Then we get into Kash Patel: Did he ruin the FBI, or just pull back the curtain on a mess that was already giving “deep state but make it petty”? Meanwhile, the U.S. is out here attacking Colombian rebel boats like it’s a Bond movie—right as Trump cuts aid. Coincidence? Or just another episode of Dictator Cosplay: Global Edition? And finally, we bring our investigative masterpiece The Mindful Thief to the Louvre heist. What went wrong? Who got played? And why does it feel like Ocean’s Eleven meets Oops, All Diamonds? Grab your crown, throw it in the trash, and tune in—because Something Ain’t Right, and we’re naming names. Do you want to hear more Idiots of the Week??

    Memos, Meltdowns & Magazine Covers: Democracy on the Ropes

    This week on The Final Word, Frangela is fired up and breaking down the latest episode of “What Fresh Hell Is This?” First, Trump signed a memo—yes, a memo—giving his administration expanded powers to repurpose unspent federal funds. We must’ve missed the part of the Constitution where laws get rewritten via sticky note. Then, as the government shutdown drags into its third week, Trump’s threatening to permanently cut more “Democrat programs.” Translation: if you need help, he’s not here for it. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court is out here sharpening its scissors to snip the last threads of the Voting Rights Act. Because apparently voting is just too democratic. Over at the Pentagon, they tried to roll out a fascistic press policy, and nearly every major news outlet said “nah.” When Fox News is giving side-eye, you know it’s bad. And in the “Sir, this is a Wendy’s” category, Trump is whining about his Time magazine cover photo. Because nothing says presidential like pouting over lighting and angles. Oh—and just to round out the horror show, the administration is floating changes to immigration policy that would favor white people. Yep. That’s not a dog whistle—it’s a foghorn. Frances and Angela are here to drag the madness, uplift the truth, and give you The Final Word on a week that proves democracy is hanging on by a thread—and that thread is rolling its eyes.

    Nobel Delusions, MTG’s Reality Tour, and the Experimenting with The End of the World | Something Ain't Right

    This week on Something Ain’t Right, Frangela is coming in HOT because the chaos is nonstop and the nonsense is next-level. First up—have y’all seen Trump lately? He’s mad about not getting the Nobel Peace Prize, posting after-midnight ramblings that look like a cry for help wrapped in a typo, and making mysterious trips to Walter Reed that got us side-eyeing harder than ever. The vibes? Off. The spelling? Worse. The concern? HIGH. Then, in a plot twist no one saw coming, Marjorie Taylor Greene just broke ranks with Trump’s GOP and decided she’s living on Earth One now. Yes, that MTG. We don’t know what timeline we’re in, but it’s giving glitch in the simulation. Meanwhile, a Rutgers professor targeted by MAGA says “someone” canceled his flight. We’re not saying it’s a conspiracy, but we’re also not not saying it’s a conspiracy. And just when you thought it couldn’t get wilder—scientists are out here proposing an experiment that could end all life. Or maybe it won’t. But they wanna try it anyway. Because apparently curiosity now comes with a side of existential dread. We are breaking it all down with the energy, the receipts, and the righteous rage you need to survive another week on this spinning ball of foolishness. Because when the Nobel’s missing, MTG’s lucid, and science is flirting with extinction... Something Ain’t Right.

    Insurrection, Shutdowns, and Birthday Brawls—Is This Real Life?

    First up, Trump “floated” invoking the Insurrection Act—because apparently court orders are just suggestions now. He wants to deploy the National Guard to Democratic cities like it’s a game of Risk, and Oregon Republicans are out here posting fake images to hype it up. Photoshop and foolishness, y’all. Then we check in with Attorney General Pam Bondi, who showed up to a Senate hearing and gave nothing but insults and sneers. No answers, no accountability—just full-on Real Housewives energy. Meanwhile, the Trump administration is planning to withhold back pay from furloughed federal workers after the shutdown ends. Because nothing says “thank you for working without pay” like... not paying them. And speaking of the shutdown, flight delays are stacking up nationwide. Air traffic controllers are short-staffed, unpaid, and still keeping planes in the sky while the government plays chicken with basic services. And just when you thought it couldn’t get more absurd—The White House is hosting a UFC fight for Trump’s 80th birthday. That’s right. A cage match. At the people’s house. We. Can’t. Even. Frances and Angela are here to laugh through the madness, drag the nonsense, and give you The Final Word on a week that proves once again: reality is broken, and we’re just living in it.
