I feel like the next step for Trump after Gulf of America and Mt. McKinley is to start selling commemorative maps. Made in Mexico. I was going to say globes, but he wouldn't want to alienate the flat earthers

Perhaps Musk thinks that he can rescue his failing media platform by monetarizing Hate. Trump wrote the playbook.

Man I can't tell if I'm fearing your next episode, or wondering what the commentary will be.

Are we renaming New Mexico to New America?

Honest question here: no Amazon, so Walmart?! Okay, so I drop Prime. Cool. That road leads straight to Walmart, who also leans right and contributes to the Republican political machine. However, according to Forbes (see link above, the word "Walmart" is an active link) they are making progress on sustainability. That's something. I don't recall Walmart's CEO being present at the Inauguration. A lesser evil? Walmart App offers Paramount+, which I don't have, and that's a way to watch John Stewart. I am thinking about hopping on board for that reason alone. Okay, to those who are going to say, "Don't use either one, shop at the store." I live in the country, man! My kid needs a LEGO set for his birthday! I gotta get it somewhere. My using 200 miles of gas for a Ninjago set isn't helping the planet, either. Thanks!

Pulling out of WHO, and failing to publish the CDC's MMWR report for the first time in 70 years is not only dangerous - H5N1 flu is a monster, and is called "bird flu" for a reason - will also likely have an effect on egg prices. How?! Dead chickens. Dead chickens = higher egg prices at Wal-Mart. Thanks, you jackass!!

I have done it to comically mock a dickhead boss when he was leaving the room.

To get back to the 50s you have to repeal the 60s.

The sieg heil was never used by Romans but by Mussolini. After Mussolini, Hitler did it… universal symbol of fascism.

About your segment about Musk's nazi salute; Die Zeit didn't mince words. Their front page headline was "Ein Hitlergruß ist ein Hitlergruß ist ein Hitlergruß" (A Hitler salute is a Hitler salute is a Hitler salute) If someone thinks it wasn't a Hitler salute, let them do it at work and see what happens .
