I'm excited to get into it. There's just too much to cover. So with that, I just want to say, what's up, Midas Mighty? Can't wait to get in today's show. And Benji, where do you want to start us off?

It's just so bizarre to me that the MAGA base, it will never not be bizarre to me with the MAGA. I'm not even talking about the politicians out there. I'm talking about the diehard Trumpers. Dude wears orange makeup. I mean, just like, what's alpha about that? What's alpha, you know, Trump supporters, about kissing the feet of billionaire oligarchs?

These people wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire, and yet you're going to go to the grave defending them? They are the most anti-American, anti-democratic people to ever exist and to ever walk this country. What is it, Ben?

Jordan. Your job as a reporter, as a journalist, is not just to echo the MAGA and right-wing talking points. It's to get to the bottom of them and to make sure that what you're reporting and putting into the world is actually factual, not just whatever bullet statement that they want, that they, these MAGA Republicans, Mike Johnson, Elon Musk, Donald Trump, want you to just regurgitate.

It's a dangerous thing. I don't like bashing on the fourth estate. Absolutely not. Are you kidding? I need to defend it at all costs. But I'm just urging every single reporter out there, please just don't be a mouthpiece for this administration. When it comes to Elon Musk, he is an egomaniac, Brett. He does truly think that when he tweets, everybody sees it. All the federal employees,

everybody on earth, everybody in America. He thinks his tweets basically serve as law. You know, look no further than the five bullet points of what you did this week that he sent out last week that sent mass chaos throughout this country. You know, once you start ruling, dictating by... Twitter, it's a scary place to be.

I mean, just like the malignant narcissist in chief, Donald Trump, Elon Musk, who's actually the president. Sorry, Donald, you ain't. Elon's the one in control now, buddy. And they're just such babies, too, when it comes down to it. Because when you do call them out for it, Brett, and these reporters do a nice job, and they try to get to the bottom of it, all of a sudden, transparency...

Not a thing. They don't want to be as transparent with you, Brett. When they're in charge, Elon Musk is in charge. He wants to fudge the numbers. And if you start to question his numbers, you're fake news. Uh-uh. That's fake news. Just like when it comes to comedy, right? When you start making fun of these people, what do they say? Oh, that's not funny. That's mean. That's hurtful.
