Starting point is 00:00:00 welcome everyone it's seeking derangements this week this is going to be a paid episode because we are doing our talk radio you know a little special episode and that can only live behind the Patreon so if you're hearing this in the free feed go to our WF-A-G The only station. Radio F-A-G-G. No, it has to start with the W.
Starting point is 00:00:36 Right, sorry. Radio rule. Yeah, welcome, everyone. Today we're going to be just, you know, throwing out some of the topics. Trump, we're redoing the White House or on stealing table in college. Galane, now in prison with Elizabeth Holmes
Starting point is 00:00:51 and Jen Shaw, which should be fun. And a few ethicist queries and will Vicky has an AI. We've got a lot today, but yeah. I was thinking if we can start with Trump redoing the White House. Have you seen his renovations? He's such a fact in it. No, what are his renovations?
Starting point is 00:01:08 He's adding like a $200 million ballroom to like the side of the White House. Oh, I did see. I saw like a rendering of that, but I really thought it was a joke. That's real. I hope I'm not falling. And it's like an Albert Spiel. It's like an Albert Spears like new classical.
Starting point is 00:01:27 Yes, it looks so bad, but I kind of love that he's just completely destroying any kind of, like, I don't know, truly patriotic, like, American aesthetic. And she's just making, he's just making it like a McMansion. He paved over the Rose Garden. Did he really? He paved over the Rose Garden. I mean, he put, like, marble slabs down. It's not, like, so parking lot, but he paved over the Rose Garden because two, you know, many of his hoochie mama guests
Starting point is 00:01:59 couldn't walk around in their high heels on the grass. So he was like, we need to make it flat for the women so they can walk. President Trump relish his new, very white paved over his car. I really love that he's just completely trash in the place and making it so
Starting point is 00:02:17 gaudy. Yeah, he's like literally, he's going to in two years, that's going to be a parking lot and there's going to be a casino inside the White House. No, I know. I know. I know. And he famously hates the White House. Like, in 2016, he was trashing it for being, like, old and decrepit. Which I've heard it actually is kind of busted.
Starting point is 00:02:35 I mean, it's an old-ass building, you know? Yeah. And I feel like the, like, regulations on it, like, fixing up are probably, like, insanely tight. Also, I read Melania's memoir, and she was... Oh, her celebrity book clubbed. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I probably wouldn't have read it otherwise, because it does absolutely suck. going to so chat GPT but
Starting point is 00:02:59 she was talking about how when she was doing the renovations oh also I forgot to say Jack is we'll be joining us guys so don't worry yeah yeah of course in tradition as his tradition he's late right but she was talking about how no construction
Starting point is 00:03:15 could happen while Donald was in the White House or like in whatever room they were working on if he walked in or walked by or was nearby they had to stop due to like safety precautions or whatever due to vampire law Something about a vampire law. Like, until the room is finished and someone can invite him into it, he can't step into the room.
Starting point is 00:03:34 Yes. Yeah, so Trump estimated that taking down the East Wing and putting the ballroom in place would cost about $200 million. The East Wing was completed in 1942 under Franklin Lee Roosevelt's administration, according to White House historians. Elsewhere on the grounds, he has put in a pair of towering flagpoles and paved over a grassy patch of the Rose Garden. wet grass poses problems for women in high heels walking around the garden he said I was always a great real estate developer
Starting point is 00:04:04 I know how to do that I know how to pave the ground I know how to put pavement on the ground pavement on the ground I'm the guy to come to I'm telling you he is so tacky he has a vision to make the White House as exceptional and beautiful as possible for future presidents
Starting point is 00:04:21 and administrations he's very hands-on and involved in all of this of course this is the only thing he probably likes doing as the president it's just like yeah like of course he does I mean did you see he got the jobs numbers back
Starting point is 00:04:37 and then instantly fired the guy who gave them to him what a fucking mess dude it is just like I mean we deserve this as a country you know yeah unfortunately we really do deserve this
Starting point is 00:04:53 and I love that he is just again I love that he's trashing the White House. I mean, to be clear, you and I don't deserve this. We are, oh my God, wait, I just clicked on a CNN link that said, Laura Lumer has the White House scrambling again. Oh, yeah, I was just at the gym and I saw Trump, Trump, Kiron that, and he was like, I love Laura Lumer.
Starting point is 00:05:15 He said something like that. And, wait, the funniest ad is on. What did she do? No, I can't even read it because obviously it's paywalled because everything has to be paywalled, even for a free news website, like CNN. But there's an ad with a clearly AI-generated woman staring at you, and it says, disappear for one month. And then the subheading is,
Starting point is 00:05:38 and become a master of AI tools. There's probably also a secondary, like, bar to entry on that article, because Laura Lumer's face is like, you have to be above 18 to see something that's scary. yeah absolutely Donald Trump is called because we're through the Laura Lomar a very nice person as she wages a personal war
Starting point is 00:06:01 to clean house in the Trump administration the far right Trump mega fan has taken it's so funny they're calling her a mega fan because I don't think yeah that's what she is yeah that's just what she is she's literally just a fucking weird group just a crony
Starting point is 00:06:16 the far right Trump she's a loomers she's looming in the background no literally okay has taken credit for the fires of at least 16 people who she said were not sufficiently loyal to the president she calls it being quote unquote loomered that's so funny i like i'm i'm reading a book about um about like demetri shostikovitch like writing the seventh symphony in uh and and like it happening during Stalin's reign and the invasion of leningrad and like the the way that like Trump and solid are very like just being like yeah anyone who like
Starting point is 00:07:01 if you have a picture of Obama in your house you are like eligible to be dragged away and put in like a camp basically it's just it's so funny to that Laura Loomer has has loomed her way into this position where she's just she gets to fire up for Trump now which is maybe one of the best positions to be in in the Trump administration because it's maybe the only stable job. No, it's just like anyone who pisses him off or does what he asks and then he doesn't like
Starting point is 00:07:33 the results. It's just like can't. I mean, I feel like it's not even a job. It's like she's volunteering. She's like I don't think she's being paid. She's a mega fan. She's definitely not being paid. She would pay Trump to do this for sure. Yeah, yeah. She's like it's like being a groupie for white snake or something. Like, you can, you can hang out
Starting point is 00:07:52 with them and, like, you get to suck their dicks every once. Not that she's sucking Trump's dick, because I still don't believe that happened. No, she is, she's not his type. She's not his type. I mean, I think you were singing a different tune when this happened, when that news broke, but yeah. I will
Starting point is 00:08:09 all, I'll rectify by period of statements. I do not think that Laura Lumer is Trump's type. I think Trump respects Laura Lumer the way like Hunter would respect, like, a hunting dog, you know? It's like, oh, she's really good
Starting point is 00:08:24 at what she does. You know, that's about it. I don't think there's any kind of no impropriety there. Exactly. But the article continues. So far, her body count includes assistant federal prosecutor, Maureen Comey,
Starting point is 00:08:38 National Security Agency directors, Timothy Hahn, Wendy Noble, Trump's national security advisor, Mike Walts, and Jen Eastern Lee, who led the cybersecurity and infrastructure security agency under President Biden. I mean, I have no idea who these people are.
Starting point is 00:08:50 Well, R, and I really doubt Lumer even knows, she's just, she's just doing whatever Trump wants us to. That is so funny. Yeah, I, I hate that bitch. Can I, can I do it this time? Wait, can I, wait, no, fuck. I'm so sorry, that's a, get him, get the diva. Welcome to work, diva. I hate when y'all say that.
Starting point is 00:09:09 I'm signing a petition. Do you want to start with the first song? Y'all go first. Y'all give a song. I want to wrap up quickly on Trump's, on the Trump's White House thing, though. because it is so funny. Jock, we were talking about how Trump is redoing the White House. Another White House official, also speaking on the condition of anonymity, added,
Starting point is 00:09:30 the president is very directly involved, even more so than the first lady, which I really doubt Melania is doing anything this time around. Yeah. Can I ask a question really quickly? Why hasn't he installed a McDonald's inside of the facilities? We're genuinely, we're on that route, Jack. We really are on that route. And I mean, also, the funny, another.
Starting point is 00:09:50 funny thing is that this this opens up the opportunity because as as everyone knows Washington DC is on a swamp literally an actual swam like much like that's a real thing yeah I mean much like Manhattan or you know is that what they're talking about when they say drain the swamp um yes no yes they are but um which opens up the uh the possible that this renovation will start slowly sinking into the ground like the romanian like the romanian royal palace i'm like i mean it is so just like late stage empire you know yeah adding all of these gody just like ballrooms and paving over the the rose garden it is it just it feels right you know it kind there's so many things that happen now that i'm just like what the fuck is going on
Starting point is 00:10:50 Nothing really makes sense. Everything just like serves like further disorient you from any kind of platonic sense of reality. But I'm like, thank God Trump is doing this because it just, it makes me feel like I am in a world which I can like accurately conceive like power and machinations of power. It's just Trump just wants a giant party room. Yeah, and I'm like, thank God. He's getting ready for the ultimate party. I think I want to say I think he's going to install a. all Israeli-funded food court.
Starting point is 00:11:23 It's going to be Starbucks McDonald's. It's going to have a Paul Mitchell, aveda salon. Right. There's going to... He will definitely do a BDS wing. Yes. There will be a Soda Stream sponsorship involved, major IDF money pooler.
Starting point is 00:11:41 I mean, I guarantee a lot of this stuff will come with sponsorships. I would not be shocked if he had any of his, like, sons foundations or like black rifle coffee build the auxiliary ballroom that's like yeah what is the white house what is black ivory coffee what do you think what do you think it is what do you think it is i thought it was code for some i really thought it was code i really didn't i thought it was like so it's called black rifle coffee company it's a black it's a black owned business it's a black owned business. Yeah, it's a Republican, a black Republican owned business.
Starting point is 00:12:21 Yes. Anyways. Speaking of, I do need to make a really quick announcement because it has come up and I forgot to include it. Speaking of black owned businesses. Speaking of Republicans, it was recently announced last night that as due a recent report
Starting point is 00:12:37 that Sidney Sweeney has been registered as a Republican since 2024. Yeah, I don't really care about that. I don't give a fuck, dude. Shocking news. I don't give a fuck. I was shocked when I found out that Sweeney Todd was a registered Republican after all those little...
Starting point is 00:12:52 It doesn't, yeah, it doesn't shock me in. I also don't care. I mean, there's so much cultural war stuff that I will engage with, but this one is just extremely boring and stupid to me. Yeah, I mean, the idea, like, I don't think she's, like, actually...
Starting point is 00:13:08 Like, honestly... She's just a dumbass. Like, most Republicans, like, most, like, blonde, hot women from, like, Utah, wherever the fuck. she's just a Republican because her parents are and I really doubt she has any sense of the world or power or you know principle and she's just she's obsessed with being a hot rich actress and I yeah I don't need anything more from Sydney Sweetie than that like I don't care my my dad
Starting point is 00:13:33 I'm I don't know I think my dad probably voted a Republican and like uh you know governor elections in New York or whatever and I'm like I don't I don't really fucking like it's not like he well i guess it's kind of evil to do that but like i'm like you know what can you i mean they're individual people also i mean like your dad is not a public person he's like your father you can like have that conversation with him whatever but maybe we cut that part i don't want to say that it's fine it's fine we can talk out no one is gonna no one is gonna look i vote republican i voted for trump i voted for judge me bush that's true i voted for desantis i used an absentee ballot. I wrote in DeSantis.
Starting point is 00:14:15 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, I don't think she voted DeSantis. Like, that's like... I don't think she fucking votes, dude. I don't know. I really don't think she fucking... Yeah. It also just does not matter to me. I think it's just so funny that people are so desperate to, like, cling
Starting point is 00:14:32 her to some kind of, like, they just want to make her evil. I mean, I get why people are mad about. I get why people are mad about it. Like, we... But she's just such a... The country is, like, the coming fascist. For sure. And I think the only reason the reason why people are like curtailing, like, just like driving full speed off the road into these culture war issues because they don't have other outlets to feel like they have power. Like they can't do anything.
Starting point is 00:14:57 They can't vote people out. The Democrats are completely and totally just what a waste. Yeah. And there is no route to challenge power. So you just see people doing the one thing they think they can do, which is yell at City Sweeney for having like Nazi boobs and a Republican. public father and I'm like yeah Nazi boots she's more like Nazi boots right it's it's I get what people are that well I meant boots like you know when angel money says like I know I was joking the Trump renovations I think will also probably like take 20 years I don't know because
Starting point is 00:15:39 they do have so many strict rules on like constructing things at the White House but we'll see anyways let's get to our first song we can do songs of the summers we can just do songs that we like I don't really care we don't need to have a theme yeah who wants to go first
Starting point is 00:15:56 I could go first okay I would request that my first or my poison girl song be the last track on the thing because if you go last I just want one of my songs to go last
Starting point is 00:16:12 please so you all go last that's how that works so yeah yeah yeah okay my first song um i am stealing both of my songs from as as you
