Hello, the internet, and welcome to this episode of Trendsgiving Week. My name is Jack O'Brien. that over there is Miles Gray. Yeah. Yeah. My stomach stretching exercises. Yeah. You know, have a Christmas time, in it.

That one was courtesy of new Chris. Oh. What are your stomach stretching exercises? I don't know. I just say that. I'm just, I just know. Upward dog, whatever. Which everyone that one is.

Kind of like how David Blaine talks about like just holding your breath for long periods. We should try and do some of that. Just I'm going to eat mostly. mashed potatoes, I think, this year. I love potatoes so much. I'm doing a recipe that's one pound of butter per three pounds of potato. Mm-hmm. And that is correct.

They're luxurious. I encourage people, look, you're probably like, I should, I feel bad putting in a stick. Put in a fucking pound, okay? Put in a fucking stick. There you go. Yeah, I went to Ralph's yesterday and got my, so I have this old recipe for sweet potato crunch, which is my mom's famous Thanksgiving side. but like all the things are um it's like from the 70 so it's like instead of asking for butter it

asked for margarine oh yeah it's like everything it's just yeah made by a man in a factory downtown yeah you can't get the ingredients at a whole foods or something like that you need to go oh no no yeah you need to go to ralph you need to get just the very basic I make casseroles a lot and I live near like a healthier grocery store yeah but like and her mad she's like oh my make that cash. I'm like, I can't get the shit there. I need garbage canned fuel. It calls for a can of Coke as one of the things that bonds the food together. Rather than water. Yeah. One can of tab and a cigarette butt. My name is Jack O'Brien. That ever there is Miles Gray. This is the episode where we tell you what is trending on this Tuesday, November 25th. We got some new data on ice, the American Gestalt. and how all that's working out.

Yeah. I mean, I think since the beginning of us even hearing about data about who was actually being kidnapped by ICE, it was always like around at minimum 70% of the people had no criminal record or no criminal conviction of any kind. And just now the Libertarian Cato Institute just got their hands on arrest. Hey, I'm wondering if they're like, I'm curious what their angle is because they're like, this is, this is, this is, bad. I wonder if they're like, because we need more money for like the local cops. Let's not keep our half to, like, let's not give everything to

ice. But anyway, they have found... They hate the government period, right? Like this is... I feel like Rand Paul has been kind of on the right side of a lot of this fascist takeover shit. Yeah, just because it's such big government that he's like, ah, I mean, I'm backwards, but right, the big government thing

is like the one thing I try to be ideologically consistent on. I should be able to shoot a poor person in the street. Yeah. That's kind of my thing. Without your day. Gestapo coming through. Just, like, had a really bad hall monitor when he was a kid and just, like, can't get past it. Forever scarred from that.

I have a bathroom pass. No, you don't rant. Oh, God. Now I'm pissing here. Look what you made me do. God, damn it. Now I'm a libertarian. So, anyway, the Cato Institute got their hands on some sweet, sweet, privately held data was not made public.

And they found, since October 1st, 73% of people, People booked into ICE custody had no criminal conviction. Just 5% of these people had a violent conviction. So that means like the other stuff were like immigration offenses, like illegal entry or reentry. They got as many of those people on that offense as they did for violent crime. So not the worst of the worst. In fact, the law-abiding people that are here. 95% is just not.

who you're looking for and they're just being like small price to pay to terrorize people of color in the community very small price but their whole rhetoric has been oh man we're getting the fucking decapitators of earth the guys who are who are buffing fentanyl into your elementary schools the absolute demons and wow they boof it into the elementary school yeah don't ask how don't ask how folks so they suck it up through their asses don't ask how folks somehow that goes into the elementary school I don't know how it works, folks. Up the ass through the mouth into the elementary schools. These people are sick, folks.

That's all I know. That's all I know. But like when you look at the bar graph of the actual or like pie chart, it's like there. Give me, I'm a USA today reader. So either give me a bar graph or give me a pie chart. I'll give you a pie chart right here. Make sure it's colored, please. Yeah, don't worry.

It is. Like in newly integrated school, my man, this shit is colored. It's no conviction, 73%. traffic violations there are more people for traffic violations than fucking violent crime and the others were like property like just fucking nonsense

damn but I forgot they did release other data ICE actually did release some new data publicly and puppy snuffer gnomes band of merry losers it turns out they've got their backs against the watch

she posted this over the past 10 months Democrat politicians have compared ICE to Nazis, the Gestapo, and slave patrols. Yeah, okay, yeah, I agree. Fueling an 1,153% increase in assaults from January 21st, 2025 through November 21st, 2025. There have been 238 reported assaults against ICE law enforcement. There was only 19 during this same period last year. When it was not a thing that was invading American cities and pointing guns at people.

Yeah, and we should be clear in what. even consider assault. It's things like people saying like, get your fucking hands off me or like, who the fuck are you? Assault. Yeah. I've also read, I was going through the data set and the tabs and they also do count children giving them a thumbs down

as a salt. Is that real? I don't know. I feel like it would be. I'm not even looking and I'm going to presume that they're like, yeah, let's count that. We'll count that. We'll count that. They are wildly undertrained to do what they're doing. but the one thing they do seem to have training in

is like Euroleague players when they get like touched and then like fall to the ground to be like, I've been assaulted. Yep, yep, yep. You know? Looking like they're doing the high jump, just full arched back. Well, speaking of other consequences

of sending a bunch of armed, untrained people into American cities and communities without, any training or justification other than like round up people who look like they might be from another country or not even that

just like you know make people scared to not be white. Honestly it's up to the, it feels like it's up to the ice age. Yeah. I have the beholder. Yeah, exactly. They you know, one of the reasons that we thought this might be a bad

idea and we're just we're just calling balls and strikes here but one of the things that seemed weird is that they all wear masks. And so you don't know who they are. And they also don't show identification and there's no clear way to identify who's who. And therefore, they're just like making it really easy for anybody who wants to. Claim ice, yeah. To have power over someone to just come through and be like, yeah, I'm ice, man.

You get in the back of my car. It's actually, they're doing it the way how they think Antifa works. Yes. You know what I mean? Or they're like, these people just claim it. Antifa man and like they're doing stuff like no no the people who just claim anyway so ice like we said it's happened again another fucking guy pretends to be ice um this time in texas where a guy who works at a mega church as a safety director that must be dangerous work yeah yeah decided he didn't

want to fucking pay at a massage parlor i mean think about what he has to put up with like being a safety director at a mega church all the people falling out when they like get touched by the Lord and, like, have to fall over backwards, you know? Yeah, I don't even know if they're, I don't even know if they're catching the spirit at this one. It might be just one of those very vanilla ones where they're like, Lord, I lift your name on high. Thank God we're all white. And then they go home or go to Caros or wherever they go to have fucking breakfast after. Well, he's a safety director then there might be, you know, a lot of times they have people flying on ropes.

They're trying to do like Spider-Man turn off the dark type shit. Oh, sure, sure, sure. Maybe he's involved in that. Probably he's just like somebody who holds a gun at the entrance and is like nobody's getting in here to persecute Christians like they did. Your tithings are inadequate. So here's, I'm just going to play this local news clip. So you can just hear how this story unfolds where a guy goes massage parlor.

What do you mean you don't take credit card? And this is how he resolves it. Investigators say Doolittle had booked and received a massage from the victim. The problems arose when Doolittle went to pay. He wanted to use a credit guard, but the victim told him she only accepted cash or Zell payments. And at that point, she said he pulled out an ID card labeled ICE. Now you're hearing the judge talking to him at his arraignment. Now they said that you pulled out an ID card that said it was ICE.

He was an ICE agent who needs to see her ID. Police say the victim complied, showing him her temporary visa, but that apparently wasn't enough because they say Doolittle went on to insist. She also sent him money. He said he demanded she zelt him $500, or he would take her away, and she would never see her family or children again. Now, the guy who did this is standing there looks exactly like you probably are picturing the security director to Texas Megachurch. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. The orange is doing him no favors. Not a power color.

Hands behind his back and just, like, shifting his weight from one side to another, like a kid who's, like, in trouble and also has to pee a little bit. Yep. So just the other story straight, he goes to pay. Yeah. The massage person says, I don't take credit card, cash or zeal. He says, well, I don't got it. I'm ice.

Let me see your visa. And she goes, here it is. It goes, you know what? Actually, you need to pay me. $500 or else I'm going to ice you up. And she's like, how do you want me to pay? Zell? What the fuck?

This guy demanded $500. He just, I think because all the point being was he was never going to pay. I think he went in there and he's like, this is how I'm going to get a free fucking whatever happened in there. He has a fake card made up that, I mean, like, how well-worned was that thing? How many times does he use that? It was like, frightening people. Yeah, yeah.

She's like, hold on. This looks like a. Aerio 51 All Access Pass. Yeah, yeah, I just kind of scratch out whatever I needed for. I got it at a gift store. It's pretty cool, though, right? That'll make stuff like this. Yeah, it's not, again, I think predictable.

And this is what happens when you have people who are just so willing to exploit people's fear around these kidnappings to go fucking to a massage parlor and be like, I'm not paying. I'm ice. There are bad people out there, which is why you can't just. have masked people who don't identify themselves, keeping people under the authority of the government. Weird that people doing bad stuff for claiming ICE, even like in, and they're not.

But hey, it's the violent Democrat rhetoric around it that's giving everyone a bad rap. All right, let's take a break from ICE to give a update on what it's like to be seduced by RFK Jr. Ryan Lizza, who was the fiancé of Olivia Nuzzi and got kind of,

publicly cooked by RFK Jr. made a post on his substack where he was like describing the process of like finding out that she was having an affair. But the twist ending was and I saw the name on the thing, Mark Samford.

This was 2020. So he was like, I got I got cheated on by both Mark Samford and R.K. Jr. So nothing like Ryan Lizza spurned. He's also dropping some of the The romantic poems he discovered sent by RFK Jr. 71 to his fiancé, Olivia Nuzzi, 32.

I just want to read from this because hold on to your butts, guys. I am put a towel down. I mean to squeeze your cheeks to force open your mouth. God damn. What the fuck. I am a river. You are my canyon. I mean to flow through you.

I mean to subdue and tame you. My love. Oh. So, yeah. I get it, guys. Oh, wow. What a fucking, God, I can hear it with the same intensity of RFK just screaming that at you. Squeeze your cheeks to force open your mouth is like, I'm picturing the part in Goonies where the, yeah, that's like, thing you're doing your.

Two-Hander. Well, there's a part in Goonies where the chunk has hidden the jewels in his mouth. Yep. And the Fetelli's, like, squeeze the sides of his cheeks and then, like, his mouth was forced open. And it always bothered me because I was like, dude, I would just bite down my teeth. But, like, when they do it, the gems just, like, start falling out of his mouth. Yeah. Yeah, just like, so this for you just evoked the Goonies and you're like, this isn't hot, bro.

This is Goonies. I mean, well, I thought it was really hot, actually. I've always wanted Anne Ramsey, the actress from Goonies. to squeeze my cheeks and flow through me like water. Yeah, flow through, I am a river, you are my canyon. And hey, guess what? Cheryl, she ain't going nowhere, baby, so don't worry about her. I know.

Loyal. Loyal. The new book from Olivia Nosey, which is about to drop, was, I think people are like that this is probably what caused this Ryan Lizza post. And the podcast Chappo Trap House was reading a, excerpt of it and it's just like overwritten turgid literary

like over literary garbage where she just taking herself too seriously the politician eyes blue blue of flame like it's just like fuck this you know the blue flame is unnatural yeah that's bad that's like natural

like natural gas which we should invest more in but it's you look at RFK is his I wouldn't say his eyes are. He's striking. His eyes look like they're being eaten by his skull. Dude, he.

By the worm and his brain. It looks like a night walker putting on makeup to try and pretend he's fucking, he's like with the shit like everybody. They're like, bro, are you dead? Oh, man, I'm fucking chill like everybody. What's your fucking haunted ass eyes? She has a type, which is failed Republican presidential candidates, apparently. Mark Sanford, too, of all of us.

Mark Samford. such a he's always been in some weird ass like he had a South Carolina politician who like went missing for a little while and he was like on a hike with his mistress and I forget where and then he said I remember he called he was talking about he was at his friend's house but he's like we called it Jurassic Park it was the weird I remember that being the dumbest explanation because he said he said the reason I couldn't be reached for a week and my wife reported me missing was because I was at my friend's house. We called it Jurassic Park. He would know, he was saying like about a guy he was with. This is just, I have this part. He says, I want to apologize to my good friends. Tom Davis came over to the house.

He drove up from Beaufort. And he has been an incredibly dear friend of mine for a long time. My first governor is he moved up and he lived in the basement of our house for six months. We called it Jurassic Park because it was the kids dinosaur sheets and all kinds of different folks were living there in the campaign. And then he just like, kind of me like I just remember in this meandering apology he was like yeah do my friend we

caught a Jurassic Park and we're like dude what are you you went missing and you're cheating you're the governor right what is this anyways so that's information you probably didn't want to hear but just so you know little seduction lesson from RFK Jr. I think it's better people hear that so they're protected against it when they have a chance encounter with RFK and he says he wants to squeeze their cheeks to make their mouth open. Fuck, he says this to everyone. He just has the same line. You say that to all the journalists. Let's take a quick break. We'll be right back. Hi, Kyle. Could you draw up a quick document with the basic business plan? Just one page as a Google doc and send me the link. Thanks. Hey, just finished drawing up that quick one page business plan for you.

Here's the link. But there was no link. There was no business plan. It's not his fault. I hadn't programmed Kyle to be able to do that yet. My name is Evan Ratliff. I decided to create Kyle, my AI co-founder, after hearing a lot of stuff like this from OpenAI CEO Sam Aldman. There's this betting pool for the first year that there's a one-person, billion-dollar company, which would have been like unimaginable without AI and now will happen. I got to thinking, could I be that one person?

I'd made AI agents before for my award-winning podcast, Shell Game. This season on Shell Game, I'm trying to build a real company with a real product, run by fake people. Oh, hey, Evan. Good to have you join us. I found some really interesting data on adoption rates for AI agents and small to medium businesses.

A decade ago, I was on the trail of one of the country's most elusive serial killers, but it wasn't until 2023 when he was finally caught. The answers were there, hidden in plain sight. So why did it take so long to catch him? I'm Josh Zeman, and this is Monster, hunting the Long Island serial killer,

All I know is what I've been told, and that's a half-truth is a whole lie. For almost a decade, the murder of an 18-year-old girl from a small. town in Graves County, Kentucky went unsolved, until a local homemaker, a journalist, and a handful of girls came forward with a story. I'm telling you, we know Quincy Kilder, we know. A story that law enforcement used to convict six people, and that got the citizen investigator

on national TV. Through sheer persistence and nerve, this Kentucky housewife helped give justice to Jessica occur. My name is Maggie Freeling. I'm a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, producer, and I wouldn't be here if the truth were that easy to find. I did not know her and I did not kill her, or rape or burn or any of that other stuff that y'all said. They literally made me say that I took a match and struck and threw it on her. They made me say that I poured gas on her. From Lava for Good, this is Graves County, a show about just how far our legal system will go in order to find someone to blame.

as part of my culture podcast network available on the iHeart radio app apple podcast or wherever you get your podcast and we're back oh we're back we're back um a little word of wisdom for people traveling this week you're you're driving but you're not uh flying anymore i'm driving yeah yeah we we're we're We're driving. We're driving. We're going up north to the bay to see, you know, I've got to get the guy's child with his cousins because that's always. It's actually free child care. You just get into the older kids? Dude, you got four kids. My oldest niece just turned 13. My nephew's 12. He's about to be 13. The kids next level down are like nine. Bro, those ratios with one kid who's not, well, my God, they treat them like fucking like Groku. It's amazing. I'm like, yeah, bro, y'all do whatever the fuck y'all want to do. Just I don't want to hear any screaming or crying. And they're great.

Anyway, so yeah, Thanksgiving. Are you saying, are you in town? We're just doing a little friends thing. Yeah, we're hosting. Okay. Got a family, my seven-year-old's best friend and his family coming over. Okay. Who's cooking the bird?

We're ordering a bird. All right. Yeah, I'm cooking the bird. You're cooking the bird? I'm going up. I'm cooking the bird. Yeah, dry brined. It's my sister-in-law.

Yeah, that's what I call her. My sister-in-law, she's dry-briining it starting today. Nice. Yeah. I feel like the best turkeys I've ever had were either dry brined or like, you know, fully brined. Yeah, I'm going to make, I'm thinking for Christmas, I'm going to make the Salvadoran Christmas turkey that Marcella was talking about,

where you just fucking ladle the tomato sauce over and over and over again. Yeah. Anyway, well, that's not what we're talking about. We're talking about you guys. Y'all traveling and y'all dressing like pieces of absolute scummy shit when you get on an airplane to the point that the F.A. fucking Sean Duffy, the travel secretary. Oh, wait. No, never mind.

He's Sean Dofé. Dofé. He's out here at Newark, Interfa. International Airport. Okay, shout out EWR. I know the three letter code. Basically saying like there's been a 400% uptick in in flight disturbances. They're saying people haven't acted this bad since 2019. So again, with the holidays coming around, please be nice. I think this is a good opportunity for take the focus off of him and, you know, maybe his lack of apology for air traffic controllers and TSA people who are not paid through the shutdown and had to eat. shit and grin through it all. When he should be doing that, I think he's like, I'm actually going to, the focus should be on the passengers. Y'all are the ones fucking up.

So here he is. He's focusing on the clothes people wear? He's been, it's so weird. He's doing like a respectability politics. Like, y'all need to dress better. If you dress better, you act better. But he's really, he's really, he's really coming after, I feel he's a full frontal attack for how I like to dress on an airplane.

But here he is just going through. this, I don't know, he sounds like such a dorky school principal. We have to think about how do we do a better job? How do we, you know, maintain maybe some of that frustration we have as we travel this Thanksgiving season? Maybe we should say, please and thank you to our pilots. Oh, that's good. To our flight attendants.

I think, again, I call this just maybe dressing with some respect. You know, whether it's a pair of jeans and a decent shirt, I would encourage people to maybe dress a little better, which encourages us to maybe behave all a little better. Let's try not to wear slippers and pajamas as we come to the airport. What? I think that's positive. What the fuck is this guy? Who the fuck are you, bro?

We're past, like that is over. That battle has been lost. People just wear pajamas flying. Dude, if you wear a jeans and a nice shirt, I'm like, this guy is going to fucking bring the plane down. Why is he dressed like this? Why is he dressed like he ready to meet God later? I don't want this.

You should be dressed like absolutely. That's the fun because you're getting nickel and dimed art. He's like, oh, you got a backpack? That's 52 extra dollars. Yeah. What? Just be comfortable. Just go on.

I think it's nice to be polite to the flight staff. Oh, absolutely. Yeah, that's a good idea. But don't go from that to be like and stop dressing like fucking slabs. Do you hear me? He kept going on. He's like, don't worry your, don't take your, this one I kind of did. agree with it. He's like, don't take your slippers

off and then put them all over the seat, like the arm rest of the front. I'm like, okay, well, I mean, like, yeah. People take their slippers off and put them all over the place? I think he's saying like, your bare feet. Don't put your, don't take your slippers off. Yeah, yeah, don't have, don't have bare feet up. Just generally, that's, I agree with that.

But I think generally he's just trying to just say, because this is going to be the busiest travel seasons for 15 years. He's just like, just try, just try and be chill out there, you know, don't, Don't dress sloppy, like you don't give an F, okay? We're trying to look nice up here. You start dressing like it's, you know, the olden days when air travel is really nice.

And people, you know, the government actually helped fund it so that it was good. And so you guys do that and we'll keep treating everyone who works for us like absolute shit to the point that they treat you like shit and won't bother me. That won't be a problem for me. That actually works out pretty well for me. Sean Duffet. Men should be in suits, women in pearls, and children in their Sunday's best. That's how everyone should be flying. I love dressing like, like you have to be comfortable.

I think especially since I've had a kid. Yeah, I got to be comfortable, man. Because I have to, yeah, I wear a shit that I'm like, this is going to get dirty as fuck. Yes. Already. Too much that can go wrong. I can wear a beautiful shirt, Sean Duffy, okay, when I'm going to wear a beautiful shirt, Sean Duffy, okay, I'm going to microwave this light stick

and have it explode on my shirt. Beautiful shirt. The Comey case and the Letitia James case both tossed. Oh, out of here. Fucking gone. Really nothing to say. Yeah, it was just that the cases

looked completely fucked from the start and the judges looked at them and were like, these cases are completely fucked. Are you joking right now? No? Okay, well then the cases are tossed. Well, then they're like, oh, you're not joking. Okay, let me go one.

step before you even pretended you knew how to fucking prosecute a case. Your appointment is completely it's a wrongful appointment therefore you are null and void. You are not a prosecutor. Get the fuck out of here. Oh, they questioned her appointment

to the position? Wow. You are wrongfully appointed, fam. On the record, you this was a bad decision. You were bad at your job. I just want to state for the record. You were bad at your job. 100%. your career shouldn't exist in the form that it does.

You should be working for state farm in the state of Florida. Absolutely. Thank you. Thank you very much. Or do like the Miss Senior Colorado pageant or something now, right? Because you're 36. I think that's when that's the senior league start for those things. For pageants. So do that.

They have said, then unsurprisingly, they're like, well, we're going to refile against the black woman, Letitia James. So they haven't said shit about Letitia James. they're like, oh, we're going to go for it. But every person who predicted this outcome is like, bro, they're not going to, good fucking luck with an appeal also at this point. But this is what happens when the people that actually could have prosecuted this case were just not interested in getting like legally mopped in court because the cases were weak and fucking transparently unethical.

Yeah. All right. Just checking out. Dredge report job losses have accelerated consumer. confidence is spiraling, just some news from the economy. Turkey price up 24% year over year. 24%?

24%. Yeah. My God, y'all. They're so afraid of just, just we've been in a recession, I feel like, since last year, realistically. Yeah, instead of saying that, it's just isolated economic indicators. It's not that like the economy's

bad. Just like everything is just like unaffordable. Yeah. Just describing the vibe of a terrible of a recession. It's just like everything just out of reach for people right now. It's kind of gnarly. It's not a recession though. You people, not necessarily us, the people who work at MSNBC and cover it and have cushy relationships with the people who have all the money. There was a Washington Post thing about like the S&P 493 because you know it's the S&P 500. They're like, if you take out the top seven, okay, you're actually looking at a completely different economy. Yeah.
