James and Lisa discuss the Justice Dept.'s bullying of Letitia James, how badly the Trump Tariffs could hurt the auto supply business and a big "oops" at the National Weather Service. Then the topic moves to Laura Loomer and her persistent, but hard-to-explain power over Trump Administration hiring.

We're witnessing what could be the most perplexing era in American history.

Donald Trump and his supporters are spreading fringe ideas, conspiracy theories, anti-intellectualism, and a rejection of science are all gaining a foothold in our public discourse. It's maddening. It has never been more important for Americans to stand up for democracy.

You don't have to face stupidity alone. Every week (more or less), "Life in the Stupid Times" will examine the insanity to help you make sense of the growing pile of nonsense. We are proudly pro-democracy and anti-fascist.

There's no cure for stupidity. But we can prevent it. Get your dose of sanity here.

James is joined by Guest Co-Host Matt Roush. James and Matt talk about efforts to make gas cans great again, how things worked out for an anti-woke dad who moved his family to Russia, and the latest shenanigans of RFK Jr. They then move on to discuss why the charges made against Barack Obama are ridiculous, but perfectly calibrated to appeal to Trump's base supporters.
