MAGA ‘Disavow’ Meltdown, Vivek’s Sleaziest Ad Yet, and Mike Rogers’ Dark-Money Iraq Pipeline
Dan Griffin and Corey Walsh kick off a chaotic Libservative episode after watching the second Michigan Senate debate between Abdul El-Sayed and Mike Rogers, arguing the candidates are largely the same on protectionism, taxes, and “just add funding” solutions for failing schools. They cover a town hall confrontation where GOP operative Tommy Tepel presses El-Sayed to “disavow the Muslim Brotherhood,” then discuss how MAGA pundits still claimed he refused. The hosts mock Trump press secretary turnover, criticize Trump and Pete Hegseth for calling for Nidal Hasan’s firing-squad execution as an “honorable” death, and react to Trump’s staged call endorsing Netanyahu while predicting escalation with Iran. They highlight reporting on Mike Rogers’ ties to defense contracting through his wife’s firm and play clips involving Mark Levin and viral drunk politician Jamie West.
