This episode is a journey that starts with one media savvy YouTube personality that Fox News tries to pawn off as a random man from The Bronx. I picked up on some clues that many of the “every day New Yorkers,” featured in segments about Trump’s rally in The Bronx were really politicians and activists. I created a Twitter thread about it Fox News responded. The entire thing comes full circle. I also discovered a Black Trump supporter who is obsessed with the Proud Boys - things got weird.

Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden was a six-hour festival of fascism. I reduced it down to 90 minutes with brief excerpts from every single speech. Trump also included five speakers with a net worth of $500 million or more.
Juliet watched nine hours of Fox News and roughly eight and a half hours of the PBS News Hour from of the night of the 2024 presidential election. This podcast breaks the whole thing down hour by hour with illuminating quotes from both networks. A legitimate news source versus rightwing propaganda.
