Today, Rachel's power went out (because living on a well is apparently a thing), so we're coming to you a little later than usual with the sound of lawnmowers in the background. But honestly, that's the least chaotic thing happening right now.

EXCITING NEWS: We're testing out VIDEO for the first time! While Meseidy looks like hot garbage (her words, not Rachel’s), we're among friends here. This is our first video run, and it's exclusively available for our paying supporters on Substack. If you want to see our beautiful faces while we roast the media, consider upgrading your subscription!

In this episode we're diving deep into the LA riots that had everyone's attention over the weekend - and spoiler alert: it wasn't just "peaceful protesters expressing their First Amendment rights." We'll break down how it all started with an assemblyman who decided to play detective, the violent criminals ICE was actually targeting (hint: not the innocent workers the media wants you to believe), and why Karen Bass and Gavin Newsom are out here acting like federal law enforcement is the real problem.

Plus, Trump's desk keeps getting bigger (seriously, we need to talk about this), and the Democrats are having their own little civil war while cities burn. It's giving major 2020 vibes, and not in a good way.

Buckle up - the media is trash, and we have no tolerance for it.

Video version available exclusively for paid Substack subscribers - because we love our supporters and want to share Rachel's good hair day with you!

Episode Highlights

ICE Raids Target Violent Criminals, Not Random Workers - The weekend's chaos started over targeted operations against criminals with rap sheets including murder, assault with firearms, and domestic violence - not the "innocent workers" narrative being pushed.
California Assemblyman Spreads Panic and Misinformation - Jose Luis Solache literally followed border patrol agents, assumed the worst, and called for people to descend on the area without knowing ICE had offices there.
Trump Deploys National Guard as Local Officials Fail - After LAPD took hours to respond to federal agents being attacked with cinder blocks and Molotov cocktails, Trump lawfully deployed the National Guard to protect federal buildings.
Karen Bass and Gavin Newsom Blame Everyone But Themselves - Both leaders are threatening federal agents and demanding ICE operations stop while their own cities burn, proving they're more interested in politics than public safety.
Trump's Desk Grows Wings and Gains Presidential Statues - The Resolute Desk now features side tables with massive busts of Abraham Lincoln and Ben Franklin, creating what can only be described as "mega desk" energy.Watch the clips!
