John’s monologue this time is a mixed bag of stories. He talks about ICE’s illegal arrest of Tufts University PhD grad student Rumeysa Ozturk; Utah’s governor Spencer Cox turning a blind eye to his state banning LGBTQ pride flags; Trump’s so-called “Liberation Day” – April 2nd when reciprocal tariffs (in addition to others like car parts) are set to go into effect; the never-ending excuses from the GOP over the Signalgate debacle; and Trump backing down on his Canadian badmouthing after the new Prime Minister of Canada – Mark Carney – sets the tone and draws the line on Trump’s bullying. Then, comedians Natalia Reagan and TV’s Frank Conniff are back and they joke around with John and listeners about pop culture, current news, and the latest mishigas from Trump and company.
