The Bob Cesca Show

Some of the Biggest Building Ever Built

Good day and welcome to Day 36 of the government shutdown. The FAA said it would cut scheduled air traffic by 10%. Tuesday's landslide election! The historic victories in New York, Virginia, New Jersey, California, Georgia, and Mississippi. Democracy is still very much alive. Sherrill far outperformed the polls. Misogyny and women candidates. Donald's economy is a jenga tower. Donald and the AI bubble. Shocker: Donald lied about the reduced cost of Walmart Thanksgiving meals. Donald's government might have to return all the tariff money it's collected. Tiny Trump's most epic short circuit ever. Hero of Democracy: Nancy Pelosi.

Mobius Strip of Insanity

How did the election go, people of the future? Donald's anti-semitic Election Day post about Mamdani. Donald pledges to investigate California's Prop 50 vote. Good day and welcome to Day 35 of the MAGA government shutdown. Airports are a nightmare right now. Donald is defying the court order to resume partial SNAP benefits. Mike Johnson on the filibuster. The horrendous 60 Minutes interview. Donald knows nothing about healthcare or the ACA. Was his right eye swollen? Donald thinks China and Russia are exploding nuclear warheads. They're not. Why nuclear testing is a horrible idea. Dick Cheney died. No Kings is bigger than MAGA. No Kings is bigger than MAGA.

Third Reich Bannon

Good day and welcome to day 30 of the MAGA government shutdown. Donald continues to screw his own people. The government shutdown will reduce U.S. economic output by up to $14 billion. Donald ordered nuclear tests. Sleep tight, America. This might be another thing he blurts that goes nowhere. DOJ has indicted Kat Abughazaleh. Ken Paxton is suing Tylenol. Mark Levin joins Roger Stone in condemning Bannon's third term remarks. Donald is in deep trouble with independent voters. Most Americans oppose the demolition of the East Wing.
