Octogenarian Octagon

Octogenarian Octagon

America was supposed to turn 250 this year. One man turned it into his own 80th birthday party instead: a cage fight on the people's lawn, a beer sponsor, party lights bright enough to blind a pilot on approach, and a twelve-thousand-dollar coin with his face on one side and We the People on the other.  Lyrics: South Lawn's got a ninety-foot claw Eighty-seven-foot cage where the rose garden was Bud Light logos on every wall Monster Energy sign bigger than God Seventy-nine going on eighty Turns the whole country into his birthday party Pay-per-view, eight-ninety-nine a month While pilots scream "I can't see the runway, cunt!" They said it was America's two-fifty But it's just one old man and his UFC grift Commodores bailed, Young MC dipped Vanilla Ice is the only one left on the ship OCTOGENARIAN OCTAGON! His face on the coin, We the People on the back! OCTOGENARIAN OCTAGON! Autopen signed it, he was too busy to sign! You turned the Mall into a parking lot brawl And called it freedom, you senile asshole! OCTOGENARIAN OCTAGON! Happy birthday to you, America's gone! Ring girls in flag bikinis on Flag Day Violating federal code in the most American way "Respect the flag!" they screamed for ten years straight Now it's ass cheeks and stars on the Octagon Girls stage Crypto dot com and Bud Light holding hands TKO stock in the president's pants Sixty million dollars, seven agencies deep While North Carolina can't afford to show up and weep They starved the real commission, funneled the cash To a cage fight and a coin with his face on the stash Eleven-thousand-nine-hundred-and-ninety-nine For a chunk of gold that's worth half that time OCTOGENARIAN OCTAGON! His face on the coin, We the People on the back! OCTOGENARIAN OCTAGON! Autopen signed it, he was too busy to sign! You blinded the pilots over Reagan at night Sixty-seven died there, but the lights were too bright! OCTOGENARIAN OCTAGON! Happy birthday to you, America's gone! Jane Fonda's eighty-eight throwing a real show Patti Smith, Bette Midler, five thousand rooms saying NO While you're in a chair watching men grapple for cash On ground soaked in marches and blood from the past They tore up the reflecting pool like it was nothing Made the Washington Monument your corporate backdrop You wanted your name on the Kennedy Center too Judge said "scrape it off" and thirty-five thousand cheered while it flew OCTOGENARIAN OCTAGON! We the People are watching you lose! OCTOGENARIAN OCTAGON! Your grift's showing, motherfucker, choose! Bud Light cage, Monster sign, coin made of shame States walked out, musicians bailed, only the grifters remained! OCTOGENARIAN OCTAGON! This ain't a birthday, this is a con! OCTOGENARIAN OCTAGON! We're burning it down before the next one! Happy two hundred and fifty, you geriatric clown The cage comes down Monday But the receipts? They're staying around. OCTOGENARIAN OCTAGON!

Trump's UFC White House Cage Fight: How America's 250th Birthday Became His 80th

Trump turned America's 250th birthday, the country's semiquincentennial, into a $60 million UFC cage fight on the White House South Lawn for his own 80th birthday. This episode of We Saw the Devil breaks down the entire Freedom 250 disaster: the pay-per-view cage match, the beer and crypto sponsors, the commemorative coin with his face on it, and the party lights that nearly blinded a pilot landing at Reagan National. Host Robin, a jaded Poli Sci major and full-time political obsessee, follows the money through the UFC, Paramount, the $110 billion merger that needs Trump's blessing, Jane Fonda's rival concert at 88, the ring girl outfits that violate flag code on Flag Day, and the six states that refused to attend their own country's birthday.

The Karmelo Anthony Case: Four Minutes. Two Boys. One Country.

On June 9, 2026, a Collin County jury convicted Karmelo Anthony of murder in the stabbing death of Austin Metcalf and sentenced him to 35 years. Within hours, the country split into two camps, and both of them are wrong. In this episode, Robin walks through what actually happened at Kuykendall Stadium on April 2, 2025, fact by verified fact: the trial testimony, the five words that destroyed the self-defense claim, the Texas provocation doctrine, and why the jury got this verdict right. Then she turns to the part almost no one covering this case will say in the same breath: the grief and rage coming out of Black America over this verdict is rational, documented, and backed by data. Brock Turner got three months. Ethan Couch got probation for four deaths. Lakeith Smith got 65 years for a killing a cop committed. The double standard is real, and this episode brings the receipts. Also in this episode: why the viral "two knives, two verdicts" comparison to the Caysen Allison case doesn't hold up, and the one question inside it that does. The all-white jury and the Batson appeal that's coming. The death penalty calls that were unconstitutional from day one. Jasmine Crockett's false claims, the $630,000 GiveSendGo, the white nationalist rally a grieving father had to denounce, and the entire economy feeding on two dead boys. A verdict can be correct and a system can be broken at the same time, in the same courtroom. If you can't hold both, that's a you problem. We don't do fair. We do factual.

Donald Trump Gets a Pass. Graham Platner Gets a Woodchipper: The Impossible Democratic Purity Test

Graham Platner is leading Susan Collins in one of the most important Senate races in the country, and instead of asking how Democrats can win the seat, half the party seems busy feeding its own candidate into the purity machine. We break down the allegations against Platner, what he has admitted, what he denies, and why the political background of his most prominent accuser matters. We also talk about the larger question Democrats keep refusing to answer: what exactly is the standard? Because Donald Trump has 34 felony convictions, was found civilly liable for sexual abuse, owes millions in defamation damages, and is still treated by Republicans as perfectly fit to govern. But Graham Platner, a Marine combat veteran and PTSD survivor running against Susan Collins, gets treated like an extinction-level event by his own party. Also in this episode: Trump cries election fraud while his own candidates are winning in California, Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon slashes recognized faiths and leans harder into Christian nationalism, Republicans briefly flinch at a $1.8 billion weaponization slush fund before protecting the possibility of bringing it back, Trump’s White House ballroom donors rake in billions in federal contracts, and the House moves to rename the Department of Defense the Department of War. It is corruption, hypocrisy, purity politics, and institutional cowardice all the way down.

Grandpa Shit*ypants Wants to Build a Force Field: A News Round-Up

The band quit America's 250th birthday, so he crowned himself the GOAT. A judge froze Trump's $1.8 billion self-suing slush fund. His AG sat behind a closed, unfilmed door and dodged the Epstein question five times. An AI says his heart is fourteen years younger than he is. He told Fox he "left Iran's military alone," after two months of bragging he destroyed it, then admitted "we shouldn't have been in Iran." He shoved his own MAGA critics into an AI clown car. Candace Owens wants him in a home. The East Wing is rubble, there's a UFC cage on the South Lawn, and Trump wants a force field over the building he sits in. It's...a lot.  Available everywhere you listen to podcasts.  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-unfiltered-political-analysis--4433638/support [https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-unfiltered-political-analysis--4433638/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss].
