episode Pre-Pardon Precedent: Why Fauci May Escape Prosecution for COVID Coverups cover

Description

We roll into Father's Day weekend live on a federal holiday, rejecting lame, hacky countdown radio to bring you the massive news dropping from the highest levels of the intelligence community. Outgoing Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard uses her final day in office to drop a massive trove of declassified documents. We break down her highly produced video announcement exposing how Dr. Anthony Fauci funneled millions in US taxpayer dollars into dangerous gain of function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. The crew details the shocking evidence showing how Fauci actively worked with politicized leadership inside the intelligence community to bury the lab leak truth, manipulate assessments, and retaliate against whistleblowers. We analyze the legal and constitutional fallout of this release, debating the precedent of a blanket pre-pardon backdated to 2014 and whether the system will ever deliver actual accountability, or if this simply ends up as more high-profile lip service. We also get personal as we look ahead to next week’s Families Behind the Badge Children’s Foundation live broadcast at FOP Lodge 5. The crew hashes out our team text thread logistics, laughs about getting our riding schedules aligned, and looks back at the heavy-handed local mandates that forced us into compliance right here in Philadelphia during the height of the pandemic shutdowns.

episode Kensington Cam And New Rules In New Jersey For E Bike Riders artwork

Kensington Cam And New Rules In New Jersey For E Bike Riders

Phil closes with Today in Music History, covering Chris Cornell, Chester Bennington and several major record dates before Dawn’s Big Three begins. Dawn’s Big Three opens in Kensington, where police search for suspects accused of targeting unhoused victims and a live camera streams street activity around the clock. We watch Kensington Cam, question who operates it and react to the strange mix of viewers, ads and open-air disorder. The segment connects the feed with recent robberies, shootings and drug seizures in the neighborhood. Big Three item two moves to Canada geese. Abington hires federal wildlife staff to use green lasers, boats and noise devices, while a Madison community authorizes the killing of 550 geese after health and sanitation complaints. We discuss aggressive birds, waste, pet exposure, water hazards and the FDA’s admission that a Taylor Farms cyclospora result was a false positive. Big Three item three covers New Jersey’s e-bike law, including registration, licenses, helmets, insurance and age limits. The crew then turns the rules into another attempt by Nick to shorten the Ben to the Shore ride, followed by a serious talk about pace, rest stops, volunteers and the Atlantic City finish. With the team roughly $2,500 short of $30,000, a Families Behind the Badge video brings the show to an emotional close.

episode Hunter Biden Believes A Closeted Republican Power Circle Runs Washington. artwork

Hunter Biden Believes A Closeted Republican Power Circle Runs Washington.

Hunter Biden opens the hour by alleging that a closeted Republican power circle runs Washington. We question the point of his claim, the refusal to name names and the broader obsession with private lives. Harry Enten’s voter-ID figures then pull us back to policy, with strong support across racial and party groups feeding our demand for the SAVE America Act. Fight Club features a skateboarder, a Mercedes and a shattered windshield outside Mamoun’s Falafel. The crew tries to decide who starts the trouble, then moves to Tom Brady slapping Logan Paul and the possibility that the entire scene is staged for wrestling. Shane Gillis’ stadium show returns briefly as we debate large venues for stand-up. The final major Cut Sheet clip comes from the University of Central Florida, where police body-camera footage shows a student confronting officers over pronouns before the encounter turns physical. We focus on the officer’s original stolen-vehicle call, repeated efforts to calm the scene, pepper spray, a Taser and the resulting charges.

episode The Angry Senator artwork

The Angry Senator

The WNBA then creates its own controversy when Sandy Brondello calls Angel Reese a protected species and receives a one-game suspension. We compare the league’s response with the physical contact Caitlin Clark absorbs and ask whether identity politics has replaced sound officiating. Harry Mayes arrives for the Cut Sheet, where Fox News’ Fetterman fixation, Bill Maher’s claimed openness to JD Vance and AOC’s Southern rally cadence start the next run. The Cut Sheet keeps moving through AOC, Bernie Sanders and Michigan Senate hopeful Abdul El-Sayed. We question El-Sayed’s socialist pitch after hearing about his household income, his wife’s insurance policy and Sanders’ endorsement. Fetterman attacks the same wing of his party, and the crew considers whether moderate Democratic voters now lack a comfortable political home. Maine Senate hopeful Ashley Webb produces one of the morning’s longest and wildest reactions after promising to become an angry senator. The crew studies the viral debate answer, Webb’s prior runs for office and the claim that honesty is the main qualification. The discussion stays blunt, visual and firmly in Cut Sheet territory. A Florida assistant principal then gets arrested for riding an e-bike after leaving a bar, buying a 12-pack and ignoring a deputy’s warning. A Louisiana Chili’s dispute presents competing claims about a worker’s firing, a coworker’s chosen name and alleged harassment. We finish the hour with the newly released body-camera footage involving Sunny Hostin’s son, a Metro-North trespassing citation, officers reducing the charge and Hostin asking for a warning.

episode Fetterman Fatigue, Shane Gillis’ Record Night artwork

Fetterman Fatigue, Shane Gillis’ Record Night

We test John Fetterman’s party-switch talk against his voting record and his statement that changing parties would not change his votes. His support for Israel, his friction with Democrats and his bipartisan work with Dave McCormick all enter the discussion. We argue that Republicans should judge him by the SAVE America Act and other votes rather than flattering television appearances. Shane Gillis returns to Philadelphia and fills Lincoln Financial Field, earning records for attendance and tickets sold at a solo comedy show. We trace his rise after the SNL firing, salute his willingness to offend every side and debate whether stand-up works inside a football stadium. Dave Chappelle, Meek Mill and Eagles guests add a local stamp to the night.

episode Nick’s Bone-Spur Alibi artwork

Nick’s Bone-Spur Alibi

We welcome Greg Stocker back, hear why drinking water with lunch may increase food intake and get the first medical report on Nick’s neck. A wiffle-ball collision with his daughter gives the crew all the material it needs, while Nick insists he still plans to ride in the Ben to the Shore event. Fundraising rivalries, rider totals and the possibility of an e-bike keep the opening stretch moving. Dawn reports on U.S. service members tied to attacks in Jordan and Iraq, Iran’s threats, rising gasoline prices, a double shooting in Tioga-Nicetown and the burglary at Saquon Barkley’s home. We also cover Delaware County’s cyberattack and New Jersey’s licensing, registration and insurance rules for e-bikes. Phil Almquist follows with the Phillies’ loss to the Mets, Spain’s World Cup victory, the revenue coming to Philadelphia and Ryan Fox’s British Open win. The Big Take examines the newly released election files, Markwayne Mullin’s voter-roll claims, Scott Pressler’s Pennsylvania findings and Josh Shapiro’s response. Catherine Herridge discusses intelligence reports involving China, while we press the case for paper ballots, voter ID and proof of citizenship. Olive Garden’s pasta-pass policy becomes a punch line, Michael Smerconish challenges the networks, and the crew debates whether Republican midterm messaging should focus less on 2020 and more on socialism, crime, the border and current costs.
