Why is this relevant? Well, because in a resurfaced interview Lewis Hamilton, who again, is worth $500 million and dating a woman worth $2 billion, said there should be limits on what people can earn and how much money they have. Seriously "One of the things that I struggle with every day, and it's just how life is, and it's been this way for thousands of years, is that there is such a disparity between the wealthy and the poor," he responded. "When you drive around LA there's still so many people living on the streets. "You shouldn't be able to have billions, right, I think there should be a limit to how much you can have because there's enough to go around to everyone. So, somehow create a law that creates more equality and equal access for everyone." ----- AI Escort’s 6k Nookie (New York Post) [https://nypost.com/2026/06/08/business/escorts-are-charging-as-much-as-6k-per-hour-thanks-to-silicon-valleys-ai-boom/] Escorts are charging as much as $6K per hour thanks to Silicon Valley’s AI boom. Silicon Valley’s AI millionaires are paying eye-popping rates of up to $6,000 an hour — and $23,000 a day — for escorts who can discuss GPUs, artificial intelligence and the future of humanity before heading to the bedroom. A small but lucrative class of so-called “nerd-first” escorts is cashing in on the tech industry’s wealth explosion by marketing themselves as intellectually curious companions who can match clients’ obsession with AI, cryptocurrency, longevity and other futurist pursuits. While escorts on industry platforms may charge around $1,000 an hour at the high end, several women interviewed for the story reported rates between $3,500 and $6,000 an hour. Hopper said she charges $5,000 an hour, while Aella said she charges $6,000 ---- SHOW CREDITS: Thank you to my co-host, Ken Madden of MaddK Studio [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/maddk-studio] Audio credits and Producer Jason Radosevich Horrible Designs [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/horrible-designs] Cast: Kate the Duchess of NJ and John Jamingo of theBoomer Bunker [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/boomer-bunker] Aaron of I had to Say it [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/i-had-to-say-it] Boomer Bob of the Boomer Bob Show [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/boomer-bob] Lorenzo from Misanthrope Radio 2.0 [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/misanthrope-radio-2-0] Cody the Beard as the Last Word.

A federal lawsuit filed against the National Park Service and the Department of the Interior seeks an emergency injunction to stop the UFC event scheduled for the White House South Lawn. According to the lawsuit, organizers ignored federal permitting rules, skipped environmental reviews and triggered conflict-of-interest concerns. The event is being promoted as part of America's 250th birthday celebration and, yes, the plan is to stage a UFC card on the White House lawn. According to the lawsuit, the problems start with hosting the fights in front of the executive mansion. The plaintiffs argue the White House South Lawn and nearby federal property are subject to strict rules that generally prohibit commercial structures and private sporting events without environmental review and congressional approval. ---- SHOW CREDITS: Thank you to my co-host, Ken Madden of MaddK Studio [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/maddk-studio] Audio credits and Producer Jason Radosevich Horrible Designs [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/horrible-designs] Cast: Kate the Duchess of NJ and John Jamingo of theBoomer Bunker [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/boomer-bunker] Aaron of I had to Say it [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/i-had-to-say-it] Boomer Bob of the Boomer Bob Show [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/boomer-bob] Lorenzo from Misanthrope Radio 2.0 [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/misanthrope-radio-2-0] Cody the Beard as the Last Word.

The New World screwworm fly has reached south Texas, the U.S. Department of Agriculture confirmed Wednesday, the first time in decades that the parasite with flesh-eating larvae has threatened the nation’s cattle industry and only the third time it’s appeared in the U.S. in that time. Screwworms are nasty little buggers. The screwworm fly uses mammalian hosts to facilitate its disgusting lifestyle; females "lay 250 - 500 eggs in the exposed flesh of warm-blooded animals. The larvae hatch and burrow into the surrounding tissue as they feed." ----- Why? Because! That’s Why… (Fox 2 News) Why it's taking so long to count California primary votes? State election officials are expected to learn sometime on Thursday exactly how many votes still need to be counted in the California primary election, as well as how long the process could take. According to Ballot Tracker, approximately 6.5 million ballots have been counted so far out of 23 million registered voters in California. Because it could take several days or even weeks to finish counting all the remaining votes, the vote totals in the race for California governor remain relatively unchanged. ---- SHOW CREDITS: Thank you to my co-host, Ken Madden of MaddK Studio [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/maddk-studio] Audio credits and Producer Jason Radosevich Horrible Designs [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/horrible-designs] Cast: Kate the Duchess of NJ and John Jamingo of theBoomer Bunker [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/boomer-bunker] Aaron of I had to Say it [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/i-had-to-say-it] Boomer Bob of the Boomer Bob Show [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/boomer-bob] Lorenzo from Misanthrope Radio 2.0 [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/misanthrope-radio-2-0] Cody the Beard as the Last Word.

A DHS spokesperson said that detainees are provided three meals a day, clean water, clothing, bedding, showers, soap and other basic necessi􀆟es. Sherrill has also faced cri􀆟cism from Newark officials, ac􀆟vists and law-enforcement supporters over her response to demonstra􀆟ons outside the facility. ---- SHOW CREDITS: Thank you to my co-host, Ken Madden of MaddK Studio [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/maddk-studio] Audio credits and Producer Jason Radosevich Horrible Designs [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/horrible-designs] Cast: Kate the Duchess of NJ and John Jamingo of theBoomer Bunker [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/boomer-bunker] Aaron of I had to Say it [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/i-had-to-say-it] Boomer Bob of the Boomer Bob Show [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/boomer-bob] Lorenzo from Misanthrope Radio 2.0 [https://the-weatherd-view.captivate.fm/misanthrope-radio-2-0] Cody the Beard as the Last Word.
