We came back again in the mornin’ for this one. Listen how sleepy! We talk about his war-hawkin, &quot;if we nominate Trump we will get destroyed and we will deserve it,&quot; the Disneyland bubble wand photo, plus even more Mitch McConnell and Kash’s copy-pastin’. Then in the second part that we recorded first: · ICE and immigration violence&amp;nbsp;— the deaths of Lorenzo Salgado and Mohammed Nazir Pateawal, National Guard shootings in Memphis, and Mark Wayne Mullin defendin’ the indefensible. · &amp;nbsp;Tariffs, Iran, lost tourism money, the Big Beautiful Bill’s big beautiful Medicaid and disability cuts—how much is this costing us? · Marcia Blackburn's fortune-cookie ad&amp;nbsp; · Pete Hegseth targets Black people again, RFK’s podcast features anti-vaxxer child murderers, JD Vance still awkward, Trump’s Qatar jet fails the Secret Service test, Trump’s still mad about the Kennedy Center · Trump gets a bridge named after him in East Tennessee. Even Scott Bessent was at the ceremony! · Platner’s out, Epstein files locked up, the Federal Election Commission is fired Disability online advocates and influencers: Allie Weelz https://www.instagram.com/alliewheelz?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== Kendra Depinto https://www.instagram.com/kendrawesomeness?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== April Lockhart (she’s in Nashville) https://www.instagram.com/aprillockhart?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== Get 20 Extra minutes over at http://patreon.com/redstateupdate &quot;The Magic Cowboy&quot; courtesy Seth Timbs:&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;https://sethtimbs.bandcamp.com Red State Update theme &quot;Tasty Sorghum Biscuit&quot; by William Sherry:&amp;nbsp; https://open.spotify.com/track/74j2AyMM9Qy2VhSQDajhfn&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Red State Update http://redstateupdate.libsyn.com <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/42062900/height/300/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/ff0000/" height="300" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/item/42062900
