6.11.2025 -- NLS -- Trump Backs Little, Chaos on TikTok
On this episode with Neal and Julie...
They unpack a wild mix of national politics, Idaho endorsements, and cultural commentary with their trademark wit and insight. Trump’s endorsement of Governor Brad Little sparks a lively discussion about the future of Idaho's GOP and the political ripple effects across the state, including the long-anticipated rise of Raul Labrador. They revisit Gavin Newsom’s bizarre “I’m literally on the phone with the president” moment and examine the public’s deepening distrust of major media outlets like ABC. Neal reflects on his recent 7,000-mile road trip and the idea of “manufactured chaos” pushed by the far left, particularly on platforms like TikTok. They critique political virtue signaling—from environmental posturing to classroom politics—and touch on everything from wild hair colors to Elon Musk’s erratic tweets. Along the way, there's plenty of humor, a shoutout to crab cakes and root beer, and a reminder that even lawn care can be political.
