Episode 80: Ballroom Lies & Mamdani’s Pass

October 29, 2025

The story of a renovation at the White House and the planned creation of a big ballroom is the perfect example of how media failures have left people in the dark. Depending on someone’s media bubble, they’ve either heard that Trump launched a destructive, crazy expensive vanity project that might even be illegal, or that it’s just a long awaited change and the left is freaking freaking out about nothing. Today, Josh pieces through the mess to get you the facts.

Also, news organizations generally play up a candidate’s past offensive remarks and actions — but not when it comes to antisemitism on the left. Then the mainstream media isn’t interested. And if other people make it a story, the media frames the candidate as a victim. Josh provides proof involving New York City mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani, who expressed his love for convicted funders of terrorism and praised an imam with ties to radical Islam.

Plus, a student leader who celebrated Charlie Kirk’s assassination might actually face a consequence despite the media’s effort to run cover for him.
