MAGA's Taylor Swift Psyop?

Yevgeny Simkin joins us today to discuss how social media shaped this election. Did the propaganda train win them this election? Does whoever control the information control the nation? He's also here to help promote the new social media platform that looks to overtake X, and it's called Sez.us. Simkin and Joe explain the importance of this app and the features that places Sez.us miles ahead of X.

Last week on Fox News the 2024 election was reduced to a battle to win over one of the smallest voting demographics in the American electorate - Black men a group normally loyal to the Democratic Party. The network also ramped up fear of the emasculating left by pushing stories of trans female athletes and government programs that pay for gender affirming surgeries for prisoners. Kamala Harris was presented as an evil shrew while Tim Walz was an ineffective effeminate even though he’s been a highly successful politician since he flipped a Republican Congressional district blue and rose to the highest office in the state of Minnesota.

Rick Wilson sits down with Congressman Jared Moskowitz to unpack the performative politics dominating the Republican caucus, highlighting how spectacle often overshadows substance in today’s GOP, and how good it feels to make James Comer eat his words. They explore the impact of these theatrics on effective governance, especially during crises, and how misinformation fuels political grandstanding.
