Black Robes & Bloodlines: SCOTUS Nukes Tariffs, El Mencho Eliminated
Alex and Dani are back tonight because apparently the news cycle decided subtlety was overrated. The Supreme Court just kneecapped a major piece of U.S. trade policy while the cartel world got a leadership vacancy notice. Legacy media is busy soft-pedaling both. We’ll handle it. No pearl-clutching. No selective outrage. Just facts and context the way they’re supposed to be delivered.
Tonight's Lineup:
Supreme Court Strikes Down Tariffs – The black robes decided the middle of global economic chaos was the perfect time to clip executive trade authority. We’ll break down what the ruling actually says, what it means for America, and the President's response.
‘El Mencho’ Killed – The long-time head of the CJNG cartel is reportedly dead, sending shockwaves through Mexico’s criminal underworld. Power vacuum? Fragmentation? More ...
We haven't been streaming, and I figure you all deserve to know why.
On August 10th I decided to take the rest of the month off. Honestly, it started as a heat thing. Keeping the studio comfortable this summer was miserable and I just didn't want to deal with it. But August ended and I realized something: I didn't miss streaming. Not even a little. I asked Dani if she felt the same way, and she did.
Yesterday was the show's anniversary. I didn't feel any pull or desire to go live. Dani and I made a deal a long time ago that we'd keep doing this as long as it was fun, and the second it started feeling like work, we'd stop. I think we're there.
Dani has other successful projects going that take up a lot of her time, and they're very much worth her time. As for me, I’m at the point where I prefer recording and uploading on my own schedule better than the grind of live streaming. So going forward, live streaming is going to be the exception, not the rule.
This isn't necessarily a goodbye. ...
