Episode 4: America First… Except for Food, Medicine, and Logic 20.07.2025 21:32

This week’s headlines read like satire—except they’re real. The Trump administration slashed funding for an HIV vaccine, burned nearly a million dollars’ worth of emergency food, and made plans for a UFC fight on the White House lawn… all while dropping $40 million on a statue park.
