The guys talk economics in hour two, as we review how cutting federal funding for a host of programs will tank the economy. In addition, we chat about Trump's plan to 'replace taxes with tariffs,' In a break from politics, we chat with Brittney Merlot about her time in Florida, at a pirate festival (!), and about the possibility of breaking a temperature record today. At the bottom of the hour John and Gordy cover a story from Ohio, where a proposed bill would require universities to "teach from both sides," on issues such as the holocaust. To make sense of it all, we welcome on Attorney and host of Amicus: A Law Review, Jim Santelle. Despite his usual calming demeanor, he agrees - actions such as revoking the 14th amendment, and pardoning J6 rioters are "bonkers, nutso."
