2025/10/24

This week’s episode breaks down one of the most ridiculous outrage cycles yet — the “No Kings” protests and the media’s obsession with Trump’s White House ballroom.

Trevor Lawrence memes, Chiefs heartbreak, and the truth about America’s healthcare fight. Trevor Lawrence was caught picking his nose on the sidelines just minutes before driving down the field on the Chiefs’ defense — capping it off with a game-winning touchdown rush after tripping twice. Then we pivot to politics. The government shutdown drags on, largely over disagreements about healthcare spending. The left wants to reinstate funding cut from the One Big Beautiful Bill and extend subsidies for

The stock market continues its strong run in 2025, with all major indices reaching new all-time highs this week. Year-to-date, the S&P 500 is nearly 15%, while the Nasdaq 100 has gained 18%. The federal government’s fiscal year ended Tuesday night without a budget agreement, triggering a government shutdown on Wednesday. Historically, shutdowns have had minimal lasting impact on markets, with stocks often rising slightly during these periods. However, the immediate effect has been a delay in

2025/10/09

The military’s new fitness standards are sparking outrage. Are they fair, sexist, or even fatphobic? Elliot breaks down the one-standard debate, starting with his most degrading PT story from Fort Hood (the sink incident). We also dive into the Tylenol-autism debate — a messy fight between science and political spin. Since Trump was the messenger, people turned it into a circus instead of focusing on the science.

2025/09/04

Trump was trending this weekend for an odd reason: conspiracies about his health — with some even claiming he was dead. Those rumors collapsed on Tuesday when Trump held a press conference from the Oval Office. The irony? Many of the same voices questioning Trump’s health are the ones who insisted Biden was fit to serve as president. Rosie O’Donnell was forced to issue an “apology” after falsely labeling the Minneapolis Catholic school shooter as “MAGA” and a “white supremacist.” Meanwhile, CNN is

The NFL has gone FULL woke — from male cheerleaders to end-zone slogans — and fans are fed up. With the NFL season just around the corner, excitement is building. Sundays mean food, beer, and football — both real and fantasy. But while fans gear up, the NFL continues to evolve into a woke league. Recently, the Vikings made headlines for including male cheerleaders in traditionally female roles — but they weren’t the first. The LA Rams led the way back in 2018. It’s ironic: women have fought for

Violent crime in Washington, DC is near 30-year lows — but stubbornly high homicide rates keep it among the most dangerous U.S. cities. Is President Trump right or wrong to call in the National Guard? The media says no, but we’re not so sure. Trump also made waves by pushing for a new U.S. Census — unusual outside the 10-year cycle — and seeking to exclude illegal immigrants from the count. Supporters call it common sense, critics say it defies the Constitution. In money news, new rules will

The political theater continues this week as Texas Republicans push an aggressive redistricting plan that could flip five U.S. House seats in their favor ahead of the 2026 midterms. Backed by Governor Abbott, the move has sparked fierce backlash, prompting over 50 Democratic state legislators to flee the state and break quorum—blocking the vote entirely. In response, Republican leaders have issued civil arrest warrants and are even seeking FBI assistance to locate the missing lawmakers. National

They Called Sydney Sweeney a Nazi… Over Jeans?

2025/07/31

We kick things off with American Eagle’s bold new ad campaign featuring Sydney Sweeney — a healthy, attractive woman and a major shift from the industry’s recent trend of using “body inclusivity” as a marketing crutch. While most people appreciate the lighthearted “Good Jeans” slogan, some critics are stretching to connect it to eugenics and Nazi ideals due to Sweeney’s blonde hair and blue eyes. We find that claim absurd — and so do most consumers. The result? American Eagle stock is up, and the

The Real Reason Colbert Was Canceled (It Wasn’t Trump)

Was Stephen Colbert really canceled over politics… or was it just bad business? If you listen to the media narrative, you might think Colbert was forced out after calling Trump’s $16 million settlement with Paramount “a bribe.” Just days later, he announced The Late Show would officially end in May 2026. But here’s the truth: the show has reportedly been losing $40 million a year — with Colbert pulling in a $15 million salary. That kind of math doesn’t work forever. This episode breaks down

In this episode of The Elliot Omanson Show, we break down President Joe Biden’s recent interview with the New York Times, where he defends his use of the autopen to approve a wave of last-minute presidential pardons. Biden insists he was fully in control — blasting Trump and Republicans as “liars.” But leaked emails from Chief of Staff Jeff Zients suggest otherwise: White House staffers approved the pardons using Biden’s name based on what was “orally” said in meetings, not direct written

2025/07/11

The government fails at a lot of things — but one thing it does remarkably well is hiding the truth from the American people. The Jeffrey Epstein case is the prime example. Both parties have played a role in burying the facts. While the government can’t completely silence the so-called “conspiracies,” it has done a disturbingly effective job at keeping the full truth hidden. The Biden administration has allowed the cover-up to continue — and the Trump administration was no better. Neither side is
