The Great MAGA Masquerade

BlueBird on Your Shoulder ·

All three hosts are back and firing fast. They tear into the leaked Young Republicans chat full of racist rants, shred the “locker-room talk” excuse, and roast MAGA’s cosplay masculinity. From there, they rip through Trump’s Top Gun photo-ops, the Pentagon press-corps purge, and collapsing loyalty inside his ranks. The crew hits global chaos—Russia’s nuke flex, Iran’s fury, and America’s looming economic dip—then closes on meat-market manipulation, soft secession, and Trump’s bizarre plan for a

Cancel Me Harder, Daddy

BlueBird on Your Shoulder ·

2025/09/26

This week we ride the whiplash carousel: Trump’s export-grade optics tour, a UN speech that treats climate like a con while flirting with détente, and a culture-war ouroboros where the “anti-cancel” crowd cancels with gusto. We kick the tires on 2028 succession gossip (MAGA edition), stress-test the AOC timeline, and peek at Powell’s maybe-cuts that keep getting maybe-later. Plus: memorials, forgiveness, and what accountability actually looks like in a country addicted to main-character energy. It’s
