The Fog of War and the Smog of Stupid

Frangela: The Final Word ·

2025/12/05

This week on The Final Word, the clown car of chaos is back on the road. A watchdog report says Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth risked endangering troops by sharing sensitive war plans on Signal—because apparently WhatsApp wasn’t insecure enough. Then he defended a deadly strike on a drug boat by calling it “the fog of war” while simultaneously tossing Admiral Frank Bradley under the bus. Meanwhile, Trump pardoned former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez, who was serving 45 years for

2025/12/03

This week on Something Ain’t Right, Frangela is bringing the heat and asking the questions nobody else will. Like—what happens when college students can’t do math anymore? Spoiler: it ain’t cute. And whatever happened to neighborly neighbors? Because one hulking home addition has folks feuding like it’s Hatfields vs. McCoys, and the city officials are just as stumped. Meanwhile, the EPA decided to approve new “forever chemical” pesticides for food—because apparently poisoning us forever is now

Rush Hour of Ridiculousness

Frangela: The Final Word ·

2025/11/26

This week on Something Ain’t Right, the stupid is coming at us faster than Chris Tucker in a buddy cop movie. Trump’s Department of Education decided nursing is no longer a “professional degree”—because apparently saving lives isn’t professional enough. Meanwhile, Trump is pressuring Oracle’s Larry Ellison to crank out a new Rush Hour film, because when democracy is crumbling, what we really need is Jackie Chan. Experts are warning the Internet might go down in a big way, so start practicing your

Maximum Incompetence & Minimum Transparency

Frangela: The Final Word ·

2025/11/21

This week on The Final Word, we are serving you a buffet of incompetence with a side of foolishness. The Justice Department forgot to show the grand jury the Comey indictment—because apparently, reading is hard. Interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan is out here proving that “trustworthiness” is just a word you put on a vision board. Meanwhile, Pam Bondi promises “maximum transparency” on Epstein records, which is like us promising “maximum salad” at a barbecue—girl, please. Trump is threatening to

Things Are Pretty Crappy: Legal Homicides, Shady Contracts, and MAGA WhiplashThis week on Something Ain’t Right, Frangela-style truth-telling is in full effect as we break down the mess that is America right now:One in four households are living paycheck to paycheck—because apparently, trickle-down economics means trickling into your overdraft fees.A firm tied to Kristi Noem quietly scooped up cash from a $220 million DHS ad contract. That’s right—while you were budgeting for groceries, they were

Epstein Emails, Maxwell Mayhem & Mortgage Madness

Frangela: The Final Word ·

2025/11/14

This week on The Final Word, the receipts are dropping like confetti at a scandal parade. The Epstein files reveal emails where Jeffrey Epstein himself wrote that “of course Trump knew about the girls.” The House Oversight Committee released three emails that suggest Trump was well aware of Epstein’s crimes involving young women—and yet, whispers swirl about whether he’s considering a pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s convicted co-conspirator.Meanwhile, the White House was caught flat-footed

SNAP Judgments

Racists are feeding AI slop to social media to exacerbate racial animus and continue to pit poor people against other poor people.Trump is two-faced and The US Treasury has shared a draft of a coin to commemorate that.Kristi Noem bought many concepts of a plane from Spirit Airlines.Norman Rockwell's estate is fed up with Trump's people co-opting his paintings to push, you guessed it, racism.Our Sponsors:* Check out Bioma Health and use my code FRANGELA for a great deal:

Ballots, Bailouts & Billionaire Blame Games

Frangela: The Final Word ·

2025/11/07

This week on The Final Word, the voters said “Not today, Satan—and not in 2028 either.” Democrats swept elections across multiple states, flipping governorships, legislative chambers, and ballot measures like it was a clearance sale on common sense.California passed Proposition 50 with a strong 64%—giving Democrats the power to redraw five congressional districts in response to Republican gerrymandering. Because if you’re gonna play dirty, don’t be mad when the other side brings a mop.Meanwhile,

THE CALL IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE COUNTRY |...

Frangela: The Final Word ·

2025/11/05

This week on Something Ain’t Right, we’re asking the question that should’ve been screamed from the rooftops: Why are top Trump officials moving onto military bases like it’s Camp MAGA? Is this a relocation or a rehearsal for something we should be worried about?Then we dive into the Great Gatsby-themed party Trump threw on the eve of SNAP benefit cuts. Because nothing says “Let them eat cake” like flappers, foie gras, and 42 million Americans wondering how they’ll eat next week.Next up: That

2025/10/31

This week on The Final Word, we’re asking the real question: How do you “find” $5.3 billion for troops but let 42 million Americans go hungry? It’s giving “We support the troops, but not the people who feed them.”The Congressional Budget Office says the shutdown could cost us $14 billion in permanent economic damage if it drags through November. Meanwhile, SNAP benefits are set to lapse for the first time ever, and ACA premiums are jumping 26% next year. Translation: the government’s broke, but

East Wing Down, Troops on Layaway, and HBCU Side-Eyes

Frangela: The Final Word ·

2025/10/29

This week on Something Ain’t Right, we’re serving up a hot plate of “What in the actual hell?” with a side of “You can’t make this up.”First up: billionaire Timothy Mellon gave the Pentagon $130 million to pay troops during the shutdown. Sir, are we crowdfunding the military now? Is this GoFundMe for guns?Then, a group declaring themselves to be “Black people for White supremacism” decided to roll up to an HBCU during homecoming. Spoiler: It’s giving “We brought the wrong energy to the cookout” and

No Kings, Just Beef, Bribes & Ballrooms

2025/10/24

This week on The Final Word, the streets are speaking and the message is loud: No Kings. From Paris to Pittsburgh, citizens are mobilizing like it’s a global Beyoncé tour—but instead of glitter, it’s righteous rage and cardboard signs that slap.Then we get into the man Trump pardoned for his January 6th role—who allegedly turned around and threatened to kill House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries. So much for rehabilitation. It’s giving “I learned nothing” energy.Meanwhile, Trump wants the Justice

No Kings, Just Chaos: From Kash to the Louvre

Frangela: The Final Word ·

2025/10/22

This week on Something Ain’t Right, we ask the question nobody else will: What’s wrong with “No Kings”? Nothing—except it needs a movement, a soundtrack, and maybe a few indictments. We dive into David Brooks’ piece, America Needs a Mass Movement, and honey, we agree—but not the kind that comes with merch and a memo.Then we get into Kash Patel: Did he ruin the FBI, or just pull back the curtain on a mess that was already giving “deep state but make it petty”?Meanwhile, the U.S. is out here attacking

2025/10/17

This week on The Final Word, Frangela is fired up and breaking down the latest episode of “What Fresh Hell Is This?”First, Trump signed a memo—yes, a memo—giving his administration expanded powers to repurpose unspent federal funds. We must’ve missed the part of the Constitution where laws get rewritten via sticky note.Then, as the government shutdown drags into its third week, Trump’s threatening to permanently cut more “Democrat programs.” Translation: if you need help, he’s not here for

This week on Something Ain’t Right, Frangela is coming in HOT because the chaos is nonstop and the nonsense is next-level.First up—have y’all seen Trump lately? He’s mad about not getting the Nobel Peace Prize, posting after-midnight ramblings that look like a cry for help wrapped in a typo, and making mysterious trips to Walter Reed that got us side-eyeing harder than ever. The vibes? Off. The spelling? Worse. The concern? HIGH.Then, in a plot twist no one saw coming, Marjorie Taylor Greene just

Insurrection, Shutdowns, and Birthday Brawls—Is This...

Frangela: The Final Word ·

2025/10/10

First up, Trump “floated” invoking the Insurrection Act—because apparently court orders are just suggestions now. He wants to deploy the National Guard to Democratic cities like it’s a game of Risk, and Oregon Republicans are out here posting fake images to hype it up. Photoshop and foolishness, y’all.Then we check in with Attorney General Pam Bondi, who showed up to a Senate hearing and gave nothing but insults and sneers. No answers, no accountability—just full-on Real Housewives energy.Meanwhile,

Frangela is on FIRE this week, and Something Ain’t Right is bringing the heat because the chaos is coast-to-coast and coded in all kinds of wrong.First up, we dive into the mess in Chicago, where ICE and federal agents are out here harassing, intimidating, and allegedly assaulting law-abiding citizens—especially people of color. It’s not enforcement, it’s terror tactics. And we’re not staying silent.Then we ask: what’s really up with that $20 billion financial package for Argentina? Turns out

Shutdowns, Shake-Ups, and the Comedy Sellout

2025/10/03

This week on The Final Word, Frangela is here to break down the madness with the clarity, sass, and side-eye you need to survive this hostile government takeover.First off—yes, the U.S. government is closed. Trump and the GOP refused to extend Affordable Care Act subsidies, and Democrats finally said “enough.” We unpack what a shutdown really means, what it could mean, and what Trump wants it to mean (spoiler: it’s not good).Then, in a move that’s as petty as it is unethical, the Trump

This week on Something Ain’t Right, Frangela is over it. Like, deep sigh, long stare, “is this real life?” levels of over it.First up, the Trump administration is working overtime to roll back enforcement of fair housing laws. Because apparently, making it harder for people to live with dignity is the new national pastime. We break down the policy, the impact, and the audacity.Then, in a twist of global generosity that smells like selective compassion, the U.S. is ready to extend a financial
