GOP Bull-Schmitt
Summary
Hosts John Iadarola and Sharon Read discuss the reopening of the Cornell sexual assault case, noting that celebrity pressure forced action despite institutional failures. They mock Senator Eric Schmitt’s failed attempt to impeach Jack Smith, which backfired when Smith revealed he was attending a Caitlin Clark game, not the Atlanta Hawks. The episode also covers Trump’s "morally binding" AI agreement with tech CEOs, which the hosts dismiss as a sham, and criticizes Pete Hegseth’s plans to cut military leadership and eliminate faculty tenure to suppress dissent.
