This week, Josh and David examine how normalized hate speech endangers everyday people while elite-focused incidents dominate headlines. They call out Alabama’s “big gambling” hypocrisy, defend the Poarch Band of Creek Indians’ broader economic impact, and contrast it with corporate harm. They debunk Trump’s Tylenol/autism and “Amish don’t have autism” claims, explore outrage fatigue, and discuss the politicized spectacle at Charlie Kirk’s memorial—juxtaposing the widow’s forgiveness with Stephen Miller and Trump’s grievance politics.

Alabama Democratic Party Vice Chair Tabitha Isner unpacks her “Hall Pass for Hate” op-ed, why “divisive concepts” bans are incoherent, and how speech that incites violence should be confronted. She diagnoses the party’s core issues: top-level paranoia, poor communication, and a choked candidate pipeline — despite hundreds expressing interest.

Dr. Candice Duvieilh, a candidate for Alabama's 5th Congressional District, makes a policy-first case for Congress: coordinating federal-local fixes for North Alabama’s infrastructure, water systems, transit, and Arsenal access — work she says Rep. Dale Strong isn’t doing beyond photo ops and Space Command spin.

Finally, this week's Right Wing Bonehead of the Week: Stephen Miller, for historically illiterate, exclusionary rhetoric at Kirk’s memorial. And the costly GSA firings-and-rehirings fiasco.
