First up is "Karen" (aka Debra Baber) from Ventura, CA.  The Boys are spilling the tea on her speech to the City Council about face masks and her "stirring" rendition of God Bless America. See the video here ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1nDeFsp3rU)   Then it's off to Queens, NY where "Karen" is upset to be called out in a restaurant for not wearing a required face mask.  The comments were made by a couple awaiting their sandwiches and things get crazy!  Check out the videro here-- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ClwUncyW2pY   Finally, Mark & Casey are catching up on "Officer Karen" who stopped by the drive through on her way home from working and was having a moment.

In other POTUS news, attendees for the rally will have to sign a waiver to not sue or hold POTUS accountable for contracting the coronavirus; he also has trouble exiting the stage from West Point graduation, shuffling down the ramp (missed it?? check out the video -- https://www.nytimes.com/video/us/politics/100000007190494/trump-ramp-west-point-speech.html.  Next up The Boys are discussing the SCOTUS decisions of LGBTQ jobs protections and DACA program.  In both decisions, the current administration was on the wrong side of history, stating they believe employers should be able to fire employees for being LGBTQ under the law and DACA was infamously halted resulting in detainees separated from families.  Last up, a Nebraska candidate for Congress believes he cannot sexually harass a woman because he is gay.AND... we have a viewer feedback and it's EXPLOSIVE!  Mark presents the recorded message to Casey on-air for his reactions and response and it does not disappoint!This one is a goodie!
