Freedom 250: A Faceplant Like No Other

What could possibly go wrong? Turns out... pretty much everything. This week on Ranting Out Loud, Chadrick and Producer Mike watch the Freedom 250 celebration fall apart faster than a Trump business venture. Actually, it IS one and he stole your money to do it. Allegedly. We're talking collapsing stages, empty crowds, Fox News desperately searching for somebody—anybody—to put behind their cameras, and POTUS apparently workshopping policy ideas with Theodore Roosevelt's ghost. Somewhere between the world's saddest patriotic festival and the most expensive political vanity project ever built, we also dive into Taylor Swift's reported wedding, Dolly Parton's literacy charity, democratic socialism, and why reality has officially become impossible to parody. If you've ever wondered whether America is living inside an episode of Veep written by the producers of Tiger King, your are.
