Marjorie's Apologies and Hegseth's Fragility w/ John Hastings & Jasper Craven (Ep 308)

What makes an unrepentant misogynist? This is the question we dig into with reporter Jasper Craven as we go down the rabbit hole of Pete Hegseth’s twisted military mind and the coming ‘Forever War’ in Venezuela.  Then the House votes to release the Epstein files, which includes wild text messages from Epstein to a Democratic lawmaker that show how much he was working to undermine Trump. Trump off’ed him! Come on! We unpack the latest from the Epstein saga with comedian John Hastings, and MTG's “Sorry For Being Trash” apology tour and what she really wants out of all of this.  Plus, why can’t politicians from either side of the pond speak to immigration in a way that humanizes immigrants!? Then, Francesca interviews journalist Jasper Craven about his writing about Pete Hegseth's lore and what his story tells us about American masculinity and the military. Plus, just how many wars are we getting into?  Featuring: John Hastings, comedian (04:48) Watch his special here A SOMEWHAT SPECIAL AT THE MALL https://youtu.be/l1g6r7OXwt8?si=rRyOFofPKrA-vS-5  Jasper Craven, reporter (1:01:10) https://x.com/Jasper_Craven Read Jasper's breakdown of Pete Hegseth here: https://thebaffler.com/salvos/battle-of-the-sexes-craven Get 20% off SUNSET LAKE CBD with code FRANTIFA at check out.
