Reparations for Insurrectionists? But Not for Descendants of Slaves? Make It Make Sense

Alright babies, gather ‘round, because this week on Something Ain’t Right we are pouring ourselves a tall glass of “excuse me, WHAT now?” and sipping it slow.First up, France — yes, France — is out here making moves. President Macron has cracked the door open on reparations for slavery, and we’re over here blinking like, “Did Europe just lap the United States on moral clarity. . . again?” Because meanwhile, back home…President Trump’s shiny new ‘anti‑weaponization’ fund is looking to a whole lot of folks like a payout plan for violent insurrectionists and white supremacists. New York officials, feeling the political breeze blowing straight from the Trump administration, have decided to push their long‑awaited slavery reparations report all the way to 2029. Because apparently the rush to address 400 years of injustice was just too much pressure. Take your time, y’all. No one’s waiting or anything.Finally, we take a moment — a real one — to honor the passion, brilliance, and legacy of Barney Frank. A man whose intelligence, humor, and commitment to justice shaped policy and inspired generations. We mourn, we celebrate, and we tell the truth: the world was better with him in it.It’s sharp, it’s funny, it’s furious, and it’s full of love — just like us.Become a Frangela patron at Patreon.com and get three exclusive Micro Idiot podcasts each week as our thank you for your support.
