Season 6, Episode 6 - voters can't answer basic general knowledge questions, wasteful spending uncovered, bogus government payments, government donations to political campaigns, and much more!

In this week's podcast, our stupidest thing I've heard all week segment features several clips of voting-age young people who can't answer simple questions like "What is the capital of the United States?" or "How many weeks are in a year?" We follow up that stupidity with examples of stupid & wasteful spending of your tax dollars uncovered by the new DOGE team. We add to that government stupidity by telling you how many bogus payments highly paid US Treasury "Payment approval officers" have blocked in the past decade. If you guessed a number higher than ZERO, you guessed too high. We'll tell you how many taxpayer dollars were donated to Bernie Sanders's 2016 Presidential campaign committee and ask why any government agency should donate any money to any political candidate's campaign fund. We play a satirical clip of a young boy participating in a spelling bee competition. The boy asks the judges for the definition of the word he has been asked to spell: "Woman." We'll tell you about a deal that our new Secretary of State has struck with the President of El Salvador, which could involve El Salvador providing prison services for up to 40,000 US criminals & illegal aliens at a fraction of the $80,000 per year per inmate cost our government currently spends to incarcerate a federal prisoner. Our taxpayer relief shot comes to us from Philadelphia. Here, a 60-year-old homeowner shoots & kills a man who broke into his home at 11:00 p.m.
