TACOs, DOGE Disappointments, and the Executive Branch Fire Sale—Everything's for Sale

This week on The Final Word, we explore the latest reason to love TACOs—not the delicious kind, but the investor shorthand for Trump Always Chickens Out. Whether it’s trade wars or policy stances, TACOs are always on the menu.Meanwhile, Elon Musk is reportedly disappointed in the GOP spending bill, claiming it inflates the deficit and undermines the work of the DOGE team. Which raises two important questions: Is this Musk’s please-like-me-again tour, and does he really think DOGE does work?Then, in the further monetization of the Executive Branch, Trump unleashes a wave of politically convenient pardons, including Todd and Julie Chrisley and a floating offer to two men convicted of plotting to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer. Who says money can't buy happiness? Well, it can buy freedom in Trump’s America.And if you weren’t already worried about RFK Jr. running the Department of Health and Human Services, buckle up. He’s now hinting at banning government scientists from publishing in top medical journals. Science? Who needs it!We digest the absurdity so you don’t have to on The Final Word.Do you want to hear more Idiots of the Week??
