There's a question that keeps hanging in the air: if the left is always supposed to champion the oppressed, why are they nowhere when Iranians are risking everything in the streets against a brutal regime? We walk through how fast certain activists can mobilize for the cause of the week, and then go totally quiet when the moment doesn’t fit their political script—especially when Trump is publicly siding with the protesters.

Then Zeoli gets into the ACLU’s messaging blitz around the Supreme Court and sports, and why the whole “it’s about freedom” pitch feels like a bait-and-switch. We talk about how Title IX is supposed to protect women’s sports, why the argument keeps expanding past athletics into doomsday claims about civil rights, and why celebrity-heavy activism so often lands with a thud outside the gated-community bubble.

The street chaos around ICE seems new. Zeoli compares it with what Democrats themselves said—and did—under Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. We hit the White House exchange about Trump “canceling the election” (and why the mechanics make the panic look absurd), the current protest theatrics, and how the party’s base shift toward the faculty-lounge crowd drives candidates into more extreme postures. We also take on the “Epstein” messaging play, the pushback to an OnlyFans “sin tax” plan in Florida, and the disgust factor around lawmakers trading stocks while regular people feel like they’re locked out of the system.
