Description: Today's first hour is built around a theme of media incompetence and Democrat corruption/waste. CNN does more investigative work to test the algae in the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool than they ever critically investigated Covid. Or Joe Biden's mental collapse. Or Hunter's laptop. Gavin Newsom and Jennifer Newsom are politically and financially exposed through donor relationships, charity compensation, and possible whistleblower fallout. Democrats clutching their pearls over the cost of the Iran conflict don't mind the $800 million on Obama's Library and the contractors who have not been paid.
