Episode description

What will the world’s richest man do with Twitter if and when he acquires it? Based on his text messages, some extremely stupid things. The Uvalde School Police have been nixed, and specialty police forces are proving themselves to be good at one thing: not utilizing any of their supposed extra training in a crisis. Howard Schultz is, like, super sad about all this unionizing guys. He had no idea you felt this way. And Dark Brandon Rises again with a pardon for cannabis users… but it’s not quite as dank as it sounds.
