Starting point is 00:00:00 Hi, hello, good morning, good afternoon, good evening. Welcome back to even more news. Monday, Monday, the first and only Monday cast pod. Katie Stoll is Zy. And me, hello, I'm Cody. Thank you so much for that beautiful introduction. I'm continuing it by saying hello. Good morning, regards, dear everybody. Good morning, regards. Salutations, okay.
Starting point is 00:00:50 Hi, I'm Cody, what's up? How's it going? Jonathan is also here. Awesome. Hi, I'm thrilled to be part of this part of the show and not the first 30 seconds of the show. Stuff happened this past weekend and we are gonna talk about it.
Starting point is 00:01:05 Dun dun dun. There sure was news. Yeah, I feel like we go back and forth between evil weeks and stupid weeks. We've had a few evil weeks in a row and so we might be having a vibe shift to stupid because there's another signal chat leak, not a leak, but there was a second signal chat where Pete Hegseth,
Starting point is 00:01:26 the Secretary of Defense, was posting attack plans, the same attack plans that he shared to the other chat. It was the same right, yeah. We didn't wanna make his family feel left out. He created a signal chat called Defense Team Huddle before he was confirmed as Defense Secretary. And so they were huddling on how
Starting point is 00:01:46 to make sure. The defense team, I'm sorry. But like it was to get him confirmed. Like this is the team, including my wife, brother, lawyer and other people who are like, we're pushing for Pete Hegseth to become the secretary of defense. And that signal chat continued to exist. And so right around the same time, those attack plans were being posted in the other signal chat with Rubio and all the others, he posted the same stuff, and it's unclear if it was
Starting point is 00:02:12 a mistake, because he saw Defense Team Huddle and thought it was that, or if he's just like, this is my first big bombing, this is really cool, maybe my wife will be like, good job, honey, you're blowing the people up from how many thousands of miles away? Six? Cool. Maybe there's just such severe trust issues
Starting point is 00:02:32 in their relationship that part of their deal with their couples counselor was like, you really have to share everything with her. She can't have any secrets and that includes national security secrets. I completely expect that every secretary of defense has told his wife when stuff's gonna happen in person at home. Right?
Starting point is 00:02:52 Like I don't say that I don't, but I hear you at least in the conversation. Maybe if you're going to do it, make sure your house isn't wired. I want it to be known that I would tell my wife about an imminent attack. She would know before anyone else. Okay, well if anybody is considering hiring Jonathan Harris as their defense secretary, perhaps. But also his brother was there. Yeah, his brother.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Would you share it with your brother? Oh no, no. He wouldn't keep that to himself. That's going everywhere. That's on a podcast in a couple hours. We love your brother. Oh no, no. He wouldn't keep that to himself. That's on a podcast in a couple hours. We love your brother. That's never. Yeah. Okay, what other information?
Starting point is 00:03:32 Well, this chat was definitely on his personal phone instead of a secure government phone that they give you to do this kind of stuff in. So it's just more amateur hour bullshit. Is he responding to this report well, or is he maybe yelling on the White House lawn erratically? You mean with contrition? Mmm. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:03:56 So I'm just going to play a brief clip right here. Pay attention to when he shifts his head around six seconds in. It's very important. You will see that he has, this is not the story, but he has one sideburn that's longer than the other. Do you want to say, sir, about the signal chat controversy? You know, what a big surprise that a bunch of, a few leakers get fired and suddenly a bunch of hit pieces come out from the same media that peddled the Russia hoax, won't give back their Pulitzers. They got Pulitzers for a bunch of lies.
Starting point is 00:04:25 Pulitzers for a bunch of lies, and on hoaxes, time and time and time again. And as they peddle those lies, no one ever calls them on it. See, this is what the media does. They take anonymous sources from disgruntled former employees, and then they try to slash and burn people, and ruin their reputations not gonna work with me because we're changing the Defense Department
Starting point is 00:04:49 Putting the Pentagon back in the hands of warfighters and anonymous smears from disgruntled former employees on old news Doesn't matter. I thought they were anti-war. Why do they want to put in charge put warfighters in charge? We're not fighting wars. Well, because the military a few months ago was all DEI people, don't you know? Right. And now we're putting war fighters, which I guess he just means white men. I think he just means white men.
Starting point is 00:05:17 Yes. Straight white men. Yeah, if there is a book about Rosie the Riveter in the Naval Library, it's gone now. Fuck that bitch. This guy, they're of course doing the same thing by saying, oh, these were not, this was not classified information. The same exact argument of a month ago, Trump is backing him up and asking everyone else
Starting point is 00:05:38 in the administration to back him up. But this follows a week of reporting that the Pentagon was in disarray, that there's infighting, backstabbing, a bunch of people were just let go. Senior staff was just let go. Maybe they're the cause of this leak, we don't know. But it doesn't seem like he's a good manager. He hired, to be clear. Like, it's not like, oh, like I've seen people,
Starting point is 00:06:01 like, oh, he's just getting rid of the woke Biden folks down there. No, no, no, no, no, these were his people that he wanted to work for him. It's, yeah, he seems kind of a mess. I wonder if there were any signs or concerns about that early on. I just wanna have to point out that, so the Democrats Twitter account, Pete Hegseth needs to go
Starting point is 00:06:27 Just standard seems like maybe he maybe he should have to go and he responded at I was only like 8 p.m. That's fine Your agenda is illegals trans and DEI all of which are no longer allowed at the Department of Defense And everyone's like dunk. Oh my God, the Dunkmaster is back in town. And it's such a weird thing to praise, like such boilerplate, like you like DEI. Excellent point, man. Great dunk there. But then the Democrats responded.
Starting point is 00:07:00 Pete's POV. And it's a picture of an iPhone screen, but it's real blurry With all the apps up it is really really really blurry. It's pretty funny And you see all these MAGA guys with like Trump assassination photos as their profile photos like oh So like you're making fun of like addicts now and like oh, so like now you're like insulting people. They're so offended It's very um I thought I thought comedy was legal again. I thought we were like what? Yeah, if the guy wasn't secretary of defense
Starting point is 00:07:33 and accidentally texted his coworker when he meant to text his wife, love you, then it would be offensive to be like, you drunk piece of shit. But in this context, I think comedy is legal again. Again, and this week in Hypocrisy Corner, it's just so fucking shocking to me. And it shouldn't be.
Starting point is 00:07:52 But also, I'm glad that I still can be shocked. OK, just really thinking out loud here. Though, oops, they jumped through the justifications, the defense when it goes without saying, but I'm going to say it, you would be losing your mind if it was reversed, if it was anybody else. You know, what is this? This is this is fun. Shapiro retweeted Jordan. I don't know, Shaq, whatever. Pete Hegseth is making shawarma of the Houthis, restoring the greatness of the US military
Starting point is 00:08:27 and purging radical ideology from within the Pentagon. The corporate media and their allies in politics wanted to defeat him because sec-def is very good at his job. Citation needed. Did they make a like a Middle Eastern food joke? Yeah. Like he's making shawarma, is that what it said?
Starting point is 00:08:44 That's what it said. He's grinding the people up. Listen, if we get comedy back, I guess they do too. You know, can't go after them for that. Yeah, then we'd have to be the stars of Hypocrisy Corner. Look, I do think, because we've talked about the renditions to El Salvador a lot lately, and we're gonna keep talking about that because it's still very prominent. And I think it's still very prominent.
Starting point is 00:09:06 And I think it's just important to point out that this is amateur hour, that this is not what you expect from people at the highest echelons of government who are doing these very classified things or sharing classified information. I wish the bombings weren't happening at all, but if they're happening, you would hope, you would hope that they are being handled
Starting point is 00:09:31 with some amount of precision. Yeah, that's the, I mean, you're talking, wait, so you're not talking about the sideburn thing, okay. No. Yeah, no. That too though, Cody, that too. You would hope it would be handled with some amount of precision.
Starting point is 00:09:44 And that's the part of it too, like and that's even with the, you know, people trying to make this point of like, well Donald Trump, like all these other presidents did deportations but they didn't have any injunctions. It's like Trump has them because you just hate Donald Trump. It's like, well no, he's doing it illegally. He's doing it poorly.
Starting point is 00:10:02 He's doing it incompetently. And so all these people are suffering who shouldn't be. Anything that America does that sucks that they're going to do anyway, if you do it inefficiently or not inefficiently, but like incompetently, then more people are going to suffer. You're going to kill more civilians.
Starting point is 00:10:22 You're going to leak things to your brother and your wife, like all these things, those make those bad things worse. So it's just a weird situation to be in where it's like, yeah, they shouldn't be doing that, but like, I wish they did it better because then other people, like more people wouldn't suffer. We can hold space for all of these realities. We don't like this, but like if we're gonna do it, this is, it is a national embarrassment.
Starting point is 00:10:50 International, like this is fucking clown show. It makes us look very, very weak and disorganized and bad and like, yeah. We have a level of expectation about our murder around the globe, right? And I think the illegal renditions are more important than this. But this stuff just makes you realize what like the kind of people we're dealing with, right? That you are not serious people.
Starting point is 00:11:19 Right. Because also, like, as you hear you hear them, you hear him talk about it, whether it's Hegseth or V Vance, or Trump, whoever. They are warmongers. They're erratic and they're building towards more military campaigns. So it is just this, I don't know, watch that clip again of him on Easter Monday, I guess. Just like, he's just like a wild erratic man and like the looking into the camera is very odd. It makes me deeply uncomfortable. It's very unsettling.
Starting point is 00:11:54 Part of it is probably from his just Fox News days and that's where he's most comfortable, but it is odd and makes him seem less serious or like responsible. I don't know, it's just a very odd behavior. When you're on Fox News, when you're a Fox News Weekend host, it's your job to look in the camera.
Starting point is 00:12:13 When you're a Secretary of Defense being interviewed, you look at the person who's asking you the question and give them the answer. It's very weird to say, I'm gonna talk to the American people right now and saying, we're got all this DEI out of the Pentagon, so what's your problem? Yeah, it's very performative. And like, you know, that's one of the reasons he was appointed, because Trump is a TV president
Starting point is 00:12:34 and he only wants people. That's why you have Kristi Noem. That's why you have all these people cosplaying in their little roles and doing like the performance instead of the actual job. Tom Homan, the Borders are, they trot out on the Sunday news shows every week just to say, we're following the law, this is, we're just doing what the Alien Enemies Act says. And he can, I find him very uncomfortable to watch. He can't speak well.
Starting point is 00:13:04 And I think it's just the way his voice sounds and the way he looks to watch. He can't speak well. And I think it's just the way his voice sounds and the way he looks to me. So I'm not like making a comment about anything. But like, I just like all of these people lying directly to the camera. It makes you feel more uncomfortable than if they're just lying to a reporter standing off camera. Yeah, it's very yeah. It's such a reality. Yeah, it's a game show type stuff. And it's very, yeah. It's such a reality, it's a game show type stuff. And it's, yeah, it's just unsettling and kind of dystopian and odd. 101 of, well, it's not acting, but in general.
Starting point is 00:13:33 Yeah, I could see the Fox News host, you deliver it down the pipe. We try to arrange our eyelines when we're reading the prompter and hosting the show. But other than that, you're told not to spike the camera. You're told that you don't look as tricky as the camera. Well, he that you don't look at the camera. He's not a streamer.
Starting point is 00:13:47 It's not like, hey, chat, what's good? No, I don't know. It's very odd. Supreme Court, yes. This is an interesting one, because even some of the cynical Supreme Court analysts that I read were like, this is maybe a potential good sign that they got bumped by this.
Starting point is 00:14:07 So what happened is the Supreme Court on late Friday night ordered seven to two that a bunch of people who were about to get shipped on a plane to El Salvador can't leave. They kind of reiterated the, there's a due process thing until we can rule on some of this alien enemies act stuff. They are not to leave. And it was only Alito and Thomas who dissented. Alito came out with his dissent the next day, which was a bunch of technicalities. We may not have
Starting point is 00:14:35 had jurisdiction to rule on this, but the general vibe that I got from some of these Supreme Court analysts is that Trump's brazen flouting of the previous order to not ship people to El Salvador kind of rubbed them the wrong way and maybe even freaked them out a little bit. Yeah. That was my reaction when I saw the headline went, oh God, without even, I'm like, well, this is, we're pushing it forward. Why else would you do this in the middle of the weekend?
Starting point is 00:15:04 I mean, they found out I think from from ACLU lawsuits only a few hours before hey, this is happening They're gonna just ignore you and do this imminently So Gorsuch and Roberts and Kavanagh and Barrett even were like, alright, let's try to reassert ourselves It was pretty astounding actually to me. I was like, wow, that's amazing. But of course, it's being received in the way you would expect it would be received, which is a bunch of people parsing it out. It seems like a lot of people in the court are like, you gave us this job, but now you won't let us do it. Like, you know, like the whole, his whole term was like, yeah,
Starting point is 00:15:46 like we got the Supreme Court now, we won, but he's not paying attention to them. He's ignoring them. He's taking away all their power. So they're trying at least to be like, but we're real. We're a real institution that you have to listen to. Unless. I do think this is breaking through to people
Starting point is 00:16:04 in a way that we're not quite seeing reported or covered or starting to perhaps, I had a conversation with somebody up here who was like really upset, really upset about the illegal, they used the word disappearing, you know? And it wasn't somebody that you would expect. And so I was like, you know,
Starting point is 00:16:25 we've complained a lot about, I wish people would care about things other than let's say the tariffs, which I, good, care about the tariffs, care about how that's affecting your businesses, but this stuff is starting to break through because it is so fucking un-American. Yeah, and it's also like,
Starting point is 00:16:43 it's what they said they were gonna do all along. It's fairly really clear, but it's good to come around. And I've seen, you know, I've seen like a lot of like, centrist and the glaciers of the world being like, but like Trump is like, his numbers are pretty good on immigration and everything else is bad. So maybe like pick your battles.
Starting point is 00:16:59 And it's like very, I don't know, it's very silly to me, aside from the moral clarity that one should have about such things and how this is like very, I don't know, it's very silly to me, aside from the moral clarity that one should have about such things and how this is actually very, very important to focus on. Aside from that, yeah, people are pissed about the tariffs anyway, already. His numbers there are already down. Ideally, his numbers are down on all topics.
Starting point is 00:17:20 So you harp on this and you point it out every day so that people like Katie you're talking about are like, oh yeah, they are disappearing people and they are ignoring the Supreme Court. They are like, that is bad to bring all of his numbers down instead of being like, well, people are mad at the pair so just talk about that. I do not think this is a losing argument.
Starting point is 00:17:38 I do not think that that hurts Democrats falling into some trap. This is just basic human rights. A breaking news as we're recording. Breaking news. Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba. Breaking news, NPR is reporting that it has learned that the White House has begun the search
Starting point is 00:17:55 for a new Secretary of Defense. Ah, okay. They'll all deny that and maybe he'll, you know, Trump changes his mind on a dime. Like when it's reported, he'll be like, this makes me look weak, so maybe I'll change you know, Trump changes his mind on a dime. Like when it's reported, he'll be like, this makes me look weak, so maybe I'll change my mind. But. It feels like they should have been looking for one
Starting point is 00:18:10 when this story first broke. Honestly, it's probably the sideburn thing. I bet Trump saw it, he's like, this slob, he doesn't have it, you know? You know who they could bring in is esteemed general, John Kelly. Oh. Yeah, former chief of staff to Trump, so they already have a relationship. I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, This show's official recommendation. A second would be me. I'm already on a group chat with these people.
Starting point is 00:18:45 I don't know. Well, that's what I'm saying. Like your wife's already ready to go to receive sensitive information. Oh, sure. Actually could be maybe Hexeth's wife, Hexeth's brother. And like, they're already in on what's going on. I was still in the Jonathan train,
Starting point is 00:18:59 which is that they're not adverse to hiring podcasters for. Okay. So like a Benny Johnson type? Bon Geno. I'm kind of glad that not adverse to hiring podcasters for. Okay. So like a Benny Johnson type? Bongino. I'm kind of glad that our side maybe doesn't do that, our side. Although you would do it in a communications world, right?
Starting point is 00:19:14 If Biden or whoever the next democratic president, which is gonna happen. I mean, God willing, Joe Biden. But they'd be like, okay, maybe someone on my communications team can be a podcaster considering we dropped the ball on Podcasting so much and the right wing runs the podcast world, but you don't take the podcaster and put them in like Pentagon or FBI Positions. Oh, yeah, it's very very absurd. It's this it's very we're not gonna talk about but like, you know
Starting point is 00:19:40 like that all the do stuff where it's like well, you don't just like bring random people in who don't understand like the industry or the project or like the, like the department they're gutting. You want people who know that world and who have those skills. You don't just be like, I like what that guy says on Fox News, let's make him the secretary, what transportation defense? Is that the, are these the only Fox people we have?
Starting point is 00:20:07 Feel like there's more. In the cabinet so far? I mean, obviously Bongino is up there. I mean, we have people that are on there a lot, but I feel like Hegseth as an employee was, I mean, Hegseth's wife was also a producer there. So the tendrils go out, but I don't think Carolyn Levitt worked there,
Starting point is 00:20:23 but I'm sure she was on as a commentator. Yeah, but in terms of like the people, I think it's just Hegseth and then Transportation Guy. Do we want to finish talking about the Supreme Court stuff? I think we should. Probably. I think we should because they stopped this flight, this one flight with I think 10 more people, but ICE is still kind of going nuts out there
Starting point is 00:20:46 and making mistakes all over the place, detaining people who are US citizens, who happen to be brown people, detaining travelers from places like Canada and Germany and Great Britain. I think it was this two German citizens who were gonna backpack across the US and first went to Hawaii at first, but like didn't have the rest of their trip planned because they were just gonna wing it. And that is not OK in the new United States.
Starting point is 00:21:14 There was another story about a couple where the gal is Canadian and the guy is American and living in Canada. They made this whole plan trip, but she had another stop first. So her boyfriend flew early with all of her backpacking stuff so she could just travel light. And she was meeting him and they wouldn't let her in. And they grilled her and hassled her for hours and hours and hours saying that you don't have enough stuff to go backpacking.
Starting point is 00:21:45 And she was explaining and doing all this stuff and they wouldn't let her in. She missed her flight. Then they sent her back to customs and they were like, you got a long line there. And they just waved her back through the Canadian side. They're like, yeah, this has been happening all day. Yeah, it's just like this, like,
Starting point is 00:22:01 it's this intense low trust, high suspicion society that we're now in where they're just going, it's wild. Do they think you need more than a backpack to go backpacking? Well, because their trip was for, they worked for years or planned this for a long time. It was a two month thing. They had X amount of stops. So her time in the country that she was gonna come for, they're like, this is suspicious, we think you're moving here with even less stuff that you would need.
Starting point is 00:22:33 Yeah, it's just really bleak. Yeah, it's very bleak, it's also, there's just countless stories, whether it's like detaining people or sending them to this El Salvador prison. And it's hard to even like, who do you talk about? What do you talk about every single day when this happens? What is there to be done?
Starting point is 00:22:57 They don't care. And they just continue to lie. Yes, the lies, the lies. Every day, right to the camera. It is really disgusting and infuriating. I continue to lie. Yes, the lies, the lies. Every day, right to the camera, it is really disgusting and infuriating. Although, real quick, I'm so sorry, we have to, breaking news again,
Starting point is 00:23:13 even more breaking news, Carolyn Levitt says, this NPR story is total fake news based on one anonymous source who clearly has no idea what they're talking about. As the president said this morning, he stands strongly behind the Secretary of Defense. So, I believe her. They'll need to, whoever wants to get Hegseth out
Starting point is 00:23:34 is gonna have to wait until whoever wants Hegseth in has left the Oval Office, and then they'll have to rush in and convince him to do it right then. That's how this works. That's how the tariff thing worked. 3D chess. Now's the time. Yeah, this is, again, it's amateur hour.
Starting point is 00:23:48 It's a joke. It's whoever can get the, it's an audience of one, right? It's just Trump and whatever his whims are. And you gotta just, you gotta make him do it right then and there. If you want it done, you gotta make him do it right there or else someone else is gonna convince him otherwise. Maybe he'll get out there on the lawn
Starting point is 00:24:02 and take all the Easter eggs away. He'll be like, no, I want them for myself. Even though the prices are down 92% my eggs are still so expensive Yeah, of course. They're expensive. They're not down 92% he made it up. I'm just saying like every time I see Somebody saying like my like fuck off. I Know you're just surrounded by people bragging about how cheap eggs are. Cheap eggs are there, dancing around. Eggs are cheap, eggs are cheap. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:24:27 Eggs are cheap, but the disappearings are a problem. A dollar an egg isn't a cheap. Yeah, the disappearings are a problem. You know what's gonna be cheap tomorrow is peeps. You can get cheap peeps. Oh yeah. I do love a peep. Penny's on the dollar.
Starting point is 00:24:40 All right, the Pope died. Should we do Kristi Noem really quick? Poor gal lost her damn bag. Yeah, she lost her bag. She was Kristi Noem, DHS secretary was... Yeah, to be clear, secretary of the Department of Homeland Security. Yeah. Lost her bag. I left my purse at a restaurant a couple of weeks ago, and thankfully it was still there when I got back.
Starting point is 00:25:01 How much money in cash was in that purse? About two bucks. Two dollars? Well, a single two dollar bill? Well, because Kristy Noem had $3,000 in cash. Ooh, baby, too much cash to carry. Along with a driver's license, medication, apartment keys, passport, DHS access badge,
Starting point is 00:25:18 makeup bag, and blank checks, which is an interesting way to phrase that if it's just a checkbook. You wouldn't say blank checks if it was a checkbook. You'd say it was a checkbook. A blank check is very... It's like cash order. No, you have the signed check that is blank that the amount can be filled in. That's what a blank check is.
Starting point is 00:25:39 So that's maybe not a great thing to carry around. Out to dinner. Out to dinner in general. If you're gonna lose your purse, secretary of the Department of Homeland Security. I'm not sure how your purse, I mean, I know purses get stolen, but there is a certain amount of very casual behavior
Starting point is 00:26:00 that goes along with that, I would imagine, of leaving your purse somewhere where it can be stolen? Well, she didn't leave it there, I don't think. No, I know, but how did they get stolen from her, from her chair? All we know is the Secret Service reviewed security camera footage at the restaurant and saw an unknown white male wearing a medical mask steal her bag and leave the restaurant. The $3,000 in cash was supposedly used
