Episode 46: About Biden's Bailouts and Tucker's January 6th Footage

March 16th, 2023  |  1 hr 38 mins

Today on the We're Not Wrong Podcast, Justin, Jen and Andrew discuss:

Biden's bailout of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank after they collapsed in the 2nd and 3rd largest bank failures in US history. Biden promised taxpayer money would not be used and that bank leadership would be fired.

Was this a bailout? Did Biden do the right thing?

Also, Tucker Carlson aired unseen footage from January 6th, including:

Footage of Jacob Chansley being led into the Capitol by police. Carlson claims this shows police helped rioters, though Capitol Police criticized this conclusion.

Footage of Officer Brian Sicknick directing rioters.

Should this footage have been aired? Was it misleading?

Episode 45: About The DC Crime Bill and Daylight Saving Time

March 9th, 2023  |  1 hr 14 mins

Congress is poised to overturn a DC law updating the city’s criminal code for the first time in 30 years. The law reduced jail time for some violent crimes, angering Republicans. Although DC’s council chair tried to withdraw the law, the Senate will vote to disapprove it after the House did. Biden signaled he would not veto the bill, allowing vulnerable Senate Democrats to support it. Should congress overturn DC's ability to rule itself?

Daylight Saving Time will spring ahead this Saturday after attempts to kill it in the Senate last year failed. Should this be abolished once and for all?

Episode 44: About Ron DeSantis and Fox News v. Dominion

March 2nd, 2023  |  1 hr 8 mins

LIVE FROM SAN FRANCISCO

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis gained power over Reedy Creek Improvement District, where Walt Disney World is located. Disney has controlled it since the 1960s. DeSantis targeted the district when Disney opposed a bill he supported, known as the “Don’t Say Gay” bill. The bill's core is the appointment of a five-person state board to oversee municipal services, such as fire protection and road maintenance, where Disney World operates. The board can raise revenue to fund services and pay off Disney's debts. DeSantis stressed that under the new structure, Disney would still be responsible for its municipal debts, and local governments would not raise taxes. Is this corporatism reigned in or government tyranny?

Also... voting machine manufacturer Dominion is suing Fox News for $1.6 billion over allegedly false reporting on its software. Recent testimony from Rupert Murdoch, founder of the conservative news network, revealed that Fox hosts like Sean Hannity and Jeanine Pirro "endorsed" the claim that the 2020 election was stolen. In text messages between Fox News employees, Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, and Laura Ingraham insulted and mocked Trump advisers Sidney Powell and Rudolph W. Giuliani. The messages suggest that even Rupert Murdoch, Fox Corporation's chairman, thought Trump's voter fraud claims were "really crazy stuff." Will Fox have to pay?

Episode 43: About a National Divorce and Project Veritas

February 23rd, 2023  |  1 hr 54 mins

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene recently called for separating the US into red and blue states and shrinking the federal government. Proponents argue this would address political and cultural differences, but critics note the challenges of determining state boundaries and allocating resources.
Meanwhile, James O'Keefe, founder of conservative group Project Veritas, announced he is leaving the organization amid conflict with its board of directors. Project Veritas is known for undercover sting operations targeting liberal groups. O'Keefe claimed he was pushed out after Veritas broke a major story about Pfizer. However, the board cited concerns about O'Keefe's spending of nonprofit funds. O'Keefe's departure raises questions about Project Veritas's future direction and legal standing.
Are we all going to be children of a National Divorce? What's the legacy of Project Veritas? The crew break it down!

Episode 42: About the East Palestine Derailment and Chinese Spying UFOs

February 15th, 2023  |  1 hr 37 mins

In this episode a train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio caused an explosion and the release of hazardous chemicals into the air. Emergency crews conducted a controlled burn of the chemicals, resulting in the evacuation of residents within a 1 mi radius. Calls of a government and media blackout abound.

Also: on Sunday, a U.S. fighter jet shot down an unidentified object over Lake Huron on orders from President Joe Biden, the fourth such downing in eight days. This is part of a heightened alert following a spy balloon from China that emerged over U.S. airspace in late January. Federal officials briefed senators on Tuesday, and the National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said that the objects shot down were not part of the PRC spying program or any kind of intelligence collection against the U.S., nor of alien origin.

Episode 40: About Justin Roiland and Hunter Biden

February 2nd, 2023  |  1 hr 29 mins

In this episode we discuss Justin Roiland, co-creator of the Emmy-winning show Rick and Morty, being removed from creative duties on the show and dropped from a deal with Hulu for his shows Solar Opposites and Koala Man. This follows a felony domestic violence charge in May 2020, obscenity-filled DMs sent to fans, including underage girls, and allegations of sexual misconduct. Roiland has pleaded not guilty to the charges and his lawyer says he looks forward to clearing his name.

Also, Hunter Biden's allies have discussed creating a legal-defense fund to pay for a team of attorneys to help him with a federal tax investigation and congressional inquiries. Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.) has requested information from the owner of the SoHo gallery that has marketed paintings by Hunter Biden. Forming a defense fund is a common way to raise money for legal defense, but the disclosures may raise questions about who is donating and whether they are doing so to gain favor with the White House.

Episode 39: About George Santos and Alec Baldwin

January 26th, 2023  |  1 hr 37 mins

Congressman George Santos of New York's 3rd District is facing allegations of lying about his Jewish heritage, personal wealth, education, name, and more, as well as pictures and videos of him allegedly performing as a drag queen. He has denied the drag queen allegations, but Wikipedia records show a user with his alias edited his own biography to include that he "started his 'stage' life as a gay night club DRAG QUEEN" at age 17. Santos may have been editing his own Wikipedia page up until late last year.

Alec Baldwin and the armorer in charge of weapons on the set of the Western movie "Rust" have been charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter for the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, while the first assistant director has agreed to plead guilty to negligent use of a deadly weapon. If convicted, Baldwin and the armorer could face up to five years in jail.
