The Dudes open on the concert ticket racket — dynamic pricing and the gap between face value and what a seat costs — that turns into John Mellencamp walking off stage in Toledo. Crowd wanted songs. He wanted etiquette and a political detour. He threatened to cut ten songs and left. Same tour he’s been using “Pink Houses” to call the Gulf of America rename a “stupid fucking idea.”

Later, the fellas break down the freakout over Trump’s Nebraska line. At a Grand Island rally he said higher gas prices are a small price for stopping a nuclear Iran: “They can take out a city. Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego.” Newsom called it deranged. The White House said the point was what a nuclear Iran could have done if it hadn’t been stopped. From there it’s the Cornell 7. Jane Doe’s September lawsuit alleges she was plied with alcohol and ketamine and gang-raped by seven Chi Phi members in October 2024. Unsealed Title IX records and a campus police transcript where she said “I can say with 100% confidence I was raped.” Tompkins County DA reopened the case. Gov. Hochul appointed Letitia James special prosecutor. The seven named men deny it.

The guys close on the USAID cut. Roughly 83 percent of programs terminated, the rest folded into State. Critics count the lost aid. The fellas count the DEI grants and EcoHealth money. Then Bill Gates on contrails: the lines behind planes are just clouds, not chemtrails, formed when water freezes on soot. Persistent ones cause about half of aviation’s warming. Same man who funds solar dimming. They wrap on Jeff Bezos. Blue Origin’s latest round lifted him to second-richest, north of $368 billion. Rockets, Miami, and talking AI three-day workweeks. The life the other billionaires are supposed to want.
