America’s in shutdown mode — government checks delayed, ACA lies spreading, and faith in leadership running on fumes. Nelson and Javier cut through the chaos: Republicans pushing “Obamacare for illegals,” Fox hosts calling for a “real” white-Christian military, and Trump green-lighting strikes without Congress. When power stops asking for permission, and people stop believing in the system, is it time to protest — or time to riot?

Episode Highlights

• Shutdown lies, ACA misinformation, and rising economic anxiety
• The government “collapse” conversation — survival vs. stability
• Pete Hegseth’s “real military” rant and culture-war purity tests
• Trump’s unauthorized lethal strikes and the erosion of accountability
• Political violence, retaliation rhetoric, and the dangers of escalation

Obama handed Democrats the blueprint: a sturdy coalition of young people, Black voters, suburban moderates, and college-educated whites. By 2016, the seams split, and Hillary couldn’t hold it together. Nelson & Javier unpack what it means to fight with “urgency without agency” — from RFK Jr.’s anti-vax theatrics to NATO’s shaky stare-down with Russia, to a political climate where facts take a back seat to vibes.

Episode Highlights

• RFK Jr.’s vaccine “freedom” stunt and the danger of anti-vax cosplay
• NATO, Poland, and why ignoring Russia is naïve
• How facts lost their power in U.S. politics
• Urgency without agency: the collapse of Obama’s coalition
• Why vibes are steering the ship more than science
