The plot thickens. The standards don’t. From the new press secretary’s stumble-and-fumble debut to Abdul El-Sayed’s debate and James Talarico’s town hall, we’re unpacking who showed up, who showed out, and who needs their script rewritten. Plus: the raid on Ilhan Omar’s home, the reported push to strip her citizenship and deport her, and Trump’s diesel deal with Putin... because apparently “America First” comes with a Russian fuel surcharge. Political theater. Selective righteousness. And enough hypocrisy to keep the writers’ room employed indefinitely. Join us for faith, politics, sanity, and straight truth with no chaser.

What happens when presidents threaten the democracy they’re sworn to protect? Dillon and Desimber welcome constitutional scholar Corey Brettschneider, host of The Oath and the Office, for a timely conversation about presidential power, constitutional accountability, and the people who push back. Drawing from his book, The Presidents and the People, we’ll explore lessons from past presidential abuses, examine today’s headlines through a constitutional lens, and ask what “We the People” can do when democratic safeguards are tested.

Dillon and Desimber break down the battle over media, messaging, and political power. We’re talking Trump’s failed attempt to ban major news outlets from White House access, the launch of Trump TV and the growing debate over government-controlled media, plus new polling showing serious warning signs for Republicans ahead of the 2026 midterms. What does this mean for press freedom, the GOP, and the possibility of a major Democratic shift in Congress?

Everybody's got something to say about James Talarico needing to EARN the Black vote. Fair question. But does that same standard apply to Jasmine Crockett and State Rep. Venton Jones? Because apparently, Chris Brown gets congressional recognition, while the pastors, activists, educators, and nonprofits doing the work in Crockett's own district aren't getting the same spotlight! We're talking about an artist with a documented domestic violence conviction and a history of controversy over lyrics criticized for perpetuating colorism. And THIS is who we're celebrating as Black joy? Meanwhile, Jones has apologized, and the debate over political accountability continues. In this edition of AND ANOTHER THING…, Desimber Rose asks: Who gets to represent Black excellence? Who gets the flowers? Who's entitled to Black Support? And if Black voters' trust must be earned, shouldn't every elected official be held to the same standard?
