2710 - Deployed Sailors Are Getting Desperate; The Media's Obsession With Hasan Piker w/ Jeet Heer - The Majority Report with Sam Seder

It's Casual Friday on The Majority Report

On today's program:

Conditions on the USS Abraham Lincoln have deteriorated to the point that servicemembers are attempting to jump overboard. Food is rotting, hygiene supplies are depleted and morale is very low. Sen. Richard Blumenthal, on CNN, makes a plea to Secretary of War Pete Hegeseth to do his job and fix this horrible situation on the USS Lincoln. Hegseth denies the reporting on the conditions and thinks he can placate servicemembers by spewing effusive nonsense.

Jeet Heer, national affairs correspondent at The Nation and host of The Time of Monsters Podcast, joins the program to recap the week's news. Topics include Tuesday's primaries, the media's Hasan Piker obsession, inflation, midterm elections and more.

In the Fun Half:

Shane Gillis teaches Joe Rogan about Donald Trump's Truth Social early access scam where people can pay $100k to see his posts early and then use the info to bet on the markets.

Shane Gillis then teaches Joe Rogan about Teddy Roosevelt's Square Deal and Gillis advocates for a second version, but Rogan says that if someone tried then "they" would kill that person.

Rogan brags about the UFC White House event and Gillis expresses regret over attending the fights.

Wisconsin Democratic candidate for Governor in Wisconsin, David Crowley, gives a wishy-washy answer on the massive unpopularity of data centers in the state.

Ken Paxton tries to blame his lazy campaign for Senate in Texas on the fact his runoff with John Cornyn drained his coffers.

A "centrist" in Colorado is running as an independent against Melat Kiros but is easily exposed by crackerjack local journalist Kyle Clark as being a conservative Zionist.

Trump denies the reports of the conditions on the USS Lincoln and says that the carrier has not been deployed long enough.

all that and more.
