đĄ Broadcast from the edge of a dying empire: Roxanne reminds us this is a small, scrappy show without producers or backersâjust a mic, some listeners, and a router that keeps shorting out in thunderstorms. July fundraising limps forward with a $50 challenge from Charlene and the âBruce & Karen Memorial Challenge.â Power was lost the night before. Funding hole is at $1155 through July 3rd.

đď¸ Welcome to âAlligator Alcatrazâ:
A Florida immigration campâcheerfully described by MAGATs as âstormproofââfloods in its first rain. Roxanne calls it what it is: a concentration camp. Laura Loomer jokes that âalligators are guaranteed 65 million meals,â and suddenly, the math looks genocidal. -
đ§ ICE, ICE, baby⌠and not in a good way:
The âBig Beautiful Billâ makes ICE Americaâs largest domestic policing force. $45B for detention. $30B for deportation. 10,000 new agents. Even National Guard lawyers get deputized after six weeks of âtraining.â Deportations may even include U.S.-born citizens. -
đ§Ź Peter Thiel wants to live forever. Everyone else can die.
Roxanne tears into Thielâs transhumanist nonsense and his ignorance of trans healthcare. A man who could feed the world decides instead to play God with bad code. -
đ§ RFK Jr. vs. Reality:
âWhalehead Dead Bear Brainwormâ now controls vaccine policy. He doesnât believe in experts, prefers AI to human doctors, and once told grassroots climate activists that fracking was the future. Heâs anti-science, anti-vax, and possibly anti-oxygen. -
đłď¸ Democracy? Cute idea. Letâs kill it.
Georgia GOP installs conspiracy theorists on election boards ahead of 2026. Roxanne warns: they plan to refuse certifications, suppress votes, and crown kings. -
đ July 4th, or July 2nd? Who cares.
Independence Day technically started July 2. Roxanne says thereâs not much to celebrate either way. âThe cruelty isnât a side effect. Itâs the whole damn product.â -
đ ď¸ Stochastic Terrorism & âLone Wolvesâ
FBI warns of attacks over the holiday. Vague warnings. Right-wing language. Usual suspects. Roxanne wonders if the goal is safetyâor fear itself. -
𩺠17 million set to lose Medicaid
State-by-state lists of future dead are read like obituary bingo. Most live in MAGAT territory. Still, their senators smile and vote yes. -
đş âFox News is TV-Rwandaâ
The host torches the corporate press for enabling fascism. She warns: those who seek power for its own sake are the most unfit to wield it. -
đ Pets > Politicians
Despair is real. A listener writes in barely holding on. Roxanne says: take a break, feel it, then get mad again. Also: hug your dog. Dogs donât gaslight. Dogs donât deport. -
𪧠Final Words
âWe keep going. Because they want us to stop.â
The landscape is grim, the air smells like sulfur and fraud, and yetâhere we are. Still telling the truth. Still cooking ribs. Still alive.
