## Resource

Conservatives continue to be incredibly unserious. Instead of getting us out of an unnecessary war with Iran, they’re posting fanfic and corny slop on the White House Twitter account. The Iran war rages on! And the boys are here to cover it. They also take time to cover the upcoming and already delivered decisions of this SCOTUS term with devastating implications for how many political ads we might be seeing in the near future. Ken Martin continues to be in the news, but this time it's for chatter about him losing his position as DNC chair.
