## Resource

America is out here cosplaying global supercop again, and the funniest part is they don’t even understand the shit they’re breaking. This week the JAAM digs into how U.S. leaders keep stumbling into international disasters with the confidence of a man who can’t read but insists he “gets the vibes.” We talk Venezuela, the “drug boat” lies, the propaganda videos nobody asked for, and the media gremlins trying to sell regime change like it’s a Black Friday sale. It’s empire, but dumb. Empire, but unserious. Empire run by people who still think socialism is a haunted house. Plus all the chaos you expect: quarter-zip cults, Nike Tech slander, Chicago’s tax mess, Starbucks settlements, Shedeur’s shaky debut, Sabrina Carpenter ethering the deportation video, and whatever else we yelled about before remembering the world is on fire. Welcome to The Ignorance of Empire. Grab a plate. America cooked itself. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
