## Resource

It's been almost four months (!) of Donald Trump's second term and it's become nearly impossible to keep track of the president's unhinged behavior. Fortunately, Mehdi and political analyst Molly Jong-Fast, host of the 'Fast Politics' podcast, take on the task of rounding up Trump's most insane recent moments on this week's 'We're Not Kidding'. They also call out the media for its lax coverage of Trump's mental state and possible cognitive decline. Mehdi and Molly also talk about the Trump administration's repression of free speech on college campuses, compare the media coverage of Trump versus Joe Biden, and take some shots at the Republican-led Congress. "They are run by complete incompetence," Molly says.
