Kriss took a bit of an impromptu break from the Insanity Check but he's back and it's like the show never left. Not only is the guest this week the same guest as the last show (Justin from ThreeFifs) but a lot of the topics are basically the same because nothing has changed (unfortunately). Topics: Happy Confederate Heritage Month: The month to celebrate losers Didn't we cover this Rep. Omar shit last show? Why is the GOP so terrible and why don't we hold them accountable? Chicago Cops beat & taser a 16 year old black girl...claim they didn't Cops are Dumb: Why charge a black woman with a felony for breaking the windows of her attacker? Ohio's "Heartbeat" bill is a test run at overturning Roe v Wade Mike Huckabee thinks LGBTQ rights are the biggest threat to the US Don't use gas to dry a baseball field Great Moments in White Privilege Aunt Becky didn't take them fed charges seriously Roger Stone is broke down & Trump won't answer his calls Guest: Justin - @LJay90 ThreeFifsPodcast.com Like what you hear?
