DMV: Steve Hilton Pledges to Abolish California’s DMV Sep 09, 2026

Show notes

Republican gubernatorial candidate Steve Hilton announced a proposal to eliminate the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) as a standalone state agency if he is elected governor. He unveiled the plan during a campaign event in West Hollywood.

The GOP's first-ever midterm convention in Dallas is intended to rally Republicans ahead of November's elections and showcase the Trump administration's agenda. However, the decision by several vulnerable Republican candidates to skip the event highlights concerns within the party about how closely they should align themselves with Trump in competitive races.

TUESDAYS WITH TERRY: CCW for Special Operators, Lindsay Clancy, Weed & Clown College Sep 09, 2026

Show notes

A new bill introduced by Sen. Tim Sheehy (R-Mont.), a former Navy SEAL, would allow certain active-duty and veteran U.S. special operations personnel to carry concealed firearms nationwide, regardless of varying state concealed-carry laws.

As the Lindsay Clancy murder trial drew national attention, a growing number of online commentators began speculating about the role of her former husband, Patrick Clancy. NewsNation examined whether those accusations could expose some posters, influencers, or commentators to defamation lawsuits.

NPR reported on a major new study published in JAMA Health Forum that found adolescent cannabis use was associated with a significantly increased risk of developing serious mental health disorders later in life, including psychotic disorders, bipolar disorder, anxiety, and depression.

Major Slatic takes a look at an unexpected trend: aspiring actors and other burned-out professionals are turning to clown training as a way to relieve stress, rediscover creativity, and escape the pressure to constantly perform perfectly. The article argues that modern clowning is less about circus entertainment and more about vulnerability, spontaneity, and learning to embrace failure.

LOCATION-SHARING: Parents Tracking Kids & Kids Tracking Them Back Sep 09, 2026

Show notes

There’s a growing family-tech trend: location-sharing apps. Philip looks into how family location-sharing apps have evolved from parents tracking kids to everyone tracking everyone. While many families view the practice as convenient and reassuring, experts caution that constant monitoring can raise privacy issues and may contribute to anxiety. In many households, children now know exactly where their parents are and aren't shy about using that information.

CAPITOL ANNEX: Million Dollar Italian Stonework Begins Installation Sep 09, 2026

Show notes

The attorney for Lindsay Clancy, the Massachusetts mother accused of killing her three children in 2023, is asking President Donald Trump to consider a pardon following the dramatic end of her murder trial in a mistrial.

A bipartisan effort in Congress to force the release of additional Jeffrey Epstein-related records is gaining momentum, with 106 members of the House of Representatives signing a discharge petition aimed at forcing a vote on new transparency legislation.

Installation has begun on the $5.2 million Italian-fabricated granite façade for the new California Capitol Annex. While officials say the stonework is necessary to match the historic Capitol and was the most practical option, the decision continues to draw criticism as part of a project whose cost has grown to roughly $1.2 billion and remains under intense scrutiny over spending and transparency.

Show notes

A political dispute has emerged ahead of the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks, with former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani saying current Mayor Zohran Mamdani should not attend the official memorial ceremonies.

New York City has released more than 170,000 pages of previously undisclosed records related to air quality after the September 11, 2001 attacks, and the documents appear to show that city officials were aware of significant health risks around Ground Zero while publicly assuring residents and workers that conditions were safe.

PEREZ HILTON: Suicide Attempt and Social Media Accountability Sep 05, 2026

Show notes

A 20-year-old Southern California man is being praised as a hero after confronting and disarming a woman who was allegedly threatening employees inside an In-N-Out Burger in Lake Elsinore.

Federal authorities allege that Missouri House candidate Thomas Christopher Ross orchestrated a scheme to frame his Republican primary rival by planting cocaine and Adderall in her belongings and then reporting her to police. The plot allegedly unraveled when his own campaign manager went to law enforcement instead of carrying it out. Ross now faces a federal criminal charge as calls grow for him to leave the race.

The Hollywood Reporter article examines the aftermath of celebrity blogger Perez Hilton's highly public mental health crisis in August 2026, when he livestreamed apparent self-harm on TikTok, was hospitalized, and sparked a broader debate about online culture, public shaming, and the responsibilities of social media platforms.
