The Cognitive Dissonance Podcast

You've seen the headlines about Joe Rogan "blasting" Trump and ICE for their "Gestapo" tactics - but the media has it all wrong. Joe spent the majority of his interview with Rand Paul excusing and defending ICE and Trump.

Check out this weeks Know Rogan Experience for more.

This is an important episode, and one that shouldn’t be missed. Talk of Joe criticising ICE and Trump’s immigration enforcement completely miss the point, and the media repetition of that narrative does a disservice to their audience.

Our analysis isn’t now for Patrons, and free from Tuesday.

Massie: Previous presidents told us to go to war over WMDs that did not exist. Now it's the same playbook. Except we're told that drugs are the WMDs. If it were about drugs, we'd bomb Mexico or China or Colombia. This is about oil and regime change.

Marco Rubio standing in a corner by a lamp looking down, similar to a toddler pooping their pants silently and denying it.

Parent to a toddler: “are you pooping over there”
Toddler: “NO!”
The toddler:

The craziest part of the #60minutes interview is that we have some key elections that are extremely winnable if we keep the focus on getting out the vote!
NYC Mamdani VA Spanberger NJ Sherrill CA Prop 50, MA Prop 1 & 2 PA state sup court GA Pub Service (aka decide energy rates) & many more!
Go VOTE

I’m just saying that if my religion had the rest of the world ALSO praying that all its believers get Raptured off the planet on Tuesday… like maybe on Wednesday, Evangelicals should reflect on why everyone else would have gladly dealt with a 1000 year apocalypse instead another day with them.

Hahaha fantastic

Winner winner chicken n’ dumplin dinner.

Last I heard he was still very much using that bruised hand to sign more illegal EOs & directives to send troops to US cities. Did I miss where that swollen puffy face stopped slurring lies with zero pushback from the media? No? Then idgaf about Mussolini McCheese’s health bar.

The only health concern regarding Trump I want to hear at this point is they were concerned the putrification could be toxic to anyone in a 100 mile radius so they needed hazmats to remove the body.

James Dobson, of Focus on the Family, died and my heart goes out to the generations of countless victims directly harmed by his teachings & ideologies. The only tragedy in his passing is that he didn’t die much sooner so perhaps there might have been less suffering left in his wake.

Everyone called out by Hunter Biden the last 48 hours:

Hence they have no qualms about saying it doesn’t exist. It’s why Bondi was stalling - there never was a list, just a treat they kept in their back pocket to feed the rabble whenever they start to lose support. Elon ruined it for them but no worries MAGA will forget they ever cared in a week.

HOT TAKE 🚨 There was never an actual Epstein list or anything else exposing things we don’t already know. The potential existence of a blackmail list was always just MAGA fodder for their deep state pizza gate conspiracies. When Elon started using it against Trump it wasn’t fun or useful anymore.

They take turns on who will “fall on the sword” but they haven’t once allowed their combined votes stop Trump’s agenda. Not a single time. One of them always “caves” & only if the GOP can afford to lose a vote, 1 of them (whoever’s up for relection) will play the brave woman who stands up to him.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but Murkowski was always a yes. This whole hemming & hawing beforehand followed by her hopes & concerns the House will kick it back is her schtick along with Collins.

“fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again.”

The craziest part about No Kings Day being the largest single day protest is that every prior mass protest in recent history happened during Trump except two, and those ones happened during Nixon and Reagan 😃😃

It is, it is. Sadly it is.

the story today is of a profoundly low energy military parade being met with millions of americans in nationwide protests denouncing the dictatorial pretensions of the president

The entire military “perade” was an embarrassment but the fact that they stacked 3 Sam’s Club sheet cakes and stuck what looks to be TJ Maxx throw pillow on top is… actually such a perfect encapsulation of this regime.

He’s going to ban the word taco via EO

I talked to Cecil from @dissonancepod.bsky.social about one of the biggest wellness influencers getting his info from a medium; what we can learn about believers and grifters from this; and the MAHA branch of the U.S. government.

“Let people have fun!”

Cool so we get a meme & a hearty lmao while they get increased corporate profits they can use to lobby for wage stagnation & tax breaks.

How fun! So worth the lolz.

Or better yet- community organized taco dinner fundraisers to raise $$ for immigration lawyers & food pantries.

Stop focusing on the temporary gratification of a corporation “dunking” on Trump to increase their profits that end up being funneled to the GOP for billionaire tax breaks & do the work

“Taco Bell has the chance to do something so funny lolll”

2025 & we still like corporate pandering?

I’d rather support local taquerias selling chicken tacos for 47¢ on June 14th across the nation.

I hate it here

Jake Tapper thought he was channeling Bob Woodward but instead he’s giving Matt Taibbi

Trump’s Administration makes Orwell’s 1984 sound like a light hearted romp.
