David Shuster is back with his weekly countdown of the internet’s sharpest comedic satire — and this week, the material practically wrote itself. One cabinet member quoted scripture that turned out to be... not scripture. Trump posted something so unhinged he had to pretend it was something else entirely. C-SPAN became accidentally hilarious just by stating facts. And the #1 clip? It came from the last country you’d expect, and it goes harder than anything produced in the United States this week. Five clips, ranked — and Shuster’s top pick is worth the wait.

AMPED UP from Blue Amp Media
AMPED UP isn’t punditry—it’s a pressure test. Cliff Schecter and David Shuster have been fighting the Right for 25 years, and this is where they unload what they’ve learned. No both-sides bullshit. No manufactured outrage. Just unfiltered accountability, deep institutional knowledge, and the stories corporate media won’t tell. Cliff helped beat Trump in 2020. David exposed GOP corruption as an Emmy-winning anchor at MSNBC and CNN.
