You know when
gets that look — half grin, half “are you kidding me right now?”—you’re in for a fun ride down a long and winding road. This week’s Weekly Wrap-Up is classic Shuster: funny, furious, and meticulously factual.He takes the madness of the moment, from Trump’s latest tantrum about nuclear testing to the surreal moral collapse of the MAGA crowd, and distills it into approximately four minutes of pure, caffeinated clarity.
Without giving too much away, let’s just say the week’s headlines feature an astonishingly crack-brained President Trump playing nuclear cowboy.
Also, misplaced garden gnome JD Vance questioning the decency a Trump cabinet member, and pipsqueak porn monitor Mike Johnson still thinking “oversight” means “look anywhere but here.”
It’s part tragedy, part farce—and Shuster not only threads it together with the precision of the Emmy-winning former news anchor he is, but reminds you of the perversion that animates this crew of MAGA monstrosities and why we will never stop fighting these sick, sadistic SOBs.
Quite simply, we will do as Winston Churchill said and did with the Nazis of his time, with a few edits by your pal Cliff here, to bring us up to speed on where things are today:
...though large tracts of
Europeland with a 2:1 cow to 11th-grade-educated human ratio and many old andfamouslazy-ass, onetime slaveholding States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail.We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in
FranceChicago, we shall fight on theseasgrounds of the bedbug Mar-a-Lago if we must, andoceansto lock Pete Hegseth’s liquor cabinet, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strengthin the airto stop Trump’s gaudy, Saddam-esque ballroom monstrosity…we shall defend our
IslandConstitution and neighbors, whatever the cost may be, we shall fighton thebeaches, Trump’s little bitches, like Stephen Miller, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender…
If you’re catching up on everything Blue Amp Media this week, this episode pairs perfectly with David’s brilliant rewrite of The Raven, Nina Burleigh’s deep dive into Epstein’s shadow networks, Garlin Gilchrist’s campaign for decency, accountability and against Trumpism in Michigan, and Tony Michaels’ powerhouse history lesson on saving democracy.
Oh and then there was my appearance on Hardball, with the Da Vinci Code of Democratic victory going forward.
Each one ties back to the same thing Shuster exposes here: the fight between truth and the rot trying to replace it.
By the end, you’ll laugh, wince, and maybe mutter, “Bam,” right along with him.
