OM DENNE EPISODE
Michigan Primary Fallout, Mamdani Grocery ID Claim Debunked, and Spain’s Ceuta/Melilla Migration Surge
Dan Griffin and Corey Walsh open with Dan recapping a recent Radical Independent roundtable, then correct a claim about Zohran Mamdani requiring IDs at proposed NYC city-run grocery stores, explaining the “library card-esque” idea was raised to prevent bulk resale of discounted staples. They discuss a viral Trump golf shot video and whether it shows an AI-like frame shift, and cover dropped DOJ charges in the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool “vandalism” case after renovation defects were found. The main segment focuses on Michigan’s Democratic primary where Abdul El-Sayed defeats Haley Stevens despite being heavily outspent, with hosts framing the race around AIPAC/foreign influence, media “Islamist” fearmongering, polling misses, and Mike Rogers ads tying El-Sayed to Hasan Piker’s “America deserved 9/11” remark; they also cite Dearborn results. They then speculate on Spain’s Ceuta/Melilla migrant surge as politically driven after a court ruling and possible Moroccan non-enforcement, and close with discussion of claims that community notes can be botted amid disputes over a Marco Rubio clip.
