Last week was our first playoff game, and my plaque psoriasis was so itchy under all my gear. Sometimes just thinking about scratching could take me out of the moment.
And then, my doctor told me I could get clearer skin with a pill called O-Tesla. O-Tesla apremolast is a prescription medicine used to treat adult patients with plaque psoriasis, for whom phototherapy or systemic therapy is appropriate.
O-Tesla can help you get clearer skin after just four months.

Rough day today, but we'll be right back here on Monday to do it all again. That's it for us.
Kudlow's next. Hello, folks.
Welcome to Kudlow. I'm Larry Kudlow.
Stocks are swooning and Charles Payne's going to help us out in just a little bit, tell us why all this is happening. At some point, you can try to put lipstick on an orange turd, but the turd will always surface.
In this case right here, Fox viewers are learning that Donald Trump is, surprise, surprise, a complete con artist, and Fox viewers are turning against Donald Trump. We're seeing that on the various Fox posts throughout social media as Fox viewers are flooding the comment sections that are usually just overly complimentary to Trump and Elon Musk to the point to being being cultishly bizarre.
And now we're seeing these comments saying, oh, I regret voting for him. This is so cringe.
Really, you turned America into some Muppet show within days. So people are getting the bad economic data right now.
Inflation is surging. Grocery prices rising higher than ever right now.
The market is crashing, and Fox is trying their best to promote Elon Musk. So they show this graphic right here and this video, let me show it to you, that Elon Musk's like, I'm a meme now, I'm a meme.
And they posted this on their Instagram account, play this clip. I am become meme.
Yeah, pretty much. I'm just I'm living the meme.
It's like there's living the dream and there's living the meme and it's pretty much what's happening. You know, you're like, those started out as a meme.
Think about it. Now it's real.
Isn't that crazy? okay. Now they received like literally thousands of responses.
And here's what some of the responses said. Turned a serious, respectable country into the Muppet show within days.
I regret voting for Trump. This is way too cringe.
Elon Musk just caught on a hot mic calling Donald Trump poor. Textbook definition of clowns.
F-ing cornball. Too drugged up to take his sunglasses off.
LMAO. We are a joke.
We are currently the laughingstock of the world. Some memes.
Beyond embarrassing. Our country is a joke with him as president and Trump as king.
What the F is he even laughing about? Bro is zooted on cat dog thinks he funny guy at school. And you as a quote news network think this is funny and OK said lots of memes depicting Elon Musk as a clown.
This is all pathetic. This was all a joke and I didn't think everyone would fall for it but here we are is this a panel at comic-con it is officially 1984 other comments this guy is a James Bond villain I guarantee he and Trump will turn on each other eventually two egos like this this cannot occupy the same space.
I hope you saw him showing off with a chainsaw to cut the federal government. No shame, no remorse for all these people now without jobs.
Heartless. It was a joke to him.
Remember, you may need these folks, especially the cancer and medical research one day. because, of course, Trump and Doge are gutting cancer research and firing veterans and firing government workers at all levels and trying to get rid of Medicaid and trying to get rid of the Department of Education.
A lot of bad indicators right now. And it is, I told you so, F around, find out, leopards eating your face.
It just is very unfortunate that these brainwashed people ended up dragging the rest of us with them into this freaking mess right now. So sure, they're finding out.
But y'all dragged us into this when we tried to tell you, yes, Project 2025 was real. Yes, they're doing these things.
And you were like, no, he's not really going to do them. No way.
He just says that. He just he's a great businessman.
No, he isn't. He bankrupted most of his businesses in the past.
Objectively, just look it up. He bankrupted most of his casinos and most of the companies he worked with went out of business.
His current company, Trump Media, last year only did about three and a half, $3.6 million in revenue total. Total revenue was under $4 million on $400 million in losses.
How do you even do that? How do you lose $400 million in revenue? Not profit, not net net, not EBITDA, revenue. So Trump's Trump media made less than, I don't know, your local McDonald's, not the company, the one franchise, your local coffee shop, your boba spot, a small mom and pop restaurant does about that in revenue and probably earns a little bit of a profit to not losing this money like Trump's the worst businessman ever.
And now he's doing it to our freaking economy. Inflation is growing.
Fed is now not going to be cutting interest rates anytime soon. All of this while we learn that consumer sentiments got like an all time low right now when it's crashing.
People aren't spending money because they're afraid of all of the chaos being caused by Donald Trump. Planes are like crashing every other day, it seems.
Oh, and here's the new news. Trump plans to fire the United States Postal Service Governing Board, and he will merge the Postal Service into the Commerce Department.
I mean, how do you even do these things without legislation? I mean, what the hell are these spineless Republicans doing? Now he wants to destroy our mail, our medication. Yeah, they want us to just suffer so that they can have everything, I guess, and just make the people feel all of this pain for like no reason because they're freaking sick.
You know what? It would disrupt 55 years of nonpolitical mail service and threatens to upend trillions of dollars of e-commerce and the 250-year-old U.S. mail system.
As Congress member Dan Boyer says, the Constitution gives Congress power to establish the U.S. Postal Service, which it did by law during the Washington administration.
Its status as an independent agency was also established by Congress in law. The U.S.
Postal Service is wildly popular with the American people, and its service is essential and irreplaceable. Nobody voted for this.
It is brazenly illegal, unconstitutional, and corrupt. We're seeing, as I said, inflation rise.
Even New York Post, a Murdoch property is telling Donald Trump, Donald, they have to treat him like a freaking baby, like a baby book. Remember the baby books like C-Spot Run? C-Spot Run.
C-Spot Jump. C-Spot Sit.
C- see spot eat. Rupert Murdoch knows Trump is such an idiot.
He has to communicate to Trump with picture books, the cover of the New York Post, which is a Murdoch owned property because Murdoch seeing people turning against Trump, especially with his support of Putin as well. This is a dictator.
Dear Donald, this is what it says. Trump, this is a dictator and it's a photo of Putin and 10 other Ukraine war truths we ignore at our peril.
Big, bold letters because they know what an idiot Donald Trump is. Meanwhile, Trump is sending emails like this to his supporters.
They want me to fire Elon musk The Democrats, they want me to do it, but Elon Musk is dark MAGA. So claim your dark MAGA hat.
I'm being flooded with requests for dark MAGA hats because Elon Musk has gone dark MAGA. The hell are we even talking about here? Gone dark MAGA? I mean, these people like genuinely, I don't want to say insane because it gives them like, oh, insanity defense.
These people are psychotic, though. This is at the conference where Trump's speaking, CPAC.
Trump is speaking at a conference whose attendees are promoting the third term project. So they went from Project 2025, which they're implementing.
Now they call it the third term project, which calls to override the Constitution to let Trump hold on to power. And their signage, this is what the Trump supporters want, depicts Trump as Julius Caesar, who declared himself a dictator for life.
Here was Trump on audio yesterday calling into Fox saying, please don't blame me for the economy. Play this clip.

Thank you, Miracle Made for sponsoring this episode. And here he is yesterday saying,

yes, I know I'm hearing egg prices are going up, but that's not my fault. That's Biden's fault,

right? Right. Play this clip.
And she's going to be a fantastic secretary and you'll do something

with the eggs because I'm hearing so much about eggs. You'll figure it out.
You got to figure

Thank you. fault.
That's Biden's fault. Right.
Right. Play this clip.
And she's going to be a fantastic secretary. And you'll do something with the eggs because I'm hearing so much about eggs.
You'll figure it out. You've got to figure something out fast.
But we inherited all of the problems. You know, at some point, a few months down the road, we won't be able to say it's so much us.
But the big things, really, we can we can blame other people for to allow criminals into our country at levels that nobody's ever seen before, to allow people from jails to have countries from all over the world be allowed to empty jails into an open border. They emptied jails and prisons, mental institutions, insane asylum, gang members, drug lords, drug people, people on drugs, people that are very sick.
They allow them to come into our country totally. And finally, I'll just leave you with this clip because it's hilarious.
It's Democratic Congress member Jamie Raskin saying, who's leading Doge? And that's what you see a lot of the people in the comments at Fox are saying, who's leading this thing? And Raskin's hilarious. He goes, is it this 19-year-old kid who calls himself Big Balls? Is our government being run by a 19-year-old named Big Balls? Or the racist one? Which one is running Doge? Because no one's claiming that they run Doge.
Here, play this clip. The administration took the position in court this week that Elon Musk is not the head of Doge and is not leading Doge.
So who is leading Doge? Is it the young man who calls himself big balls? Is it the racist on the night crew who's proud of the fact that he was a racist before all of his friends were racist and says that we should legitimize Indian hate. Who is Doge?

I think you get the point right there. Let me know what you think.
