We examine the difference between political "weather" and "climate" this week, starting with Trump once again bribing farmers with $11 billion after his own tariffs destroyed their markets. We play audio demonstrating Trump's cognitive decline and discuss his increasingly unhinged Truth Social posts, including a bizarre rant about Marjorie Taylor Greene. The Republican Party is now held together by violence and threats, from ICE brutality to intimidation of Indiana legislators. We revisit the enduring plague of "Both Sides" media coverage with examples from Pharrell Williams to prosecutors describing the DC pipe bomber. But there's hope—the Democratic base is finally done giving Republicans second chances, as Mrs. Frazzled's viral video demonstrates.<a href='https://www.patreon.com/posts/open-thread-your-145491653?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_link'>Post YOUR suggestions for the 2025 Crookie Awards here! </a>More at proleftpod.com.  Stay in Touch! <ul><li>Email: proleftpodcast@gmail.com</li><li>Website: <a href='https://professionalleft.blogspot.com/'>proleftpod.com</a></li><li>Support via Patreon: <a href='https://patreon.com/proleftpod'>patreon.com/proleftpod</a></li><li>or Donate in the Venmo App @proleftpod</li><li>Mail: The Professional Left, PO Box 9133, Springfield, Illinois, 62791</li></ul> <a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.me/proleftpodcast">Support the show</a>
