What do tariffs, bond yields, and used Hondas have in common? They’re all more expensive because of idiots. Croaky's back to break it down. #DebtDelusions #SupplyShock

🚨 The real story out of Florida:

The House leadership — packed with lobbyist puppets — declared war on Governor DeSantis. They tried to sabotage his agenda, defund his reforms, and ram through a reckless budget.

The Senate? They rejected the House’s "crap sandwich" budget and stood with DeSantis.

✅ Hope Florida is working — and that terrifies them. ✅ DeSantis isn’t playing lame duck — he’s still leading. ✅ The swamp wants Florida back — but the fight’s only begun.

This isn’t about one program. It’s about whether Florida stays free — or whether the old Tallahassee swamp returns.

This Easter, Croaky examined the rise of people who disavow expertise while demanding its privileges. From Dave Smith quoting GDP figures like holy scripture to social media mobs declaring gang tattoos and border policy with zero firsthand knowledge, the episode dissects how faux humility has become armor for unchecked arrogance.

In a world where microphones are free but knowledge costs effort, we ask: What happens when loud replaces learned—and when “I’m not an expert” becomes a brand?

The answer, unfortunately, is already all around us.

Croaky and Tahgi plunge into the ghostly realm of the social contract—scrutinizing it from multiple angles, from Burke to Hegel to Stirner, and even Kant. Is society a rational agreement between individuals? A sacred covenant across generations? Or just a clever scam by professors and priests to domesticate your will?

In a no-holds-barred episode, Croaky deconstructs the absurdity of “I never signed the social contract” memes while Tahgi defends the notion that we’re born into institutions like fish into water. Along the way, they debate whether families are organic or institutional, whether obligations are felt or forged, and whether Nietzsche should ever be allowed in polite society.

With chicken jokes, Kantian morality, and just enough philosophy to make Twitter arguments awkward for your friends, this is the episode where ideas don’t get participation trophies—they get grilled, deboned, and served with a side of the moral imagination.

In this episode of Firing Lane, Croaky tackles Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s latest descent into pseudoscientific absurdity — this time claiming autistic people his age “you never see,” branding them with invented terms like “full-blown autism,” and insisting they can’t write poetry or flush toilets.

Joined by guests with real-world experience — including autistic individuals, behavioral therapists, and parents — we break down the facts, mock the ignorance, and expose how RFK’s pity-peddling isn’t advocacy… it’s opportunism wrapped in 5G conspiracies and pharmaceutical paranoia.

Autism isn’t a tragedy. But RFK’s understanding of it might be.

In this episode, Croaky rips into the Florida Legislature’s full-blown meltdown over a Form 990 that wasn’t even due. You’ll hear:

🧾 The IRS calendar they forgot to read 🎭 The performance art of “accountability” from lawmakers who just gave themselves $57 million 🔍 Why journalist like Lawrence Mower are either catastrophically misinformed—or deliberately misleading 💸 Peter Schorsch’s pay-to-play swamp circus 🌿 How marijuana lobbyists and trial lawyers may be quietly fueling the smear campaign against Casey DeSantis and SB 1144

Croaky lays out the case: this isn’t about transparency. It’s about sabotaging a successful welfare program… because it worked without them. Failed legislators like Alex Andrade are working on their next career move by attempting to attack a succesful program.

🐊 Hope Florida didn’t miss a deadline. Tallahassee missed the point. And accidentally justified why Hope Florida should be a state institution.

In this brutally honest Firing Lane episode, Croaky, Reese, and Tahgi rip the mask off the growing grift of pseudo-intellectuals weaponizing anti-Israel sentiment for clout, clicks, and controversy.

Croaky dissects the now-infamous Joe Rogan “debate” between Douglas Murray and Dave Smith, exposing it not as a debate—but as a live evisceration. With razor wit, we break down how Smith flounders behind emotional appeals, misquotes, and shallow knowledge masked as conviction.

We dive into:

• The clown-nose-on/clown-nose-off routine of fake experts 📯

• Why real expertise matters—and how it's being drowned out by monetized ignorance 💸

• The rise of performative contrarianism from figures like Candace Owens, Ian Carroll, and Daryl Cooper 🤡

• What Douglas Murray actually meant about platforming charlatans, and why the backlash proves his point 🧠

• How Israel became the new algorithm goldmine—and the sinister incentives behind it 📈

It’s not about silencing opinions—it’s about calling out the frauds who act like sages until challenged. And when the laser sight of historical literacy lands on them… 💥

This isn’t just a defense of the Hope Florida Foundation. It’s a takedown of:

1. The false narrative that Centene “owed” $67 million as a legal penalty.

2. The misrepresentation of a $10 million donation as stolen taxpayer funds.

3. The incompetence and dishonesty of figures like Rep. Alex Andrade and Rep. Matt Gaetz.

4. The media complicity—particularly figures like Peter Schorsch and outlets like the Miami Herald—in spreading deliberate innuendo.

It’s also a broader call to conservatives to reject performative populism and defend serious, successful programs that actually get people off government dependency.
