Shane Gillis SNL firestorm, the Cornell 7 "I Am Jane Doe" revolt, and the Katie Zacharia attack that exposed the left three weeks before the midterms. With the midterms weeks away, the party that built its entire brand on protecting women, minorities, and the oppressed just got caught, on camera, doing the opposite on every single front. Kathy Hochul and Bruce Blakeman clashed in the New York governor debate over illegal immigration, Mamdani, and crime, and one answer from Hochul may have handed Republicans the exact clip they need in November. Social and political commentator Anthony Rispo joins Jillian to break down why the woke moral script is collapsing in real time, from the Shane Gillis SNL monologue to the Cornell 7 case to a France riots solidarity stunt so insane it has to be seen to be believed. Then, Ziwe sat Hasan Piker down and asked the internet's favorite socialist one question about Karl Marx and his $2.7 million house, and he never recovered. The new White House press secretary Katie Zacharia got hit with an attack the left swore it would never use on a woman. And Dan Levy, Letitia James, Bernie Sanders, and Tucker Carlson all show up, and not one of them comes out clean. Rispo, a Columbia-trained psychologist, lays out the actual science behind why people set themselves on fire for a cause, scream "I am Jane Doe" at strangers, and call a comedian a rapist over a gym joke. If Democrats can't see this pattern, November is going to hurt.
