This episode explores the complex dynamics within the Black community regarding political support, social justice, and cultural identity. It features candid insights on recent controversies, historical context, and the importance of unity and understanding in social activism. Mark dives in with a sharp critique of the recent black celebrities to fly their MAGA colors, including Chili, Nick Cannon and Nicki Minaj as well as some bigger names such as Ice Cude, Snoop Dogg and Lil Wayne. Mark says the latest strategy is to hit these celebs in the pocketbook by boycotting their concerts, shows and music. While there have always been traitors to the cause, Mark is particularly disappointed in Trump 2.0 support as the lesson should have been learned the first go around. White supremacy is clearly now the goal and no black person should be in support of that effort.

BROCK AND MARK discuss U.S. forces searching for an F-15E crew member after a two-seater fighter jet went down over Iran, a U.S. official said Friday. The other crew member has been rescued. Iran shot down the F-15E Strike Eagle, a U.S. official said, and the American military was scrambling to find the second aviator after a regional governor offered a bounty for its crew.
A U.S. aircraft that was mobilized to support the search and rescue mission was also struck by Iranian fire after the F-15E jet was downed, a U.S. official told NBC News.
That aircraft, a single-pilot A-10 Thunderbolt, known as a Warthog, made it to Kuwaiti airspace, where the pilot ejected and the aircraft crashed, the official said. The pilot is safe and the A-10 is down in Kuwait, according to the official.

mark and Brock discuss the fact that Trump declared Wednesday night that the U.S. offensive in Iran is “nearing completion” but warned that military operations would intensify over the “next two to three weeks.” He attempted to clarify his goals for the war — to destroy Iran’s nuclear capabilities — and insisted it was never about regime change. And he shrugged off the spike in oil and gas prices as a “short-term increase.” #trumpspeech #pambondi #bondifired

Mark and Brock Discuss how: A broker for U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth attempted to make a ​big investment in major defense companies in the weeks ‌leading up to the U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran, the Financial Times reported on Monday, citing three people familiar with the matter.
Chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell ​said on X the story was "entirely false and fabricated" ​and demanded a retraction. Of course typical Trump response...lie and attack the press...

The massively corrupt Trump family has found another way to make big money...War. Now that they have discovered the Defense budget is an ever-increasing and easy to exploit flow of cash, Trump and his cronies aim to tap into the riches. From direct pay-outs from foreign leaders to sham munitions companies, Trump sees a trillion dollar opportunity. Of course, his personal financial interest far outweighs the American national interest. And for the suckers and losers fighting the battles too bad, For the American taxpayer, keep writing checks to Trump's bank account. For those who thought Trump's campaign promise of peace had merit...bless your heart. Get used to America at War.

Mark & Brock kick off this epidsode with Brock sharing his experience at NO Kings protest north of New York City. The demonstration outside the Minnesota State Capitol for the marquee No Kings rally, with Bruce Springsteen and Jane Fonda on the bill, wasn't the most notable development during the day of protests on March 28.
More notable was the No Kings march in Staunton, Virginia. And Salisbury, Maryland. Rockford, Illinois. Beaver, Pennsylvania. Eugene, Oregon. Chillicothe, Ohio. Port Huron, Michigan. Flatwoods, West Virginia. And more than 3,000 other places across the country, plus a scattering around the world.
And we also discuss the fact that Russia took satellite images of a U.S. air base in Saudi Arabia three times in the days before Iran attacked the site and wounded American troops, according to a summary of Ukrainian intelligence shared with NBC News by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's disgraceful and un-American decision to refuse the promotion of two women and Black officer to the rank of 1-star General is yet another disgraceful chapter in the Trump 2.0 Admin. If our military is racist and misogynist, it will deter future enrollments. For today, it hurts morale. Bigger picture the American people have come to expect their military to be a true meritocracy. Our national security is on the line. The best people should be promoted. All biases and prejudice is expected to be put aside for the greater goal of national security. But Hegesth, he of the White Christian Nationalism and Nazi leanings, brings all his racism and gender bias to the job. And his boss, the Commander-in-Chief is happy to oblige. This is a huge step backwards for the readiness of our armed forces and an embarrassment to the country and the American citizens.

An in-depth discussion on current geopolitical tensions, US foreign policy, and domestic political issues, featuring insights into Iran, Israel, and the US political landscape. We criticize the American War and ask how Trump can extricate the country form a war which has no stated goal and is causing significant economic distress. We argue Trump has been manipulated by Israel and Saudi Arabia to achieve there regional goals while hurting the American. Brock argues Netanyahu has take advantage of a dementia-ridden, narcissistic Trump. Meanwhile. American Jews are divided and under increased duress. Support of Netanyahu at the expense of American interests has led to negative outcomes. The backlash in the form of antisemitism is growing.
