A napkin's what's left of the workers' share of the economy, lowest since the year the Depression started. Trump renames a lake nobody outside America recognizes, then sends the bill to a golf course in D.C. while wildfire crews abandon the front lines to polish a fountain. RFK Jr. lies to Congress about Samoa, eighty-three kids die anyway, and he still runs Health and Human Services. DeSantis launders sick kids' settlement money into a weed fight. The Department of Education can't tell Churchill from a TikTok trend and accidentally calls the boss a Nazi. And Optimus Prime's voice goes quiet forever. Tape rolls.

Dolly gets the day off from jokes. Tape rolls.
