31:23Now PlayingIn what can only be described as the political equivalent of a circus casting call, Donald Trump has apparently decided to fill his potential cabinet with a collection of individuals who seem better suited for a reality TV show than running the country. Picture this: Matt Gaetz for Attorney General (alleged child sex trafficer fresh off dodging an ethics report by resigning), RFK Jr. for Health Secretary (because nothing says "health expert" like decades of being ridiculed by actual health experts), and Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence (presumably because she needed something to do between recording podcasts and defending dictators).
Hawk delivers this news while casually mentioning his soy sauce-stained shirt and ADHD-induced desk reorganization, because why not add some personal flair while discussing the potential appointment of Laura Trump to the Senate? Yes, you read that right - Rick Scott wants the woman who just released a song about "hot firemen" to help run the country. Meanwhile, Nancy Pelosi, at the spry age of 84, has filed for reelection, apparently deciding that pushing out 81-year-old Joe Biden for being too old doesn't apply to her own career choices.
In perhaps the most deliciously ironic twist of the episode, The Onion has purchased InfoWars in a court-ordered auction and plans to relaunch it as a parody of itself - which, let's be honest, is barely distinguishable from what it was originally. The episode wraps up with Hawk making bets about election outcomes and Matt Gaetz's confirmation chances, all while lamenting the state of American politics with the enthusiasm of someone who just realized they're out of coffee during a morning podcast recording.
