The Oldest Lie Ever Sold: Tucker, Fuentes, and the Algorithm of Hate

History doesn’t repeat — it just logs back in.
When Tucker Carlson hosted Nick Fuentes, it wasn’t journalism. It was marketing.Antisemitism has become the new clickbait — the oldest hatred rebranded for the algorithm.
From Pharaoh to Twitter, every civilization that runs out of ideas finds a Jew to blame. And now, thanks to social media, that hatred isn’t whispered in the alley; it’s monetized in HD.
Conservatism’s task isn’t to tolerate “controversial ideas.” It’s to draw the line where civilization must stand.

The Hollow Crown — Richard II and the Fragility of Authority

In this episode of Firing Lane, Croaky Caiman steps into the world of Shakespeare’s Richard II to explore what happens when power becomes performance and leadership dissolves into self-admiration. The Bard’s most poetic king becomes a mirror for every modern ruler who mistakes applause for legitimacy and rhetoric for governance.
From divine right to divine ratings, Croaky dissects the psychology of authority — why even kings fall when they forget that crowns are meant to weigh, not float. With humor, historical insight, and a few pointed contemporary parallels, this episode connects Shakespeare’s tragedy to our own age of theatrical politics, where every mirror still waits for its Richard.
💬 “Every age has its Richard. The names change, the hairlines recede, but the soliloquy of self-adoration remains the same.”

The Hollow Men of the “Right”: Conservatism vs. Clicks

Owning the libs isn’t a philosophy. Conservatism is the hard work of mastery—of self, impulse, and pride. The hollow men sell rage; we defend civilization. New episode: why standards are more important than clout. 
 

October 7th Why We Remember

🕯️ October 7th was not just an attack on Israel. It was an attack on civilization itself.
Grandparents burned alive. Children executed on livestream. And within days, Western academics and influencers were lighting candles—for the murderers.
This isn’t about borders or policy. This is about remembering what happens when evil is rebranded as “resistance,” and human life becomes a debate-team exercise.
Listen for why “Never Again” must mean something. And why forgetting October 7th ensures it will happen again.

Obamacares Ghos: GOP Keeps Losing Healthcare War It Should Have Won

In this Episode Croaky goes over the Obamacare Subsidies that have led to the current Shutdown and what the fight is really about. He covers the origin of Obamacare and the actions that have led to our current issues. Listen in, as always Language Content warning:

JD Vance Thinks You're Too Dumb To See He's Lying About ACA Subsidies

In this episode, Croaky takes aim at JD Vance’s latest fairy tale — the claim that Republicans had the “foresight” to handle ACA subsidies expiring. Spoiler: they didn’t. The so-called Big Beautiful Bill hospital fund wasn’t prophecy. It was a payoff to nervous Republican senators after Medicaid cuts nearly collapsed rural hospitals.
Now Vance wants you to believe a band-aid slapped on a self-inflicted wound somehow covers millions losing subsidies. It doesn’t. Families — especially older, rural, Republican voters — will see premiums skyrocket, and rural hospitals will be left even weaker as paying patients disappear.
This isn’t conservatism. It’s theater. It’s the dumbest manifestation of Republican politics since Harding’s poker-table cronies. And when the bill lands in mailboxes, voters won’t remember the spin. They’ll remember who handed it to them.

Weekend at Comey's: Indictment: Sunglasses, Corpses, and Political Theater

Trump’s DOJ has done its best Weekend at Bernie’s impression — dragging a dead case back into court, slapping sunglasses on it, and calling it justice.
In this episode, Croaky breaks down:
Why the FBI already closed Arctic Haze in 2021 — and why reviving it now is absurd.
The wafer-thin charges: one false statement, one obstruction, and a third count the grand jury itself refused.
The real misconduct Trump’s DOJ skipped: Comey’s memos.
How Trump’s missed opportunities and distraction tactics are undermining accountability.
Why Florida conservatism looks like Byzantium while national MAGA drifts into late-stage Rome.
👉 It’s not law. It’s theater. And it’s Weekend at Comey’s.

Kimmel Free Speech: The Easy Way, The Hard Way or The Constitution

Brendan Carr told Disney/ABC: “We can do this the easy way or the hard way.”
That’s not free speech. That’s a government regulator threatening private companies into censorship.
The same people who screamed about Murthy v. Missouri are now cheering.
I break it down on Firing Lane: hypocrisy, history, and what it means when regulators play mob boss with the Constitution.
