EXPOSED! MAGA “Influencers” PAID OFF To Shill For Big Soda!
Manage episode 473362665 series 2358125
Investigative reporter and podcast host Nick Sortor reported on his Twitter page that the company "Influenceable" is paying MAGA influencers to support Big Soda. Sortor says he became suspicious when popular Trump-supporting pages like Clown World, Eric Daugherty, Not Jerome Powell and Ian Miles Cheong all posted remarkably similar tweets, each decrying the idea that SNAP (food stamps) recipients would be barred from using their benefits to purchase soda products.
Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Sortor’s exposé and why prominent figures online should always disclose if they are being paid to promote a certain product or viewpoint.
Plus segments on Bill Maher’s recent realization that the Democratic Party is cooked and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s tone-deaf comments on Social Security.
Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
