In this episode of Straight White American Jesus, Brad and Dan discuss a range of controversial issues. They start with the ongoing mass deportations of Venezuelan nationals under the Trump administration, ignoring a judge's injunction.

They talk about the use of tattoos as markers for gang affiliation, comparing the treatment of Venezuelan migrants to that of Pete Hegseth, who has Crusader tattoos associated with white nationalism.

The episode also covers the recent removal of historical references, including tributes to Jackie Robinson and the Navajo code talkers, from government websites under Pete Hegseth's directive. Finally, they discuss Trump's latest interactions with Vladimir Putin, highlighting Trump's continued excessively amiable stance.

The guys wrap up with reasons for hope, including a court ruling preventing the deportation of an Indian-born Georgetown fellow and a middle school teacher's brave stand against mandated content-neutral posters in Idaho.
