Erika Kirk Activates the Waterworks as Trump Makes Strange Noises · Breaking Absurdity — Today's Top Headlines That Can't Be Unheard. Brought to you by @ItsNotSatire.

• 0:00
  Donald Trump is losing control of his bodily
• 0:02
  functions. In front of a live audience. And then
• 0:07
  the internet had thoughts. Then things escalated.
• 0:16
  In today's breaking absurdity, Erica Kirk is
• 0:19
  back. With some familiar tactics. And one internet
• 0:24
  user reimagines a beloved children's show as
• 0:27
  Mr. Epstein's Neighborhood. Plus Anderson Cooper
• 0:30
  assembles a montage of Trump's obsession with
• 0:33
  the male form. Leading off today, just when you
• 0:41
  thought Trump's midterm rallies couldn't get
• 0:43
  any more absurd, Donald Trump finds a way to
• 0:45
  make history even weirder. Yesterday he was talking
• 0:48
  about a governor's race when he suddenly made
• 0:50
  this noise. Um, what just happened? It sounded
• 1:03
  like he just stuck his tongue out and said ah,
• 1:07
  a mid -sentence. Let's watch that again. He just
• 1:14
  pauses when he makes the noise and then keeps
• 1:16
  going. Now I'm gonna freeze frame right when
• 1:19
  he makes the noise. His mouth is just gaping
• 1:22
  open like he's ready for a medical exam. I know
• 1:27
  he travels with lots of physicians, but I don't
• 1:29
  think they intended to examine him while he's
• 1:31
  speaking at a rally. And of course, late night
• 1:34
  talk shows on the internet were quick to come
• 1:36
  up with their own version of the moment. One
• 1:38
  of my favorite is Jimmy Fallon's. He actually
• 1:41
  remixed the whole thing to a viral beat. As if
• 2:10
  that wasn't funny enough, someone on X actually
• 2:13
  remixed this to Sandstorm by Darude. I can only
• 2:16
  play a few seconds for copyright reasons, but
• 2:19
  I think you get the point. While we have no idea
• 2:26
  what's causing the spontaneous noises from the
• 2:28
  president, I think we can all agree that his
• 2:31
  rallies would be a lot more fun if they were
• 2:32
  like this every day. And that's only one way
• 2:36
  his rallies are getting strange. For the past
• 2:39
  few weeks I've been talking about how Trump can't
• 2:41
  stop talking about men that he finds attractive.
• 2:44
  So I was really delighted to see that Anderson
• 2:46
  Cooper decided to cover this in depth. His team
• 2:49
  put together all the perplexing moments and even
• 3:02
  remembered some previous moments. Then Anderson
• 3:18
  Cooper got a little spicy and actually talked
• 3:20
  about what he thinks about Trump's sexuality.
• 3:46
  Anderson Cooper paints quite a picture of what
• 3:47
  could happen at Trump's rallies if things continue
• 3:50
  on the current trajectory. And I think Anderson
• 3:52
  Cooper's right. Nothing's gay about this at all.
• 4:01
  Probably the best way to sum up Anderson's segment
• 4:03
  is to use Trump's own words. And I wish I could
• 4:10
  say that was the strangest thing that happened
• 4:12
  at Trump's rallies this week. Here's a moment
• 4:14
  when things seemed to apparently climax. Now
• 4:26
  that Trump has, um, finished, Erica Kirk is making
• 4:30
  headlines again as she recently appeared at Turning
• 4:32
  Point drawing on a familiar playbook from last
• 4:36
  year. I'm just going to zoom in here because
• 4:47
  you don't want to miss this activation. Preparing
• 4:51
  to engage tear system. Head shake. Eyes closed.
• 4:56
  Head down. In three, two, one. Tear system engaged.
• 5:04
  Throttling up. Prepare to look at the ceiling.
• 5:12
  Prepare for speak cry. Final breathy flourish.
• 5:17
  All scripts executed perfectly. And if the Academy
• 5:22
  awarded Oscars for turning point speeches, I'm
• 5:25
  sure she'd have no problem securing a win for
• 5:27
  best actress in a leading role. And in other
• 5:30
  moments when people were just doing their thing
• 5:32
  and the internet got involved, Trump posted LeBron
• 5:35
  James waving his arms while the national anthem
• 5:38
  was playing. Trump said that he was disrespecting
• 5:41
  the country and saying he's no good total disgrace
• 5:45
  and that he should apologize. Then Trump brought
• 5:48
  it up at a rally and doubled down. Right, Trump
• 6:07
  exposed a big scandal about LeBron James, coming
• 6:10
  from the man who's never done anything inappropriately
• 6:13
  at the wrong time. Well, there was that time
• 6:15
  he was asleep while they were reading the names
• 6:17
  of the 9 -11 victims. Or even more apt, how about
• 6:21
  the time Trump was waving his own arms while
• 6:23
  the national anthem was being played? Because
• 6:26
  it didn't take long for the internet to remember
• 6:28
  this clip. Because the internet's ability to
• 6:35
  produce the perfect reaction clip is the only
• 6:37
  thing more reliable than the internet outrage
• 6:40
  machine. And LeBron James himself had something
• 6:43
  to say about Trump's outrage. And while it may
• 7:02
  be true that Trump is having a slow news day,
• 7:05
  it's not true for the AI creators on the internet
• 7:07
  because somebody actually created a Mr. Epstein's
• 7:10
  Neighborhood parody of Mr. Rogers. And here's
• 7:14
  Jeffrey Epstein starring as Mr. Rogers himself
• 7:16
  doing that familiar costume change when he walks
• 7:19
  in the door. But you'll never believe who springs
• 7:22
  out of the closet. It's Donald Trump himself.
• 7:32
  And here's Jeffrey accepting a sacred gift from
• 7:35
  Saudi Arabia. And here's Jeffrey Epstein in the
• 7:46
  kitchen with lab equipment. And you'll never
• 7:48
  believe Stephen Hawking and Bill Gates roll in.
