hing better. It's called the simultaneous sip. And it happens. That's right. Right now. Go.

Oh, you feel better. You do. Yeah, you do.

Well, after our show today you might want to join Owen Gregorian, who's going to be hosting a Spaces event right after we're done. Spaces is the audio service on X. So just go there and look for Owen Gregorian or you can find the link in my X feed as Scott Adams says.

Well, I wonder if there's any news about the health benefits of coffee. Oh yeah. According to the Times of India there's a new study out of the UK somewhere and it turns out that if you have three cups of coffee every day you can reduce your risk of liver disease by 49%. Right? So what I recommend is that when you drink alcohol, you drink one cup of coffee for every drink because the alcohol will destroy your liver because it's poison, but the coffee will just rejuvenate it. You'll break even. No, do not listen to any medical advice from cartoonist podcasters. Bad idea. Bad idea.

See what else is happening. Let's do some fake news. There's some fake news today on social media. It is reporting that, this is not true by the way, so before I even say what it is, according to Grok there's no truth to this whatsoever. But the rumor is that Brigitte Macron's plastic surgeon who was going to give a tell-all has been found dead, fell out of a window. But it turns out that it's probably a Russian disinformation campaign and there's no credible source for the story.

Does Grok really know? Marcela asks. And the answer is, well, it's pretty good at checking sources, so there's no other source that says it.

All right, here's my favorite story. I was doing a pre-show before we went live here and I couldn't stop laughing for about ten minutes. So Trump just published another Truth Social in which he opines that Rosie O'Donnell, who as you know moved to Ireland because she's so unhappy with the United States, and Trump says that since Rosie is so bad for the United States he's considering removing her citizenship.

Now, I went to Grok and I said, "Can a president remove somebody's citizenship?" And he said, "No, no, a president does not have that power." I think it would be in some weird situation where they had lied on some official forms to become a citizen or something. There's a special case but basically no.

So the thing that makes me laugh is wondering what Trump was thinking or saying or who was in the room when he wrote that message because if he wrote it alone it wouldn't be as funny. But I just imagine him sitting there with some of his best friends or maybe just Melania or something like, "All right, watch this. I'm gonna send out a Truth Social that says I'm gonna take Rosie O'Donnell's citizenship away because she complained about the United States from Ireland." I don't believe that he believes he has the power to do that. And you know it's a slow news day. So the last thing that Trump wants is people talking about Epstein. So whenever the shelf of news is a little bare, Trump just comes up with something that he just creates out of nothing that creates a story you can't not talk about.

Do you think that the news can ignore the fact that Trump has called for maybe removing the citizenship of a US citizen for complaining from Ireland?

All right. I hope you liked it as much as I did. To me that's just hilarious. He obviously knows exactly what he's doing.

All right. Well according to the Daily Mail, the New York Times is admitting their fake news from last year where I guess they were accusing Trump of lying or exaggerating about the Venezuelan gangs allegedly taking over a Colorado apartment building. And then the New York Times said, "We looked into it. That's not true." And then a year later they publish an article saying well you know turns out it's a little bit complicated and we can't really say it's not true. It's true-ish maybe, kind of true, maybe it was fake news. So they might describe what they did a little differently, but the Daily Mail is blaming them for admitting their fake news. That was a big one. As fake news goes that was kind of bold because could they really not figure out what was going on there? Did the New York Times really not have the resources or the talent or the t
