LA Chaos: Marines deployed to Anti-ICE riots

The Financial Guys Podcast – June 11th 2025 Recap

In this packed episode of The Financial Guys Podcast, Glenn Wiggle unpacks the chaotic intersection of media distortion, political spin, and public safety, diving into topics ranging from the recent LA riots to the state of America’s food regulations. The conversation is sharp, unapologetic, and rooted in a central theme: what we’re being told doesn’t always match reality.

LA Riots: Free Speech or Free-for-All?

The episode opens with a deep dive into the recent LA riots and how the mainstream media framed them as protests, ignoring the violence, chaos, and fear they caused for local communities. Challenging the way networks sanitize destruction and suggesting many in the media are “actively pushing a narrative instead of reporting the truth.”

“They act like it’s a parade. But for the people who live there, it’s a war zone.”

Law Enforcement & Public Safety

The show critiques how law enforcement is hamstrung by politics. Officers are either told to stand down or left to take the fall when things escalate. The bigger issue? Local leadership isn’t prioritizing safety, and the public is fed up.

“You can’t demand law and order if you’re too scared to enforce it.”

Political Shifts & Immigration Pressures

The episode takes a turn into national policy, noting sharp political shifts in states like Florida and Texas, where people are fleeing high-crime, high-tax areas for safety and sanity

Health, Nutrition & Food Policy Hypocrisy

The guys call out the low standards of U.S. food regulations, comparing them to Europe’s stricter approach. From the FDA’s lax oversight to the poor quality of food in schools, he connects public health decline with corporate lobbying and government inaction.

“In Europe, they ban chemicals we call ingredients. That should tell you everything.”

Final Takeaways

This episode is a wake-up call for Americans tired of being lied to, gaslit, and ignored. Mike and Glenn drive home the need for real accountability, honest media, and stronger leadership.
