About this listen

 On the TMI Show with Ted Rall and Manila Chan today, we’ve got a political curveball from the impeachment era, a bizarre environmental crisis rooted in cartel history, a new twist in workplace benefits, and a case of AI identity going off the rails.

First: Newly declassified memos are raising serious questions about the 2019 impeachment case against President Trump. The FBI says it’s now reviewing evidence that was previously withheld — including claims that the whistleblower relied on hearsay, showed potential bias, and made statements that were not fully disclosed at the time. We break down what’s actually new here, and what it could mean for how that entire episode is viewed in hindsight.

Then: Colombia is dealing with one of the strangest ecological problems on Earth — Pablo Escobar’s hippos. What started as a handful of animals left behind on his estate has turned into a population of around 200, now officially classified as an invasive species. After years of failed attempts to control them, the government is moving forward with a plan to cull up to 80 hippos, sparking backlash from animal rights groups.

Also today: Ozempic has officially entered the job market. A new survey shows nearly half of Gen Z workers say coverage for GLP-1 drugs could influence where they work, with some even willing to take a pay cut to get it. That raises a bigger question: when people are choosing between healthcare access and basic benefits like PTO… what does that say about the system?

And finally: a Dutch politician is out after using AI to dramatically alter her campaign photo. She insisted it was still her — voters and her own party disagreed. The result: expulsion, backlash, and a reminder that AI isn’t just changing how we work… it’s starting to blur who we are.
