United Airlines faced a social media backlash after a gate agent barred two girls in leggings from boarding a flight. The airline clarified that the passengers were "pass riders" (employees or relatives) subject to a specific corporate dress code. The hosts explain that these benefits often require professional attire, such as ties for men, which the general public ignored in their outrage.

Shannon Watts, the founder of Moms Demand Action and a former Monsanto PR executive, is utilizing the Isla Vista tragedy to advance gun control legislation. Her organization recently merged with Michael Bloomberg's gun safety initiatives, creating a powerful political lobbying force. The rhetoric used by Watts and other activists is viewed as part of a broader strategy to mobilize female voters for a potential Hillary Clinton presidential run.
