Thursday game plan:
1. Read the news.
2. ???
3. Radio show!
Listen LIVE right here at 9:00 AM ET!
From now on, it will cost you $1,000 per episode to listen to the Kagro in the Morning show on Daily Kos Radio. But for loyal readers of Daily Kos, we’ve reduced that price to... absolutely free!
Why would we make such an amazing offer? Reasons!
But perhaps you’re concerned that such a fantastic deal is too good to be true. That it’s unsustainable. Well, worry no more! We here at Daily Kos Radio will do anything to help set your mind at ease about sustainability, up to and including accepting your PayPal donations, or even recurring, monthly support! For you hipsters, we offer the same monthly option, but with a fancier name, through the KITM Patreon account!
There are thousands of you downloading the podcast and listening to the show live each day, five days a week. That’s about 20 shows each month, so on a per-show basis, mere pocket change from each listener is all it would take to turn this from a pleasant pastime into something my family wouldn’t shake their heads and sigh about.
Give it some thought, won’t you? Thanks!

David Waldman and KITM observes May 4th, the one day Star Wars fans get to talk like Sylvester the Cat. Greg Dworkin has the news and numbers out of the Indiana primaries: Cruz supporters head into Cleveland with the rest of the vanquished. Ted helped create the monster that devoured him. Ted Cruz could destroy the conservative movement with his next choice. Republican donors won’t give a dime to Trump. Hillary Clinton has pivoted toward the presidential election, and is looking at positive data for her, and Democrats. It still won’t be a walk in the park, you know. If you prefer graphs and charts to aid in your political considerations, check out this trove of illuminating material from RAND. Do you prefer graphs and charts to aid in the contemplation of your own death? OK. The first rule of the Cleveland RNC Convention? A) There are no rules. B) They would never change the rules. C) They will use Robert’s Rules. D) All of the above. The RNC hopes to provide the drama their audience craves. Trump might skip the next couple conventions. David spots RNC member Enid Greene , AKA Enid Mickelsen, AKA Enid Waldholtz. The Republicans should nominate Merrick Garland while they still have a chance. Bill de Blasio nearly endorsed Bernie Sanders for president. NYC elections official suspended over primary voting issues. Neither goodness nor gun ownership makes one bulletproof. Oh, something about John Kasich. All this is pretty piddly when you consider a Canadian city is on fire.
