There’s no better way to begin a week than with a Monday spent waiting for the cable guy. Friday’s Internet failure lingers on, but I’m holding out hope that a friendly WiFi signal might get us through a live show this morning, and that things will be put back in working order today. Between the hours of 1-3, as a matter of fact!
Well, we’ll see about that.
In the meantime, let’s see if this plan works.
Listen LIVE right here at 9:00 AM ET!
Who was it that I saw saying that they wished they knew of a quick and easy way to support the Kagro in the Morning show?
Was that you?
I thought so!
Well, now you can help justify the continued occupation of the “family room” at KITM World Headquarters by our “high-tech studio” with simple and easy PayPal donations, or recurring, monthly subscriptions! For you hipsters, we offer the same monthly option, but with a fancier name, through the KITM Patreon account!
And remember, the more of you who contribute, the less I feel like an idiot for doing this. Come on, that’s important!

Apologies, everyone! Seems ye olde Internets came untubed this morning, and we weren’t able to put on a live show, or have Greg Dworkin provide his regular morning roundup. But I did manage to put together a podcast for you, and hobbled through the uploading process thanks to a handy-dandy (but not very fast) portable hotspot device. Greg provided me with his usual raft of top headlines, so we were able to read and discuss coverage of yesterday’s West Coast events: Hillary Clinton’s foreign policy/Hairspray von Clownstick-pounding speech, and the Cheatin’ Cheesepuff’s very own rally and the post-event trouble that accompanied it. With all of that to discuss, we barely even touched on the pathetic knuckling-under of our third highest-ranking Constitutional officer, “Speaker” of the “House” Paul Ryan. Trump complicated matters for everyone, with his reckless assault on the federal judge presiding over the Trump “University” case. Speaking of which, did you know there were people still defending it? And some of them aren’t even Trumps, themselves! But they’re the next best thing, in The Donald’s eyes: vassals beholden to him. Turning to news in the Democratic contest, there’s more speculation about “disruption” being contemplated at the convention. How serious a problem might that really be? At the same time, there’s also some careful strategizing with an eye toward the eventual call for unity, the sub-plot of which is that superdelegates really do for the most part work pretty much as we’ve discussed.
