Episode #53 of the Countdown podcast is up.
A-Block (1:35) SPECIAL COMMENT:
- The FBI has an informant! He’s told them that after the subpoena, Trump ordered the boxes of documents moved, and it was all captured on Mar-a-Lago security video! He’s the equivalent of Watergate’s “Deep Throat” — let’s call him “Deep STORAGE”!
- But why does this Washington Post scoop sound so familiar? BECAUSE THIS ISN’T THE FIRST TIME THIS STORY HAS BROKEN.
- On August 10th, we learned there was an informant inside Mar-a-Lago, and a subpoena for security tapes.
- Let me replay the relevant part of the August 11th Countdown commentary, to show that we first encountered “Deep Storage” that moment, and that the only true element to this story is WHAT the informant told the FBI about — moving the boxes.
- So now we ask: did the informant tell the FBI anything that hasn’t been reported? Is there more than one informant? But if there’s only “Deep Storage” — WHO IS IT!?!?!?

C-Block (29:46) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL:
- We’re in the baseball post-season now so I’ll take you back to 1999. In one Yankees-Red Sox series as the host and dugout reporter for Fox, I was a) caught in the middle of a bottle-throwing melee at Fenway Park, b) witness to a Yankee swearing endlessly at a manager, c) visited by a pitcher (El Duque Hernandez) who supposedly didn’t speak English but had a bunch of questions about SportsCenter, and d) was also visited by Bernie Williams, who was so deeply worried that I might be a Red Sox fan that he kept asking me about it even while he was due in the on-deck circle during the 1st Inning.
As Keith himself says: Well, that’s all the damage I can do here for now. Good morning, good afternoon, good night, and good luck.
As he doesn’t say: 27 days until the day after the midterms, when Donald Trump will be arrested (maybe)
