Today is the 2nd Friday that Trump has been a sentenced and convicted felon, but the 34th Friday since Trump was found guilty by a jury of his peers.

It’s now just 57 days until the next time government funding expires, possibly resulting in a government shutdown.

And it’s just 1,483 days until what’s purported to be the end of Trump’s last term in office.

OK, this is it. The last weekend before, well… whatever comes next. For however long it may last.

As always, there’s a long list of stories waiting their turn to break through. Plus a goodly number that require revisiting. Because things got weirder/dumber. Which I think is… going to be a theme. For the next few years.

Today is the 1st Thursday that Trump has been a sentenced and convicted felon, but the 34th Thursday since Trump was found guilty by a jury of his peers.

It’s now just 58 days until the next time government funding expires, possibly resulting in a government shutdown.

And it’s just 1,484 days until what’s purported to be the end of Trump’s last term in office.

It’s almost the weekend, again. At least as far as Greg Dworkin is concerned. We have new Cabi-Nut nominees who were terrible, and of course all the one who were terrible earlier in the week, as well.

Plus there’s a South African undocumented migrant sabotaging US international relations, now. And he might technically president. Along with the other two guys.

Things must be getting tense in the Perv-A-Lago buffet line!

Today is the 1st Wednesday that Trump has been a sentenced and convicted felon, a.k.a., the 33rd Wednesday since Trump was found guilty by a jury of his peers.

It’s now just 59 days until the next time government funding expires, possibly resulting in a government shutdown.

And it’s just 1,485 days until what’s purported to be the end of Trump’s last term in office.

Well, that Hegseth guy sure is a piece of… work! Greg Dworkin will be with us today, and I assume he’ll have a thing or two to say about that whole scene. Or at least, he’ll know a thing or two that other people said about it, and why the things they said matter.

As we know, the pace of crazy is picking up. But yesterday was a busy day on the Big Story front. So now, we’ve got a lot of catching up to do.

Which is too bad, since we’ll never be caught up again! (Until, well… you know.)

Welcome to the 1st Tuesday that Trump has been a sentenced and convicted felon, a.k.a., the 33rd Tuesday since Trump was found guilty by a jury of his peers.

It’s now just 60 days until the next time government funding expires, possibly resulting in a government shutdown. Two months!

And it’s just 1,486 days until what’s purported to be the end of Trump’s last term in office. Progress!

Tuesdays are one of those days where I have even more time than usual to describe to you just how deviant the new Trump reality is, and how much of what you always used to think of as the very fabric of society might never have meant anything at all.

Ha ha!

I can’t believe nobody blogged about this in Rome.

Today is what we thought was the 33rd Monday that Trump has been a convicted felon.

But last week, we found out that technically, today is really just the first Monday that Trump has been a convicted felon!

It’s now just 61 days until the next time government funding expires, possibly resulting in a government shutdown. Two months!

And it’s just 1,487 days until what’s purported to be the end of Trump’s last term in office. Uh… getting there, I guess.

Here we are on Monday, again. Technically, there’s time for one more Monday show before Elon Musk becomes president. Greg Dworkin will help us round up a relatively low-chaos weekend, considering how close we are to the next Trump era. Susie Wiles must almost think she’s in control, or something!

Duh!

Today is the 33rd Friday that Trump has been a convicted felon. And today just may be the day we seal the deal on that! Thanks to an uncomfortably closely-divided Supreme Court that very, very nearly blew the call! Again!

It’s 64 days until the next time government funding expires, possibly resulting in a government shutdown!

And now just 1,490 days until what’s purported to be the end of Trump’s last term in office. We’ve ticked ten days off the total since 1,500!

Anyway, TGIF! It’s our last chance for the week to catch up. Now, if we can get the California fires to agree to take the weekend off, we’ll really have something going.

Today is the 33rd Thursday that Trump has been a convicted felon. And I have some bad news about that. For America.

It’s 65 days until the next time government funding expires, possibly resulting in a government shutdown!

A mere 1,491 days until what’s purported to be the end of Trump’s last term in office.

Greg Dworkin ushers in another weekend. We’ll probably threaten to invade two more countries before he returns on Monday, so let’s make the most of it!

Today is the 32nd Wednesday that Trump has been a convicted felon.

It’s 66 days until the next time government funding expires, possibly resulting in a government shutdown!

In fourteen-hundred ninety-two... days from now, if we’re lucky, we’ll re-discover America.

And it’s time for Greg Dworkin to return, this time with January 6th in the rear view mirror, but with the era of “wide-ranging, free-wheeling” Trump pressers closer than they appear, and ready to pass us on the right.

Yeah, the crazy is fully back. Along with stern warnings not to let it “distract” us from… some other subset of the crazy.

Today is the 32nd Tuesday that Trump has been a convicted felon.

And now… it’s 67 days until the next time government funding expires, possibly resulting in a government shutdown!

Only 1,493 days until the Constitution says we’re supposed to be done with Donald Trump once and for all.

Today’s January 7th, which should have been the day we really remember.

And it’s snowy, again. Surely a sign!

So, we’re on the legal glidepath to the next Trump presidency. And once again, he’s proving himself a world historical sore winner.

Which means that once again, there’s lots to catch up with, and the zone is flooding every day.

Today is the 32nd Monday that Trump has been a convicted felon.

And now… it’s 68 days until the next time government funding expires, possibly resulting in a government shutdown!

Only 1,494 days until the Constitution says we’re supposed to be done with Donald Trump once and for all.

And… it’s January 6th.

A snowy one, at that. Can you imagine if the whole January 6th insurrection had been undone by weather?

Anyway, this one is much more peaceful, and not just because of the snow. Even though, maybe, it really shouldn’t be.

Greg Dworkin will be on hand to report weather conditions to the north, and tamp down on rioting activity.

Today is the 32nd Friday that Trump has been a convicted felon.

And now… it’s 71 days until the next time government funding expires, possibly resulting in a government shutdown!

Only 1,497 days until the Constitution says we’re supposed to be done with Donald Trump once and for all.

It’s the first Friday of the year, too. Woohoo! Weekend!

But first, another first: the first visit with Ian Reifowitz! It’s been a little while, and the Distinguished Professor (of Historical Studies) has only gotten more distinguished! And so has history, so it’s a perfect match.

We’ll catch up on the book progress, of course. And, oh yeah, Trump got elected again since we spoke last. Terrible for America, and not all that great for history, either. And Ian oughta know.

Today is the 32nd Thursday that Trump has been a convicted felon.

And now… it’s 72 days until the next time government funding expires, possibly resulting in a government shutdown!

Only 1,498 days until the Constitution says we’re supposed to be done with Donald Trump once and for all. 1,400 days is almost in sight!

And now… the first Thursday of 2025! How does it feel? It’s now officially “almost the weekend.” It might be nice to take a short break from explosions and attacks today, if we think we can manage that, America.

Greg Dworkin hasn’t been heard from all year! We’ll see if we can end his lengthy holdout today, and lift the terrorism and chaos jinx that his absence has so clearly caused.
