Episode #50 of the Countdown podcast is up.
A-Block (1:30) SPECIAL COMMENT:
- At his Sunday night rally in Mesa, Trump boasted he had boxes of documents at Mar-a-Lago, their contents were all “his.” He is all but daring Merrick Garland to arrest him.
- Mr. Attorney General: saying “I had a small number of boxes at Mar-a-Lago … guarded by Secret Service … they should give me immediately back everything they took from me, because it’s mine” is a CONFESSION.
- We now learn he also offered to TRADE the documents for FBI Russia records.
- And Friday’s conclusion that the FBI was at least ready to search Trump Tower and/or Bedminster was confirmed by Rolling Stone’s report that DOJ is asking witnesses if he had documents in those locales.
- And while Merrick Garland stalls and hesitates, Trump’s minions have dropped the pretense and are joining him on stage to admit they are there to end fair elections.
- And his cult's candidate for Governor of Arizona did something last night that was just this side of posing with a ball-gag in her mouth with the word “TRUMP” written on it.

C-Block (31:58) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL:
- My friendship with the legendary actress Elizabeth Montgomery. How it happened because of the founding of ESPN Radio and the unexpected scoop we got on the first weekend, leading me to do my impression of my high school classmate Chris Berman as he greeted me on my first day at ESPN, and the extraordinary life lesson about fans and memory that she taught me and has stayed with me for 30 years.
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: 30 (or so) days until the day after the midterms, when Donald Trump will be arrested (maybe).
