At least it’s Friday. Again.
Again.
More work on the World HQ today, as well. Maybe a little hammering. Maybe a little sawing. Maybe a wrecking ball or two. Who knows?
We’ll do our best to keep our composure, and get you braced for another wild weekend.
Listen right here at 9:00 AM ET!

Donald Trump hasn’t hit the bottom yet, he won’t hit it today either, or even tomorrow—Trump will make your head spin, you won’t believe how low he’ll go. Considering the Overton Window is free falling to Hell, yesterday doesn’t look so bad… David Waldman and Greg Dworkin give us their perspective of our collective plummet: Representative Pat Tiberi decides to bail out before impact, Senator Thad Cochran says “Why bother?” Donald Trump was lying about no president ever offering financial support to grieving families, but Donald did break ground with stiffing them on the check. There’s the Trump’s lies about the Gold Star Families, and Trump’s lies about his lying. Trump lies, everybody knows he lies, and America just gets dumber, debating whether he’s a moron or just mentally ill. Fox knows this whole mess is President Hillary Clinton’s fault, while the rest of the media wonders if it might be both Presidents fault equally. Donald thinks you’re kinda cute when you’re angry—anyhow it beats working on stuff. If the Gop can get their tax cuts, they’ll cut that loony loose. Meanwhile, Democrats work to keep the focus on those cuts. Also, the fight over Obamacare isn’t over. Back to the Russian invasion: Russian social media influence worked, it was probably also the subject and focus of collusion. Trump personally thanked a fake Twitter account linked to Russia. A pro-Trump Twitter account with massive clout was run by Russian trolls. A Russian troll factory paid US activists to help fund protests during election. David revisits how Americans Were Tricked Into Working For Russia. It just isn’t collusion without some great partners—Facebook and Google helped an Anti-Refugee campaign in swing states, and Robert Mercer opened his heart and checkbook to just about every treasonous bigoted Nazi he met.
