Good morning, America (for now). How are you?
Looks like we’re about this close to Trump shooting a perfect 18 this weekend, if you know what I mean.
Hang in there, USA! I don’t want to have to explain to Greg Dworkin how we lost the country while he was away. Do you?
Yeah, I didn’t think so!
Listen right here at 9:00 AM ET!
Where else can you get live, unvarnished news, commentary and opinion from Daily Kos editors David Waldman, Greg Dworkin, Joan McCarter, and even Armando?
Well, sure, you could get that at Daily Kos. And this is Daily Kos.
But that doesn’t count, because reasons. Besides, reading is overrated! Except for what you’re reading right now, that is.

Donald Trump, not the sharpest tool in the shed, sat down for yet another exclusive interview with his nemesis, The New York Times. This should produce a bit of “real news” today, so go ahead and read the excerpts to soak in the dumbness. Six months in, Trump hasn't passed a single bill of 10 he promised to pass in his first 100 days, not even TreasonCare. Trump can’t make a health care deal because he doesn’t understand health care. Not much Gop legislation is probably a good thing, but that leaves David Waldman and KITM to explore the seamy underbelly of the Trump organization… Irakly “Ike” Kaveladze is the 8th person to pop out of the Russian collusion meeting tied to Donald Trump Jr., and might be most important in defining what happened. Did wishful thinking and conspiracy sites lead Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner, and Paul Manafort to arrange the meeting? Paul Manafort owed big bucks to pro-Russia interests before he became President Donald Trump’s campaign chairman—then he made (exactly the same number of) big bucks. Then there’s Dana Rohrabacher, who hooked up with Putin before it was cool. Rohrabacher’s aide was tossed under the bus over Russia connections, but that won’t be enough to cover Dana’s tracks to Moscow last year, a secret document he received, his attempt to alter sanctions legislation and to set up a virtual show trial on Capitol Hill. Dana Rohrabacher is dirty… very, very dirty. Banks made billions of student debt disappear with this one weird trick.
