EDIT: Keith evidently has fun changing the titles. His YouTube video gave a subtitle of “Weaponization Committee Hit By Its Own Weapon”, but the real name of the episode seems to be “Republicans Weaponize Committee — Against Themselves”. (This reminds me of Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoons.) — P.
Episode #131 of the Countdown podcast is up at iHeart Radio.

A preview from the man himself:
A-Block
- (1:31) SPECIAL COMMENT: The latest on Trump Special Counsel Smith subpoenaing Mike Pence. And the Republicans extended their collective self-own to 48 hours as “The Weaponization Subcommittee” meets and points the weapon at itself. The star FBI whistleblower witness turns out to have retired from the bureau in 1999 and gets decimated by Rep. Dan Goldman; the star “Twitter Legal” expert turns out to be Jonathan Turley and he gets destroyed by Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz. As Tulsi Gabbard testifies, a Republican literally falls asleep; as Chuck Grassley testifies he insists Hillary Clinton colluded with the Russians in 2016 to make sure she … lost?
- It’s worse than a farce; it’s a farce that even Fox News won’t televise. And it hides the reality that there SHOULD be a weaponization investigation and it should be pointed at the Barr-Durham Investigation, and that the ever-unfolding story of the arrested ex-FBI agent Charles McGonigal. New reporting on McGonigal suggests he could have been a blackmail victim, and that those two separate criminal indictments (working for Trump-friendly Russian Oleg Deripaska, and meddling in Albanian politics) may actually be part of only one giant conspiracy.
McGonigal evidently helped Make Albania Great Again. No joke.

But what about Flaco??? What happened to Owl Watch ‘23, Keith???

- (30:32) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: Snaggle [name fixed], looking to be adopted in Miami, FL, and Paw Patrol Animal Rescue and Sanctuary
- (31:52) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Rudy Giuliani gets his “preserve all documents” lawyer letter from Hunter Biden’s attorney. You may think Rudy went bad in 2020, or 2007, or some time after his peak in 9/11. Actually — trust me — even I knew he was a hallucinating jerk, as long ago as 1995.
Flashback from 2020 …
Well, that’s all the damage for now. Good morning, good afternoon, good night, and good luck.
