Today’s podcast appears to be commercial-free.
A-Block (0:00) SPECIAL COMMENT: Is Jack Smith preparing a THIRD set of indictments against Trump? Maybe a FOURTH? The Grand Jury which indicted Trump LAST week is still meeting this week; they were in there yesterday. And Smith is deep in the weeds on Trump de-frauding his cultists and getting them to give him money to fix a “stolen election” he knew damn well WASN’T stolen. But the Special Counsel is also clearly still looking at how Trump tried to stop the transfer of presidential power. And Fani Willis will reportedly go to HER Atlanta Grand Jury as early as Tuesday. While they’re already blocking roads around the courthouse, Trump is already pre-smearing her, and he's already forgotten that he demanded the indictment of Joe Biden in October 2020.
Plus: Trump has already pre-contempted a court order that hasn’t been issued yet. He says even if Judge Chutkan restricts what he can and can’t talk about, he’ll talk about it. The hearing is Friday.
Re-indicted cause it feels so good. And yes, I’m singing that.
Maybe you’d prefer listening to the original song instead.
B-Block (16:36) IN SPORTS: A chant of “Free Kevin Brown” broke out at the Baltimore Orioles’ game last night. Their suspended play-by-play man will be back Friday, but that was the plan all along. And his suspension points to the plan in far too many baseball, basketball, and hockey TV booths: All reporting, all criticism, in fact anything not gushingly glowing about the home team will result in suspension. It’s been coming for a century and it’s here: The sports play-by-play broadcast is there only to brainwash you that your team is perfect, always has been, and you need to give it more money.
That explains why laughter always breaks out at Kaufmann Stadium.
At this point in the podcast, Worst Persons starts, but then there’s an edit and we hear the end of In Sports. At 32:42, the complete Worst Persons segment starts.
(32:42) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: The words you never want to hear from Matt Schlapp: I’m hanging out. Mike Pence makes a funny about January 6; too bad he didn’t DO something about it.
He’s also put out an ad for his campaign, which also is a bit lean on the honesty. (“Gas was $2 a gallon, then Biden came along.”) And in the ad, Pence fills up his truck at a gas station, but never pays for the gas, nor does he select a grade of fuel before grabbing the pump and inserting it into the tank of his truck.
And mega-fraud God-salesman Franklin Graham attacks the U.S. Women’s Soccer Team. Jesus would punch him in the face. C-Block (37:59) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY
(39:21) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: It is now 35 years since I got the greatest scoop of my career, using the least amount of effort. The Wayne Gretzky Trade!
That’s all the damage for now. Good morning, good afternoon, good night, and good luck!
