S2E45 on Omny.FM (which also links to his previous podcasts)

ivoox also carries his podcast.

YouTube, eventually.

Preview:

A-Block SPECIAL COMMENT: “Join the ultimate strike against the globalist class,” Trump shouted at his crowd in Michigan. And of course that is a double dogwhistle because to antisemites like Trump, “Globalist” means Jews, but also has a CLEAN meaning: dealing with the interconnections of the modern world, internationally. And he got away with “strike” there because he was nominally addressing the labor action by the United Auto Workers. Of course if you think he was telling his cult of thugs to take labor action against those dealing with the interconnections of the modern world, congratulations on awakening from your nine-year coma. Trump began to covertly attack Jewish people as soon as his presidential campaign began, he threatened globalists at the United Nations, this is nothing new.

But the use of the term “ultimate strike” should set off any remaining alarm bells that have not been ringing continuously all this time. This is not a complicated calculation: if Trump determined that he could get elected by beginning a full-fledged attack on Jewish people, Jewish influence, he’d do it. When we speak of him as having the soul of a mass murderer, that’s what we mean. People do not have any actual VALUE to him. Re-enact the holocaust in whole or in part? To get re-elected? To stay out of jail? Of course he’d do that. And to any group you could name. If he became convinced that he could regain the White House by rounding up and killing all the … left-handed people, he’d do it.

He also seems to have something against electric boats. Yes, you read that right.

From that article: “Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) and Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) got in a heated exchange during a Thursday morning conference meeting, with the Florida Republican accusing the speaker of paying influencers to attack him on social media.”

Isn’t that what we’ve been doing here on DK — for free — ever since … um … I’m not sure how long, but ever since Matt Gaetz started acting like a jerk? Publicly, I mean. (I imagine he was a ferocious fetus.)

THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL, PART 1: Saturday is Stevie Day. You've heard this story before? Well here’s your chance to hear it again. A boy and his first dog (ok, the boy was 53). C-Block THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL, PART 2: Stevie makes her cameo.

That’s all the damage for now. Good morning, good afternoon, good night, and good luck!
