A nice little read about our friend in the Middle East, Saudi Arabia.

Hmmm... nothing from the champion of women causes Linda Sarsour.

Sarsour isn't some scheming terrible person. The women's March was great.

Took 24 hours for his stupid brain to fall for this trap. It was so obvious someone would ask that. Do that not prepare him?

This and the you'll have news on the tapes in a short time nonsense. Incredible how poorly they prep him.

I'm honestly asking. Would be interesting to listen to now.

Not a big podcast guy, so I don't listen to these every week, but I am subscribed to:

Commentary Magazine Podcast - OK. Comes out twice a week so usually it's current and focused on the issues of the day. All three of them strongly dislike the president. John Podhoretz talks too much.
GLoP Culture - Only comes out once or twice a month so sometimes they're talking about not as recent stuff, and as the title implies they talk movies and TV and other stuff in addition to politics. Probably the only one of these I listen to more than half of the episodes.
The Ricochet Podcast - Sometimes their guests are a bit too pro Trump, and Peter Robinson has been a bit anti-anti Trump on the last few episodes I've listened to, but I like Rob Long and Lileks (sp?) has a great voice.
Mad Dogs and Englishmen - Sometimes interesting takes. Sometimes really dumb. Comes out sporadically.
The Fifth Estate Podcast - Interview based, so really depends on who the guest is, and not all of them are about politics let alone current events.

Guardian app periodically has a "conservative stuff you should read" feature. No, it isn't a podcast, but I find it interesting. I don't know of it is in podcast form, or if he's still anti-trump, but there's jh's buddy Erick Erickson.

I'm conflicted here. I think he is insane enough to have recorded stuff. But also he seems so sure that tapes, if they exist, will vindicate him. But they would have shown them if that's the case, so I tend to believe they don't exist.

There are no tapes*. I think he was just being a smartass lunatic, like he was when he said, "Russia, I hope you can find Hillary's emails."




*but if there are, ohhhhhhhh my
you sure do seem to have a lot of time on your hands to be on this forum? Do you have a job? Are you a shut-in?

No but if somehow he gets tricked into this, like his ego wins out over everyone telling him no, and then says anything he will lie.

So it's a matter of proving those lies wrong.

I mean comey isn't the only one he told to drop the investigation.

It's a big deal if he lies under oath. I hope it means nothing to him and he just continues to lie.

There's more chance of GOP deciding to donate the money from lobbyists to charity and then adopting single payer healthcare than there is of Donald J Trump not lying. The man only knows how to lie, he's not going to change because he's under oath.

Crakalacka, I missed the Trump meet and greet with the press while the Romanian president stood there wondering what was happening. The clips I saw were asinine although he did seem to indicate that there are not "tapes". Not sure if there were other recordings.

Also, I saw that he is taking the weekend off again. Back to his golf course. Part time president.

Big assumption that he's willing to take any effort to be prepared.

Yeah, they clearly try. He mentioned something about American investors in Romania. Said he saw it on a chart someone showed him right before the meeting. He's just so, so dumb.
