Each day, KITM brings you to the forefront of the latest news and opinion, unless it’s later than 11 Eastern. So don’t peek at any of that new stuff!
Instead, listen as David Waldman spoons up a subtly, salty KITM, the caviar of podcasts:
Want a wall? Luis Gutierrez has got your wall right here. Just how reasonable are the Republicans? They don’t see that as part of the deal.
Greg Dworkin tells us the Trump shutdown is being driven by a hardline immigration stance, and a tribal battle over what it means to be an American. The two sides are speaking with two languages, while the Dotard in Chief can barely speak one. President Miller and the Republicans should be blamed. The Gop sees Dreamers as criminals on parole. Meanwhile, the shutdown reveals a Democratic Party becoming a little less wussy, maybe even a little... Republican in tactics. The Women’s March voting bloc is set to be bigger than the Tea Party’s by the same ratio of their protest marches. Greg checks the latest polling, with special attention to likely voters.
A Trump appointee will keep government small by not showing up to work. That’s not where they get their paychecks anyhow. Trump thinks Zinke shouldn’t drill in his own backyard.
Armando calls in to count the shutdown votes, say goodbye to the I-Man, and talk caucus vs. primary rules and the future of the Democratic Party.
