Kick in some money and you’d be amazed at what we at KITM can do.
David Waldman reads viewer mail, in which we hear Greg Dworkin’s dog Abby is more than just a doorbell: she’s 50% pointer, 50% retriever, and 100% attractive to skunks. David explains Nike swooshes, French pop music, how some Steve Millers are better than others, and why our loving wives keep pointing us toward more lucrative careers, like perhaps, Walmart greeters.
We discover little about the Five Brothers Waldman, other than Paul Waldman may not be one. Paul, however, gives us a heads up on the QAnon buzzword/Republican dog whistle “groomer”, which will spread like wildfire when your aunt thinks she learned a new dirty word. Madison Cawthorn did break the first rule of Republican Sex Cult, which in turn got him called to Kevin McCarthy’s office… and not just for hookers and blow either. Primaries are the bus Republicans are most often thrown under.
Mick Mulvaney must still be invited to the parties, because that is exactly the advantage CBS sees in him. Some at CBS just don’t get the benefit of access journalism though.
The DOJ is expanding its January 6 probe to include the insurrection rally. It looks like a few of Donald Trump’s phone calls fell off of the White House log. Trump is in so much trouble that the only person he can turn to is… Vladimir Putin. Vlad has enough problems at the moment, however. His Russian army can’t capture a town twenty miles away. They’re using tree branches and carpet remnants for camouflage and are slapping together ISIS-level hardware to fight. Most of their soldiers there don’t know why they are there, and thousands more are being shanghaied to join them. Meanwhile, Putin’s right wing want him to up the viciousness.
Renault is divesting from AvtoVAZ, which will take Russia another step closer to Borat levels. The people and businesses in Germany are cutting back in order to give Russia a little less. Russia has wanted out of talks with Japan over the Kuril Islands since WWII, and figured this time is as good as any to slide out.
Joe Rogan might not be the medical expert many hoped for, as Ivermectin is shown to be ineffective on Covid.
