I'll give that a listen during shop time today thanks for sharing. I'm familiar with some of the origin story, but not all. Specifically what I am hoping they (or someone trusted) will cover is the HPSCI report that the admin is out there pushing now. Might just be a rehash of the same old stuff from 2020 but because the push is that Obama should be jailed over it, there's very much a boy who cried wolf feel to it

Wow I didn't know they were trying to lock up obama for russia gate, doubt they have much of a case because there's not really a smoking gun since plenty of media outlets pushed russia gate because it aligned with their interests (and good ratings too). Hope it happen anyway though

Same, this is what I was getting at with the insane crankery. They've been talking about locking Obama up now for years so this is probably just more of the same, but maybe not who the fuck knows. The point is we need some real gumshoes with a knack for wading into right wing slop to do some real investigation

A gumshoe you say deep-infiltration
