Transcript:
The cracks in the economy are getting wider as we now learn that private companies are losing over 13,000 jobs a week. The White House has shut down just about every official economic reporting system that they could. They didn’t like the jobs numbers, they didn’t like the inflation numbers, they don’t want a GDP report, so just shut the entire thing down. And the Fed is going to be making interest rate decisions with no official data, because Trump just doesn’t like the numbers.
Meanwhile, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy has a brilliant plan to fix air travel, no more pajamas on planes, no more slippers on planes, but doing nothing about the actual air traffic control issue.
And meanwhile, the cases from Trump’s DOJ against James Comey and Letitia James have been thrown out. Turns out Trump’s hand-picked prosecutor Lindsey Halligan, wasn’t even legally appointed, and, by the way, is incompetent, and Pam Bondi is pretending like this is only a small and temporary setback.
Donald Trump’s press secretary Karoline Leavitt, having some of the worst 24 hours since she took the job.
And we will also hear from attorney Marc Elias about a major, major case that you are not going to want to miss.
We’ve got a great bonus show for you. Thanksgiving is coming up. I’m wearing a completely outrageous sweater, which will certainly throw 10 to 12% of the audience into an absolute tizzy, and we’re still donating new membership monies received to Feeding America through Thanksgiving trying to do something about hunger in the United States.
