A-Block (1:29) SPECIAL COMMENT: If she won’t revoke his pre-trial release, Judge Upadhyaya must at least bring Donald Trump into court and issue a gag order against him on social media and in public and warn him that if he threatens the judges again, or the prosecutors again, or witnesses again, or the court again, or the department of justice again, or the President again — or as he has done in the three days after she warned him to do none of those things, threaten ALL of them — she will incarcerate him. Nothing else will make the point to him, and whatever the results are, that’s fine.

Scott Adams hinting at civil war and sharpening 50,000 sketch pencils is fine. These blood-lusting fascists forget who owns all the tanks at the moment. Also: of COURSE Trump has hired another idiot as a lawyer. His defense for the January 6th indictments is that he was idiotically following the idiot advice of an idiot lawyer in John Eastman [who has admitted that yes, it was a coup attempt]. Naturally he’s going to bring in a new guy (John Lauro) who said something so stupid yesterday he invoked Jeffrey Tambor in “Arrested Development” saying he might have committed some light treason.

And Ron DeSantis is not quite dead to Iowa Republicans, for some reason, despite saying stupid things like, “ I happened to be in San Francisco a month or two ago, and within ten minutes of me being in the city, I see some guy relieving himself on the sidewalk with number two. ”

No word whether it was Ron “Sardine Snot” DeSantis who squatted and pinched a loaf. Or whether Elon Musk’s plan of shining a large fluorescent X actually cuts down on the problem. (/s for that last part)

B-Block (21:51) IN SPORTS: USA-hating conservatives exult in Soccer team’s loss in World Cup because … they are lost souls. For the first time all year the words “Tim Anderson” and “Hit” are used in the same sentence. And Robin Ventura is now the happiest man in sports. And the Mets are going to run the table, aren’t they? 0-57, right?

Not if my team (the KC Royals) goes back to their usual playing style.

From that article: “But [Devon Archer] spoke at length with committee attorneys about the value the Biden family name brought to their business transactions.”

Now, can you think of any other President who used his last name as a brand? Bonus question: How about one that has been indicted three times?

C-Block (33:56) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: ESPN Radio will now by run by non-ESPN people, which flashes me back to the day we launched it in 1992 and THAT flashes me back to WHY I happened to meet the wonderful actress Elizabeth Montgomery.

EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY

That’s all the damage for now. Good morning, good afternoon, good night, and good luck!
