Sorry I'm just trying to post this note somewhere where Matt or the staff there will see it.

A different piece of the whole Russiagate Hillary's emails. etc. Very chilling, if true.

Tommy and The Freakometers performing Toning It Down ( it's the flip side though that actually has the hit )

Thomas Friedman makes Howard Stern look like the voice of reason.

Ah you can feel the nostalgia in the air! Matt misses being the sophomoric Gonzo journalist of old! It’s so hard trying to be a real investigative journalists and dealing with facts!

‘Why can’t we all get along!’ you can hear Matt Taibbi say as he wrote this week’s article. ‘Why can’t we all put our head in the sand like I do, and pretend Trump is a normal president, even as he dismantles all checks and balances both economic and political? Even as he poisons our body politics and pits Americans against each other like no president in history?’ Even as he runs our economy based on ignorance, extortion and vendettas and our foreign police based on narcissism?

You can imagine Taibbi furiously trying to protect Richard Nixon in 1972 from being unjustly framed.

And yikes, the CIA thinks, Russia helped Trump! Newsflash, so does Dutch Intelligence— they witnessed GRU hackers break into DNC servers in real time. What does it matter if it was to screw HRC or to help Trump? They de facto helped him as they did every other right wing wacko in Europe. Wake up, Matt.

Matt, why ISN’T there Racket merch.

I’ll trade you a cool Saskatchewan RoughRiders (no it’s not a gay horse club) hat to wear on your show for a Racket t shirt or hat.

Yes. Read the original column published a few minutes before this one.
