The Halli Casser-Jayne Show

Welcome to this special edition of The Halli Casser-Jayne Show Podcast Ukraine at War. My guest this week is Franz Sedelmayer, once a close friend and business partner of Vladimir Putin, until the friendship and business relationship met with the reality of the economic jiu jitsu of the newly-elected President Boris Yeltsin and the political and economic ambitions of Putin, Sedelmayer's considerable assets soon expropriated by the new government. Sedelmayer went to war with Putin to retrieve what was his and won, waging a 20-year campaign against the Kremlin and Putin, ultimately winning more than 100 court cases and foreclosing on Russian state property in Western Europe, becoming, for the record, the only individual ever to collect money from Vladimir Putin's Russia. Franz knows Putin and understands Russia in ways others don't. The discussion you are about to hear is brutally frank and in parts disturbing, as reality often is. Joe President Biden, President Zelenskyy, Vladimir Putin, NATO, we scrutinize the performance of all the players. What have they done right? What have they done wrong? Where do we go from here. Let's talk with Franz Sedelmayer. Listen here >> https://bit.ly/3uo9CbX

You win some, you lose some and that's what happened in the off-year election, the Democrats losing the Virginia governorship but holding onto New Jersey. And then the spin began and that's where we begin our conversation this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast when Halli and her partner in politics, former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper sit down to discuss the latest political news. You win some, you lose some. Question: Who is the better spinner, Democrats or Republicans? Is the glass half-empty or half-full? Republican Glenn Youngkin defeated former Democratic Governor McAuliff, but history shows that the party in power in Washington almost always loses the Virginia off-year elections. It's been 40 years since a Democrat one two consecutive terms in New Jersey. Governor Phil Murphy did. But on the theme of good news and bad news, the Covid-19 vaccination for children has been approved, but despite a growing vaccination rate in the U.S. and abroad, Covid-19 is on the rise in Europe. The House is expected to finally pass the Infrastructure Bill and the Build Back Better Plan. That's good news. The bad news: They didn't pass either prior to the election. There's more news on Donald Trump, on voting rights legislation, climate change, the Steele Dossier, the January 6 Committee… You win some, you lose some. Will the Democrats be able to win over West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin? Will NYSD lose in its efforts to indict former President Trump? Jobs, jobs, jobs! There is a lot more in political news.

Democrats: Quit your damn whining and pop that cork. It ain't perfect, but it appears that President Joe Biden is about to snatch an important victory from the jaws of defeat and his Build Back Better Plan will soon become one of the largest pieces of legislation passed by a President of the United States ever. Is it what everyone wanted? No, but there's enough in Build Back Better for every Democrat to claim victory and that's where we begin our conversation this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast when Halli and her partner in politics, former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper sit down to discuss the latest political news. It's been a long slog. And, it isn't exactly over. But it's a pretty certain bet that Build Back Better is about to be passed, despite the team of S & M, Senators Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin's efforts to put the kibosh on the legislation every step along the way. There's more in political news. Where oh where is Steve Bannon and why is the January 6 Committee still talking about what they will do, but don't do? Halli wonders if the Committee is afraid of the answers they will surely find. Wait until you hear what Matt has to say when Halli asks him what should happen to former President Trump if the committee can prove he attempted a coup. There's Covid19 news to discuss. Tucker Carlson is a topic. Can former Virginia Governor Terry McAuliff pull off the win? Alec Baldwin, Ron DeSantis, the relationship between Vice President Harris and POTUS are part of the discussion. And the economy.

Limbo is a place in political hell and that's just where we begin this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast when Halli and her partner in politics, former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper sit down to discuss the latest political news. Build Back Better, infrastructure, reconciliation, waiting…waiting…waiting. Waiting is torture, and waiting we are to see just how that dynamic S & M duo, Senator Manchin of West Virginia and Senator Sinema of Arizona will actually vote. Waiting to see what the Jan. 6th Committee does when Republicans defy their subpoenas. Waiting to see if Covid19 is really on the retreat. Waiting, waiting, waiting…and that's not a good place for the Democrats to be. Will getting their agenda passed, far less than what they initially promised, fix the frustration? And as their agenda remains in limbo, what of the Republicans who never missed an opportunity to grab the headlines and push their message while the Democrats clutch pearls. No, limbo is not a good place for Democrats to be. Tune in. We're always lively and honest on The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast with Matthew Cooper.

Bring out the bagels and lox. Settle in. We've got a lot to get to. Oy, that Democratic Party and all its mishigas. What a week of drama they brought us all, including that S & M duo and all their torturing: Senators Joe Manchin and Kysteren Sinema. There will be a vote and there won't -- hostage taking at its best, and that's just where we begin this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast when joining Halli at her table to discuss the latest political news is her partner in politics former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper. Definition of the Yiddish word mishigas: craziness; silliness; tomfoolery; nonsense. We surely did get a lot of that from the Democratic Party this week and a lesson in the art of war as the two factions of the party, the liberals and the moderates went at each other, more like a clown fight than two gladiators after each other in a coliseum. Caught in the middle, as usual, are We the People. We ought to worry when the Democrats control the House, the Senate and the Executive Branch of government and they can't bring home the much-needed infrastructure package and the social programs most Americans have been waiting for for far too long. Is all lost? Probably not. But have the Democrats given the Republicans who know how to turn fodder into gold bullion on a platter their ammunition? Tune in.

America is like a hamster on a wheel, round and round it goes and where it stops nobody knows. Covid19, the debt ceiling fight, infrastructure, immigration, Trump. We all know what ails us, but the problems never get solved. Outrage and frustration have become most Americans constant companions and that's just where we begin this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast when joining Halli at her table to discuss the latest political news is her partner in politics former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper. Round and round we go, our so-called leaders fighting the same old battles. Mask mandates or not? Vaccine mandates or not? Raise the debt ceiling or not? Immigration reform? Pass an infrastructure bill? Abolish Roe v. Wade? Arrest Former President Trump for sedition. Wasn't Matt Gaetz supposed to have been arrested weeks ago? Halli sees America as stuck, Matt has other ideas. Do we expect enough from our leaders, or too much? It's a spirited conversation. Tune in. It's always lively on The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast with Matthew Cooper. America like a hamster on a wheel.

IT'S MOURNING AGAIN IN AMERICAIt's mourning again in America as the Covid-19 Pandemic takes it's toll on America and refrigeration trucks are deployed all across the country as people die unnecessarily from the virus and morgues are overwhelmed. Welcome to the effects of Republican madness and The Halli Casser-Jayne Show and that's just where we begin this week when joining Halli at her table to discuss the latest political news is her partner in politics former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper. We mourn. We mourn those who have lost their lives to Covid-19 unnecessarily when a simple jab in the arm might have saved their lives. We mourn the loss of Texas women's right to choose what happens to their bodies as the Supreme Court eviscerates by a shadow vote Roe v. Wade. We mourn for the lives lost twenty years ago, the 2,750 people who were killed in New York, 184 at the Pentagon, and 40 in Pennsylvania when America was attacked by terrorists. But we also celebrate. There is a vaccine to thwart a ruthless virus. American women are strong and will stand up and fight for their rights, and there are a lot of men who will stand up with them. The terrorists hit us hard, but we fought back and though America has lots of demons to fight right here at home, we are still here.It's mourning again in America. But we will survive Covid-19, reckless, cynical governors like Ron DeSantis and Gregg Abbott, a Supreme Court that has turned itself into a lowly Night Court.

The dog days of Ron DeSantis are upon us. While the Governor of Florida mandates no mask mandates, Florida hospitals crumble under the weight of Covid-19 cases. Schools open and parents anguish, send their kids to public schools or not, a Sophie's Choice question forced on moms and dads statewide due to the Florida governor's malfeasance. Welcome to Republican madness and The Halli Casser-Jayne Show and that's just where we begin this week when joining Halli at her table to discuss the latest political news is her partner in politics former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper.Yes, it's August and the dog days of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis are upon us. Remember, what happens in Florida does not stay in Florida. Holding fast to the governor's mandate of a no mask mandate despite the objections of health officials nationwide, Florida Covid-19 cases surge to their highest levels since the pandemic began, the Delta variant more virulent than earlier strains of the virus. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) nearly twenty-five thousand new cases were reported in one day in Florida, some 15,449 residents hospitalized with only 230 of 261 hospitals reporting their COVID patients and nearly 90 percent of the state's intensive care unit beds filled. Over 600 Floridians died this week, the total Florida Covid-19 deaths now over 40,000, a catastrophe of one man's bad judgment, Governor Ron DeSantis. Will he reverse course? Halli and Matt ponder that question and slice and dice the other political news of the week, and there is much. Tune in.The dog days of Ron DeSantis, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo resigns, the bipartisan passage of Joe Biden's Infrastructure bill, Matt Gaetz, the Afghanistan tragedy, Rand Paul as squirrel, inflation, and for comic relief a little bit on Rudy Giuliani.

We're only as sick as our darkest secrets and our lies takes on a whole new meaning this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Show Podcast when joining me at my table to discuss the latest political news is my partner in politics former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper, and in our second half-hour Pulitzer Prize winning author of the extraordinary book WILMINGTON'S LIE, THE MURDEROUS COUP OF 1898 AND THE RISE OF WHITE SUPREMACY, David Zucchino. Trump, Fox News hosts, the entire Republican Party have been lying to their supporters about Covid-19 and the safety and efficacy of the Covid-19 vaccine. But now the chickens, as they say, have come home to roost. Thanks to reluctant MAGAs, a virus that could be easily eradicated thanks to the vaccine is infecting the unvaccinated with a vengeance and those who took the vaccine are finding themselves at greater risk due to the recalcitrant Republicans and the new Covid variant. It's nonsensical. Why are Republican leaders and Fox News hosts lying to their own, when they themselves are vaccinated? Tune in to hear Halli go off on that subject and more, including the first January 6 Select Committee hearing, where more Republican secrets and lies are being uncovered.In our second half-hour Halli introduces you to Pulitzer Prize winning, North Carolina author DAVID ZUCCHINO. A contributing writer for the New York Times, Zucchino has covered wars and civil conflicts in more than three dozen countries and is a four-time Pulitzer Prize finalist for his reporting in Iraq, Lebanon, Africa, and inner-city Philadelphia. And now he has won yet another coveted Pulitzer for his extraordinary non-fiction national bestselling book WILMINGTON'S LIE, THE MURDEROUS COUP OF 1898 AND THE RISE OF WHITE SUPREMACY, a gripping account of one of the most disturbing, though virtually unknown, political events in American history. David writes brilliantly, he is an even better talker. This is an interview you don't want to miss. We're only as sick as our secrets and lies. Covid-19, the January 6 Commission, infrastructure, Florida, Governor Ron DeSantis, this week in Tucker Carlson, white supremacy and that's just where we begin.

Have the Republicans had a come-to-Jesus-moment on the Covid-19 vaccine? That question sets us up for a rollicking conversation on Covid-19, possible mask mandates, the state of the Republican Party and oh, so much more this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Show podcast, when joining me at my table for the full hour to discuss the latest political news is my partner in politics former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper. After a year of poo-pooing the efficacy and need of the Covid-19 vaccine, with Fox News hosts actually saying Covid-19 was a hoax and the vaccine unnecessary, Fox hosts are touting the vaccine's effectiveness, including Sean Hannity. Right-wing Trump fanatics like Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La) are getting jabbed publicly, just as the extremely infectious Covid-19 Delta variant takes hold, and infections rates skyrocket throughout the country, but mostly in Red States. Is this a real Republican come-to-Jesus-moment? Do the Republicans know something we don't? Or are they finally coming to the realization that their political stance was actually killing their own constituents? But there's more. There's Kevin McCarthy's determination to de-legitimize the January 6 Commission, the indictment of Trump's friend and crony Tom Barrack, questions about the infrastructure deal President Biden needs and what happens if he doesn't get it and we're just getting started.The Republican Party's come-to-Jesus-moment, the January 6 Commission, Trump's dirty, rotten scoundrels, anti-Semitism, infrastructure, Covid-19, Cuba, and whatever happened to the Matt Gaetz July indictment?..and that's just the tip of the iceberg. We pack a lot into the hour.

Trump loves Hitler, wat? Trump is back and as they say with a vengeance. Did he ever go away? And that's just where we begin this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Show podcast, when joining me at my table for the full hour to discuss the latest revelation that Trump actually said “Hitler did a lot of good” and so much more is my partner in politics, former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper. According to excerpts of an upcoming book from Wall Street Journal reporter Michael Bender, then-President Donald Trump allegedly praised Adolf Hitler during a discussion with his White House chief of staff John Kelly in 2018 while on a trip to Paris to commemorate the armistice after World War I. "Well, Hitler did a lot of good things," Trump reportedly told Kelly, who was explaining to the 45th President who the allies and adversaries were in both World Wars, according to Bender. Bender also writes in the book that Trump was "undeterred" and persisted in his defense of the German dictator by claiming the country made economic gains under Hitler's leadership. You can't make this stuff up folks.But that's not all. Covid-19 infections are rising throughout the country. We look at the alarming increase in cases and wonder why so many aren't alarmed. Should vaccines be mandated to save us all? Joe Manchin remains on our radar as he continues to be in control of the American government. Should we be losing patience with President Joe Biden's failure to get inline with his party? According to a leaked video of Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX), obstruction is the playbook for Republicans. Is that why Roy or anyone was sent to Congress -- to obstruct?” Majorie Taylor Greene invokes the Holocaust again. Why hasn't she been expelled from Congress? And is Elvis Presley Jewish? Trump loves Hitler, wat? Ashlii Babbitt a matyr? This week in Tucker Carlson. Whatever happened to the Matt Gaetz indictment and we're just getting started.

It's a very Trumpy 4th of July and Trump is where we begin this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Show podcast, when joining me at my table for the full hour to discuss the Trump, Inc. indictment, the grumpy Supreme Court decisions, grr, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and so much more is my partner in politics, former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper. Trumpy is back in the news. Did he ever go away? The Trump Organization and Chief Financial Officer Allen Weisselberg pleaded not guilty Thursday to crimes related to what prosecutors called a “sweeping and audacious” scheme to avoid taxes on compensation for the CFO and other executives. The company is owned by former President Donald Trump, who was not charged. A 15-count indictment says the Trump Organization and Weisselberg devised a scheme to compensate Weisselberg and other company executives in an “off the books” manner, in which they “received substantial portions of their income through indirect and disguised means.” A prosecutor in court said that the “the former CEO” of the Trump Organization — ex-President Trump — “signed, himself, many of the illegal compensation checks” to executives. Then Trumpy's Supreme Court took another major stab at voter's rights and protected dark money's infiltration of our politics. Halli goes off on House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy. Matt catches us up and “This Week on Tucker Carlson” but that's just where we begin. Tune inIt's a very Trumpy 4th: Trump Inc. is indicted; Joe Manchin might have to rethink the filibuster; Pelosi taps Republican Rep. Liz Cheney for her committee investigating the Capitol riot; is Vice President Kamala Harris in trouble?

Rudy Giuliani - the hair dye made me do it - and now disgraced lawyer who had his law license suspended this week is where we begin on The Halli Casser-Jayne Show podcast when joining me at my table for the full hour to discuss what was truly an unusually interesting week in politics is my partner in politics, former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper. It's stunning! Once the beloved Mayor of New York City, known as America's Mayor, Rudy Giuliani served as United States Associate Attorney General and United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York. Then Giuliani hitched his wagon to former President Donald Trump, and as the eloquent Lincoln Project co-founder, Rick Wilson, once said: “Everything that Trump touches dies, hashtag #ETTD -- Giuliani's law license suspended by the New York Court citing “uncontroverted evidence that Giuliani communicated demonstrably false and misleading statements to courts, lawmakers and the public at large in his capacity as lawyer for former President Donald J. Trump and the Trump campaign.” But that's just where we begin. Speaker Nancy Pelosi finally announced that she is creating a commission to investigate what she said are “many questions” about the events leading up to the Jan. 6 insurrection at the Capitol and the federal response to that day. There's so much more. Did Joe Biden's loss to protect voting rights and shore up American democracy by the Republican's filibuster cement the outcome of the 2022 elections? Is Kamala Harris the new Democrat the media loves to hate? Has Governor Ron DeSantis turned Florida into Floridistan? We discuss the Catholic Church, General Millie's takedown of Rep. Matt Gaetz, Trump's bucking the court order to turn over his tax returns to Congress, and that's just where we begin.

The always polite and measured President gave us a rare glimpse of his Irish, deliberate? Matt and I discuss. There's more, this was a week of revelations into how far the former guy Trump was willing to go to retain power. But also revealed, how reticent the Democratic Party for all its protestations is willing to go to finish Trump. The frustration is not just mine. Washington Post columnist Greg Sargent and legal scholar, Laurence Tribe are among the many starting to voice their frustration at the do-nothing Democrats. There's a lot more on our weekly politics review. Tune in.In my second half-hour, I welcome back my go-to guy on all things Vladimir Putin, Franz Sedelmeyer. Once the best of friends, Putin and then President Boris Yeltsin expropriated Sedelmayer's Russian company at great financial cost to Sedelmayer who didn't take what happened lightly.

Ocean cruises, land shrimp, and politics? Yep! It's a smorgasbord of politics this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Show when joining Halli is her partner in politics, former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper as together they slice and dice all things politics, and some days, our lawmakers, too. Senator Joe Manchin, what's up with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis? the fate of Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, Kamala Harris -- ay caramba! How did you like the food in Guatemala, Vice President Harris? Is infrastructure dead? How about H.R.1? Maybe Joe Biden couldn't have asked for a better time to change the subject to the G7 summit and his soon to be meeting with Vladimir Putin, or maybe not. A group of House lawmakers is criticizing Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., for comparing the human rights records of the United States and Israel with Hamas and the Taliban — a rare public rebuke against a fellow Democrat. If she's not an anti-Semite, she's darn close. And under the heading of be careful what you wish for, Attorney General Merrick Garland is enraging Democrats with his fairness doctrine being applied to Donald Trump. There's more. Tune in, land shrimp is the main course. Don't know what land shrimp are? Scrumptious! Listen here >> https://bit.ly/3zhJbGQ

Trump, Bibi, Gaetz, the Revolutionary War and cicadas -- that's just where we begin this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Show when joining Halli is her partner in politics, former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper, and New York Times bestselling author Patrick K. O'Donnell whose new book THE INDESPENSIBLES is already on bestseller lists nationwide.Everything changes and everything remains the same, well maybe. Trump is back in the news (did he ever go away?), insisting he'll be reinstated as President by August. It appears that the longest serving Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu's 12-year run is coming to an end, but maybe not. Be careful when you count Bibi down and out. Rep. Matt Gaetz is possibly facing obstruction charges (will he ever be arrested?), Covid-19 is on the wane, jobs are coming back, and, oh, Halli has some advice on how to handle the Democrat's Joe Manchin problem. In our second half-hour, Halli talks with New York Times bestselling author, Patrick K. O'Donnell about his latest highly-touted book THE INDISPENSABLES. O'Donnell brings us a vivid account of an impressive Revolutionary War unit, a Massachusetts regimen, weaving a gripping narrative that captures the extraordinary story of fighting men of whom few Americans have ever heard but who nonetheless proved themselves “indispensable” to the cause of American liberty. And for the record, the similarities to the state of our burgeoning nation then, bear uncanny similarities to where we are today. Trump, Bibi, Gaetz, the Revolutionary War and cicadas, the January 6 Commission, anti-Semitism, Israel, Mike Flynn, infrastructure, bipartisanship, Joe Manchin, President Joe Biden…there's a lot to get to.

The Mideast Mess is where we start this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Show , but that's just where we begin when joining Halli is her partner in politics, former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper.Move over Rep. Liz Cheney, last week's Number One topic as the conflict between the Israelis and Palestinians takes center stage yet again. Seventy-six years later, one of the longest-running arguments in world history remains unsolved. Rockets blare, bombs fall, people die and the Mideast Mess just gets messier and messier. American domestic politics doesn't help as the Democratic Party appears to be less and less a friend to Israel and more and more in the camp with the named terrorist organization, Hamas. Some say the current flare-up of the hostilities between Hamas and Israel is about personal power, some blaming Israel's longest serving Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in his fight for his hold on power and Hamas, in a fight for its hold on Palestinian power over the Palestinian Authority. The issue is complex. Does anti-Semitism play a role? Could a Jewish state be formed today? There are a lot of questions about the Mideast Mess, Covid-19, the January 6 Commission, the Trump criminal prob, the state of the Republican Party… tune in. You might need a chocolate egg cream by the time Halli and Matt are done. Let's get started.The Mideast Mess, Covid-19, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Kevin McCarthy, the January 6 Commission, anti-Semitism, Israel, Hamas, Palestinian, AOC and the Squad, the cuckoo GOP, President Joe Biden, and what is Halli staying up all night to watch? There's a lot to get to. Tune in to The Halli Casser-Jayne Show with Matthew Cooper, the podcast available at Halli Casser-Jayne dot com, on all your favorite apps, and on your Alexa device, too.

Liz Cheney as an American heroine, the untold story of the daring resistance efforts of the heroic Jewish women in the Polish ghettos of the Nazi occupation -- women as heroines takes center stage on The Halli Casser-Jayne Show this week when joining Halli is her partner in politics, former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper, and author of the grippingly told, THE LIGHT OF DAYS, Judy Batalion.To no one's surprise Rep. Liz Cheney was ousted from her leadership position in the Republican Party in a 16 minute voice vote, Republican leadership lacking the courage to record individual votes, thus making Cheney the Opposition Leader to a party gone cuckoo for Trump. But that is only a part of this week's Republican crazy. After taking her freak show on the road with alleged pedophile Rep. Matt Gaetz, Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene confronted Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez outside the House chamber on Wednesday afternoon, began shouting at her, asking why Ocasio-Cortez supports Antifa, a far-left activist group, and Black Lives Matter, falsely labeling them "terrorist" groups. Who is going to rein in Taylor Greene? Not one of her fello cuckoos. But that's just where we begin. Oh, the drama! Things get a little heated on the subject of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict. Tune in. You might need a Compari and soda by the time Halli and Matt are done.We return to sanity in our second half-hour when Halli is joined by author Judy Batalion here to talk about her new book THE LIGHT OF DAYS: THE UNTOLD STORY OF WOMEN RESISTANCE FIGHTERS IN HITLER'S GHETTOS. Of the many stories out of World War II, one of the most extraordinary has remained hidden until now: the daring resistance efforts of Jewish women in the Polish ghettos of the Nazi occupation. Defiant, rebellious, this is the recounting of the unsung women who worked together, and risked their lives in their David-and-Goliath fight against the Nazi's. Grippingly told, THE LIGHT OF DAYS sheds light on the invaluable role these heroines played in fighting against and surviving Hitler's Final Solution. Liz Cheney heroine, the cuckoo GOP, what to do about out-of-control Marjoire Taylor Greene, what to do about he says he's a Democrat, Sen. Joe Manchin, Covid-19, the fragile economy, Joe Biden's Infrastructure plan, even J Lo and Ben Affleck make an appearance.There's a lot to get to.

What to do about Trump's GOP? A serious question as America watches the “Republican” insurrectionists hijack what was once the Grand Old Party under the guidance of the Former Guy, the unlikely arch-Conservative from the stalwart Republican dynasty, daughter of the Former Vice President Dick Cheney, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) willing to put her political career on the line to save the soul of her party and some say democracy. Welcome to The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast this week all about the threat to democracy the Democratic Party might not be taking seriously enough, if New York Times columnist Thomas Freidman is correct, a spirited conversation on the subject and more between Halli and her partner in politics, former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper.In a frank piece in the New York Times and in an eye-opening exchange with Anderson Cooper on his nightly cable show A360 this week, Friedman warned that President Biden's successful handling of the Covid-19 Pandemic and the passing of his Stimulus Package seems to have lulled many into thinking that Donald Trump and his Big Lie that the election was stolen, which led to the Capitol insurrection on Jan. 6, would all go away. It hasn't. In fact, Friedman says, the opposite is happening. “We are not OK,” Freidman insists. “America's democracy is in real danger. In fact, we are closer to a political civil war — more than at any other time in our modern history.” You don't want to miss Halli and Matt's discussion. Do they agree? Do you? Can Rep. Lynn Cheney stop the madness that has overtaken her Republican Party? Should she stay in and fight, or leave? There's more. Tune in. You might need a tranquilizer by the time Halli and Matt are done.What to do about Trump's GOP? The fate of Liz Cheney, Mitt Romney, the Republican Party. And what's in store for Rudy Giuliani? Is it true that ETTD, as Rick Wilson so famously said? Covid-19, Caitlyn Jenner, Bill and Melinda Gates, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis…there's a lot to get to.

President Joe Biden delivered his first address to a joint session of Congress on Wednesday night, but since this was his first address, it is not technically called a "State of the Union" speech. It is an "annual message." Did you know that?

And what a week it has been. Congressman Matt Gaetz and Gaetzgate are at the top of our list of subjects to discuss. The New York Times is reporting that Gaetz asked White House officials for blanket preemptive pardons for himself and other congressional allies of Trump. Is that what an innocent man does? Venerable news magazine 60 Minutes took on another Florida politico, Governor Ron DeSantis, accusing of him participating with Florida's top supermarket chain, Publix, in a pay for play scheme, giving the large donors to DeSantis's PAC the exclusive rights to distribute the Covid-19 vaccine. Was it a hit or a miss for 60 Minutes and/or Ron DeSantis? We discuss. And what of Covid-19? President Joe Biden has overseen a nearly flawless roll-out of the vaccine. Following his extraordinary legislative accomplishment with the passing of the stimulus package, Biden might be the least polarizing figure to sit in the most powerful position in Washington, and one of the most surprisingly successful. Can he repeat his success with his Infrastructure Bill?Those stories and the MLB and the moving of the All-Star Game out of Atlanta to Denver, Republican voter suppression efforts, former House Speaker John Boehner's scintillating new book, does Israel Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu pull together a coalition government?

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is accused of fudging the state's Covid-19 numbers, covering up as many as 14,000 deaths. Gaetz ran to Fox News' Tucker Carlson to defend himself and may have implicated the firebrand anchor his naughty-boy antics, and all three are dyed-in-the-wool Trump cultists, which makes you wonder what's the criteria for becoming a member of the Trump Cult?We answer that question and take a deep-dive into the cult of Trump in our second half-hour. Calling Republican lawmakers members of a cult has been a favorite moniker of the press, but is there such a thing as a Trump Cult? Steven Hassan, PH.D., a mental health professional who has been helping people leave destructive cults since 1976, after he was deprogrammed from Sun-Myung Moon's Unification Church, The Moonies, by his family.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), Q-Anon believer is not an outlier in the Republican Party. She is the Republican Party and all it stands for and that's where we begin this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast with Matthew Cooper. How did the Republican Party go from being the party of small government and the protector of individual freedom to the home of Fascism, MAGAs, White Supremacists and kooks? Part of the answer to that question can be found in the powerful story of World War II told by David King in his book THE TRIAL OF ADOLF HITLER: THE BEER HALL PUTSCH AND THE RISE OF NAZI GERMANY, Halli's conversation with Mr. King, the subject of our second half-hour. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, sadly, is no anomaly in the Republican Party, now the home of Christian Nationalists, conspiracy believers, White Supremacists, anti-Semitics, and liars. It's easy and fair to blame former President Donald Trump for the demise of the once Grand Old Party, but he merely took advantage of the what has long been brewing in the party. While characters like Taylor Greene were once the few, they are now the many. How did this happen? Is the press doing a good job on reporting the reality? The U.S.A. is on dangerous footing when storming the Capitol, likened to Hitler's Beer Hall Putsch, an attempted coup by GOP believers, ginned up by then sitting President Donald Trump and the likes of Taylor Greene, Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz is acceptable by half of the members of Congress. Answers lie in New York Times bestselling author David King's historical account, THE TRIAL OF ADOLF HITLER, THE BEER HALL PUTSCH AND THE RISE OF NAZI GERMANY. The story begins February 26, 1924 when ten defendants are gathered in a packed Munich courtroom to begin their trial for high treason. All ten were members or allies of the Nazi Party. Four months prior, they had attempted a coup at a rowdy meeting in a local beer hall, an event quickly dubbed “the Beer Hall Putsch” by the press. The coup failed, ending in a massacre of Nazis at the hands of the state police. The trial was widely expected to sound the death knell for the Nazi Party. Instead Hitler and the party emerged more driven, popular, and powerful than before, launching the Nazi Party on its way to national and international importance, solidifying the power and popularity of the trial's unlikely star defendant: the ‘everyman' hero, Adolf Hitler. Does January 6, 2021 come to mind? Sound familiar?Marjorie Taylor Greene, the GOP, Fascism, Q-Anon, Donald Trump, Adolf Hitler, The Beer Hall Putsch, history, Nazi Germany, Washington D.C., coups…is history repeating itself?

Citizen's United We Stand, Divided We Fail. On this week's episode of The Halli Casser-Jayne Show it's a beautiful day in Joe Biden's neighborhood, the United States now officially under new management, gone is ‘you know who,' and we begin our four year stroll alongside President Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. and Vice-President Kamala Harris. Welcome to The Halli Casser-Jayne Show Podcast, it's nice to have you here. As we do every week, newsman Matthew Cooper joins Halli for their weekly political review in which Matt and Halli slice and dice all things politics. And what a week it has been. Despite the scourge of the Covid19 pandemic, Washington, D.C. in shock after Trump's followers, at his incitement, stormed the Capitol, a city under military might, former Vice-President Joe Biden was sworn in as the 46th President of the United States. And we have a new Vice-President, too, her name, Kamala Harris. The future for America is promising, right? Well, maybe not. After the other scourge that was the presidency of Donald Trump was officially brought to a close, the Republicans appear none the less chastened. Candidate Biden promised to unite the country, Republicans, despite the fact that their leader was impeached a second time for his role in the assault on the American Capitol and run out of town in shame, appear to want to continue to sow division, seemingly willing to do anything to stop President Biden's efforts at unification, enacting his agenda, taking control of the Covid19 Pandemic, bringing the country back to fiscal order. And what of the second trial of the former president? There's a lot to dissect. Here we go. Covid19, impeachment, President Biden, Vice-President Harris, what will be the fate of seditionists Senator Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz, Trump's militia storming the Capitol, the future of the filibuster, which Republican will be the first to put country before party -- all on The Halli Casser-Jayne Show Podcast always available at Halli Casser-Jayne dot com, on all your favorite apps, and on your Alexa device, too.

Welcome to The Halli Casser-Jayne Show Podcast and the Banana Republicans of America. On this week's episode Halli and her partner in politics, veteran White House correspondent Matthew Cooper ponder Donald Trump's refusal to concede his defeat by President-elect Joe Biden, and all his little Republican lemmings, too. But there's more.On November 3, 2020, America spoke and spoke loudly and clearly, much to Donald Trump's dismay and denial. Former Vice-President Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. won the American presidency with over fifty percent of the vote, beating out the incumbent president, a rare event in American history. But Donald Trump is refusing to acknowledge his defeat, acting more like Gone With the Wind's Aunt Pittypat, hysterical, hold up in the White House like a 19th century woman having the vapors, refusing a peaceful transition of power, a first in American history. Has the United States of America officially become a Banana Republic? And then there is the Covid-19 Pandemic that is ravaging the U.S.. It seems unfathomable that over 250,000 Americans are dead, and not a word from President Donald ‘Aunt Pittypat' Trump, indulging in his own personal pity party. The Banana Republicans of America, the Covid19 Pandemic, was Senator Lindsey Graham trying to fix the election for Trump? The fate of the U.S. Senate remains up in the air. Will the Republican Party come to their senses? Will Trump?

Welcome to The Halli Casser-Jayne Show Podcast. On this week's episode Halli and her partner in politics, veteran White House correspondent Matthew Cooper discuss Joe Biden's victory over one-term President Donald Trump, ponder the lessons learned, and look through their looking glasses to discern what comes next in the fight for democracy. On November 3, 2020, America spoke and spoke loudly and clearly, much to Donald Trump's dismay and denial. Trump's character was on the ballot and America', too. It was not a close decision. Former Vice-President Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. won with over fifty percent of the vote, beating out the incumbent president, a rare thing in American history. More history was made when Senator Kamala Harris became America's first bi-racial, female vice-president. And that's just where we begin. So many questions. So little time. Will Nancy Pelosi remain Madame Speaker after the Democrats lost so many House seats? Will AOC and the Squad make life difficult for President Biden, pushing for their left-wing agenda? The Senate is still up for grabs. We talk about the two Georgia Senate races that could make or break Biden's presidency before it even gets started. And then there is the Covid-19 Pandemic that is ravaging the U.S. as we speak. A recap of Election2020, the fate of the U.S. Senate, the end of Donald J. Trump's hold on America? Who from the Republican Party takes control. Florida, Covid-19, those pesky things called polls. Susan Collins the most powerful Republican?

Fred Rogers, with apologies, it was a beautiful night in the neighborhood for Joe Biden, according to critics who compared the Democratic presidential candidate's town hall on ABC News to a Mister Rogers episode.

Following the ABC-NBC dueling debates, radical right-wing operative, Trump adviser Mercedes Schlapp, who thought she was insulting Biden when she tweeted “ABC Politics townhall feels like I am watching an episode of Mister Rodgers Neighborhood,” was herself schlapped down for thinking it was an insult to compare Biden to Fred Rogers the late children's TV host revered as a patient, inclusive and kind person. Is that what Trump has wrought? Mr. Rogers is now the bad guy? From there we tackle the hearings for SCOTUS nominee, Amy Comey Barrett, the nationwide rise in Covid-19 cases, the Senate races and the big Democratic money hauls, Rudy Giuliani, Russia, Chris Christie's mea culpa, Floriduh, Floriduh, Floriduh and that's just where we begin this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Show with Matthew Cooper.

Donald Trump tested positive for Covid-19, was dramatically medevacked to Walter Reed Medical Center, took us all on a wild ride through the streets of D.C., waving his hand as if he was the Queen of England. But hey, Trump was just beginning. After returning to the White House Trump gave us more drama when he played the part of Argentine dictator Juan Peron on the White House balcony “don't cry for me tra la la.” Finally, there was the Vice-Presidential debate and just when you thought it couldn't get any crazier, a fly landed on the tarmac that is Mike Pence's thick patch of white hair, and they say Gd works in mysterious ways. There's more, tune in. You don't want to miss Halli's brilliant prediction, too!

“Will you shut up, man?” The words flew out of the mouth of septuagenarian Joe Biden in the first debate between the presidential hopeful, former Vice President Joe Biden, aimed at the no, he wouldn't shut up rage-filled current occupant of the White House, Donald Trump, when Fox News anchor Chris Wallace the debate moderator couldn't contain the out of control POTUS. That's where we begin on this recap of the first debate of Election 2020. And we tackle a whole lot more, too, this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Show with Matthew Cooper.

And what a week it has been. Imagine a former Vice-President of the United States forced to ask the current President of the United States to “shut-up, man.” It went downhill from there, hitting a new low even for Donald Trump, when he refused to denounce white supremacy and instead told the Proud Boys to “stand back and stand by.” But that's just where we begin. Is Amy Coney Barrett a member of a religious cult? What was Governor Ron DeSantis thinking when he re-opened the state of Florida on the day when Florida had the highest number of Covid-19 deaths in the country? And what of former Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale's arrest and hospitalization after a suicide threat? Show me the money comes to mind.

Welcome to The Halli Casser-Jayne Show. I am Halli Casser-Jayne. Covid-19, Federal troops in American cities some are calling Trump's Militia, Joe Biden ahead by 6 in Florida, and that's just the half of it. Because besides our weekly take on all things politics, in our second half-hour we're taking a trip to Alaska with the fun, spunky, astute author of OF BEARS AND BALLOTS: AN ALASKAN ADVENTURE IN SMALL-TOWN POLITICS, Heather Lende.

And what a week it has been. Covid-19 is ravaging the United States and Donald Trump is back on the tube with his daily campaign events disguised as Covid-19 updates -- not much information there. Florida has become the epicenter of the pandemic, 120 plus people dying everyday while Governor DeSantis tells everyone how wonderful things are. Federal troops are being deployed to American cities against the wishes of those states leaders, and Democrats are “looking into it” and that's just where they begin.

Smart, funny, and a force to be reckoned with the girl from New York who moved to Alaska in her early twenties, and took the state by storm is back with a new book OF BEARS AND BALLOTS: AN ALASKAN ADVENTURE IN SMALL-TOWN POLITICS that tells the story of her mis-adventure into local politics. There are some lessons for us all in this story. Sarah Palin and Senator Lisa Murkowski each make an appearance. Tune in.
