SEASON 2 EPISODE 28: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:43) SPECIAL COMMENT: I call for the immediate arrest of Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, representative of the 14th district of Georgia, for violating 18 US code 871 – “Threats against the President and Successors to the Presidency.” Greene has posted to social media video of a direct threat to harm or kill Joe Biden, made by a man who when asked about that threat of personal violence replied “I don't regret nothing I said. I (effing) mean it, bro." Greene's own ignorance of the federal code dealing with threats against the President is no defense. 18 U-S code 871 quite clearly states that the threat does NOT have to be first-hand. Greene does not have to have said it, she merely has to have distributed the threat. Though she helpfully began her distribution and promulgation of the threat against Biden's life with her own statement: “I agree with this man.” At some point we have to break Greene - and the fascist right's - dance along the cliff-edge of political violence. Just two weeks ago she rightly complained that violent threats against her had gotten a weak three-month sentence. Now, the threat she distributed should be met by her being charged, arrested, convicted, and sentenced to the maximum of five years. Because occasionally the Justice System works. "Enrique" Tarrio broke the January 6 record with a 22-year sentence (though take the odds and bet on Trump getting more). And let's hear it for my new hero, Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro, who was born in Cuba and who accused political ignoramus and stunter Tommy Tuberville of more than even endangering national security by holding up military promotions. “For someone who was born in a communist country," said Secretary Del Toro, "I would never have imagined that actually one of our own senators would actually be aiding and abetting communists and other autocratic regimes around the world.” And there is more on the 14th Amendment, now the flavor of the month in the media. Michigan's Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson makes an interesting revelation: “Secretaries of states of multiple states are having conversations. I'm talking with folks in Pennsylvania, with the secretary of state in Nevada and even in Maine; people in Georgia of course – my colleague Brad Raffensberger – just to get a sense of what the facts are” and she added that a group of states quote “likely need to act in concert, if we act at all.” B-Block (21:10) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: I'm somewhat limited by a throat infection, but here are Anthony Rendon of baseball's Angels who can't play due to a string of injuries (it happens) but refuses to talk about it (it's inexcusable), Washington Post "Fact Checker" Glenn Kessler, and the Saudi Prince who's trying to choose our president for us and whose exports to this country we should cut off and whose assets here we should seize. C-Block (29:12) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Yesterday was the 15th anniversary of the night the Republican Party and Tom Brokaw got me fired as the co-anchor of MSNBC's 2008 Presidential Debate coverage because the Republicans told Brokaw do this or McCain won't show up for the debate you inherited when Tim Russert died and Brokaw really wanted a second career after Brian Williams had buried his first career alive and threw me under the bus even though I had welcomed him to our MSNBC campaign coverage when NBC had literally benched him for the '08 campaign.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
I'm going to see Melissa Etheridge in concert tonight, so will not have a live show today. So I thought you should enjoy Melissa today too. So it's a Flashback Friday. I'll share three of the many interviews I've done with Melissa in the 35 (gasp) years since her first album was released in 1988.We start with an interview from October of 2008. It was three weeks before the Nov 4 2008 election that gave us President Obama!The second interview I'm sharing is from five years earlier. It was Christmastime 2003, and Melissa joined me on the air at WXRV/Boston 92.5 The River for an interview and performance.And we wrap it up with an appearance on my show from 2014...Enjoy! And I'll see you Monday.
Right now, there are only 2 people on the GOP playing field for 2024. Former president Donald Trump and former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley. How can Nikki Haley find her place in what is shaping up to be a crowded field? Sarah Isgur from The Dispatch shares insights from her time working on Carly Fiorina's campaign in 2016 about how Haley can differentiate herself and be part of the conversation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Of the three presidential elections that happened in the Y2K decade, 2008 was, without a doubt, the most entertaining. It features a fascinating cast of characters: alien body-snatcher Hillary Clinton, sex rascal Bill Clinton, legend-icon-moment Barack Obama, foreign policy war psycho John McCain, and the ineffable Sarah Palin. She's ineffable in that she can't talk right. Put all these people on the national stage, and you're guaranteed a spectacle only rivaled by 2016. We walk through the marathon democratic primary between Hillary and Barack Obama, move on to the general election between Obama and McCain, and wrap up with the collapse of the economy in the Fall of 2008 and the ongoing aftermath of the election. En route, we discuss Hillary Clinton's myriad weaknesses, Bill Clinton's sex crimes, the media's shameless support of Obama, John McCain's total self-immolation of his reputation, Joe Biden's failing upwards, and Sarah Palin's inability to produce a thought or recall memories.
Do yourself a favor: avoid political talk while you're celebrating Thanksgiving with loved ones on Thursday. You don't want what happened to me on the Thanksgiving after the 2008 presidential election to happen to you after this year's midterm elections. To help you with this, in this episode, I share one jarring word to use if things go in a negative direction. Hear my 2008 story and learn what that word is by listening here or on YouTube at https://youtu.be/zcUpPcJDQds

Ghislaine Maxwell is guilty, that's a good thing, but why are the Epstein files still sealed and why didn't she cut a deal to name names? Disturbing, and it means a lot of bad people will get away with abusing children. Sadly, this is a pattern. Omicron is here, and more Americans have COVID than ever, yet the U.S. coronavirus death rate is actually dropping. This is a remarkable piece of data that is being ignored by our case-obsessed media. Meanwhile, The Scientist in Chief Joey Biden got walked by his dog on a beach... alone... while he wore a mask. Our trade deficit has ballooned to a record level. Is this a win for the nationalists because we "told you so," or a win for the globalists who prefer a weaker America? And, a Republican Pennsylvania gubernatorial candidate smears a Breitbart reporter with an unhinged rant. Two epic guests today: first, Gov. Sarah Palin on dill baby drilling, beating Joe Biden in the 2008 Veep debate, and what you all can be do right now to fight back against the left. Then, Jimmy John Liautaud, the billionaire who conquered the sandwich game with incredible hard-work, infectious energy, and a love of country. He talks to us about how he did it -- but most importantly, we Christen a new sandwich on the Jimmy John's secret menu: The MARLOW!
We're at the Center for Asian American Media (CAAM) Festival with part 2 of our coverage on the documentary Ricochet (if you haven't already, check out part 1 with director Chihiro Wimbush!). Matt Gonzalez is someone whose work we have followed (both as a trial lawyer and as a politician) in San Francisco for almost 20 years, and we were so excited to have him on the show to speak about his pivotal role in Ricochet. We get into the need for reform in immigration law, how the term sanctuary city has often been misunderstood, and why working on this case was so important for him. He also shares some insight into his 2003 run for SF Mayor against Gavin Newsom, his run for Vice President alongside Ralph Nader in 2008, and how art gives him balance.

During the 2004 Democratic National Convention, a first-term senator named Barack Obama from Illinois delivered a speech that exuded excitement, charisma and spark. Four years later, he found himself on that same platform as he launched his campaign to become the president of the United States.
Michael Froman has had an extraordinary career. After serving in the Department of the Treasury under President Clinton, he became the head of personnel for the 2008 Obama-Biden transition team and later served as a White House deputy national security advisor and as the U.S. Trade Representative. In this episode of Transition Lab, host David Marchick asks Froman for an inside look at the world of vetting, selecting and appointing key presidential personnel. They discuss how Froman got involved in transition planning, the lessons his experience holds for future administrations and President Obama’s personnel strategy.
Joe Biden taps Kamala Harris as his Vice Presidential pick and the attacks on her, and her record, begin. The President suffered a personal loss over the weekend and the COVID-19 crisis continues to rage out of control. What do Milli Vanilli have to do with Donald Trump? What do The Golden Girls have to do with The Census? Why is Kanye West running for President now? The episode ends with a list of reasons why the Biden/Harris ticket should receive your vote. A Real Housewives of Atlanta quote ends the episode on a light note.
Grace and Charlotte talk through their viewing experience of Hillary the HULU doc series. The documentary covers Hillary Rodham Clinton's early life and her carrer.
