SEASON 3 EPISODE 119: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: Senator Lisa Murkowski may be the most important person in the country right now. Her public confession that she too is afraid of the Trump nightmare and her HINTS at talking to Senate colleagues ABOUT her fear – could provide just enough Republican rebellion to rein Trump in. It feels as if she just got it, as if she just understood that yes Trump is Nazi-esque and yes Trump often emulates the Soviets but the closest parallel to him is O'Brien and "The Party" in Orwell's "1984" and the simple terrifying conviction that "the object of power is power." That's why I think when Kristi Garden Noem and Secretary of Defense (and Vodka) Hegseth (if he's still on the job after ANOTHER Signal chat came to light) file their report on the border to Trump this week and tell him no, they don't need to invoke The Insurrection Act, he may do it anyway because... the object of power is power. Murkowski and thirteen other Republican Senators and at most four Republican Representatives can stop this. They can save the country. They can impeach Trump or if they still can’t get over the hump, the 18 of you can use the THREAT to impeach him, to virtually fetter him, to at least control the width and breadth of his damage, to make him know the Senate WILL vote against him. She can also talk to anybody on the Supreme Court except Alito or Thomas. The other seven, in the middle of the damn night - at 1 AM Saturday - stepped in to freeze any further disappearing Americans under the phony premise of The Alien Enemies Act. And there is reason to hope that these Murkowski-led conversations might happen before the iron curtain of dictatorship descends: Later in her confession of fear, she hinted at doing exactly what I just suggested. Meanwhile, how many times can you self-destruct on this? Gavin Newsom dismisses the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case as a "distraction" and calls Democrats sheep for defending the constitution. On the other hand, Senator Ed Markey is crafting a sense of the senate resolution stating Trump cannot again be elected, and cannot again serve, as president or vice president. Damn Straight. B-Block (40:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: The Musk Crappertruck Owner who claims to also be a "girl dad"; Pennsylvania congressman Dan Meuser kinda blames Governor Josh Shapiro's criticizing Trump for provoking the attempt to incinerate him and his family in the governor's mansion on Passover. And Trump DEI hire Pam Bondi lies that compulsive martyr and 85th Place Olympic Trials finisher Riley Gaines "went to the Olympics." Not unless she bought a ticket, Pam Blondie. C-Block (55:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: The renewed Trump bid to ban the Associated Press got me talking to a friend: How MANY times have I been banned, as a reporter? Do you mean this century, or in total? It's... a lot. From the LA Clippers to the ESPN Campus, I've been banned... a lot. And je ne regret rien!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Trump White House re-launched the govenrment's official COVID-19 website on Friday. The revamped site blames the origins of the coronavirus on a lab leak in China while criticizing former President Joe Biden, former top U.S. health official Anthony Fauci and the World Health Organization. The website is also critical of steps like social distancing, mask mandates and lockdowns. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how not even this level of government sanctioned critique of the nation's COVID policy will be sufficient to shake some hopeless deadenders in the media and comedy community who refuse to engage in even the most cursory reexamination of their mistaken views over the pandemic. Plus segments on British political commentator Douglas Murray's savage takedown of… British political commentator Douglas Murray, Trump's all-out assault on academic freedom and Chinese commentators' better understanding of the United States than Americans'. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

The Trump White House—led, no doubt, by Trump's chief immigration henchman, Stephen Miller—has taunted the Supreme Court, the Fourth Circuit, and all Americans with a sophomoric yet chilling new social media post from the official White House account. The post declares that they will not comply with the Supreme Court's commands regarding due process and the rule of law, effectively declaring war on our Constitutional Republic. Michael Popok sees this as a perverse “call and response” to Federalist icon Judge Wilkinson's request in his order yesterday that the “good brethren” in the Executive Branch perceive the “rule of law as vital” and “summon the best that is within us.” Judge Wilkinson, you have your response.

We woke to the death of Pope Francis today so we reached out to priest whom Pope Francis defrocked in 2015 over his outspokenness on being pro life. Frank Pavone is the national director of Priests for Life and the National Co-Chair of Pro Life Voters for Trump and as always he pulls no punches in his reaction to the death of Francis. We also get reaction from Father Dennis Gill from the Philadelphia Archdiocese. Also, what in the world is SCOTUS up to halting President Trump's efforts to deport more illegal alien gang members over the weekend? Democrats are disgustingly desperate to make this analogous to the Easter holiday. Reaction and analysis from Mark Weaver, former DOJ spokesman and Constitutional scholar.

Trump's Approval Ratings Dip - But Democrats Gain Nothing – New polling shows Trump's support falling to 41% approval, driven by concerns over the economy and tariffs. Still, Democrats haven't gained ground, and Trump remains strong on immigration, where most Americans support mass deportation. Supreme Court Temporarily Blocks Deportations Under Alien Enemies Act – In a rare 1 a.m. decision, justices halt deportation of Venezuelan migrants as legal challenges unfold. The ruling is part of a larger legal war over Trump's deportation agenda across four categories of migrants. Medicare Abuse by Migrants Targeted – The administration is using health data to find illegal immigrants fraudulently collecting benefits. Self-deportation through hardship remains a central strategy. Economic Outlook: Gloomy but with Bright Spots – While tariffs spark fears of stagflation and job loss, data shows prices remain stable, and U.S. steel, aluminum, and construction firms are adding jobs. Ten mining projects are fast-tracked as America fights rare earth dependence on China. Global Updates: Ukraine Peace Talks Stalling, Iran Playing Nuclear Games – Trump's patience wears thin with Ukraine peace efforts. Iran limits inspections and removes nuclear surveillance, leaving Israel considering a unilateral strike. Gaza and Lebanon: Hamas Goes Broke, Lebanese Army Arrests Militants – Israel is squeezing Hamas financially, and Lebanon's new president is cracking down on Hezbollah and Palestinian radicals. U.S. Troops Coming Home from Syria – The drawdown begins as Trump fulfills his promise to wind down America's anti-ISIS mission. Health Tip of the Day: The 10-Second Balance Test – UK researchers say if you can't balance on one foot for 10 seconds, you may face higher health risks.

Disability Series. Episode #2 of 4. In 1973, Richard Nixon signed the Rehabilitation Act, a bill intended to increasing hiring, extend rehabilitation services and increase assistance programs for Americans with disabilities. In the wake of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965, politicians and activists discussed the bill in explicitly civil rights terms, arguing that as the federal government had protected the civil rights of Black Americans and women, it must also protect the rights of disabled people. While there had been other bills focused on rehabilitation and services before, the Rehabilitation Act stood out to disabled Americans for one reason: one sentence in Section 504 of the bill. While other bills had appropriated money for services or called for programs, they didn't include a provision for enforcement – but Section 504 did exactly that. Disabled people saw an opportunity: Section 504 could radically change life for disabled people in the United States. And when the federal government failed to fully enforce Section 504 in the years after its passage, disabled people took matters into their own hands.

Why is America so over-medicated? According to Harvard Medical School professor Jerry Avorn, author of Rethinking Medications, everything begins and ends with the unaccountable power of Big Pharma. While acknowledging the tremendous benefits of modern medications, Avorn critiques the American healthcare system's pricing structures, pharmaceutical patent abuse, and profit incentives that drives the over-prescription of medicine. Avorn advocates for more thoughtful, evidence-based approaches to medication use, encouraging us to have meaningful conversations with our doctors about prescribed drugs. FIVE TAKEAWAYS* Modern medications provide tremendous benefits, but Americans pay approximately twice as much for prescription drugs as citizens of other wealthy countries due to limited price controls and lobbying influence.* The pharmaceutical industry uses "patent thickets" to extend monopolies beyond reasonable timeframes, preventing price competition that would make medications more affordable.* Patients should engage in conversations with their doctors about medications, asking questions about purpose, alternatives, and affordability rather than blindly accepting or rejecting prescriptions.* Progress in mental health medications has been limited compared to other fields like cancer treatment, partly due to the complexity of the brain and partly due to an over reliance on medical solutions for social problems.* Recent government funding cuts to university research could significantly impact life-saving medical innovations, as most drug discoveries begin with federally-funded academic research.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

"Ships and shipping are vital to American economic security and the free flow of commerce," U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer wrote in a statement, adding, "The Trump administration's actions will begin to reverse Chinese dominance, address threats to the U.S. supply chain, and send a demand signal for U.S.-built ships." The Federal Register notice titled "Notice of Action and Proposed Action in Section 301 Investigation of China's Targeting the Maritime, Logistics, and Shipbuilding Sectors for Dominance, Request for Comments," published Thursday by the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR), states that new fees will be imposed on all Chinese-built and Chinese-owned ships docking at ports across America. These fees will be based on net tonnage or the volume of goods carried per voyage and will only be charged once per voyage and not per port arrival. "The fee will be set at $0 for the first 180 days, will then be set at $50/NT, and will increase incrementally over the next three years," the USTR notice read. Service Fee on Chinese Vessel Operators and Vessel Owners of China (courtesy of CNBC): Effective as of April 17, 2025, a fee in the amount of $0 per net ton for the arriving vessel. Effective as of October 14, 2025, a fee in the amount of $50 per net ton for the arriving vessel. Effective as of April 17, 2026, a fee in the amount of $80 per net ton for the arriving vessel. Effective as of April 17, 2027, a fee in the amount of $110 per net ton for the arriving vessel. Effective as of April 17, 2028, a fee in the amount of $140 per net ton for the arriving vessel. The USTR notice explained that "any such fee would be charged per rotation or string of U.S. port calls, and no more than five times a year on an individual vessel." Service fees for vessel operators of Chinese-built vessels are lower. Effective as of April 17, 2025, a fee in the amount of $0 for each container discharged. Effective as of October 14, 2025, a fee in the amount of $18 per net ton ($120 per container) Effective as of April 17, 2026, a fee in the amount of $23 per net ton ($153 per container) Effective as of April 17, 2027, a fee in the amount of $28 per net ton ($195 per container)

In 2020, Black Americans continued a centuries-long pursuit of racial equality and justice in the streets and at the polls. Arguing that this year was not a deviation from the historic Civil Rights Movement, the contributors to this collection examine the important work of Black men and women during the previous decades to shape, expand, and preserve a multiracial American democracy. The authors of these chapters show that Black Americans have long pushed local and national leaders to ensure that all citizens reap the full benefits of the Constitution. They discuss Black women's roles in advancing national voting rights; how Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) developed "race leaders"; discriminatory news coverage and actions against it; antipoverty efforts; and the racial and gender dynamics of activist organizations. These studies show how Black activism from the mid-twentieth century to the present has led to positive changes for all Americans, holding the nation to its democratic ideals and promises. Black Citizens and American Democracy (UP of Florida, 2025) compels recognition of many unsung people who have risked their lives and livelihoods for the good of the country.

Cenk Uygur, founder of "The Young Turks," joins James Poulos to discuss populism, media bias, the deep state, and the future of American politics. As someone who was critical of both Joe Biden and Donald Trump, Cenk argues the real war is against the establishment leading to a collapse of credibility from both the Republican and Democrat Parties. Corporate money, political corruption, and foreign lobbying are threatening free speech, and Americans are finally pushing back against the establishment. They discuss the current populist movement and the illusion that mainstream media is trying to push. The 2024 election proved that the political bubble is bursting and common sense is returning — something Trump has shown by appointing people like RFK Jr. and Elon Musk. Whether on the Right or Left, most Americans can agree on moderate issues like paid family leave, anti-war foreign policy, drug price reform, and breaking up corporate influence.

They discuss Black women's roles in advancing national voting rights; how Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) developed "race leaders"; discriminatory news coverage and actions against it; antipoverty efforts; and the racial and gender dynamics of activist organizations. These studies show how Black activism from the mid-twentieth century to the present has led to positive changes for all Americans, holding the nation to its democratic ideals and promises. Black Citizens and American Democracy (UP of Florida, 2025) compels recognition of many unsung people who have risked their lives and livelihoods for the good of the country.

Americans love their pizza. We eat around 3 billion pizzas a year—that’s about 350 slices per second. And we wash down a good portion of it with wine: the U.S. is the world’s largest wine-consuming country, drinking nearly 1 billion gallons annually. Put that all together and you’ve got a complete meal. Pizza, of course, is ubiquitous in Lafayette. And it’s not hard to find a decent glass of wine. But it’s fair to say we’re not known for those delicacies. We’re more of a boudin and light beer crowd. And that’s why it might be hard to find a sommelier — a certified wine expert like Nick Dooley. Nick is a Level 2 Sommelier and founder of Nick Dooley Sommelier, a boutique wine education and tasting business based in Lafayette. Nick got his start in hospitality bussing tables at Ruffino’s, discovered a passion for wine, and steadily climbed the ranks of sommelier certification. After an impromptu Facebook gig turned into a hit, Nick launched his own business in 2024. Now, he organizes in-home wine events, curates pairings, and teaches clients how to savor the subtleties of the grape. He's also the wine manager at My Somm Wine Merchant in River Ranch. Red and whites aren’t just varietals, they’re sauces. And you can find both varieties on the pies at Jim Deggy’s Brick Oven Pizza. Paisley Turrubiartez is the co-owner and area manager of the Jim Deggy’s location in Downtown Lafayette. She started as a staffer on the original Jim Deggy's food truck in Pineville, where the concept originated, and worked her way up over seven years. When the company expanded to Lafayette, she became part-owner and took the reins of the new location. Jim Deggy’s serves craft beer and wood-fired pizzas with a dough that cold ferments for 96 hours and finishes in a 700-degree French oven. Their menu is built on traditional flavors with a local twist—and their brewery uses a water-saving Smart Brew system to make it all work. Out to Lunch Acadiana was recorded live over lunch at Tsunami Sushi in downtown Lafayette.

During the early 1970s, a simple show about the merger of two half-families spawned characters that have lived on for generations. The host looks back at several ways a lovely lady, three very lovely girls and four men, living all together, have touched the lives of millions of Americans. And then he'll shake his head in disbelief at the musical variety show that first reunited them, and is remembered fondly by almost no one. Listen here! 

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Poe - Episode 362 - Poetry and DreamsI was looking through articles about Poe to find information for a future article regarding why do so many people read Edgar Allan Poe. And I found some great stuff and certainly will be writing an episode or two about that subject. But I found an article that said that more Americans - almost 3/4 - are familiar with Edgar Poe - more than any other poet.  Shakespeare is second.Now  this was the episode where I wanted to start some episodes on Bram Stoker - but it turns out there is a poetry workshop that is rather time sensitive, so I better get this out now.You see, on Thursday, April 24 there will be a free workshop from the Academy of American Poets online at YouTube - no charge at all, tho I doubt they would turn down donations.  All you need to do is register, and again, it is free. I have the URL on my Buzzsprout transcript and show notes - but in case you can't  remember URLS - I can't - it is https//poets.org/gala/2025 - - again, it is free - all you need to do is register in advance.  The readers include people such as Christine Baranski, Stephen King, Tony Kusher, Fran Lebowitz, and Lawrence O'Donnell - among others.Just wanted to be sure that you got the info about what is called Poetry and the Creative Mind - again, to be held on Thursday, April 24.By the way, Meryl Streep is extremely active in Poetry and the Creative Mind, and has read works by Elizabeth Bishop, Sylvia Plath, and Walt Whitman in programs across multiple years.By the way, poets.org.gala.2025 will take you to the registration page as well.For the rest of this episode, I would like to delve into several of Edgar Poe's poems that deal with dreams.  The three poems are Dreams, A Dream, and A Dream Within a Dream, and Dreamland - and boy, are they easy to mix up.  So take them in order considering the number of words in the title - I know it sounds simplistic but stay with me because it makes things soooo much easier.  And I am not going to include the poem Dreamland until the end of this podcast  - It is (in my opinion, a poem that is in a class by yourself.)Think 1, 2, and 5 - words that is -The title of Dreams is just one word, the title of A Dream is two words, and the title of the shortest and most mature work - A Dream Within a Dream is 5 words. Dreams and A Dream were both published in 1827 and A Dream Within a Dream was published in 1849 - the year of Edgar Poe's earthly demise.Let me say that again - The title of Dreams is just one word, the title of A Dream is two words, and the title of the most mature work - A Dream Within a Dream is 5 words. Dreams and A Dream were both published in 1827 and A Dream Within a Dream was published in 1849.Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Poe.

Host Marcia Franklin talks with Strobe Talbott, a former journalist and diplomat who was the president of the Brookings Institution from 2002 to 2017. Talbott, who wrote for Time magazine for more than 20 years, has also penned a dozen books. Franklin and Talbott talk about his passion for the subject of global warming, and whether the issue is still on the political radar for politicians and the public. His book, Fast Forward: Ethics and Politics in the Age of Global Warming, suggests political and societal solutions for reversing climate change. The two also discuss his views on global governance, about which he writes in The Great Experiment: The Story of Ancient Empires, Modern States, and the Quest for a Global Nation. Talbott also sits on North American Executive Committee of the Trilateral Commission. The two discuss some Americans' fears of a "One World government." Talbott, who was Deputy Secretary of State under President Bill Clinton, specialized in working with the new independent states of the Soviet Union. He talks with Franklin about a scandal in which Russian spies were found to have been living in the United States for many years. The two also discuss Brookings Mountain West, an offshoot of the Brookings Institution in Las Vegas, which examines public policy issues pertaining to the Intermountain West.

Since 1995, the conference has been bringing together some of the world's most well-known and illuminating authors to discuss literature and life.

Did you know Donald Trump plans to eliminate  Head Start the preschool program? Did you know he gutted Americorps? Have you heard what he did to the National Weather Service? Rachel Maddow rounds up stories that would be huge news in normal times but may have slipped by unnoticed by many Americans in the shadow of Trump's daily wrecking ball spectacle. 

Tonight, Dr. Phil explores how reverse discrimination and DEI initiatives have affected some Americans. Brooks Warden is a plaintiff in a lawsuit alleging students and school administrators in the Austin Independent School District in Texas violated his civil rights. He claims he suffered repeated racial harassment since age 12 when he put on a MAGA hat in a predominantly Hispanic and liberal middle school. Brooks is joined by his father, Monte Warden and their attorney, Mark Trammell, who discuss why they're appealing their case to the Supreme Court. Lois Herrera, an accomplished former executive at the Department of Education in NYC, was at the center of a discrimination lawsuit against the agency. Herrara, who had had a master's degree from Harvard, was abruptly demoted and replaced by person of color with a GED. She later settled with courts for $700,000. Attorney Seth Berenzweig offers advice to those who have suffered backlash from DEI policies.

Despite media panic and elite pushback, these policies are leveling the playing field and sparking a major wealth shift toward everyday Americans.

Young people have rejected the "trust the science" mentality of older generations, paving the way for acceptance of the concept of "Make America Healthy Again," according to a holistic doctor in Grand Rapids, Michigan. "I grew up in an era of thinking if it was that bad for us, it really shouldn't be put in our foods, and I'm sure the government wouldn't allow that," Dr. Tammy Born Huizenga, who owns and operates a preventive health care clinic, told The Daily Signal in an interview. "And it turns out they were allowing it. And your generation is like, 'I'm not sure I'm gonna trust the government in making all these decisions for me.'" Nearly 60% of Americans have heard about Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s "Make American Healthy Again" agenda, and the majority have a favorable view of the movement, which involves promoting healthier ingredients in foods, healthier school lunches, reducing the use of food dyes and corn syrup, and eliminating fluoride from tap water. The COVID-19 pandemic brought the problems with American health care into focus, Huizenga said. Tune in to find out what happens next: Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Everyone's Freaking Out About Tariffs—But Here's the Side No One Talks About Let's be real—every headline out there is yelling about doom and gloom: “Trade war! Economic collapse! Inflation!” But what if there's another side? In this episode, we zoom way out and unpack the other perspective. The one you're not hearing. The one that doesn't sell fear, but maybe offers… a little bit of hope? We get into: What tariffs actually are (yes, we break it down plain and simple) Why reciprocal tariffs aren't necessarily “bullying” The surprising benefits most media outlets are ignoring How this could affect YOU: jobs, taxes, prices, and your kids' future And yes… we even touch on the real reason so many Americans are uncomfortable right now. This isn't about politics. This is about understanding the full picture—and getting equipped to respond with wisdom, peace, and practical steps. Resources Mentioned

Mary's Mosaic: The CIA Conspiracy to Murder John F. Kennedy, Mary Pinchot Meyer, and Their Vision for World Peace: 3rd EditionThe death of Mary Meyer left many Americans with questions. Who really killed her? Why did CIA counterintelligence chief James Angleton rush to find and confiscate her diary? Had she discovered the plan to assassinate her lover, President Kennedy, with the trail of information ending at the steps of the CIA? Was it only coincidence that she was killed less than three weeks after the release of the Warren Commission Report?Fans of The Murder of Mary Russell, JFK: A Vision for America, and other JFK books will love Mary's Mosaic. Building and relying on years of interviews and painstaking research, author Peter Janney follows the key events and influences in Mary Pinchot Meyer's life—her first meeting with Jack Kennedy; her support of her secret lover, President Kennedy, as he worked towards the pursuit of world peace and away from the Cold War; and her exploration of psychedelic drugs. Fifty years after the assassinations of President Kennedy and Mary Meyer, this book helps readers understand why both took place.Author Peter Janney fought for two years to obtain documents from the National Personnel Records Center and the US Army to complete this third edition. It includes a final chapter about the mystery man who could be the missing piece to learn the truth behind Meyer's murder.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

April 19th, 2025 marks the 250th anniversary of the REAL American Declaration of Independence, when thousands of average, non-elite Americans declared their independence by deed over a year before the "leaders" in Philadelphia decided to declare it with ink & parchment. Because of this, and because I've recently published the collection of the entire Dangerous History American Revolution series in my Patreon shop, I decided to temporarily reissue DHP episode 59 (originally published in April 2015 & no longer available on the public DHP feed), which centers on the crucial year of 1775.

Today in Current Events from a Christian Perspective:Last yeat at Easter, the former President Biden encouraged Americans to celebrate trans day of visibility. This year is slightly different with Worship in the White House! Singing songs and hymns and spiritual songs to JESUS in the very house of American power. This is in a bit of a contrast to the previous administration but you still have quote unquote Christian leaders claiming Harris would have been better. I have people on my social media feeds posting how terrible Trump is as a human and what a disaster this present administration is, but for the life of me, I cannot figure out what they saw in the opposition? How can the anti-Christian, godless marxism be better? For Christians? I can only chalk it up to people being truly deceived. Colossians 2:8 "Be careful that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deceit based on human tradition, based on the elemental forces of the world, and not based on Christ."All this and more today on ChurchPublic!..---At Church Public we create compelling content to equip you to follow Jesus and engage in the public square including Current Events from a Christian Perspective.Thanks for watching!

The Trump administration's aggressive deportation practices, whether sending alleged gang members to a notorious El Salvadoran prison or rounding up foreign students for opposing Israel's war in Gaza, have led many pundits and others to raise the alarm about a Constitutional crisis and the evisceration of due process. But as Jimmy points out, this crisis has been decades in the making, and dates back to when Nobel Peace Prize-winner Barack Obama maintained a “kill list” and signed into law the virtual elimination of Habeas Corpus. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss why now all the President has to do is cry “terrorism” and Constitutional protections fly right out the Oval Office window.  Plus segments on the recent all-women Blue Origin “space flight” and the pro-Palestinian protester removed and arrested at a Bernie Sanders rally. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

President Trump is feuding with Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell. This all comes as Americans are feeling gloomier about the economy. Also, a judge found probable cause to find the government in criminal contempt, ruling that the Trump administration willfully disregarded an order to turn back airplanes carrying deported migrants to El Salvador, and President Trump says he is looking into whether the U.S. can detain citizens who commit crimes in overseas prisons.Want more comprehensive analysis of the most important news of the day, plus a little fun?
