We are recording Thursday afternoon on the 80th anniversary of the D-Day invasion that saved the world from a narcissistic, paranoid, racist and psychotic would-be world dictator. Our mission 80 years later as beneficiaries of their courage and sacrifice: constantly protect their legacy. In this week's political news: Convicted felon Donald Trump and his gang of MAGAs, several of whom are also convicted felons, are openly planning on turning the U.S. Justice Department into their revenge squad. The former president's conviction has produced a small pro-Biden bump in the polls, meaning it's still a tossup election. His vice president is in Detroit this weekend, headlining the state Democratic Party's annual fundraising dinner.

Photo is A.I. generated We recorded this week's podcast at 5 p.m. EDT Thursday. Minutes before we hit the ‘record' button, the New York jury handed down its verdict...so Jeff had to put on his Lincoln Project hat. In his absence Walt Sorg joins Mark on a day that will go down in American history. Clearly the guilty verdict on 34 felony counts is our #1 topic, but there are other talk-worthy stories in our political biosphere: Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito refuses to follow the ethical standards demanded of all federal judges except him and his colleagues. Flags or no flags, he's not recusing from January 6-related cases because it's all about his stubborn wife and has nothing to do with him. Sure. Chief Justice John Roberts adds to the court's arrogance by declining an invitation from the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee to talk about his court's ethics. The movers and shakers of Michigan business and politics are just now ending their annual policy party on Mackinac Island. We'll review the highlights of a pretty substantive week with Bridge Michigan reporter Lauren Gibbons. Macomb County Executive Mark Hackel hints he'll run for Governor in two years … and then says he won't vote for President Biden. That's not going to help him much with Democratic voters. Tudor Dixon's gift of a half-million-dollars from her losing gubernatorial campaign draws a second look from state regulators.

TRAITOR TUESDAY-Trumplandia Edition-Ukraine Trumplandia Letter To A Friend Milch Pogash Republicans Supporting Putin Resist Wrap Up (Carol Pogash books) Bill Maher Tucker Carlson Fox(Faux) NewsUKRAINIAN THEME THROUGHOUThttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1mU6h4XdxcWe begin with my interpretation of the Trumplandia name,(Disturbia, by Rhianon-see link) and some historical articles on Trumplandia, and some websites. I highlight throughout the Pod, an article written by Eric Milch where he wrote a fictional letter from the future dated 2024 assuming that Trump managed to win, the coup was successful, and what life is like for folks. I also quote other articles written a year or more ago, to highlight the fact that what seems to be occurring today, was written about before and has become semi prophetic.I briefly highlight Alexander Vindman's comments from this week, and reporting by Ukrainians, and I continue the Ukrainian thread throughout this episode becasue so much of the traitor elements of Trumplandia focus around Putin, and Ukraine.I then mention Carol Pogash's books, and quote from her article, *LINKS ARE BELOW* who has written books called "Seduced By Madness,"" Chairman Trump, and "As real As It Gets"Mark Fiore podcast is mentioned, and a link to his reporting on Trumplandia.Putin's party Alexi Bayer (credit) and his insights into how the GOP has become the party of Putin by proxy. Trumplandia news, and GOP candidates, who trumpet the Putin party line, and seemingly support Russia's claims in Ukraine, including Tucker Carlson, and Bill Maher, Fox (Faux) News, and the fact that Russian TV is espousing Fox(Faux New) in glowing termsI then go on a rather lengthy wrap up this episode trying to poll a whole bunch of threads together. I continue to say folks need to start listening to us screaming in the void on this, and i equate what Putin is doing in Ukraine, as a model for what he would like to do in the US. as always I encourage folks to Resist peacefully legally and non violently.Republicans Can't Wait to Be Putin's Special Guest at a Biden Debate That's Never Happeningolder article talking about the Putin debate he wanted to haveRussian State TV Is Head Over Heels In Love With Tucker Carlson And Wants Putin To Sit Down For An Interview With Him (vanity fairt)Fox News Exposed As Putin Propaganda Machine By Russian State Media(2021)Bill Maher: China Hasn't Triumphed Over The West In The Ways That Really MatterMaher: U.S. Uses Monroe Doctrine To Defend West, Russia Views Ukraine As Its Ancestral Homehttps://medium.com/illumination/a-letter-to-my-friend-in-trumplandia-3b30ec336ca3faux newshttps://progressive.org/latest/trumplandia/https://www.huffpost.com/entry/welcome-to-trumplandia_b_9275370https://trumplandiamagazine.com/https://www.theglobalist.com/united-states-donald-trump-republican-party-russia-vladimir-putin/https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2021/03/vladimir-putin-joe-biden-debatehttps://uproxx.com/viral/russia-today-boss-loves-tucker-carlson/https://www.politicususa.com/2021/03/19/fox-news-russia-state-media.htmlhttps://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2022/02/19/bill_maher_china_hasnt_triumphed_over_the_west_in_the_ways_that_really_matter_.htmlhttps://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2022/02/19/maher_us_uses_monroe_doctrine_to_defend_west_russia_views_ukraine_as_its_ancestral_home.htmlCAROL POGASH BOOKShttps://www.amazon.com/Carol-Pogash/e/B0034OPXJM%3Fref=dbs_a_mng_rwt_scns_share#TPRBreakingNews #SupportLiberalPodcasts #WomenWithScissors**ALL ARTICLES ARE VETTED AND PROPER CREDIT IS GIVEN TO WRITERS AND WEBSITES.**Breaking news intro
