After Musk's endorsement of the QAnon Pizzagate conspiracy theory, I won't be posting here any more. There are a couple of prescheduled promos for the Podcast, the last runs ~10PM I'm on the other socials under my name or some variation of Countdown With KO/Keith Olbermann. Besides the fact that @elonmusk Is an antisemite and a moron who will eat the latest shit one of his sycophants hands him, Twitter is no longer an effective means of promotion. One recent podcast day had 125,000 downloads/YT views. There are precise metrics as to "where"...

Reading @TimAlberta's Iliad-like @TheAtlantic chronicle of the walking, semi-sentient disaster that is @CNN CEO Chris Licht, I kept thinking this would be the last paragraph:

"Finally, came the call. Licht was out. At least he'd have more time to spend with his trainer." Image 2/♾️
It is hard to imagine that a profile of anybody less egregiously antisocial than a serial killer could begin with this - Licht dismissing the complexity of the key to a now 8-year-long fascist coup designed to destroy American democracy - AND THEN GO DOWNHILL FROM HERE: ImageImage

CNN Trump journalistic
disaster bleeds over to ratings and rebellion:

-Just 700k demo viewers - an average day for "Good Morning America"
-staff rage over platforming Trump
-CEO Licht on 9 AM call insists it “made a lot of news”

THURS. COUNTDOWN PODCAST: tinyurl.com/vnakv635 Given the ratings fail AND the critical disaster AND the internal blowback, the opportunity now arises:

If Wolf Blitzer, Anderson Cooper and/or Jake Tapper spoke out against NOW, CLicht would be pushed down those stairs TOMORROW.

Man up, guys.

TRUMP IS LIABLE for sexual abuse. Unfortunately he’s still liable to be live on CNN tonight spewing lies while a former Tucker Carlson writer nods.

DEBT CEILING: Biden invoking the 14th?

HARLAN CROW: Senate subpoena?

WEDNESDAY COUNTDOWN PODCAST: tinyurl.com/2d4cbrdn PLUS: You now know who E. Jean Carroll did and what she's done for this country.

Did you know that three decades ago she inadvertently helped create both @MSNBC and @FoxNews?

WITCH-HUNT? Looks like Trump IS a witch. Carroll Jury finds him liable for sexual abuse. He’s also liable to still be on CNN tonight

SANTOS INDICTED: Election Fraud?

FEINSTEIN SIGHTING? No, just a CLAIMING there was one.

BREAKING: No video cameras as Trump is arraigned; one in the hallway; still photogs inside but only beforehand.

And ALL 34 Counts are felonies not just 1. Trump leaks the details, tries to blame Bragg, leaves his fingerprints.

TUESDAY COUNTDOWN PODCAST: tinyurl.com/3h2347hm PLUS: 60 Minutes ratings crash to 6.66 Million, live, thanks to Marjorie Taylor Greene.

CNN and MSNBC showing Trump in a car, a plane, and another car was then trying to cuddle up to the Trump crowd. They've done it before: hear the saga of Michael Savage tinyurl.com/3h2347hm Image

BREAKING: THEY HAVE FINALLY INDICTED THE PROVERBIAL HAM SANDWICH.

On white.

Manhattan DA's office confirms: Trump indicted on a reported 34 counts. Nice he finally got the most votes.

The Trump Tower neigborhood is quiet. TOO quiet.

FRIDAY COUNTDOWN: omny.fm/shows/countdow… OH YEAH: I promised you Trump's 2014 fan letter to me. There it is.

Trump has today issued repeated stochastic terrorist calls for his cult to "remove" the "animal" Alvin Bragg - and use a baseball bat.

@DHSgov and @TheJusticeDept need to arrest him, today. No perp walk, no bail.

He's trying to get this man killed. Period. Enough. I've known Trump since 1983. Even so -- I don't mind confessing -- I thought the baseball bat one was a fake. That's how dangerous this moment is. He is channeling January 6th again. Arrest him today.

@TiffanyDCross @kurtbardella @nayyeroar @DeeTwoCents @WajahatAli @ElieNYC I've told this story on the podcast. Looking at the guests/reporters list on a 2008 primary night I asked where Maddow was. I was told she was on Larry King that night. I was aghast. "How? She's a paid contributor!" My producer said no, they told you they were going to sign her.. @TiffanyDCross @kurtbardella @nayyeroar @DeeTwoCents @WajahatAli @ElieNYC ...but that was a lie to shut you up, basically." She told me Larry offered her $250 and she really needed the cash.

I had been told we were paying her $40-$50k. My life flashed before my eyes. "We'll never get her back. They'll sign her and the next thing we know she'll be...

BEHOLD! The fascist orgasm of naked pusillanimous fear that Trump will be arrested.

An arrest WON'T trigger major protests. It WON'T win Trump the White House. It WILL terrify the bullies.

The BIG Trump story? Evan Corcoran's notes.

MONDAY'S COUNTDOWN: tinyurl.com/4hhw83b4 PLUS the symbolic hilarity of the Proud Boys getting the crap beaten out of them at "Drag Story Hour" in NYC's Greenwich Village.

I tell the story here: tinyurl.com/4hhw83b4but not as well as Oliya's video does:

I'll spare you having to watch @TuckerCarlson - here's the gist of his "Gaslight 1/6 Hour" tonight:

"The Q Shaman didn't kill anybody therefore he's innocent therefore they're all innocent therefore @Liz_Cheney lied to you therefore Trump won. Now here's another Murdoch clown" Also he keeps saying "The video proves this" even though - shock - the video proves nothing and shows nothing.

Upshot of this is that, after they sue this scumbag Carlson, Cheney and @AdamKinzinger whom he called "liars" will be the new co-owners of @foxnews with Dominion.
