Kagro in the Morning - November 10, 2026 10.11.2026 1:56:21
David Waldman has so much… too much to tell you today! Between lessons from him and AOC, you will learn a lot! Donald K. Trump called in to C-SPAN accompanied by a tittering Stephen Miller… or perhaps that was Lauren Boebert just giving Donald a hand recount? That's unclear… however Trump has made this clear; he is ready to work with his new Democratic majority and have them executed. It's the new...
Kagro in the Morning - November 9, 2026 09.11.2026 1:56:37
David Waldman isn't yet sick of winning and hopes to load up on some more this week. Dems won, Gops lost in so many ways that Greg Dworkin needed two rafts for all of the stories today. What a card! Donald K. Trump was pretending to make the "Dana White" that he knew for years as his new press secretary rather than the one only a few Washington insiders had even heard about as a joke, get it? Well...
Kagro in the Morning - November 6, 2026 06.11.2026 1:56:34
It turns out that David Waldman finds his hands just as full disseminating the good news as he did with the bad! The National Capital Planning Reichstag has rubber-stamped the Donald K. Trump memorial arch & guard tower, which was blocked just before the bulldozers could warm up. Trump then issued an edict that his cheesecake factory will never have to face renovation like Saddam's. Hey, where'd t...
Kagro in the Morning - November 5, 2026 05.11.2026 1:56:42
David Waldman and Greg Dworkin bring us good news and cheer for the second day in a row! It turns out that the polls were wrong as usual, but in a more pleasant direction this time. Oh well. You win some, you lose some… and Dems sure won some! Dems won huge, in big ways and small, from over here to over there across the whole United States, including Nevada, West Virginia and Texas, and sometimes...
Kagro in the Morning - November 4, 2026 04.11.2026 1:56:34
David Waldman and Greg Dworkin, together again! And our headline story is, for once, not horrific! Hey, we won! Red riptide turned to a blue tsunami last night. Not just a tsunami, but tsunamis, a tsunami of tsunamis. Historic wins, historic winners, rights won, rights protected, big wins with more to come. In almost as welcome news, bad lost! Vivek, Susan, Darlene, Elon (kinda), at least a couple...
Kagro in the Morning - November 3, 2026 03.11.2026 1:56:27
It's the last day of voting! Because you have, in all likelihood, already made your decision, we will defy Greg's designation of this election as a persuasion election, and just talk about the various ways in which Donald Trump is a total dumbass. First, he made a total dumbass speech yesterday. And he chose as a setting the site of his totally dumbass "renovation" of the Reflecting Pool. What a t...
Kagro in the Morning - November 2, 2026 02.11.2026 1:56:35
David Waldman weaves a tight KITM today, with a day before midterms. The polls say… well, you know what the polls say. Polling hopefully weighted the morons correctly this time, but you never know… well, you probably know that too. You know you should vote tomorrow if you haven't, right? Dan J. Sullivan is no Jill Stein. Her supporters didn't get a visit from the FBI to double check their intentio...
Kagro in the Morning - October 30, 2026 30.10.2026 1:56:10
David Waldman ends the week we'll probably be fondly reminiscing about, marveling at the peace and harmony of those halcyon days… The DOJ is charging California state and local officials with something; it doesn't really matter what. In Alaska and California Trump's point isn't to win in court, it's to create losers. Elena Kagan will tell you it's not about the law anymore. Todd Blanche is persona...
Kagro in the Morning - October 29, 2026 29.10.2026 1:56:39
David Waldman returns to straighten out this mess, two hours at a time. Normally astute, eminently sagacious Greg Dworkin can't shake that Elon monkey on his back. A sad, dirty habit, not to mention that it took me 20 minutes to find substitute links. Sorry, but a couple of those roaches still did skitter through. And there's the polls. Even Nate Silver would rather talk about vibes. Democrats in...
Kagro in the Morning - October 28, 2026 28.10.2026 1:56:43
David Waldman and Greg Dworkin deliver a KITM with only a week to go before the election denying begins! in the meantime, we have polls, early voting, and other bone throwing to parse. Things are bad, so that's good. Dems are voting like there's no tomorrow. If Gops don't vote tomorrow, Democrats could win, or maybe make Republicans win by less, which is kind of nice. At least Bottoms is up in the...
Kagro in the Morning - October 27, 2026 27.10.2026 1:56:22
David Waldman gets us within a week of election day. Let's keep going! 0 days since a Trump rally didn't mention ass. This time at least, it was Trump's fat ass… JD likey! Not a KITM summary goes by that we don't point out the connection between Russia, Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Kompromat Trump's America. Today we have the House Judiciary Committee report of Donald joining in Epstein's sexual abu...
Kagro in the Morning - October 26, 2026 26.10.2026 1:56:52
Election day is next week! David Waldman reviews the weekend and previews the week, and finally Greg Dworkin returns hauling another Raft O' Stories dropping only a few tips into the mega-MAGA donor's tip jar. Polls. You shouldn't rely on them, even when they aren't fake. Early voting results, neither. Lawn signs… maybe. In fact, if you are a candidate caught stealing your opponent's signs, it mig...
Kagro in the Morning - October 23, 2026 23.10.2026 1:56:14
David Waldman meets our admittedly high expectations with today's Friday KITM. Shocker! There are people in the world who purportedly believe that Jared Kushner acted as a "diplomatic envoy" at some point during his life and now want him to quit! That's insane. When would Jared Kushner have the time? A Dutch phone hack shows that Jared wasn't in Middle Eastern pockets just to gather lint, but to m...
Kagro in the Morning - October 22, 2026 22.10.2026 1:56:35
David Waldman is back and solo again, as Greg is still out supervising construction on the east wing of KITM World Headquarters. In Ohio, few people were fully aware of what a prick Vivek Ramaswamy is. Vivek himself finally got the word out this week with the help of Amy Acton's own rape facilitating, fugitive harboring, serial swindling, kitten abusing mother. Vivek's ad has been so successful th...
Kagro in the Morning - October 21, 2026 21.10.2026 1:55:37
David Waldman deflects the information firehose our way for a couple of hours. What an ass! Donald K. Trump never studied the body of a man before, but now that he has, it's the only thing on his mind. It could be ass-envy as Donald's is more machine than ass at this point. Yesterday, Trump was so busy slapping his rudder that his upper half lost control and started waving at nonexistent crowds. H...
Kagro in the Morning - October 20, 2026 20.10.2026 1:56:36
A clear Tuesday calendar (with the exception of a note from Scott Anderson that he's out-of-pocket today) left us with a stark choice: dive into just a few key stories, in-depth, or; a flurry of lightning round treatments of a dozen or more stories, all figuring into a more complete understanding of the national political climate? Answer: the few key stories. First up, that damn golf course story....
Kagro in the Morning - October 19, 2026 19.10.2026 2:03:52
David Waldman kept today's KITM going until his last UPS died. Listen on Libsyn! Bert Mizusawa might have what it takes to win an election, but not in David's county, they're picky there. Gops are struggling and Elon Musk needs every penny he can get to give to them. Greg Dworkin does what he can to support Elon by promoting many of the very links that you are about to open. It's not about the pol...
Kagro in the Morning - October 16, 2026 16.10.2026 1:56:19
David Waldman presents another KITM under the cloud of another mass shooting. This time, a teen shooter killed four people in an elementary school before apparently encountering some bystander cleaning their gun. He was stopped before he made it to the Nurse's Office, where Trump was aiming him. We can only hope that future shooters will become too stupid to operate guns. A trillionaire supervilla...
Kagro in the Morning - October 15, 2026 15.10.2026 1:56:35
David Waldman bides his time and ours till the election, by releasing another fascinating KITM. Elon Musk is a supervillain who has actually chosen to kill millions, not because of profit or ideology, but by whim. He owns a microblogging propaganda website that Greg Dworkin visits in order to supply our polling fix. Dems are polling well. Gops are getting killed, but in this case, figuratively. De...
Kagro in the Morning - October 14, 2026 14.10.2026 1:56:30
David Waldman and Greg Dworkin take us one day closer to Election Day. And Halloween! Probably a few others we wouldn't want in a hurry, but Election Day can be ASAP. Horoscopes and polls predict the future about equally well, yet the day after with a bad horoscopevdoesn't hit quite so hard. The best thing about recent polling, however, is that Republicans do believe it, and are cracking under the...
Kagro in the Morning - October 13, 2026 13.10.2026 1:56:24
David Waldman brings us the newest about the latest on KITM. Donald K. Trump opened his Circle of Hell in Youngstown, to praise John Husted's impressive "data center". I don't know how Husted should take this, as Donald was probably lying. Apparently, kickbacks were running thin and Kimberly Guilfoyle had to be let go, that is, fed to the wolves. Trump ended the war between Russia and Ukraine with...
Kagro in the Morning - October 12, 2026 12.10.2026 1:56:44
David Waldman congratulates Hitler Mussolini, one of the "good ones", on today's jam-packed KITM. For several months, Greg Dworkin has brought us polls which we understood were really probably not portents of anything to come. Well, those days are done, that cake has sailed, we now have early voting results not meriting our credence, many gleaned from the least trustable place on earth. Nonetheles...
Kagro in the Morning - October 9, 2026 09.10.2026 1:56:36
David Waldman treats us to another KITM beforeanother jerky weekend. Did you hear? There's talk about impeaching Donald K. Trump and Pete Kegsbreth! So much so that the two of them teamed up to introduce a frankly compelling alternative. Yes, it is impossible to underestimate the depravity of this administration. Next up against the wall are slated to be Somalis. Not just any Somalis but... no......
Kagro in the Morning - October 7, 2026 07.10.2026 1:56:19
David Waldman keeps waking up with computer problems that he previously solved yet can't remember how. Henceforth, future tech solutions will be tattooed somewhere on his body. Greg Dworkin rounded up the punditry and the polls. The polls show voters heading towards to the blue everywhere, no matter how red. Where it's blue the lead grows past double digits. Meanwhile, Red regret soars. Texans mig...
