Kagro in the Morning - December 8, 2023

What happened when the U.S. failed to prosecute an insurrectionist ex-president? Well, we already failed to prosecute Jefferson Davis, the President of the Confederacy. So, what happened? It’s a long story… which happens to be David Waldman’s specialty, especially for Friday KITMs.   It turns out even that story wasn’t long and involved enough to stand up to a full two hours of Kagro scrutiny.  So, we brought in a recorded segment from Seth Chipman, entitled “What Hamas Promises, Iranians Know Too Well”.   But wait, there’s more! Police in Nepal have detained 10 people that they say had soaked unemployed youths for huge amounts of money, to then ship them off to the Russian army.   With the defeat of Russia by the Japanese in the Russo-Japanese War, Black intellectuals in the U.S. saw that White hegemony was not invincible.   Ceci n'est pas une “beignet”? The French line up at Krispy Kreme. Is it “ennui”? “Ironie”? Or, just “yummy”?
