Kagro in the Morning - January 19, 2026

David Waldman and Greg Dworkin are back and podding harder than ever.

Today is Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Ish Kabibble's birthday, and National False Equivalency Day.

So, who thought that giving Donald K. Trump a free Noble prize would placate him? It did not, as acquiesce only makes him angrier. Now Trump will take revenge against the Nobel Prize Committee in Norway by taking Greenland from Denmark. The world isn't laughing anymore, especially not at Billy Long joking about throwing Iceland in on the deal. Bernie Sanders trips over his own shtick.

Back at home, most people hate everything that Trump is doing, because most people are sane. Bipartisan agreement between sane and insane can be found on the release of the Epstein files. People oppose ICE when the only thing keeping everyone from being shot are Donald's morals, which leaked out long before half of his brains did.

Columbia University graduate Mahmoud Khalil might be rearrested as the law is rearranged to disfavor him. How does Lindsey Halligan not do it? Lindsey remains an attorney no matter what the law says, because the law is irrelevant to this administration.

Stinkiest human windfarm, Donald pardons the worst crap, as often as it pleases him, or makes others angry, he doesn't put much thought into it. Trump endorses a candidate who is not yet running against her opponent, who is an incumbent who usually supports him.

Good news! Virginia welcomes Her Excellency, Governor Abigail Spanberger, already making state colleges and universities smarter. The state is also redistricting, in the good direction. Bad news! Anything being produced by Bari Weiss, and OG bad news, Fox News.
