Jeremy and I talk about another wild week in your "Nation's Capitol." A week that saw President Donald Trump muse about a military parade, White House Chief of Staff Gen. John Kelly gets into hot water over his defense of  Rob Porter, who resigned as White House staff secretary Wednesday after his two ex-wives publicly accused him of domestic abuse.

Then to top the week off we have a mini-shutdown of the government because Sen, Rand Paul (R-KY) wanted to make a point. Meanwhile, a bipartisan budget bill passed both houses of Congress and was signed by President Trump.

What a week! We need a laugh and Jeremy is here to help!

On Friday, February 10th see Dennis Miller in person at the beautiful Silver Legacy Resort Casino

I talk with Sports Business expert Evan Weiner about what is the biggest sports scandal in United States history. Dr. Larry Nassar the once world-renowned sports physician treating America's foremost Olympic women gymnasts will spend the rest of his life behind bars.

The disgraced former USA Gymnastics and Michigan State University doctor was sentenced to 40 to 175 years in prison, a judge announced Wednesday after more than 150 women and girls said in court that he sexually abused them over the past two decades.

The House Energy and Commerce Committee will hold a hearing on the aforementioned misconduct, as well as sexual-abuse reports in USA Swimming and Taekwondo.

Among the victims are decorated US Olympians, including Aly Raisman, Gabby Douglas, and Simone Biles. But the majority were not famous competitors. They were students and young female athletes — gymnasts, dancers, and volleyball players. Now it is up to Congress to make sure this never happens again.

Foreign Fighters and Mercenaries Fueling Libyan Conflict by Joseph Hammond reads like a novel but it is a true story of how if the United States does not start paying attention to Africa it could come back to haunt us. Here is a small snippet from the story that will give you an idea of what we talked about.

The presence of large groups of foreign fighters in Libya is in striking contrast to other regional conflicts. The Syrian Civil War and the larger struggle against the Assad regime, for example, has attracted lone jihadists from around the world.  The Libyan Civil war, by contrast, has attracted entire military units and terrorist groups are joining the conflict. Notable examples include Da'esh, possibly Hamas, as well as rebel movements from nations in the Sahel region of Africa.

Washington Bureau Chief Jim Williams is joined by a former member of the George W. Bush admiration Alan Steinberg as they tie up some loose political ends. The entertaining political duo talk about the #MeToo movement, the new GOP tax law and the future of the all-important CHIP program.

But they also focus on what might happen in 2018 when there will be some very important mid-term elections. Listen to find out what the key issues of the day will be. The Politically Incorrect Podcast powered by the issue tracking folks at Voterheads.com
