The Deal with Ed Clark

Join us for this week's edition of The Deal. We take a deep dive into Kamala Harris' rise to the top of the Democratic Party's ticket after the sudden withdrawal of President Joe Biden. Fresh from endorsements from the Clintons, Obamas, and all of the Democratic Party leadership, VP Harris is taking to fight directly against Donald Trump. At the same time, the Republicans have stooped low with digs at Harris' race and gender. This presidential campaign promises to be nothing like any we have ever had in the history of America.

We can't go through one week without monumental news, so we are returning to bring you our take on the latest happenings from around the country. The Republicans threw a party, and not a lot of people seemed to care. The Republican convention's most significant news was Donald Trump's pick of JD Vance as his running mate. WTH! I don't get it from a political standpoint, but a lot of tech money may come with Vance on the ticket. Plus, we talk about how Tim Scott continues to make a fool of himself, the latest news on Trump's would-be assassin, a possible Harris/Cooper ticket, and more on this week's episode of The Deal with Ed Clark and Val Atkinson. Don't forget to tell others about the program and subscribe to all the podcast platforms, including YouTube and Facebook.

Unless you have been under a rock, you know there was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump. Join us as we discuss what happened, how it happened, and what happens next. Plus, we preview the Republican National Convention and follow up on the calls for Joe Biden to step aside.

Did you watch the presidential debate? If you are a Democrat, you probably think it was the end of Joe Biden's campaign. But I see it differently. Join Val Atkinson and me as we do our post-mortem and tell you what you really should have been paying attention to. Plus, we take a deep dive into the latest Supreme Court decisions and talk about the real chances for Joe Biden to win in a place like North Carolina. Please share with all your friends. The election could determine whether the Right takes over for the next few decades, and there will be nothing you can do about it.

Join Val Atkinson and me as we catch up on the most significant international and national news stories. Whether it is Putin in North Korea, the latest in the Middle East, or the big decisions being made by the US Supreme Court, we have got you covered. Plus, we talk about MLB recognizing the Negro Leagues, the passing of Willie Mays, and the release of Val's new book, “DISTRACTIONS” DISTORTIONS, DECEPTIONS, and Outright LIES: “Diversions that keep the South Red, Poor People Poor, and Plutocrats & Oligarchs in Power.” Val's book is available on Amazon—all of that and much more, this week on The Deal.

The Supreme Court took up absolute immunity and whether or not emergency room doctors could be barred from giving life-saving reproductive services. The outcome of both cases is sure not to please everyone. Join Val and me as we dive into the Supreme Court, Trump on trial, protest on college campuses against Isreal, Biden on the attack, and returning the Heisman Trophy to Reggie Bush. All that and more is in another information-packed edition of The Deal.

Iran launches retaliatory strikes against Israel, but is it over? In this week's episode, Val and I try to make sense of the endless violence that grips the Middle East.

NC gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinison's past money troubles, OJ Simpson's legacy, Catlin Clark's legacy, and much more.

Happy Easter!!! Join us for another information-packed episode. We dig into the importance of replacing infrastructure as we discuss the Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore. The Right wasted no time blaming the black mayor of Baltimore, immigrants, DEI, and any crazy conspiracy instead of the failure of the ship's stirring for the tragedy. Plus, the NC and SC legislatures rush to pass laws against DEI in public institutions. We can't leave out Donald Trump and his hawking bibles just in time for Easter, his court problems, and his apparent inability to raise money to cover his board in NY. We also look at Joe Biden and his push to make NC a battleground state. We also talk some March Madness basketball, and a whole lot more.

Join us for this week's episode as we discuss the latest news on the trials of Donald Trump. Does Trump have the money to pay the judgment in NY? What about the Republicans with another House member resigning? Now, there is just a one-seat majority. What about the mass killings in Moscow and unrest in Gaza and Haiti? We cover all that, plus March Madness and anything else we can fit into this information-packed episode.

The Fulton County Judge in the Trump RICO case just stabbed the American people in the back. That's fitting for the day. Ask Julius Ceasar how it feels to be double-crossed. Join me, along with retired political science professor Val Atkinson, as we get you caught up on the latest from GA, the State of the Union, Immigration, and the proposed ban of TikTok. Plus, we go in-depth on the whacky NC gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson—all that and much more in this special edition of The Deal.
