All good things must come to an end. Also this podcast...

The penultimate episode -- one hopes -- of the podcast. Trying to tie up a lot of loose ends before next week's sign-off.

Trump fully unfurled his freak flag, with disastrous and predictable results.

A start to the New Year but not yet an end to the old B.S.

In the season of giving, Trump continues to give it to us.

The more things don't change, the more they get even worse.

It's all over other than the fact it's not all over just yet...

Pancakes are meant to be overturned. Elections -- not so much.

Another week where Trump remains ensconced in an alternate reality, where crimes undermining democracy deserve pardons and the will of the people is to be disputed rather than embraced.

Trump's behavior this week was literally par for the course -- since that's where he spent most of his time.
