John and Chris are safe and sound in ITR Live's Studio 130, thankful that they are not lost at sea trapped in a metal tube 13,000 feet below the ocean surface with only 3 days worth of oxygen.

Hunter Biden gets a sweetheart plea deal, avoiding not only prison time, but also any real scrutiny over his wide-ranging malfeasance. Finally, the Iowa Supreme Court continues it's assault on independence of the Iowa legislature.
