Trump Indictments, Maui and Climate Change, Prigozhin Murder

Mike and Jay open the preview of this supporters’ midweek episode with a look at the latest developments surrounding Donald Trump’s indictments. They discuss the sensation surrounding Trump’s mug shot as well as House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan’s announcement of an investigation into Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who indicted Trump on multiple felony counts related to his alleged attempts to overturn Joe Biden’s 2020 victory in Georgia. Next, they turn to President Biden’s reaction to the tragic fires on the Hawaiian island of Maui as well as the connection between the fires and the larger issue of global climate change. Mike makes the case for a link and while Jay doesn’t disagree, he argues that many on the left are too quick to blame climate change. They close with a discussion of the murder of Wagner Group head Yevgeniy Prigozhin – the latest in a long line of suspicious deaths linked to Russian dictator Vladimir Putin.
