Judge Napolitano & I look into what happened to the Fourth Estate, and why. I found the subject so dismal that I tried to lighten things up a bit with a lame joke – before turning to real low-life examples like NYT’s David Sanger & those who air Petraeus.

There are brutal consequences from hanging on to the forlorn belief that the USA is indispensable, exceptional. Ray and Garland Nixon discuss Patrick Lawrence’s excellent article on “US Exceptionalism and Its Consequences”

9/11 Commission Co-chairs Keane and Hamilton admit they were set up to fail. Instead, we got the MOTHER OF ALL COVERUPS. Did eminence grise Cheney intimidate intelligence chiefs to let it happen, then do the same to Establishment media? A look at evidence.

Larry Johnson and I talk Blinken blinders; NATO Doltenberg is asked re “rules-based international order”; how the same ivy-mantled halls that gave us (Halberstam’s) “Best & Brightest” on Vietnam have yielded “Worst & Dimmest” today.

Surprise! Russia has given advanced ICBM to North Korea. White House flummoxed; not yet able to craft Memo to Media as to how to handle. I just briefed the judge on this based largely on work of Ted Postol, Prof Emeritus, MIT.

Interview re Putin was short on biography, long on experience, esp on Ukraine. Did mention brother Viktor died during 872-day siege of Leningrad. Didn’t know till Putin said it today that his grandmother was fatally shot by Nazi soldier. Rambling on rumble

Tucker ups Pucker Factor in captive media. Muscles so tight, impervious to laxative. His interview of Hungarian PM quickly gets over 100 million views. https://magyarnemzet.hu/english/2023/08/no-stopping-tucker-carlsons-interview-with-pm-orban-receives-more-than-100-million-views
Larry Johnson and I comment on Orban’s remarks, on the Judge’s Roundtable today.

Did Mitt Romney inherit the gene for brainwashing from his dad George, who blew his chance to become president after admitting he had be “brainwashed” on Vietnam? The apple never falls far from tree. Will Mitt eventually admit being brainwashed on Ukraine?

Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov once joked responding to critics of Russia for having the temerity to place its country in midst of NATO military bases! But for Russia, NO JOKE. I briefed in detail https://raymcgovern.com/2023/05/03/if-the-missile-fits-beware/
Also discussed Monday w/the Judge.

Thomas Karat of the Netherlands gave me time and space for a tour d’horizon-type interview and inserted up front ‘This-Is-Your-Life’-type short video clips of me, starting with my Feb. 21 briefing the UN Security Council on sabotage of Nordstream pipeline.
