Bruce is away again, but Dale and Michael took up the slack, discussing the Trade War that President Trump escalated via tweet on Friday. In addition, he said he was ordering companies to start shutting down their business with China. The Dow dropped 536 points. It was a deeply wierd ending to a week that started with President Trump attempting to buy Greenland, also via tweet. The Supreme Court announced that RBG was treated for a cancerous tumor over the summer, but she's all better now. Hopefully, she'll stay on the court past the election, thus avoiding Ragnarok. The CEO of Overstock resigned this week, revealing that he had carried out a romantic engagement with convicted Russian spy Marina Butina at the behest of Peter Strzock. He had been in a relationship with her previously, but he took pains to assure the American people that he didn't lay a finger on Butina...the second time around. Imagine our relief. David Koch died, unleashing an unpleasant cheer from the Progressives, proving once again that they are awful human beings. Joe Rogan, the menacing guy from the 1990s sitcom "Broadcast News" and current MMA announcer, is now the most trusted journalist in America. Also, listen to the History of Rome Podcast if you get a chance. It's good.
