Summary

After a month long vacation, Abby Martin is back to catch up with Robbie. They talk about everything from their sadness over the death of their favorite comedian Norm Macdonald to their disdain towards the recently deceased Colin Powell, the man who became a human symbol for bipartisan militarism and was a vehicle for liberal acceptance of neoconservative foreign policy and endless war in the Clinton, Bush and Obama eras.

1:11.9	we're suddenly right. And I'm getting all these messages and notifications on Twitter saying
