Summary
EPISODE 220: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN
A-Block (1:43) SPECIAL COMMENT: Mark Meadows has flipped. There’s no other possible conclusion. The news has been coming for weeks. Per ABC, Meadows testified to the Jack Smith Election Grand Jury and to the Jack Smith Documents Grand Jury. And 20 members of the Trump Secret Service detail - past or present - have been subpoenaed to testify in Washington, while we begin to see what the third Smith Grand Jury in Miami is all about and how it might but Trump on trial there and not Washington.
And this all explains both why Bloomberg reports "Trump representatives in recent weeks have asked for recommendations of Washington-based counsel with trial experience…” and why Trump returned yesterday to stochastic terrorism. He made social media posts demanding that his thugs "fight" to prevent his indictment, just as he told the crowd on the Ellipse in Washington on January 6 to "fight" the certification. Dismiss Trump and his animal-like cunning and destructive skill at your peril and OUR peril. What you think you see in him is as bad as you think it is. Or worse. Always. Always. On January 6th. Yesterday. The Truth Social posts were made in hopes of getting somebody to attack Jack Smith or Merrick Garland or someone. The Trump thinking is not complex: "This other creature is in my way. Destroy this other creature."
B-Block (17:32) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: Chris Licht does it again! ANOTHER presidential town hall - and how you can get one. And when is the parade for CNN Media Reporter Oliver Darcy and will he be riding in the front car or in the metaphorical hearse in the back? (21:29) IN SPORTS: Don't delude yourself. The PGA golf tour did not "merge" with LIV Golf. It sold itself to the Saudis, after a year of talking about Saudi blood money. It's despicable and it will either be prevented, or it will destroy the sport in the country. And Jacob deGrom is probably out of baseball until Opening Day 2025. Who didn't see that coming? (26:59) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: It's condescending, proselytizing Harris Faulkner of Fox - and her pronouns are D,U,M,B.
C-Block (32:20) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Speaking of a great pitcher like Jacob deGrom, I actually once covered for one of the great pitchers of all-time, a jerk named Roger Clemens, because while he almost got in a fight with a fan during the World Series and I got it on tape, it truly wasn't his fault. So I suppressed the tape and cost myself a job.

| 1:49.2 | Meadows flipped. There's no other possible explanation. The news has been coming for weeks. All other conclusions seem to have been sealed off when the Iran War recording of Trump turned up, and it was made for an autobiography ghost writer and the autobiography was of Mark Meadows |
| 2:06.8 | and thus the tape belonged to Mark Meadows. Mark Meadows, the New York Times wrote last night, has testified before a federal grand jury hearing evidence in the investigations being led by the Special Counsel's Office according to two people briefed on the matter. |
| 2:22.8 | Times said it didn't know when Meadows testified, nor whether it was to the Jack Smith election grand jury or the Jack Smith documents grand jury. |
| 2:31.9 | But happily ABC news came to the rescue quote sources say Meadows answered questions on both Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election and Trump's alleged mishandling of classified documents. |
| 2:45.1 | It was on May 24th that CNN first pointed towards the Trump scandals version of Sherlock Holmes and the dog that did nothing in the night going all the way back to two weeks ago. |
| 2:59.0 | Quote, a source close to Trump's legal team said Trump's lawyers have had no contact with Meadows and his team and are in the dark on what Meadows is doing in the investigation. |
| 3:10.0 | We've all heard the same rumors. One Trump advisor told CNN, no one really knows what he's doing though. Well, now we know what he's doing. He's nailing Trump by Felicia. |
| 3:25.4 | There was one more nugget in the Times piece and it helps to explain why Trump turned to stochastic terrorism yesterday, which I will get back to in a moment. |
| 3:34.0 | Times has a quote from a Meadows attorney without commenting on whether or not Mr Meadows has testified before the grand jury or in any other proceeding. |
| 3:42.4 | Mr Meadows has maintained a commitment to tell the truth where he has a legal obligation to do so. |
