this incredibly corrupt private playing gift, which he is going to post through it.

He just keeps posting through it.

We've really reoriented the moral compass of America in which we are now envious of the Petro

Well, I'm looking forward to a little fun today here on the bulwark platform.

I'm so glad you could join us because my guest is a longtime buddy of mine, Sam Stein,

the managing editor of the bulwark. So yeah, kind of like, you know, the boss. He is just

a real good journalist, real good Washington reporter. Prior to his current assignment, he was the White House editor for Politico, a politics editor at The Daily Beast, and covered national politics for HuffPost, where he was one of the site's first political reporters.

He's a frequent contributor on my network at MSNBC.

He's a funny guy, smart guy, talented journalist, and I look forward to welcoming him to the Michael Steel podcast right after this.

Hey, folks, it's me.

Welcome back to the Michael Steel podcast.

As always a special treat, we decide to grab yourself a nice little adult beverage in a coffee cup.
