COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN - SEASON 5 EPISODE 18
A-Block (SPECIAL COMMENT): "...the actual evidence we have seen...indicates that Trump abused, assaulted, and even raped numerous women alongside, and in coordination with, the most infamous sex trafficker in history."
The House Judiciary Democrats call for a Special Counsel to investigate Trump-Epstein. The appalling new details in their Staff Report on Trump-Epstein, and the equally appalling reasons the media won't let you see it: The New York Times doesn't mention it but at last look it has SIX pieces up about Obama and The Cheesecake Factory trivia.
The evidence, they write, "shows that Trump lied about kicking Epstein out of his Mar-a-Lago club and strongly suggests that Epstein introduced Trump to his wife Melania."
But tell me more about phony umbrage from a phony populist with phony hair who then boasts that his own supporters can't afford to eat at his clown college Temu Diner.
TRUMP SEEMS POISED TO NOT PULL OUT ALL THE MID-TERM STOPS: since HE is not at personal risk, he'll push frivolous suits (California? Minnesota? Where that idiot ex-colleague of mine Michele Tafoya is down by FOURTEEN) and perhaps seize ballots but not try another January 6. Once again, his candidates are the Democrats' greatest assets: after his ad starring Amy Acton's psychotic birth mother, Ramaswamy now trails by four and is dragging the GOP Senator down with him, and El-Sayed has pulled up by six in Michigan.
MEDIA: Bill Maher boasts about how much he and Trump like each other, while Trump is composing a 1300-word screed making him somehow smaller even than he is in real life, and just what you asked for: Chuck Todd and Chris Cillizza joining forces to bring you the latest in politics (if it's 1998).
B-Block (36:00) Things I Promised Not To Tell: What happens when you have the football draft scoop of all scoops? That the possible first draft pick has already signed in Canada? And as you confront him, the camera man forgets to hit "record"?
C-Block (1:00:00) Good Night and Good Luck!
