    Thu 3:09pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman brings us another two hours of KITM, while Greg Dworkin puts down his Xbox controller for an hour to join in the latest news and badinage. But his emails! The House Oversight Committee gave us a small nasty taste of what's to come in the…

    Wed 3:35pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman and Greg Dworkin are convening in working session today for the first time since Monday to address the national backlog of news and punditry. It's day two of the shutdown… cave by the Democrats. Dems knew when to hold'em, say they knew when…
  • Kagro in the Morning - November 11, 2025

    Tue 3:44pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman has some explaining to do, and just the venue to do it. Dems spent a half week too close to the sun before finding a nice familiar cave to retreat to, back safe in the protective arms of the Gop, who have promised to quit beating them, this…

    Mon 3:33pm By David Waldman
    Acting! The Kagro in the Morning Players, Messrs. David Waldman and Greg Dworkin, debut the first of their one-act plays: "It's Not So Bad, When You Look at It". Did Dems underreach? Will Gops overreach? Well, that is what they do. Today is for replays and…

    Nov 7, 2025, 2:59 pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman brings us the end of a fairly cheerful week. Don't worry, they'll make the weekend suck. Sean Dunn flung a hoagie, and Sean done got off misdemeanor and felony charges, too. Remember that when troops come to your neighborhood... lunch is on…

    Nov 6, 2025, 3:28 pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman returns today, because there wasn't enough yesterday! Greg Dworkin returned also, but discovered that there wasn't enough today either, so he stuck around for most of the show! There is so much delicious data to share, most of which pollsters…

    Nov 5, 2025, 3:12 pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman, Greg Dworkin, and Dems are back, baby. Now, if you are tuning in to KITM today, you are probably wanting to know when, what, where, how, and why.  When? Yesterday, and over the last 9 months or so, voters have determined that they need to fix…
  • Kagro in the Morning - November 4, 2025

    Nov 4, 2025, 3:15 pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman brings us a Throwback Tuesday KITM in which we explore the things that we did not throw back hard enough. There was a time when bigotry, dishonesty, inhumanity, and megalomaniacal cruelty had a craft to it. There was a sense of pride and effort…
  • Kagro in the Morning - November 3, 2025

    Nov 3, 2025, 3:28 pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman, drinking his throat tea by the quart, doesn't hold back on today's KITM:  Greg Dworkin prepares us today for his Wednesday post-vote analysis. Virginia is for lovers, not haters, yet Gops kinda love to hate. Antisemitic hate is loved by the…
  • Kagro in the Morning - October 31, 2025

    Oct 31, 2025, 3:33 pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman wishes everyone a faboolous Halloween and reminds us to never ghost the boollot box! Ah roooooo! Trump's architects of chaos are moving into some really gated communities, as 20,000 troops are being sent out to states that might require…
  • Kagro in the Morning - October 30, 2025

    Oct 30, 2025, 4:37 pm By David Waldman
    Against his better judgement, David Waldman returns today. He lived, so he'll probably return tomorrow. Greg Dworkin fished a couple more polls out of the fetid recesses of ex-Twitter. Zohran is Mamdaniminating the competition, while Andrew Cuomo is barely…
  • Kagro in the Morning - October 29, 2025

    Oct 29, 2025, 3:40 pm By David Waldman
    A truck full of deadly virus-infected "aggressive" lab monkeys were released in a crash in Mississippi. It's about time, right? In fact, doesn't it feel a little late in this disaster of a timeline for that kind of event? Anymore, a thing like that feels like…
  • Kagro in the Morning - October 28, 2025

    Oct 28, 2025, 3:40 pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman returns to explain more. Sadly, the "Kavanaugh stop" won't even slow down Brett Kavanaugh. It's just another move to self-obsolescence made by the Trump Supreme Court, autographed by Brett. If you don't look right, sound right, aren't in the…
  • Kagro in the Morning - October 27, 2025

    Oct 27, 2025, 4:27 pm By David Waldman

    Oct 24, 2025, 3:15 pm By David Waldman
    A catch-all Friday! Tops on the list for the day: the continued destruction at the White House. HuffPost documents the donors who thought they were signing up for ballroom construction, only to find out Trump was saddling them with East Wing demolition,…
  • Kagro in the Morning - October 23, 2025

    Oct 23, 2025, 3:03 pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman talks about the things you wanted to hear about on today's KITM! Greg Dworkin found some polls floating in the sewage over at ex-Twitter. They indicate that Dems are way up. Now, people still hate Democrats, but they despise Republicans, which…

    David Waldman is back to sort out the weekend chaos. Belated RIP to Ace Frehley, yet Greg Dworkin is back in his New York groove today, presenting links from Ex-Twitter, which, alas, is still with us. Not long for this New York mayoral race world is Andrew…

    Oct 17, 2025, 2:22 pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman drops us off in time for our weekend fun, but not without some parting words of wisdom. We're so sorry, Uncle Albert, but Admiral Alvin Holsey has notified the US Southern Command that he will be departing only a year into his 3-year mission…
  • Kagro in the Morning - October 16, 2025

    Oct 16, 2025, 3:20 pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman delivers another two hours of merriment and erudition. Unfortunately, Greg Dworkin's construction project is in its final stages, so his time was necessarily restricted. Vile, deplorable, Nazi-loving young Gops are… exactly that, as anyone…
  • Kagro in the Morning - October 15, 2025

    Oct 15, 2025, 4:31 pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman survived to Wednesday! He can breathe again! Greg Dworkin has been adding the finishing touches on his home renovation yet still had the time to tow in a raft o' stories for us today. With government shut down, Democrats have even more time to…
  • Kagro in the Morning - October 14, 2025

    2:51pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman is back and flying solo again! He's the Charles Lindbergh of podcasters, but without the antisemitism! Remember when Joe Biden brokered peace and secured the release of hostages in Gaza? Well, Donald K. Trump just did some too. Only, Trump got…
  • Kagro in the Morning - October 13, 2025

    Mon 3:47pm By David Waldman
    Donald Trump shipped 50% of USRDA of crazy overseas this weekend, with a trip to Israel and Egypt to collect some unusual MAGA hats, and to try to get into heaven. The good news is, the hostage/prisoner swap has taken place and the guns are (at least…

    Oct 10, 2025, 3:14 pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman places our basinet at the Gateway to Chaos, rings the bell and slips away, but first sings us one more two-hour lullaby: If only María Corina Machado went fishing more often, Donald K. Trump would be painting his TRUMP Nobel Peace Prize gold…
  • Kagro in the Morning - October 9, 2025

    Oct 9, 2025, 3:48 pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman brings us one day closer to… whatever that is up ahead. Greg Dworkin is still renovating yet still has time to drop by for a chat. Donald K. Trump has a new can of gold Rust-Oleum waiting for his Nobel Prize this Friday, but first he must…

  • Kagro in the Morning - October 7, 2025

    Oct 7, 2025, 2:14 pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman explains the inexplicable for another couple of hours. Donald K. Trump might have to invoke the Insurrection Act to do whatever he wants. That's ok by him, it's just that he hates doing things. Even "invoking" is getting tough at his age. The…
  • Kagro in the Morning - October 6, 2025

    Oct 6, 2025, 3:14 pm By David Waldman
    David Waldman and Greg Dworkin have resurfaced with yet more anti-chaotic rhetoric on today's KITM. A million Trump obituaries have been written, but like the Rapture, no one ever seems to get the date right. Donald is failing and unpopular, almost more than…
  • Kagro in the Morning - October 3, 2025

    Oct 3, 2025, 2:56 pm By David Waldman
    With the atoning done, it's time to set about stockpiling sins for next year. So, it's time to get mad all over again! As usual, the Trump "administration" makes it easy. But first, from outside of his jurisdiction comes the Yom Kippur news we all feared: a…
