  • Laughing his own media empire

    I always enjoy watching and listening to your show.consider creating your own news network that can run 24 hours maybe smaller scale than CNN. Oprah created her Own channel and I can see Anderson doing the same yes it is very hard work to jumpstart and launch a network but worth it in the end he has a gift and skills to report the news in such a special way he can be his own cnn he will do great launching his own media empire

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Officials: Hate Speech Written on One of the Weapons in San Diego Mosque Shooting
Q: What have investigators learned about the two gunmen and their possible motivations?
Authorities suggest the case involves hate-motivated violence, with evidence pointing to a hate-filled context and possible connections to alt-right ideologies, though specifics about the attackers' full backgrounds were still developing.
Keeping Them Honest: The Violent Truth
Q: Is there a legal standing for the plaintiffs to sue over this fund?
Legal expert Toobin argues that standing is limited in this context, and the plaintiffs may not meet the injury-in-fact requirement to sue over payments due to the discretionary nature of the fund.
Keeping Them Honest: The Violent Truth
Q: What is your reaction to the possibility of payouts to those who harmed officers?
There is deep concern that compensating violators could undermine accountability and incentivize violence, making the fund a dangerous political instrument rather than a mechanism for justice.
Trump: Xi Offered to "Help" with Iran
Q: Edward, what stood out to you today?
Trump's framing of Xi as pressuring Iran stood out, but the experts cautioned that we should scrutinize whether such statements reflect private diplomacy or public posturing, given the lack of public Chinese commitments and the broader strategic context.
Arrest Warrant Issued for Former FBI Director James Comey
Q: Senator Mark Kelly, what is your reaction to the second indictment against James Comey?
Senator Kelly expresses concern about the message of using indictments as a political tool, emphasizes the need to protect democratic processes, but also acknowledges the seriousness of the DOJ actions and the importance of due process.
