  • I only want to hear the news. Ben constantly adding his weird impressions and constantly repeating the same "joke" is so annoying. Can you just talk normal and report the facts?

  • Russia Russia’s Trump conspiracy.

    Ben, Donald been conspiring with Putin for decades, money and business combined. Is it inconceivable that this military decade is worthy of a counterintelligence investigation?

  • Sing like a rock star Ben!

    I love the partnerships you have with Wolfers, Parness, Phang, and Macfarland, Ellison, and others (I’m sorry if I misspelled names). Great content from all!

  • All hell doesn’t break loose every day

    I have been a devoted listener for years, but I am unfollowing you. Your updates are unnecessarily hyperbolic and repetitive. I appreciate the work you have done, but the titles of your episodes, the panic-stricken, circular reporting turns me off and onto calmer, more straightforward independent reporting.

  • Justin Wolfers & Ben’s weird voices need to go

    I don’t like Justin Wolfer’s. He goes out of his way to sane wash Trump’s economic propaganda. He seems to want to ‘cover up’ the damage Trump is doing to our economy. I don’t understand why

    Ben’s weird voices (mimicking) have got to go. He has valuable information but I have trouble listening to his ridiculous dramatizations

Dan Freeman discusses DNC lawsuit against Trump
Q: What happens next in the legal process?
We will file for emergency relief and push to have a judge review the case quickly, aiming to halt the ads and prevent further misuse of public funds while the court considers the claims.
Dan Freeman discusses DNC lawsuit against Trump
Q: So Dan, talk to us about this lawsuit, how important it is, and why was it filed today, and how timely it is.
The lawsuit is important because we cannot let the government use taxpayer money to boost a political campaign; when an ad is placed on national TV again, we move quickly to file and seek emergency relief to stop the spending and set a legal precedent that this cannot happen again.
