No objective podcast about the "fake drones"? But let's just worry about DJT. Sorry, forgot he is the biggest threat

Think it used to be decent…I followed for a reason. However, recently has turned to nothing but overtly left wing political junk.
Apple Podcasts1JennyGoestoCampUnited States3 months ago - Bests hosts, every episode is top notch
Love Jeff and now Michael Isikoff! they know their stuff and learn something from every episode. Best of all, both have an amusing and appropriate sense of humor.
Apple Podcasts5JaneJenssUnited States4 months ago - Spy talk for Dems and not for all!
This guy is a tool of the Dems. Can’t possibly be apolitical and stick to espionage. Has guys like Weiner on here bashing Trumps national security appointees but neither of these geniuses had an issue with the morons that have been in Joe Bidens cabinet for 4 years. No national security concerns about the wide open border with millions of unknowns walking right in. These people live in left field.
