Ben says Hi
Very informative; I look for updates on court matters every day. Like the technical details too, happy to learn. Thank you for all of it. Keep it coming!
I’ve followed Harry for many years and am so grateful you have this show, coming directly to the public. You’re making us much more knowledgeable on topics that affect all of us at home.
Please always include Stephanie Ruhle in the periodic economics roundtable. She has a way of cutting through the maelstrom of Trump economic mismanagement and corruption to focus on the most important elements.
This was one of the best shows. I always look forward to Talking Feds.. Harry’s positive yet serious manner is just the right mix. Such a treat when Jennifer Rubin and Norm Eisen are guests. Great podcast!
