Hi. "Some More News" head writer Dave Bell is IN THE STUDIO today with Katy and Cody to talk about Donald Trump (he used to be the president) being indicted for a whole bunch of crimes. They discuss Trump's excuses for why taking sensitive documents and then lying about it isn't a big deal, how the GOP presidential candidates are playing it, and, of course, DS9.

Note: We had a few audio issues as this was our first in-studio episode in several years. You'll hear some voice echoes at times in this episode, but we've tried to make the conversation as seamless as possible. Thanks for understanding!

Man, the pandemic really screwed up our social skills. I wonder how many people have quality working relationships with people with whom they’ve never shared air.

At about 56min- good points touched on that there's not been any plans (credible or reliable) presented by any candidates for what feels like forever. And how refreshing something like that would be tho, a bit like a pipe dream. Planning/a goal, other than all the gutting theyve accomplished? Curious bout Cornell West * was briefly mentioned. Xoxo

Jacques Chirac was mayor of Paris, Prime Minister & later two term President of France (1995-2007). Sadly, he died before ever seeing a day in jail. No matter how bad & proven in the courts the crimes he did, the courts would not put him in jail. The way I see if, you could remake the 2006 "Chirac en prison" song to change the lyrics to Trump.

Honestly, the open feels like a bit; not convinced that they are in the same room

Another term and Trump will try to sell The White House since it would be his again 😂

How's the poison room doing?

A major problem of Trump keeping NDI insecurely is it puts US and allied intelligence assets lives at risk. Knowing high level secrets can reveal methods on how the information was gathered, which can expose human assets to harm and likely death. Anyone else that did what he did would have been immediately arrested and detained in jail until trial. Trump is getting special privileges like no other defendent would get. What gets little discussion is not all documents are accounted for. The attack plans he exposed to others is unaccounted for. During the FBI search, folders were found, but documents were missing. Trump had boxes in a room with a photocopy machine. Being the mass grifter Trump is, it would not surprise me he also consider making money off the docs. He stated in a Fox interview that Nixon got millions from the govt when Nixon negotiated in the returning documents after he left office. That incident is why Congress passed laws to prevent that situation again.

Another great episode of the McLaughlin Group from WBBH in Boston. its interesting that Cody played the part of both Eleanor Clift AND Pat Buchanan. Seriously, tho, enjoyable.

If you're going to start on star trek, start with Babylon 5.
