Sup First With Cyrus Cooper

michael cohen is making more waves by saying that trump knew about a trump tower meeting with russians before it happened, will that entail any consequences? also, the government says it has met the deadline to reunite migrant families they separated, but 700 children are still in government custody, will that entail any consequences? also north korea gave us some remains back

almost too much tariff talk for one day as president trump strikes up a deal with european commissioner jean claude juncker - we get the response to the deal from both the heartland and the fartland (europe) - also the government is of course missing the deadline to reunite migrant families, cool stuff

a scatter shot news day of michael cohen releasing a taped conversation of himself and president trump discussing a payout for hush money, the secretary of state is going to capital hill today to discuss what trump discussed in his private one on ones with foreign leaders, and what exactly is going on with this big farm subsidy that trump is gonna give farmers - pretty even news

hot news coming through piping steaming hot - trump wants to strip away security clearances from former high level administration staffers that talk trash about him, north korea might be sticking to their word on taking some denuclearization steps but they haven't let any one check it out for themselves, and the department of the interior squashed any good information about national landmarks and kept them out of their recommendations, and then accidentally told the press that's exactly what they did, it's a hot news day for sure

trump was sick of people talking about his press conference with putin and how much he loves putin and everything so he went ahead and invited putin to the white house, how is this attitude playing with some officials in the administration? also we talk about comic con, as a diversion in the news. and nothing else i swear

republican lawmakers continue to wring their hands about what to do to prevent russian meddling in the upcoming midterms, the veterans administration continues its march towards privatization, and a new israeli law passed to once again declare itself a jewish state is drawing ire from critics - mondo news day

dang trump went and had a press conference with vladimir putin and it turns out that trump actually likes this joker??? like he wants to be nice in front of him all the time????? so people in the us were mad about that and people in russia don't care so much.  also, there are big protests spreading across nicaragua in protest of daniel ortega's regime there.  so cool news y'all

i'm back from all the messiness and the news is still top notch messy itself - putin and trump are meeting in finland and trump's plan is just to chill or something? people are worried he's not gonna focus so that's pretty likely. also there are protests and unrest spreading across southern iraq right now, sounds interesting. big news mood

the internal split in the democratic party.  did i talk about it ? yes, in a particularly roundabout way i think i did, i can't remember, anyway, also we talk about some tariff talk with whiskey and some blockade talk with iran as they reenter negotiations to save the nuclear deal, feels good to do it in the day again.

it's a sup first after dark to all you night birds out there, we're talking about the democratic senators in red states that might vote to confirm the justice that fills anthony kennedy's vacancy, we talk about north korea making some more construction happen, and the good news about finding the lost boys in a thai cave that were rescued after 9 days - got this sup first in just under the wire baby

a guy went and shot and killed five people at the newspaper they worked at yesterday, trump is working on his supreme court nominee and antiabortion activists are drooling at the chance to overturn roe v wade, and the eu has become a little more hardline on migration issues, what a cool cool time to be around right?

that old pinhead anthony kennedy is retiring from the supreme court which means trump gets to nominate another lifetime justice, trump is announcing the location of his summit with vladimir putin today like it's a miss universe pageant, and defense secretary mad dog jim mattis went to south korea to give a little reassurance, it's a heck of a news

guys sorry if this episode sucks ass i woke up extra early to try and make sure i had time to do everything i have to do today so if it sucks i'm sorry.  we talk a touch about the travel ban, about trump having to reunite families within 30 days, the primaries from last night, the confirmation of a new leader at the VA, and a check in with syria.  i don't think this one is good but maybe i'm wrong, at least its short

we have a big long tantric tariff talk with an explanation of harley davidson shifting some production to europe to avoid trump's tariffs and potential restrictions on chinese investment in us high tech companies.  also we have some primaries happening out there in the world! like mitt romney's primary in his run for senate in utah.  tight ole news

i sweat a bunch during this episode.  trump wants to send migrants back at the border with no judges and no hearing, bumping up against a human's right to due process. justice department officials are complaining they have to do these ticky tack prosecutions instead of the big ones they want to do. and we talk turkey about the reelection of turkish president erdogan.  sweet news if you ask me

well, the house didn't pass anything on immigration, melania trump wore a weird jacket to meet migrant children at a detention center, there's probably no way the administration is gonna be able to reunite these families because of their purposeful bureaucratic breakdowns, and erdogan is up for reelection in turkey on sunday.  cool news

trump made an executive order that said instead of separating families we'll put em all in one big jail together.  pretty good, so we see what happens now with all that noise, and also we talk about how mean the veterans affairs can be to whistleblowers in their organization

trump continues to assert that only congress can stop family separation, even though that's false, but are they doing anything anyway? and is there even a plan to reunite these children with their families? also the king of tariff talk wilbur ross has to talk to the senate finance committee about his favorite subject - quite the gazump day

what a day, trump and his administration continue to use the act of traumatizing children as political leverage, we have another hard hard edition of tariff talk as trump lays 200 billion dollars in tariffs down, and gaming disease is a real disease now people, thanks to the world health organization - brutal news

today we talk about the administration's new tent encampments for migrant children, the response on capitol hill, and how angela merkel might lose her parliament majority and thus her job, it's just another day of news here in the laundry room
