🚨OVERTIME 🚨
Today’s OVERTIME is gonna be shorter than usual…
Why? I’ve been watching Regent University’s conference on “election integrity” (their dean is former MN Rep. Michele Bachmann) for close to seven hours.
Featured speakers include:
Eric Metaxas (Childrens’ book author)
Ben Carson (Medical Doctor and former Secretary of HUD.)
John Fund (WSJ)
Hans von Spakovsky (The Heritage Foundation)
Jay Ashcroft (Missouri Secretary of State)
Jim and Joe Hoft (far right conspiratorial website Gateway Pundit.)
Peter Navarro (conspiratorial leftist economist who worked for Donald Trump on his disastrous trade war.)
Graphic design is his passion!
Kris Kobach (former KS Secretary of State who spearheaded Trump’s failed 2016 voter integrity effort.)
Mark Steyn (Canadian commentator who loves cats.)
It was a total shit show to promote The Navarro Report:
Stay tuned! I hope to have a full report tomorrow on this crazy.
Star Spangled Gamblers… I went on my buddy Alex Keeney’s podcast last night to talk about the filibuster. It was a ton of fun.
