The reality is that it’s Trump and his GOP lackeys who are the real terrorists; spreading their election lies, allowing Covid to rage out of control while allowing the extremists in their party to metastasize. The fact is more death and chaos has occurred on their watch in the past year than all the US targeted terror attacks frankly, ever.

Omg it was excruciating listening to Nathan Thrall’s shrill voice. I don’t know how you kept your cool. I liked the angle of having an author to interview but Thrall should stick to writing not shrieking.

Look forward to listening to you and your interviewees Michael. Your pain comes across clearly and what has happened to you is repugnant. In any other civilised society Trump would have been arrested long AGO, wealthy or not. What the hell is wrong with the US? I've listened to your podcasts from the beginning and your despair, anxiety and rage is clearly affecting you. Understandable - I too gave up criminal law due to a nasty defendantnt who threatened my family leaving me leaping when even a car door slammed. Please make sure you have good people to talk to around you to maintain your strength. You are no good to those who love you as a broken man and they are more important than Trump. Pls identify the point when you will step away for sanity's sake.. He got you once.... With very best wishes. Yvonne 🇦🇺
