GOOD EVENING: The show begins in Las Vegas at the Sphere, where a band called Phish performed spectacularly, as confirmed by colleague Jeff Bliss. We then move to the UN Security Council, where Russia vetoed a ban on nukes in orbit. Next, we visit Orlando, Charlotte, Kansas City, and Tucson, where colleague Gene Marks was invited to speak to small business associations, learning that costs are high and skilled labor is rare. We then head to Northwestern University, USC, and Columbia to witness antisemitism practiced by students and faculty, and more. Moving on to Blue Origin for a test of New Glenn in September, and then to the aging Hubble Space Telescope. We journey back in time to Ireland in 1847 and NYC in 1850, before returning to present-day Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and Milan, Italy. Finally, we discuss the Supreme Court's stance on presidential immunity. 1850 Harrisburg PA

Why, John, did you not push back on Harry's erroneous reporting about the percentage illegal migrants carrying Covid?! A cursory search will give you those numbers. 18% according to NBC a week ago. Couple that with the government not testing and you can bet your CBS contract that the numbers are significantly higher. Who are you and what have you done with John? Were you simply placating Harry? Illegal immigration is changing the makeup of the country and all you two can utter are fallacies and rumors of two excellent governors. Appalling. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/immigration/18-percent-migrant-families-leaving-border-patrol-custody-tested-positive-n1276244

The John Batchelor show is very informative, John has top notch guests. I also like his book discussions, but the subject matter should be a bit wider.
