On the latest LGM Podcast Cheryl, Dan, and myself talk through the “peace” deal that the Trump administration attempted to foist upon Europe, Ukraine, and possibly Russia last week. We work through what we now know of the several-day process of revealing the plan, discuss its prospects, and then move to a point-by-point discussion of its elements. Time constraints prevented us from getting all the way through, which is probably for the best because the plan has now been reduced to nineteen points. Our assessment? This is less a plan than a mess of contradictory impulses, and it will be a struggle to develop anything useful out of it.

Some links:

• The plan, annotated
• The plan, annotated again.
• Thoughts on the origins of the plan.
• Rubio tries to make the plan make sense.
• Ukraine’s reaction.

The post LGM Podcast: Twenty-Eight Points appeared first on Lawyers, Guns & Money.

On the latest LGM Podcast Scott, Erik, and I jabbered about this most unusual NFL season. We recorded on Wednesday evening and nothing about the result of last night’s Buffalo-Houston game exactly transformed our conclusions, rather reinforcing the enigma that is the Josh Allen Bills. We also decided to just go ahead and publish the whole thing rather than break it into two parts, so save this one for a really long drive/run/walk/train ride/colonoscopy.

On the latest LGM podcast Scott and I spoke with friend-of-the-blog and current candidate for the Democratic nomination in Kentucky’s sixth district Erin Petrey, who many of you will remember from previous posts. We talked about Erin’s reasoning for joining the race, some of the positions that she has staked out on the campaign trail, and finally some snippets from the day-to-day life of a Congressional candidate.

Also, the best question is the Nazi tattoo question.
