"Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said Sunday in his first public statement since he was hospitalized nearly a month ago that he was “briefly unconscious” after he suffered a fall.
In the statement, accompanied by a photo of McConnell smiling in a hospital chair alongside his wife, Elaine Chao, he said doctors have not yet cleared him to return to the Senate floor to vote.
“But rest assured that, in the meantime, I’m not taking a break from the Senate business that matters to you,” McConnell said. “I’ve also been keeping in touch with my Senate colleagues on the appropriations process, midterm politics, and everything in between.”
McConnell, 84, said he has “submitted to every test” doctors can think of to figure out what prompted the fall and has moved from the hospital to a rehabilitation center where, he said, he will “keep regaining my strength.”"
Michael Shure, Gary Dietrich, and Sarah Kendzior will join to discuss the top stories.

Polls show California’s gubernatorial race is far from settled. Democrats are still showing scattered support for multiple candidates. The most recent survey, conducted by the Democratic Party, puts Xavier Becerra, the former Democratic state attorney general and health and human services secretary, and Republican Steve Hilton, the British-born former Fox News commentator, neck and neck with 18% of likely voter support. Republican Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco has 15% support from likely voters and billionaire Democrat Tom Steyer, 12%. We welcome former San Francisco Chronicle Opinion Editor John Diaz to look at how the race is shaking out.

So why haven’t they? We welcome Dr. Steven Hassan. He is a world-renowned cult expert and the author of The Cult of Trump.
Plus, Tech Tuesday brings Jefferson Graham to the show for gadgets and good times.

Here’s the post: 
     “WHEN I WIN, those people that CHEATED will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law, which will include long term prison sentences so that this Depravity of Justice does not happen again.

Those involved in unscrupulous behavior will be sought out, caught, and prosecuted at levels, unfortunately, never seen before in our Country.”

Here’s the post: 
     “WHEN I WIN, those people that CHEATED will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law, which will include long term prison sentences so that this Depravity of Justice does not happen again. Please beware that this legal exposure extends to Lawyers, Political Operatives, Donors, Illegal Voters, & Corrupt Election Officials. Those involved in unscrupulous behavior will be sought out, caught, and prosecuted at levels, unfortunately, never seen before in our Country.”
It’s unclear if he is trying to somehow intimidate Vice President Harris before the debate or if he’s simply laying the groundwork for more unfounded cheating allegations. 
We’ll run it by CBS television and iHeart Radio Political Analyst Gary Dietrich to get his take.
Gather ‘round the campfire. Courtney has another chilling story to share on True Crime Corner.

Something of a press conference (full of softball questions and minus any followup questions) at Mar-a-Lago turned into a bizarre rambling mess yesterday. Trump lashed out against VP Kamala Harris for drawing larger crowds at her rallies. He claimed the reason that Harris is doing well in polling is because “she’s a woman who represents a certain group of people.” Trump’s former White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci called the press conference evidence that Donald Trump is frightened. 
We’ll run it past journalist and political analyst Michael Shure to get his take on the state of the race to the White House.

Trump was also barred from leading any New York company for three years. His sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump were also fined $4 million apiece and barred for two years.
"Defendants have faced what have proven to be insurmountable difficulties in obtaining an appeal bond for the full $464 million," according to an affirmation by Trump Organization general counsel Alan Garten.
While his lawyer said Trump is "financially stable" and maintains "substantial assets," the magnitude of the judgment would require him to use his real estate as collateral for the bond. So far, according to Garten's affirmation, no surety bond provider approached by Trump is willing to accept real estate as collateral, including Chubb, the insurance giant underwriting Trump's $91.6 million bond to cover the $83 million judgment in the E. Jean Carroll defamation case, plus interest.
Surprise, Surprise! Putin Wins Another Russian “Election” 
That Vladimir Putin won his “election” is not a shocker. Exit polls show he came away with 88% of the vote. That it wasn’t 100% is the surprise. 
The “win” gives Putin six more years in power at a time when his invasion of Ukraine has the world fearing what he’ll do next. 
Trump gave a whopper of a campaign speech over the weekend. He warned of “bloodshed” if he doesn’t win in November.  He also said the January 6th Committee should be jailed and that some undocumented immigrants aren’t people. It seems he’s doubling down on the hate and revenge.
True Crime Corner brings Courtney to the show with a story she’s been researching for weeks. Wait until you hear about the Octopus Murders!
Comedian and actor Alonzo Bodden will stop by. We’ll ask him about winning Last Comic Standing and hosting America’s Worst Driver. He may also talk about his experience donating a kidney to his brother.

It seems Mitch McConnell supports judge shopping. The Judicial Conference of the United States has a new rule that if a case seeks a national injunction to reverse or block a federal government policy, the judge has to be randomly assigned within the district court where the case was filed. McConnell calls the rule an unforced error by the Judicial Conference that will do Washington Democrats’ bidding. He want's them to reconsider.
Trump's judge slaps him down on dropping espionage charges. US District Court Judge Aileen Cannon was asked by Trump's lawyers to toss out the classified documents case against him. In one motion, they argued the charges against him were too vague.  She disagreed.  She has yet to rule on a second motion that the Presidential Records Act requires the case to be dismissed.  
We'll talk to journalist and political analyst Michael Shure about all of this and more.

This comes just days after Texas Governor Greg Abbott said the only reason they don’t shoot migrants is because the Biden Administration would press charges.
Republican governors in 15 states are saying no to federal food money for 8 million children. They don’t want to increase the welfare state, but these states have some of the highest rates of children living in poverty.

Bernie Sanders is sounding the alarm. He says Trump feels humiliated, is out for revenge and could very well destroy democracy.

This...The Department of Homeland Security confirmed the deaths of three migrants, a woman and two children, and said Border Patrol agents were prevented from assisting them at the border by Texas state officials. This comes just days after Texas Governor Greg Abbott said the only reason they don’t shoot migrants is because the Biden Administration would press charges.
Republican governors in 15 states are saying no to federal food money for 8 million children. They don’t want to increase the welfare state, but these states have some of the highest rates of children living in poverty.

Bernie Sanders is sounding the alarm. He says Trump feels humiliated, is out for revenge and could very well destroy democracy.
We’ll kick off the show with our favorite Britisher Anthony Davis, talking about these topics and more.
Courtney is back with a fascinating True Crime Corner story.
Author Dustin Dunbar will stop by to talk about his book, “YOU’RE DOING GREAT! (And Other Lies Alcohol Told Me).” Dunbar tells the story of breaking free from the myths he says alcohol compelled him to believe.
Karen Dawn with Dawn Watch will share her weekly animal story with us.

She claimed Trump knows he’s telling lies when he floats conspiracy theories, “but does it anyway because he also knows his base will believe anything he says. And that he used to tell her that when she was working for him.” She also said it’s easier for Trump voters to believe conspiracy theories than come to terms with who Trump really is.

There’s no denying that former President Trump has the uncanny ability to turn bad press into a good thing for himself. Now a judge in Georgia is denying Trump’s request to stop the investigation into election interference and in doing so he cited a Rumpelstiltskin like political magic. Oh… and the GOP’s supposed star witness that could allegedly connect President Biden to some type of wrongdoing did not connect President Biden to any type of wrongdoing. The alleged proof went poof!

Some Republicans believe that Trump and DeSantis would be a formidable team. They argue that Trump's charisma and DeSantis's popularity would be a winning combination. They also believe that the two men are ideologically aligned and would be able to work together effectively.
As to SCOTUS:
A nearly $2 million sale of property co-owned by Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch to a prominent law firm executive in 2017 is raising new questions about the lax ethics reporting requirements for Supreme Court justices.
Property records from Grand County, Colorado, show that the Walden Group LLC – a limited-liability company in which Gorsuch was a partner – sold a 40-acre property on the Colorado River to Brian Duffy, chief executive officer of the prominent law firm Greenberg Traurig.
One of the most serious ongoing accusations is that Justice Gorsuch has used his position on the court to benefit his wife as well, who is a lobbyist. According to reports, Justice Gorsuch has allowed his wife to use his office to meet with government officials and to lobby for her clients. This is a clear conflict of interest, and it raises serious questions about Justice Gorsuch's ability to remain impartial on the court.
Other justices have also been accused of taking material benefits. Justice Clarence Thomas has been accused of accepting lavish gifts from a wealthy donor. Justice Samuel Alito has been accused of using his position on the court to benefit his son, who is a lawyer.
