On today's KITM, David Waldman says, he was drinking at a bar in Deadwood, when in walks Rambo, who told him he was Chef Rambo… and David has been at this for less than a week.

Kids today! Is it the rock and roll? No, it's the AI! AI is taking over their education, but also their thinking, undermining their persistence, curiosity and personal effort, encouraging in their place growing passivity and indifference… Or maybe not.

Rape! There's an online rape academy which is not a Trump LLC. Eric Swalwell and Tony Gonzales have not been accused of rape but are ducking out before something like that happens.

Murder! John Edward's body man, Justin Fairfax was accused of sexual assault, but unfortunately killed himself and sadly, also his wife.

War! Children… It's just a shot away.

Donald K. Trump didn't turn into a pathological sadistic narcissist overnight. It took years of work, focus and the power of positive thinking to make him whatever he is today.

Today, David Waldman is on the road again, going places that he's never been, seeing things that he may never see again… And he can't wait to try to record on the road again!

Donald K. Trump is a vengeful god… Or at least he plays one on TV, which as far as the Trump administration is concerned, is exactly the same thing. Donald is of the opinion that the Pope's God is a low-IQ loser, which as far as MAGA is concerned, all opinions are equal and just like facts, and everyone's allowed to have one, not just some "Vicar of Christ" elite.

Every generation gets the Axis of Evil they deserve. This time, Dems come out against the Rapture, at least under Trump's timeline.

Trump is a forgiving god. He supplied Byron Noem's beard with a beard in her time of need. Now his DOJ has moved to erase the convictions of Proud Boys and Oath Keepers who led the Jan. 6 attack, some of whom will require more forgiveness than others.

We've hidden David Waldman somewhere in the United States. Follow the clues, find Kagro, and he will personally autograph the body part of his choice!

Donald K. Trump might not be telling us the truth… about his height. When he stands next to people who are established to be his height, weight, etc., he seems to have embellished a bit… Of course, he could just be a moron. Trump heard that Riley Gaines might have dissed him but didn't recognize Riley as the participation trophy star of Mitch McConnell wannabe Andy Barr's campaign commercials. Gaines then had to apologize to Trump.

This lying moron is the most powerful and weakest person on Earth and is destroying everything, everywhere, all at once.

If Hungary can do it, we can too. In fact, Hungary is doing it for us too.

Day two of On the Road with David Waldman™ and Daily Kos is closed for renovations! If it's not one thing, it's the other.

The Donald K. Trump Memorial Middle East Catastrophe is going as well as expected, with the implementation of a Trillion dollar Marshall plan for Iran, Israel booted out, and support for Iran's new nuclear program. We in turn will receive a blockade of our blockade and a shattered economy.Now, that's some deal-arting right there. Give negotiations another week and they'll have Trump sharing pictures of himself as Muhammad...

Have you noticed that Trump is crazy? More and more people are beginning to notice, although only a few are taking action.

Where in the world is David Waldman? ™ David has left "on vacation" for the next few weeks... similarly to Eric Swalwell, but for quite dissimilar reasons. In fact, Mr. Waldman talked to me in a small Ohio diner only yesterday and just might be heading to your town soon!

Only a few days ago, Donald JFC Trump announced a beautiful joint venture, shaking down tankers with Iran on the Strait of Hormuz. The following day, Donald discovered that those Iranian bastards were holding on to his cut! Two days later, Trump decided to set up his toll booth a hundred yards ahead of Iran's, then flay and impale those trying to hop his turnstiles. (This is all about Uranium, by the way.)

Who's to blame? JD Vance is set to be Trump's Biden of the midterms. Vance's failure in Iran folded right into his failure in Hungary. "Obliterated Iran" and "Unoustable Orbán" were pretty slow pitches to whiff, too.

The Trump administration has been trying to explain to our allies that the greatest threat to the world are the people most opposed to the Trump administration, and if those countries don't believe that, then they are also the greatest threat to the world. Trinidad's prime minister is using that same energy to aim US guns at those who oppose her.

David Waldman delivers us to the weekend Gateway of Chaos™… but as far as KITM is concerned, that chaos might lead into Weeks of Chaos as David literally drives around the nation for a while. We will still have "shows" … but what that looks or sounds like is anybody's guess!

Melania Trump Streisanded herself and Jeffrey Epstein back into the news cycle by daring anyone to find any evidence that connected her to Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell other than the existing photographs, emails, witnesses, books, etc. Donald K. Trump has responded that he barely knew Melania, though possibly she brought him coffee a few times. Paolo Zampolli better stay away from windows for a while.

Donald is also shocked, SHOCKED, to find out that Iran might be monetizing their control over the Strait of Hormuz. Wait until he finds out that JD Vance orchestrated an inept war on Iran a little over a month ago! House Dems attempted to pass an Iran war powers resolution. but were gaveled and dropped out of history.

Kristi Noem is barely showing up for her new job now that they took away her F-jet, and her F-buddy.

Renowned Minnesota racist nutjob Nathan Hansen has no immigration law experience but has been appointed immigration judge as he is a renowned racist nutjob.

A US defense official overseeing AI reaped millions selling xAI stock after the Pentagon entered agreement with company. Where do they get all that money?

David Waldman and Greg Dworkin are back together for their last "normal" KITM before David hits the road. Don't fret, they plan on joining together for several abnormal shows over the next few weeks!

How's Donald K. Trump's war doing? Bad… awful. There is no ceasefire. It's not a TACO, it is a complete US strategic failure, a defeat of historic proportions. Hey guys, Trump could still pull out a win! Except, even Gops don't see that happening. Vance, Rubio, and Wiles are out bragging that they were against it all along. Didn't anyone Grok "Strait of Hormuz"? Cadets were stranded in the Persian Gulf, probably as a little D.O.W. hazing. There is an offramp, but Republicans aren't taking it.

Trump will use foreign steel for his ballroom. If US steel wanted it, they should have stepped up their bribe game. The Pentagon threatened the Pope after he criticized Trump. Maybe if Trump kissed some babies and told them how the 2020 elections were rigged, he could pull out of this slump.

How're Democrats doing? In Arizona, voters are seeing the light. In New Jersey, they love their Governor not Trump, boo, boo, boo! They're going to have a tough time holding the Texas House. And in Wisconsin… WTF? Seriously… WTF?

JD Vance certainly has "a type" … Now JD's stumping for Viktor Orbán, as Trump and/or Putin can't afford to lose a member of their authoritarian ratpack.

David Waldman notifies you Daily Kos immigrants out there better be ready to show the correct ID if you ever expect to get in.

Greg Dworkin tells us that the rot comes from the top, then backs it up with links to the world's clearinghouse for mis- and dis- information.

Two weeks. TACOs usually feel so good because we've just stopped hitting ourselves in the head with the hammer. This time, we've continued hitting ourselves in the head with a hammer after threatening to do much worse. Schrödinger's Deal promises nothing and everything, or everything and nothing, depending upon your perspective. The markets love that stuff. As for the rest of us, Donald K. Trump achieved his principal goal, war with Iran, and is on his way to his secondary goal of not having a war with Iran. (Pssst… the Vance '28 Campaign Headquarters would like you to know that the "not having a war with Iran" goal was all JD's idea.) At least the ceasefire has opened the Strait of Hormuz, bringing peace to the Middle East and around the world…

Russian soldiers shoot themselves for the disability checks to pay their superiors to not send them to the front.

Over here, the Blue Wave keeps rolling as Dems pull off their biggest shift yet. Republicans win MTG's old spot, duh, but not by a whole lot. Republicans just don't have the enthusiasms anymore. Libs pick up a seat in the Wisconsin Supreme Court. In Anchorage, the vote goes for the candidate not in support of castrating parents. Moms for Liberty keeps on earning losses.

Do not cross the ProPublica picket lines today.

We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when… But I know we'll meet again some sunny day! Tomorrow, David Waldman might be broadcasting under the cloud of a nuclear winter, but today we still have the Tuesday KITM to bring you.

Whether he tacos again or not, Donald K. Trump has lost his "fuckin'" mind. Trump has already brought hell to the Middle East, so what's a few million more degrees? Donald was going kill some soldiers to steal the oil because that's what "businessmen" do... He might still kill some soldiers to steal the uranium, because that is what Mark Levin would do. Any country might now consider shooting at the US out of self-defense… except Canada, unless Charles turns his back for a minute.

While he's out destroying civilizations, Trump hasn't forgotten about ours. His new voting executive order is lightweight, ambiguous, confusing, and confused, which totally tracks, and of course Trump never skimps on the unconstitutionality.

Kristi Noem almost let sunlight touch Stephen Miller before he could scramble back to his sarcophagus. Hubby Bryon's balloon boobies were busted as a result, although the real security risk was out in the open.

JD Vance will take over for the self-humiliation this week by rallying for Viktor Orbán on behalf of Trump and Putin.

Each day is an opportunity to be duped by AI. Yesterday it was MAGA Republicans, tomorrow it could be someone important.

Dyngus Day! David Waldman and Greg Dworkin float in with another Raft O' Stories™, swept on the Eastertide.

The Trump World War is now entering its third 2 weeks of total triumph. Bombing Iran to the stone age isn't mogging Iran quite enough, however, and Trump has mushroom cloud dreams. In fact, yesterday Donald renamed the Hormuz Strait the "Fuckin'" Strait and made an Easter day conversion to Islam in preparation for his final day of judgment.

Marjorie Taylor Greene knows from crazy, and she's seeing some crazy.

Strait traffic is picking up as more countries have been convinced to line up at the toll booths. This might slow but won't stop the biggest oil crisis in history from hitting us all.

Pete Hicseth is in the process of culling all officers determined not crusade-ready. Not everyone is suited to be a holy warrior, sometimes even white guys have to be eliminated.

The Justice Department says that Trump doesn't need to hand over his presidential records after he's finished destroying the world. Democrats are winning over the left and "double haters" to claim their future share of the debris.

U.S. Marshals waived training rules for Elon Musk's armed DOGE security. Mark Zuckerberg offered to censor Meta users to help DOGE out.

Kristi Noem's husband, Bryon Noem, has been reported to have lived a "secret double life" which involves the wearing his not so secret "double D's". Kristi, Bryon, and Corey have been reported to live a secret triple life that rhymes with "fuckin'".

David Waldman wishes everyone a good Friday.

Donald K. Trump fired Pam Bondi, surprising no one but Pam, who begged like a dog for mercy, in vain. Donald tacos only to stop his own tears. Was it Epstein? Not enough enemies locked up? Maybe Trump just couldn't take the smell of her nose anymore... he did have to switch seats when she sat too close. Bondi is no doubt relieved that she doesn't have to take orders from the Chip Roys of the world. By the way, Todd Blanche will be worse.

Bondi's is not the only regime being changed. Pete Hic-seth is taking advantage of all the downtime to eliminate any vestiges of leadership lingering in the armed forces. Pete's problem is that these guys can fire back. Kash Patel would be an obvious choice to stick in your Kalshi, but Tulsi Gabbard might be gaining on him.

Trump will cram in some more tariffs while he still can.

The House punts on Homeland Security funding, as they have tended to do.

Trump's other killing field, Iran, doesn't worry the stock market as much, because the kickbacks are still great at the moment. In two weeks however expect some big changes… like American casualties, war crimes and another regime change or two to shake things up.

Colorado appeals court ordered a redo of violent criminal Tina Peter's sentence but upheld her convictions.

It's time for Democrats to become arrayed in uniting states with model laws, such as the Uniform Commercial Code, for instance.
