8/29/23 - A Stratospheric Rise To The Single Digits

In Which We Discuss:

1. Joe the Plumber, the 2008 political symbol celebrated for his misunderstanding of tax laws, is dead at 49. He leaves behind a fully broken political system.

2. The Trump trial calendar is getting competitive!

3. Nikki Haley makes a stratospheric rise to fifth place and a higher single digit number in GOP post-debate polls.

4. It’s finally time to find out which 10 (and only 10 drugs) won’t send you into bankruptcy! Maybe!

5. Air travel is dangerous enough without being in Putin’s crosshairs.
