At the end of the podcast, they talk about the awful, yet inadvertantly hilarious “Beyond the Valley of the Dolls”, written by a young Roger Ebert. Here is an older Ebert reading a column written about the movie by the great 5-day a week Chicago columnist, Mike Royko.
Agreed …. the caption associated with the video is the twitter posters take away from the video, not anything Carlson actually said.
My take away was Tucker was telling Powell this is a extremely monumental allegation so you better start showing the public you actually have the goods.
I miss that Chicago.
No, I’m actually nothing like Tucker. But I do watch him on a regular basis.
The point of posting this clip was that Sidney Powell, the President’s lawyer dodged an interview with Tucker Carlson, the guy with 5 million viewers and one of the President’s most reliable defenders — although certainly not a pushover and undoubtedly, he would have pushed her to present evidence to back up her claims. If she’s got “the red flags,” let’s see them. She declined Carlson’s request. Repeatedly. Draw your own conclusions from that.
Yes, that was exactly my point in posting this clip, and more importantly, the point made in this podcast with the Glen Glengarry Glen Ross leads example.
Blue Yeti, aren’t you tired of Trump talk on GLOP? I sure am. I’ve stopped listening to Jonah’s podcasts. He’s like a tired old broken record.
The repetition of the Nevers is endless.
We already see the red flags. They’re all around. I don’t know the specifics of the exchange between Powell and the Tucker show. Perhaps Powell did “get angry”; perhaps she didn’t. Who knows? Either way, we’ll all know one way or another very soon if they have what they say they have: either the detail they claim to have will be presented in court or it won’t. We’ll see.
Jonah mentioned my view on this in passing on the podcast. I was tempted to cut it, but I left it in for posterity.
The good news for all concerned (the guys, the audience, ME) is that for all intensive purposes, this will end on its own accord in January.
I for one, am looking forward to it.
Well I hope it will end. I pray we don’t hear Biden’s idiocy somehow blamed on Trump. He lives rent free in Jonah’s head.
Speak for yourself, Ed. WE do not see them “all around.” Read the people I posted excerpts from in my previous comment. Hinderaker, McCarthy, Ericsson, York — these are not CNN or MSNBC journalists. These are our guys and they are not buying what the President and his team are selling. You can ignore it — that’s up to you. But it’s not going to change it.
Hatred never dies Blue.
I haven’t actually listened to the Mean Girl podcast for some time … I just enjoy jumping on the comment board to heckle Regina, Karen, and Gretchen.

People who think this is all going away if Trump exits the stage are foolish. I don’t know how many times this needs to be said. This was never about Trump. This was about us. The hated. The “deplorables.” The forgotten man. The people who actually make this country work. The ones who are taxed to death while the elitists dine at posh restaurants, unmasked, on our dime.
It’s not going away no matter how much you may wish it to. It’s going to get more intense.
Unless and until the criminals are exposed and punished. But that happens . . . never.
The voting age population has increased from 229M(2010) to 255M(2019), an increase of 25M. So I can see that, provided the enthusiasm were consistent between the two, it would be possible.
There is no way that voter enthusiasm for Biden equals that of Obama.
There is one specific thing that should be easy to check (and prove) between Tucker and Sidney.
She claims that she sent a deposition to Tucker’s team.
Tucker claims they received not a single page.
Both cannot be true.
Unless – Tucker means “single page” literally, as depositions are multiple pages.
No, the election challenges are about Trump. Full stop. He’s the one contesting it. He’s the one tweeting that he won it in a landslide. His lawyers are the ones arguing that Hugo Chavez invented the process used to steal this election. This is entirely on him.
Look, if there is actual evidence of massive fraud, then show us. So far, they have not. And if there is no evidence presented, then this should go away.
From the Ricochet Code of Conduct:
It appears that there are some very important personages here on Ricochet who can violate the CoC and insult a good portion of the paying membership without consequence.
Perhaps not a terribly smart business move to insult a good portion, if not a majority, of Ricochet’s subscribers to introduce a podcast. Of course, if the strategy is to whittle away the number of paying members then far be it from me to get in the way of co-owners who want lose money.
When should we anticipate that a Lincoln Project podcast will appear on Ricochet?
You aren’t hearing what I’m saying. You think there’s going to be an end to all this tsuris once the election is resolved? That’s nonsense talk, because this isn’t about Trump. It never was. It isn’t really just about this fraudulent election. The fraudulent election is simply the breaking point. It’s about the relationship of the citizen to the government, and it’s about a political claass that operates above the law and without the consent of the governed. That trust was broken a long time ago. The only question now is whether the United States can last. To make this all about Trump is an extremely narrow view.
The incuriousness into vote fraud of this significance of supposed Right of center commentators is frightening and suspicious.
Because Trump. Sad.
If you let this slide, say goodbye to your GOP ever winning anything again. Bill Kristol’s self-fulfilling ‘prophecy’.
Brian, you summed up exactly what I’ve been thinking. This behavior is disgusting.
Yeti persisted!
Jonah, it’s not that you’re wrong about Trump. It’s just that obsessing about it gets tedious. Some of us read most of what you write and listen to most of what you say in a public forum – GLOP, the Remnant, the Dispatch, etc. We’re fans. Don’t bore your fans.
Laying aside the political content of this episode, I would like to point out that two print journalists repeatedly putting off the advertisement so they can take turns extending their conversation about print journalism is the most Print Journalist Thing ever.
Interestingly enough, @saintaugustine has been doing that very thing on his marvelous post, Keeping Track of Election Fraud.
They already carry Bill Kristol so it probably isn’t far behind.
And somehow, the Ricochet Editors REFUSE to bring it to the Main Feed.
This stinks. Treating members badly is not a good move for the management of a club.
LOL. In the very same comment after calling out Ed G for using first-person plural, you use first person possessive! Who is OUR?
Listen, there may be some holes and flaws in some of the charges. I don’t really know. That’s normal for any case that has this many elements. But to conclude there’s nothing ‘there’ is a heluva stretch. Snipe all you like about legal errors, but don’t think your nothing-to-see-here approach isn’t considered an abject betrayal. Why? Because it’s not necessary at this point unless you have a stake in the outcome.
As to your spurious claims that Sidney Powell has to produce hard evidence on Tucker’s ( now failing ) show before presenting it in a legal venue, and conclude that she therefore has no evidence since she declined, dovetails nicely with all the other misunderstandings and conflicting notions you hold.
