BUD'S BLOG WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 2nd, 2023
I predicted during Monday's show that Tuesday would likely be the day former President Trump would be indicted by Special Prosecutor Jack Smith for his role in the January 6th 2021 assault on the U.S. Capitol and attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 election. That's exactly what happened late Tuesday afternoon and Trump's 3rd indictment will be our main talk topic when we come on the air at 6 o'clock Wednesday morning. Here's a link to the indictment story, which contains the indictment itself....all 45 pages of it which I'll be reading, and which you can read in advance of our show. We'll debate how strong the indictment is, and discuss the charges, and the penalties Trump could face if he's convicted on one or more of the four counts.

Our other hot topic involves Governor Ron DeSantis inviting Vice President Kamala Harris to Tallahassee for a roundtable debate over his newly approved African-American studies curriculum for Florida's public school students. Harris has now made two speeches in Florida accusing DeSantis of white-washing the history of slavery, accusing him of being a political extremist and implying he's a racist. The Governor says Harris is lying and attacking him for political purposes, which I think is right on the money! So, did VP Harris accept DeSantis' invitation? I regret to say she did not, because I think it would have been awesome to see him take her on, and take her down with the cameras rolling! Let's talk about this!
