Descripción

Right in the middle of the Iran war Trump started but can't figure out how to finish, he heads off to China with an entourage of family members and billionaire CEOs, including Elon Musk and Jensen Huang, NVIDIA CEO. Why? Does he need China to save his ass in Iran? Will he sell out the US by agreeing to sell AI computer chip technology? Will he find a way to line his own pockets even more in the process? Right before he boarded Air Force One, Trump said he doesn't think about Americans' financial situation "...even a little bit. I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation. I don’t think about anybody." Scott and I discuss the purposes of Trump's trip and whether he can find a way out of the mess he stepped off in. Check it out, and don't forget to subscribe.

Two Crusty Old Combat Soldiers Sit Down with Tim Cywinski, candidate for Congress in Virginia's CD01

In this episode of the Two Crusty Old Combat Soldiers podcast, Scott and I sit down with Tim Cywinski, community activist, and candidate for Congress in Virginia's First District. We talk policy, the state of his campaign, and why we need fundamental change in the US. Tim is one of seven Democratic candidates running for a chance to face Rob Wittman, a Republican who has represented the District for 18 years. Wittman is all in on Trump and the MAGA project and hasn't held a town hall since 2017 because he knows what will happen if he has to face voters in person. Find out more about Tim at www.VoteTimVA.com [http://www.VoteTimVA.com]. Can't believe Tim Kaine didn't buy that one. This is the fifth in a series of interviews with these candidates. Check out our discussions with Mel Tull, Jason Knapp, Salaam Bhatti, and Ericka Kopp on the Channel, and stay tuned for chats with Elizabeth Dempsey-Beggs, and Shannon Taylor.

Two Crusty Old Combat Soldiers with a Microphone Talk America's 250th Birthday

In this episode of Two Crusty Old Combat Soldiers with a Microphone, Scott and I discuss America's 250th birthday, some of the celebrations planned, and how this year compares to the 200th in 1976 (yes, we're old enough to remember the Bicentennial as adults). Why the heck does Trump want a UFC fight on the White House lawn? Why are music artists pulling out of the National State Fair? We poke a bit of fun, but make no mistake: America is a special nation with all its warts. We've both fought to defend it and don't plan to stop.

Two Crusty Old Combat Soldiers Sit Down with Jason Knapp, Virginia CD01 Congressional Candidate

Now that the redistricting question is settled (for now at least), Congressional candidates are ramping up for the last two months before the Democratic primary in August. In this special episode of Two Crusty Old Combat Soldiers with a Microphone, Scott and I sit down with retired Navy Commander Jason Knapp, candidate for Congress in Virginia's First Congressional District. Jason grew up in a single-parent home and knew he wanted to fly for the Navy very early in life. He was commissioned after completing an aeronautics degree, flew FA-18's, and served on the staff at NATO Headquarters before retiring. Join us for another in a our series of discussions with Virginia candidates during this primary and midterm season here in the Commonwealth.
