On the last new show of the week, we cover Trump's bizarre comments on Biden, his fake vaccine claims, and getting suspended from Twitter. We also talk about Sally Yates, the July jobs report and Canada tariffs, the military trying to keep Trump in the dark, and what to expect in workplaces when employees go back. (I just realized I said I was going to talk about Beirut but didn't, so I guess we'll do that on Monday) Most Links to Listen to Quick News Daily Podcast (Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Overcast, Google Podcasts, etc.)  Support Quick News Daily at https://rebrand.ly/SupportQuickNews  ----more----   Get your mail-in ballot, and/or make sure you're registered to vote: https://votesaveamerica.com/be-a-voter/ Apply for PODGO at podgo.co/apply  

Today’s news topics include: New York Attorney General Letitia James’ announcement of a lawsuit against the NRA, catching up on Kris Kobach’s defeat in the Kansas senate primary, and Biden canceling his planned trip to Milwaukee due to COVID concerns (he’s right, it’s not great here).

I was pleasantly surprised that Trump had nothing to do with a mushroom cloud in a foreign country (just what 2020 needed). We cover that explosion in Beirut, the shortage of Clorox wipes and when you can expect them full-stocked, and an update on Hurricane Isaias. Plus, some Trump news I missed yesterday, and more (if you can believe it)!   Most Links to Listen to Quick News Daily Podcast (Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Overcast, Google Podcasts, etc.)    Support Quick News Daily at https://rebrand.ly/SupportQuickNews  ----more----   Get your mail-in ballot, and/or make sure you're registered to vote: https://votesaveamerica.com/be-a-voter/  

It truly is astounding when you think of how badly this day has been already for Trump. But first, we talk about the stimulus bill negotiations, a Gwinnett County, Georgia’s attempt at re-opening (just for teachers), and the latest on Biden’s upcoming VP selection. Then, we get our hands dirty and try to tackle the newest portions of Trump’s interview with Jonathan Swan (who deserves a month off after having to do that) before reassuring Trump that reading is hard. We finish with our newest segment, “Proud to be an American”.

It’s a new week, so we catch up on the developing stories with Tik Tok, the Department of Homeland Security, and Trump’s assault on mail-in voting. We also take a look at the latest news around Jared Kushner’s role in the government’s coronavirus response (or lack thereof) and Lord & Taylor’s bankruptcy.    Most Links to Listen to Quick News Daily Podcast (Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Overcast, Google Podcasts, etc.)    Support Quick News Daily at https://rebrand.ly/SupportQuickNews  ----more----   Get your mail-in ballot, and/or make sure you're registered to vote: https://votesaveamerica.com/be-a-voter/    All other links to listen: https://rebrand.ly/LinksToListen   The rights for the original pictures used in the cover art belong to their respective owners.

Again, there's never a slow week with a crazy person as president, including your favorites like: tweeting about postponing an election, an unhinged interview with Jonathan Swan/Axios, and support for a doctor who believes in demon sex, alien sperm, and vaccines that make you anti-religious. We also have William Barr's testimony, volunteers helping with election cybersecurity, warnings about vaccines becoming an October Surprise, and much more!   It's more political than usual, but I think that it's almost impossible to separate the two these days.

Today is one of those days where it’s tough to separate the politics and the news, and I want you to be aware of that right up front. Topics include: that tweet from Trump about postponing the election, more context for those historically bad GDP numbers, ethical hackers working to protect our election, and so much more.

For news, we talk about the 4th and final pillar of Biden's "Build Back Better" plan, news about his VP pick timing, and Tik Tok. We also go over Donald Trump Jr.'s temporary Twitter suspension, Russian interference happening again, Trump's crazy support of a crazy doctor, and William Barr's testimony that completely disregards the Constitution.

Our stories for today include a look at October Surprises and the possible connection to vaccines, the MLB COVID problem, Ivanka's trip to Minnesota, Chinese retaliation, and more! Plus, I want your feedback!

We're back with a lot of news, including revisiting the vision for the show. We also check in on Trump's new tone, Tom Cotton's blatant racism, Regis Philbin's passing, John Lewis, and so much more!
