Description

s the National Rifle Association’s convention the new CPAC? Marion looks back on a weekend of bizarre speeches and headshakingly worrying individuals. After 20 years of attending this event, nobody is better positioned to comment on the evolution of this event and the changes in the weapons that attract the most punters. 
The star of the event was not Donald Trump. Marion introduces to the new belle of the ball Kristi Noem. Who is and does she really have the best chances of being the Orange Lad’s running mate? 
After the convention Marion jetted off to see the jury sworn in at the Delaware courthouse where Rupert Murdoch and Fox were set to face the Dominion music. We get a run down of how the massive settlement was reached and why this might be just the beginning for Murdoch in a spiral of payouts.  Could he ever go bankrupt? Marion explains why nobody should hold their breath. 
 
Why would shy Ronnie DeSantis take on Mickey Mouse? Marion explains why the worm is turning for the Florida governor. Further evidence of why his campaign for the Presidential nomination looks dead in the water. What has to happen to revive it?
