Thedoughertyreport's Podcast

It's Friday the 13th.  We KNOW something is going to happen in Syria this weekend.  We KNOW James Comey is going to be all over TV all weekend.  We KNOW there will be other news that is not so pleasant to talk about.  We KNOW we're headed to the secret bunker for the weekend and we KNOW that Bada Bing is in our future.  Other than that, it's a pretty undecided world, so today's show is fairly light-hearted. 

Guest John D'Alesandro joins us on Thursday mornings to discuss a real-life story from hospitals.  In this case, a nurse's mistake made a patient much more ill, created a lot of worry for the patient and her family and required thousands of dollars in additional unnecessary tests.  You'll also learn how YOU can share YOUR medical mishap story at NextLevelHospital.com.

Elizabeth is BACK and with a lot on her mind!

Imagine this... your stomach hurts and your doctor tells you the pain might be something serious.  He wants you to go see a gastroenterologist who will be able to help with the diagnosis. You make the call to set the appointment, but even with a referral, you're told it will be up to 12 weeks to see the specialist.  This was exactly the case John D'Alesandro and his team at NextLevelHospital.com faced.  John tells the whole story, and how you can be proactive in your own medical care.

What if almost everything you've been told about the assassination of the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. was false?  What role did people like Jesse Jackson play that afternoon and evening 50 years ago?  Was this another "deep state" assassination like that of JFK... and two months later RFK?  Professor Jim Fetzer is a regular guest on the program and tackles these questions.  You may not like his answers, but if we are truly ever going to "overcome" then we have to demand the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth from our government.  After the interview, we read the press release from Congressman Darren Soto's (D-Orlando) office regarding an incident at Disney last weekend.  Most members of the media are praising the congressman for coming out with such a thorough press release, we think it was little more than him rolling the bus over his wife's medical history to preserve own political life!

Taken from The Dougherty Report program of 04/04/18.  What if almost everything you've been told about the assassination of the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. was false?  What role did people like Jesse Jackson play that afternoon and evening 50 years ago?  Was this another "deep state" assassination like that of JFK... and two months later RFK?  Professor Jim Fetzer is a regular guest on the program and tackles these questions.  You may not like his answers, but if we are truly ever going to "overcome" then we have to demand the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth from our government.

While one president kicked the can down the road (Obama) another President (Trump) is actually doing something about the problem.  We've got an update on the "caravan" of Central Americans coming northward right now and what the president is going to to do stop it.    

A "caravan" of who know what type of people are moving north through Mexico on their way to the US.  POTUS is standing firm, they are NOT welcomed here under these circumstances.  We looked at how the US Government (under Obama's watch) cooked up a scheme to slow down the flow of Central Americans into the US... and how it's failing miserably!  We also covered the sabre rattling from the AG's office in California about "the question." And do we know the identity of the White House mole?

So, Laura Ingraham is in the crosshairs...  it's ok...she can take it. Both a Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School student and a Hollyweird actor are after the Fox TV Host right now.  We also looked at the latest security breach... at Under Armour.  Houston's Housing Authority is sitting on a lot of cash... unable to use it because no one wants an apartment complex for poor people in their backyard.  Oh, the money didn't come in response to Hurricane Harvey, this has been going on since Hurricane Ike back in 2008.

Roseanne is back and the lefties are already trying to take her down. What Google and Facebook have ACTUALLY complied on you. The head of the DNC is going nutz over THAT QUESTION in the 2020 Census, and wacky news from college campuses.

Yo... protesters... come back to Washington DC and clean up after yourselves you filthy pigs!  Why is it lefty protesters think it's ok to toss garbage everywhere  The National Mall was a disgusting mess after the weekend of protests.  Elizabeth shared a great idea... forget the wall across the southern border... wall off the rest of the US from California!  We also talked about the latest from the Noor Salman trial... and over the weekend, two boys, aged 16 and 14 trashed a local elementary school.  Their parents did what had to be very painful, but the right thing, they turned the boys over the the cops.  We finished the show a bunch of odd stories that prove humanity is in a long slow decline!  :-)

Elizabeth is taking the day off which gives Michael a chance to spout off on a number of topics:  * recent developments in the Noor Salman trial. * Roseanne Barr telling Jimmy Kimmel to shut his "F$%^& mouth"! * Has the GOP leadership decided to throw in the towel and give up? * The president has a 1.3 Trillion Dollar Spending Spree on his desk? *  Does the DOJ have a grand jury ready to hand down indictments over the Clinton email scandal and its cover up by the FBI? * Top 10 STUPID new laws in California

Hurricanes have had names since the 1950's but now even winter storms are getting names.  So while "Winter Storm Toby" is lashing the eastern seaboard, Elizabeth saw a news story focusing on people stranded together at an interstate rest stop.  That led to the idea... "wouldn't that be a great Reality TV show?"  Is Russia our enemy or our friend?  Finally, Joe "Creepy Veepy" Biden was invited to speak to a group of students at UM about bullying and sexual violence toward women.  In that speech, Ole' Joe sounds like he had been at a kegger the night before and again, threatened to beat up President Trump.   

So... the feds are trying Omar Mateen's wideo, Noor Salman on "Aiding and Abetting" but what does the crime really look like?  There's a BIG difference between state law, and federal law... and it could mean the difference between an acquittal and a conviction.  Elizabeth explains.  Plus, is there ANYONE with any common sense working for the Broward County Sheriff's Office?  In addition to the "Cowardly Lion" deputy (who hid behind a building while gunshots were ringing out at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School on Valentine's Day) now we get word that "Sleepy" was just sitting in his cruiser at the same school sound asleep!  Unbelievable... but true.  And what's even more unbelievable is that the governor allows this incompetent sheriff to keep his job.

So what happens when you "drain the swamp"... anyone from down south knows.  The creatures and critters that live in the swamp get VERY unhappy and they strike back.  That's what you're witnessing in Washington DC.

So over the weekend, US AG Jeff Sessions pulled the trigger and fired FBI's Deputy Director Andrew McCabe.  We covered the story from several angles and tried to put it all into perspective.
