Bo Nix can be heard yelling on the other end of the phone.
“Big dog! He’s a Bronco!,” the Broncos first-round quarterback out of Oregon is saying in a video shared by the NFL. “Man, I’m so excited for you, bro. I’m so excited. Like, it couldn’t have worked out more perfect. I’m so excited, dude. They’re getting a steal.”

Former Attorney General Bill Barr was one of Trump's most prominent critics, but he came out this week to endorse the four-times indicted former President. Barr told CNN's Kaitlan Collins that Trump "would lose his temper" and talk about having his opponents executed, but he's OK with that because he doesn't "think" Trump would carry through with executing his rivals. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court is considering giving Presidents immunity for any crimes committed, even murder.

William P. Barr is today's object of abuse. Two-faced, or incapable of reason?
Digby has his recent CNN appearance, & Nancy LeTourneau has a speech he gave at Notre Dame in 2019.
