David Shuster

Coming up, Sarah Kensior joins us.

And then David Shuster Day on Mondays.

I've got Trump admiring the rear ends of people, which is pretty much...

I mean, I don't mean to...

The Mark Thompson Show.

And the books compile so much of what she talks about and through the years have been incredibly predictive.

All right, I've got David Shuster standing by.

And now,

And hello everybody David Shuster here in for Mark Thompson who is still hobbling on his leg he's got the day off there is a lot to talk about over the next couple of hours Russia has agreed to peace talks brokered by the United States with Ukraine but there is a catch the catch involves a side deal for Trump Griff we'll talk about that we'll also get into the calls for Elon Musk to face criminal investigation and at least a congressional investigation for jamming the Starshield defensive system that Ukraine had been using to coordinate its defensive systems against Russian missiles and drones.

There's also something of a blame game within the Trump administration over all of that.

J.D. Vance is getting hammered by fellow Republicans for his defense of Vivek Ramaswamy and that awful ad in which Ramaswamy comes out as a full pedophile protector.

So with that, we will end the show right there on behalf of Kim, Albert, Mark Thompson.

David Katz, Tom Hartman, Michael Spieger, and everybody else who has been contributing to the Mark Thompson Show on this day.

I'm David Shuster.

We'll see you tomorrow, everybody.

Thanks.

I'll let Sarah talk about that more.

David Shuster joins us today with a healthy dose of politics that does have some additional polling integrated into our conversation.

And I've got El-Sayed on the... campaign trail and being confronted by someone who as it turns out is a Republican operative masquerading as just somebody in the crowd and then Trita Parsi is here.

So we will talk about Iran and Trita Parsi's latest reflections on what's going on in the Middle East are pretty sobering because The idea that you could make a deal with this administration may be really sort of a fading notion.

The Mark Thompson Show.

I'm now running up right against it.

I need to get to David Shuster right away, don't I, Albert? It is one of those things.

Albert, thank you.

it feels like Friday came speeding right toward us.

So I can't wait for Friday Fabulous Florida, and doing it with you, David Shuster.

Absolutely.

Well, I'm, I'm thrilled to be working with you.

Um, but on b- but on behalf of the entire team, uh, and Michael Spiegel and Mo and everybody else-

Mm

... who contributes to the show, I'm David Shuster.

Thanks for watching, everybody.

Hello everybody, David Shuster here.

[clapping] Thank you, I appreciate the applause.

Mark Thompson is, is out today.

Liz talking about how Mark does incredible interviews, and she's grateful for that.

Indeed.

Uh, regarding your orange juice in the morning situation, no scurvy for David Shuster.

[laughs]

That's right, Tammy.

I just had it yesterday, so I wanted to run it today, but you can see we're just packed with guests, so we'll do it tomorrow.

But as Kim says, I won't be here tomorrow, but David Shuster will be here tomorrow.

That's right.

David Schuster will be here, and David Katz will be here.

Without you, Mark, the day just isn't the same.

Bobby, you see? Kim, take a little note from Bobby.

You guys are going to love David Shuster.

Mark wasn't held enough as a child.

And I still think that was being Islamophobic.

But it is true that in the same way that Mehdi Hassan will never veer from anything Al Jazeera wants him to say, in the same way that David Shuster told me, And Michelle, when we did a show with him yesterday that when he was at Al Jazeera, there were just certain things that were just not covered.

You just couldn't talk about the slave labor that was being used for the World Cup because Qatar owns Al Jazeera.

In the same way, you're not going to be able to do that, but not in a little station like Al Jazeera, on big stations like CNN and CBS and HBO.

Uh, the guys are here.

It is, uh, Mo Kelly, and it'll be David Shuster today instead of, uh, instead of, um- Michael Shore-

What?

... who's got the, the ...

Uh, share the show if you can.

We have a Facebook page.

You get a lot of clips, like we're gonna talk to David Shuster and Mo Kelly, and that'll be on the Facebook page.

And you can share that on, uh, Facebook and, you know, all those cool things that you kids do.
