23 MAR 2022 · Welcome to this special edition of The Halli Casser-Jayne Show Podcast Ukraine at War. My guest this week is Franz Sedelmayer, once a close friend and business partner of Vladimir Putin, until the friendship and business relationship met with the reality of the economic jiu jitsu of the newly-elected President Boris Yeltsin and the political and economic ambitions of Putin, Sedelmayer’s considerable assets soon expropriated by the new government. Sedelmayer went to war with Putin to retrieve what was his and won, waging a 20-year campaign against the Kremlin and Putin, ultimately winning more than 100 court cases and foreclosing on Russian state property in Western Europe, becoming, for the record, the only individual ever to collect money from Vladimir Putin's Russia. Franz knows Putin and understands Russia in ways others don’t. The discussion you are about to hear is brutally frank and in parts disturbing, as reality often is. Joe President Biden, President Zelenskyy, Vladimir Putin, NATO, we scrutinize the performance of all the players. What have they done right? What have they done wrong? Where do we go from here. Let’s talk with Franz Sedelmayer. Listen here >> https://bit.ly/3uo9CbX

Boy oh boy, it’s been quite a week in politics and politics is what we talk about on The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast when Halli and her partner in politics, former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper slice and dice all things politics, and our lawmakers too. The Kyle Rittenhouse verdict ricochet across our politics this week. Was it a vote for vigilantism? And what of Fox News and Tucker Carlson? Has Fox officially declared itself pro-vigilantism? We take a deep dive into Mr. Carlson’s shenanigans and Fox News. Speaker Nancy Pelosi once again came through for the Democrats, passing the Build Back Better legislation through the House. It goes to the Senate? Will Joe Manchin let it leave? Is President Joe Biden getting enough credit for his accomplishments? Covid19 is again raging across Europe and lockdown fury has become a thang overseas. But Angela Merkle not one to ring alarm bells is warning Germany that it has never seen anything like what is happening now. Inflation, inflation, inflation. Did a colonoscopy bring us, however briefly, our first woman POTUS? Who is the most influential politician of 2021: Joe Biden, Donald Trump, or Joe Manchin?

5 NOV 2021 · You win some, you lose some and that’s what happened in the off-year election, the Democrats losing the Virginia governorship but holding onto New Jersey. And then the spin began and that’s where we begin our conversation this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast when Halli and her partner in politics, former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper sit down to discuss the latest political news. You win some, you lose some. Question: Who is the better spinner, Democrats or Republicans? Is the glass half-empty or half-full? Republican Glenn Youngkin defeated former Democratic Governor McAuliff, but history shows that the party in power in Washington almost always loses the Virginia off-year elections. It’s been 40 years since a Democrat one two consecutive terms in New Jersey. Governor Phil Murphy did. But on the theme of good news and bad news, the Covid-19 vaccination for children has been approved, but despite a growing vaccination rate in the U.S. and abroad, Covid-19 is on the rise in Europe. The House is expected to finally pass the Infrastructure Bill and the Build Back Better Plan. That’s good news. The bad news: They didn’t pass either prior to the election. There’s more news on Donald Trump, on voting rights legislation, climate change, the Steele Dossier, the January 6 Committee… You win some, you lose some. Will the Democrats be able to win over West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin? Will NYSD lose in its efforts to indict former President Trump? Jobs, jobs, jobs! There is a lot more in political news.

29 OCT 2021 · Democrats: Quit your damn whining and pop that cork. It ain’t perfect, but it appears that President Joe Biden is about to snatch an important victory from the jaws of defeat and his Build Back Better Plan will soon become one of the largest pieces of legislation passed by a President of the United States ever. Is it what everyone wanted? No, but there’s enough in Build Back Better for every Democrat to claim victory and that’s where we begin our conversation this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast when Halli and her partner in politics, former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper sit down to discuss the latest political news. It’s been a long slog. And, it isn’t exactly over. But it’s a pretty certain bet that Build Back Better is about to be passed, despite the team of S & M, Senators Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin’s efforts to put the kibosh on the legislation every step along the way. There’s more in political news. Where oh where is Steve Bannon and why is the January 6 Committee still talking about what they will do, but don’t do? Halli wonders if the Committee is afraid of the answers they will surely find. Wait until you hear what Matt has to say when Halli asks him what should happen to former President Trump if the committee can prove he attempted a coup. There’s Covid19 news to discuss. Tucker Carlson is a topic. Can former Virginia Governor Terry McAuliff pull off the win? Alec Baldwin, Ron DeSantis, the relationship between Vice President Harris and POTUS are part of the discussion. And the economy.

14 OCT 2021 · Limbo is a place in political hell and that’s just where we begin this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast when Halli and her partner in politics, former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper sit down to discuss the latest political news. Build Back Better, infrastructure, reconciliation, waiting…waiting…waiting. Waiting is torture, and waiting we are to see just how that dynamic S & M duo, Senator Manchin of West Virginia and Senator Sinema of Arizona will actually vote. Waiting to see what the Jan. 6th Committee does when Republicans defy their subpoenas. Waiting to see if Covid19 is really on the retreat. Waiting, waiting, waiting…and that’s not a good place for the Democrats to be. Will getting their agenda passed, far less than what they initially promised, fix the frustration? And as their agenda remains in limbo, what of the Republicans who never missed an opportunity to grab the headlines and push their message while the Democrats clutch pearls. No, limbo is not a good place for Democrats to be. Tune in. We’re always lively and honest on The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast with Matthew Cooper. Infrastructure, abortion rights, Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Covid-19, the Supreme Court, Donald Trump, Rudy Giuliani, the January 6th Commission. It’s politics at its best. Truly, we cover it all.

2 OCT 2021 · Bring out the bagels and lox. Settle in. We’ve got a lot to get to. Oy, that Democratic Party and all its mishigas. What a week of drama they brought us all, including that S & M duo and all their torturing: Senators Joe Manchin and Kysteren Sinema. There will be a vote and there won’t -- hostage taking at its best, and that’s just where we begin this week on The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast when joining Halli at her table to discuss the latest political news is her partner in politics former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper. Definition of the Yiddish word mishigas: craziness; silliness; tomfoolery; nonsense. We surely did get a lot of that from the Democratic Party this week and a lesson in the art of war as the two factions of the party, the liberals and the moderates went at each other, more like a clown fight than two gladiators after each other in a coliseum. Caught in the middle, as usual, are We the People. We ought to worry when the Democrats control the House, the Senate and the Executive Branch of government and they can’t bring home the much-needed infrastructure package and the social programs most Americans have been waiting for for far too long. Is all lost? Probably not. But have the Democrats given the Republicans who know how to turn fodder into gold bullion on a platter their ammunition? Tune in. We’re always lively and honest on The Halli Casser-Jayne Podcast with Matthew Cooper.

Round and round we go, our so-called leaders fighting the same old battles. Mask mandates or not? Vaccine mandates or not? Raise the debt ceiling or not? Immigration reform?

9 SEP 2021 · IT’S MOURNING AGAIN IN AMERICA It’s mourning again in America as the Covid-19 Pandemic takes it’s toll on America and refrigeration trucks are deployed all across the country as people die unnecessarily from the virus and morgues are overwhelmed. Welcome to the effects of Republican madness and The Halli Casser-Jayne Show and that’s just where we begin this week when joining Halli at her table to discuss the latest political news is her partner in politics former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper. We mourn. We mourn those who have lost their lives to Covid-19 unnecessarily when a simple jab in the arm might have saved their lives. We mourn the loss of Texas women’s right to choose what happens to their bodies as the Supreme Court eviscerates by a shadow vote Roe v. Wade. We mourn for the lives lost twenty years ago, the 2,750 people who were killed in New York, 184 at the Pentagon, and 40 in Pennsylvania when America was attacked by terrorists. But we also celebrate. There is a vaccine to thwart a ruthless virus. American women are strong and will stand up and fight for their rights, and there are a lot of men who will stand up with them. The terrorists hit us hard, but we fought back and though America has lots of demons to fight right here at home, we are still here. It’s mourning again in America. But we will survive Covid-19, reckless, cynical governors like Ron DeSantis and Gregg Abbott, a Supreme Court that has turned itself into a lowly Night Court.

12 AUG 2021 · The dog days of Ron DeSantis are upon us. While the Governor of Florida mandates no mask mandates, Florida hospitals crumble under the weight of Covid-19 cases. Schools open and parents anguish, send their kids to public schools or not, a Sophie’s Choice question forced on moms and dads statewide due to the Florida governor’s malfeasance. Welcome to Republican madness and The Halli Casser-Jayne Show and that’s just where we begin this week when joining Halli at her table to discuss the latest political news is her partner in politics former White House correspondent and Newsweek and Time alum, Matthew Cooper. Yes, it’s August and the dog days of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis are upon us. Remember, what happens in Florida does not stay in Florida. Holding fast to the governor’s mandate of a no mask mandate despite the objections of health officials nationwide, Florida Covid-19 cases surge to their highest levels since the pandemic began, the Delta variant more virulent than earlier strains of the virus. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) nearly twenty-five thousand new cases were reported in one day in Florida, some 15,449 residents hospitalized with only 230 of 261 hospitals reporting their COVID patients and nearly 90 percent of the state’s intensive care unit beds filled. Over 600 Floridians died this week, the total Florida Covid-19 deaths now over 40,000, a catastrophe of one man’s bad judgment, Governor Ron DeSantis. Will he reverse course? Halli and Matt ponder that question and slice and dice the other political news of the week, and there is much. Tune in. The dog days of Ron DeSantis, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo resigns, the bipartisan passage of Joe Biden’s Infrastructure bill, Matt Gaetz, the Afghanistan tragedy, Rand Paul as squirrel, inflation, and for comic relief a little bit on Rudy Giuliani. But that’s just where we begin.
