1. Matt Taibbi wrote one of my all-time favorite sentences.

"Goldman Sachs is a giant vampire squid wrapped around the face of humanity, relentlessly jamming its blood funnel into anything that smells like money."

It's just perfect!

2. Should be a good interview!

8. Did he say that during one of his RT appearances?

[question everything]

4. I like to read/listen to Bret Stephens

And in this one-on-one formal, it least he will get to talk, not trying to get edgewise among the others who are louder..

5. Good point, these one-on-one interviews work better that way, though they are more difficult to do

I've got to give Bill, and all the late night guys, a lot of credit for making the effort rather than just sticking us with repeats during these tough times - and they have had some great guests!

6. He's turned into a bitter, narrow minded scold.

He's become painful to watch.

7. Taibbi is representing the Putin govt.
