Biden Visits, Trump Sues & Murdoch Faces The Music - Irishman In America With Marion McKeone

Screwing up is a fact of life. Refusing to admit to it? Well that’s not in Joe Biden’s personality. This week his visit to Ireland and his All Black’s gaffe humanised the 46th US President in a way few events could. Sunday Business Post Washington Correspondent Marion McKeone dishes some insider information on the inner workings of NGOs and the real reason why Trump’s state visits were few and far between.

What is Biden’s current public perception in the US as his approval rating takes a dive. We need a diagram for all of the civil and criminal lawsuits coming down the pipeline for former President Donald Trump as he sets his sights on suing his former lawyer Michael Cohen. Fox News is suing Rupert Murdoch and things are going pretty well for them so far. We check in on the latest developments.

Justin Pearson and Justin Jones were expelled from the house Tennessee and reinstated this week. Marion explains why there is fear around these two high flying politicians among the old boys club in the Tennesee house of representatives. Marion gears up to attend the NRA convention this weekend where Donald Trump is the keynote speaker. Marion answer’s a great question from a listener about VP Kamala Harris. 

And finally in the ‘wait, wait, it’s not all bad’ section of the show we get some good news and I give my recommendation of the week.

I am also on tour right now. I’ll be doing my latest standup show in Liverpool, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Armagh, Galway, Cork and Tralee to why not grab a ticket while you can. All the other dates have fully sold out! https://linktr.ee/IrishmanAbroad
