Sorry but I missed it as something came up. Don't see any breaking news here telling me it was a bombshell. If nobody's in an orange jumpsuit, it's a nothing burger.
i watched it at my gf’s and there was nothing there.
Good show as always, but nothing earthshaking.
Every one of the MSM are going to say Trump was sending a signal by sending folks to hear her tirade against Ryan.
He will deny it and say he was referring to her brief piece on the NSA surveillance story.
With Trump, you never know. Was his tweet about Obama “wiretapping” just bait for the left and MSM to go bananas. He said he knew of some evidence, but they jumped on the bandwagon
I don’t know exactly why President Trump wanted everyone to watch - that’s the question.
The only thing I thought it might be was her tirade against Ryan. Perhaps he feels that takes any onus away from him, as well as giving everyone an introduction to what his plan was all along. Diminish Ryan.
Actually, there WAS a bombshell, at least for me. The last segment let America know that ADULTS were being integrated with high school kids. Illegals immigrant adults. Maybe you all were aware of this, but I wasn’t, and were I a parent down there, I’d be going ballistic.
then why doesn’t trump have the stones to just come out and say it?
The bombshell was that Judge Jeanine was doing her show from DC instead of NYC. So instead of Street Justice on 6th avenue, she did Street Justice at the Tidal Basin.Did someone say Tidal Basin Bombshell?
I enjoy listening but the unfulfilled hype is discrediting. Waste of headlines and if she ever has a bombshell to deliver no one will pay attention. Sad.
It was his first shot at Ryan. Trust me. Ryan is going to have a very bad week. If you shoot at the king and miss, you are screwed.
The Army Corps of Engineers should be in charge of those.

Patience, grasshopper. Trump is a mastermind. He's playing 4D chess on a 3D chessboard against people playing 2D chess.
Anyone who aaches “bombshell” to a story about a claim is being ridiculous.
Claims are cheap. Proof is what we need.
Why is this posted in News? Vanities belong in Chat.
The bombshell:
The Speaker of the House embarrassed himself, his party, and the President just 24 hours ago in a failed attempt to pass very important legislation.
The following day, the President of the United States tells the nation to watch a TV show tonight at 9PM.
Promptly at 9PM, the host of the show goes on an extended rant about the Speaker of the House being a loser, traitor, and dirtbag and needs to step down or be removed.
This is the second thread on this topic, and 99% of the dumbass conservatives still don't see the pattern.
"Which way did he go, George.... which way did he go?"
It's damned amazing the Democrats are out of power. It's certainly not through any brilliance on the Right.
Yes. It was clear as day to anyone watching:
Trump alerted all to watch the judge call for Ryan to step down.
Duh!
Everybody is competing for the limited pie of viewers and hype stuff all the time to get ratings. Everything, all day long is "Breaking News" and it is usually a letdown from the hype. Adams Apple MadCow and Trump's taxes is just one of the better known, recent jump-the-shark moments for cable TV news.
Big nothing burgers are becoming commonplace, as a result.
Wilbur Mills was a powerful Democratic member of the United States House of Representatives from the State of Arkansas.
Wilbur Daigh Mills was born on 24 May 1909 in Kensett, White County, Arkansas. Mills attended public schools and later graduated from Hendrix College in Conway, Arkansas. He obtained his law degree from Harvard University and was admitted to the bar in 1933.
Mills served in the House of Representatives from 1939 to 1977 and served as the chair of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee, a post he held longer than any other in American history. Mills was often termed "the most powerful man in Washington" during his tenure.
Mills served as County Judge of White County, Arkansas during the depression years and began a county-funded program to pay medical bill, prescription drugs, and hospital treatment for the poor.
His accomplishments in Congress included playing a large role in the creation of the Medicare program. Mills initially opposed the program but eventually shepherded it through Congress. Mills was also acknowledged as the primary tax expert in the Congress and a voice for the Tax Reform Act of 1969. Mills favored a conservative fiscal policy and a balanced budget but also supported various liberal programs.
Mills ran for President of the United States in the 1972 Democratic primaries.
But Mills is best known for being disgraced by scandal after a drunken incident on October 7, 1974. Mills was caught cheating on his wife. He chased after and won the heart of a stripper named Anabell Battistella, who was also known as "Fanne Foxe, the Argentine Firecracker." Poor Mills. In the 1970's, voters did not care for promiscuous behavior on the part of adulterous womanizing politicians. When Mills, the chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, got drunk and drove his car into the Washington Tidal Basin while in the company of Ms. Foxe, well, it caused a real scandal. It was OK for politicians to act like cats in heat, as long as they did not get caught on camera. Indeed, one of Wilbur Mills problems was that his questioning had been caught on camera. Mills, so used to lying like a politician, panicked when he could not lie his way out of the situation. Mills's initial, glib comment on his behavior was, "Don't go out with foreigners who drink Champagne." Later, his more sober explanation was, "I drank booze, and I mixed the drinks with some highly addictive drugs." He eventually revised his explanation like a true politician: "I now believe that the fatigue and pressure built up by years of dedicated work for my constituents and for the whole nation had an impact on me far beyond what I suspected," Mills said. The Washington press corp was generally very liberal and tolerant of adultery. Reporter Nancy Dickerson never reported until after he died, that a drunken Wilbur Mills took her to see stripper Fanne Foxe perform and declared, "I own her." Liberal and tolerant, unless there was a good picture available.
Roger Mudd, who used to work at CBS News, said of it, "The best thing about this story is, it can only get worse."
Mills was questioned by Washington, D.C. Police at 2am and found to be intoxicated. His face was bloody from a scuffle with Fox. When police approached the car, Foxe leapt from the car and into the Tidal Basin. While his office denied that he had a drinking problem, Jack Anderson reported that - 'if his staff said, "He can't speak with you now, he's on the floor", it was never clear if Mills was on the floor of the House or the floor of his office.' - In the '74 election a month after the scandal, Mills had a challenger, who used the slogan, "If you like liquor, sex and thrills, cast your vote for Wilbur Mills". Mills won anyway, but with only 59% in a heavily Democrat district. Within weeks, Mills appeared on a Boston stage carousing with Foxe, apparently intoxicated. Faced with an uprising among House Democrats, Mills was forced to resign as Ways and Means chairman, and in 1976 he announced he would not seek another term, ending his 38-year House career.
Wilbur Mills died on 2 May 1992 in Searcy, Arkansas. Mills is buried at Kensett Cemetery in Kensett, Arkansas.
Various schools, highways, and other structures are named after Mills in Arkansas.
Basically, she laid out that Ryan & his bill was sabotage to discredit Trump. I agree.
It was her opening statement, directly to and about Speaker Ryan definitely needing to go. She hit him hard, and she’s very, very close to Trump. I wondered if she was speaking for him.
Why else would he have promoted tonight’s program? The rest of her show was rather normal interesting fare, with Gorka included.
At first I would have agreed. 3-D chess. Lately, I think he’s just playing us.
