From Her Los Feliz Basement, Stephanie Miller Is Rallying Millions Against Trump

At precisely five minutes before the crack of ass, or stupid o'clock, as it's known in these parts — which is to say a sylvan street of houses perched regally near the entrance to Griffith Park — a Lululemon-clad whirlwind with a spinner-sinewed frame clatters downstairs two steps at a time. Uggs bumping carpet, she makes her way toward the hothouse warmth of a brightly lit, dorm room–sized basement space, a cup of coffee cantilevered in one hand against a page freshly printed with Donald Trump atrocities in the other, two polar bear–white Great Pyrenees lumbering behind her like a furry snow front.

She stops short in the doorway, looks in wide-eyed astonishment at her two "stem cells" (her term for her millennial producers, Vanessa "Baby" Rumbles and Sean Comiskey) and issues her version of a morning salutation: "Did that motherfucker start a war while we were getting shitfaced?"

She's referring to the evening before, when President Donald J. Trump, in the midst of hoovering up "the most beautiful piece of chocolate cake you've ever seen," while meeting with Chinese President Xi at his Mar-a-Lago estate, ordered a showy but ultimately meaningless Tomahawk missile strike on a Syrian airfield.

Trump did so, he tweeted, as payback for the country's leader gassing his own people. But to those like her, who (along with many others, including a recent panel of psychiatrists gathered for a conference at Yale University) consider him a sociopathic liar, the real reason was less noble: He was desperate to stop his tanking poll numbers and cauterize the metastasizing cancer of Russia revelations spreading through the press.

She was in gay paris last week, but the shows were still great thanks to Frangela. She has great guests, like Malcolm Nance. I've gone to the Sexy Liberal Tour show twice.....LOVE HER and the mooks.

She has some great guests on. I love that callers can ask even Malcolm Nance questions about how things work in the IC. I think he's on weekly, sometimes by phone. I bought his book, The Plot To Hack America because he was on her show.

back when she was on Green 960 AM in SF

(Unable to get podcasts because of computer limitations)

She is definitely the most fun to listen to of all the progressive radio talk show hosts.

(Hard to believe her father was Barry Goldwater's running mate, Rep. William Miller).


K&R, thanks for posting
