Today's topics include Hurricane Florence and climate change rhetoric; Mark Tweets WWII German propaganda, and Hungary's modern day populism similarities; Nike's Kapernick Campaign and its backlash?; Anonymous OP-ED was NOT Mark, but is it a mis-aligned "hero", "protector" or a possibly a democratic crisis?; Jack Dorsey's testimonial; Russian-esque search engine features; "Taskforce: useless!"; Dis-information Warfare in Russia; Mark Wahlberg's workout routine is not fit for Mark.
