Back up in prison when the real reason that they locked him back up in prison was specifically to try to stop him from publishing this book. I mean, you know, note to corrupt Law Enforcement figures of the future or the present. If youre going to jail someone to try to stop their book from coming out, youd better, a, succeed, or, b, prepare yourself for the fact that in taking that kind of swing at somebody, you have just made a lot more people want to read that book, if for no other reason than to figure out why the president s attorney general would go through these kinds of acrobatics, illegally according to a federal judge, to try to make sure this never saw the light of day. Boy, is there no better way in our culture to get people interested in something than to tell them they cant see it, to tell them its too dangerous for them to lay eyes on it. Well, we still dont have the whole book, but we do have what are apparently the first pages of it, the foreword, and heres some of it.

And one of the reasons i realized they hated it is elected officials dont ever go through a vetting process. But susan rice had gone through the vetting process multiple times before for administration jobs. And so she was completely accustomed to the way it works. Yes. And for her to say, listen, i was vetted twice for cabinet level positions, like i thought i knew what this was like, i thought i had brin throueen thr and this was way more rigorous than anything i had previously been through, thats a person who speaks from a position as you say of knowledge of how these things are supposed to go. Thee seemed pretty bowled over. Yeah, and as of now it seems to be off to exactly the kind of launch they were hoping for. Thats exactly right. Yes. Thank you, rachel. Thanks, lawrence. Well, in a powerful debut of the democratic tic
Because not pushing back never works. And pushing back sometimes does. For example, it seems to have worked tonight to stop the Trump Administration from stealing your mailbox. From literally snatching your local mailbox off that corner in your neighborhood where it has been forever. You may have seen some of these pictures this week of trucks going around, flatbed trucks with a whole bunch of our mailboxes piled up in the back as workers unbolt them from the sidewalk, remove them, put them in a truck and drive them away. Theyve been going around unbolting these things and taking them. But apparently as of tonight they are going to stop doing that, at least for now, at least until after the election. Because of the pushback theyve had against it. And this is important as a matter of principle and i think in terms of understanding where were at as americans. Its also like a substantively interesting and important part of this story we have been covering now for a few weeks. But lets in

Not somebody who can be easily shocked about what a vet is like. But in this case she seems to be bowled over for how thorough they are. Seems to be a vote of confidence for anyone rooting for the harris and Biden Campaign, wont be any surprises here. Yeah, and as of now it seems to be off to exactly the kind of launch they were hoping for. Thats exactly right. Yes. Thank you, rachel. Thanks, lawrence.
