Good evening, rachel. I really liked your point in the show about trump tweeting about the transgender policy in the military going straight to the supporters of Jeff Sessions, the Jeff Sessions base, which by the way existed politically before there was ever a trump base. And i hadnt considered tha...

Plan b around this, but i cant imagine that his plan for getting this through involved losing both a moderate like Susan Collins and home state iconoclast like rand paul, and also conservatives like mike lee and jerry moran. Its such a heterojennous group that is saying no. It implies that any plan mcconnell might have had for how to maneuver around the votes he needs might have fallen apart. I dont know if more time is going to help or hurt. Im starting to feel tonight looking at senators twitt...

Show and commercials and all that stuff. Me losing the capacity at age 44 to read a digital clock. Yeah, its awkward. So weve got a real cliffhanger for tomorrow night. Yes. At 9 00 p. M. It involves a prop, and its funny, and its about the epa. My guess is it will still be scheduled for the end of the show. Probably. So im going to see it, and im going to have to react to that. I cannot wait, rachel. Thank you. By the way, tomorrow night, no matter what they say in that control room, take as mu...

Hold, and the old rule being that the longer it takes the senate to get to a controversial vote, the weaker the support is. But, you know, rachel, i cant rely on any of the old rules anymore. But this time it seemed to work. Well, yeah. You know, Mitch Mcconnell shouldnt be underestimated. Mitch mcconnell is good at getting stuff passed, and he moves in mysterious ways. Its possible that he has some plan b around this, but i cant imagine that his plan for getting this through involved losing bot...

Even on a wall anywhere in a building of the trump administration. Yeah. Well, you know, shes doing an excellent job, harriet tubman, and shes getting recognized more and more. Not by this group.

Thank you, my friend. Donald trump was the first president ial nominee who did not release his tax returns ...

Himself and then this. President trumps lawyers are exploring ways to limit or undercut special counsel robert s. Mueller iiis russian investigation. Building a case against what they allege are conflict of interest and the president s authority to grant pardons according to people familiar with the effort. The question is, pardon for what . You know, don, so Many Democrats again and even people in the Republican Party want the process to play out. But there are democrats who are saying that thi...

The leaking. And of course, of course tonight right on schedule, the Washington Post has another massive breaking news story about the Trump White House and the president in particular entirely supplied by trump leakers. If you want to eat an elephant, you got to eat it one bite at a time. Sarah and i are going to do that together. He does not have a role at this time in the Trump Administration. Was Anthony Scaramucci fired, or did he resign . Oh, i think he was certainly pushed out. The presid...

Candidate may have had a loan for 60 million from a Russian Oligarch, as an economy guy, that sends up red flags. If you dont focus your entire career on the economy, i suppose that sends up a lot of red flags as well. It just seems weird. Yeah. Well, its also strange that its undisclosed this far into this investigation, and this far into all the public scrutiny that manafort has had. One of the interesting things in this reporting from Richard Engel tonight is not just the size of the financia...

The internet wasnt broken in 2015 and the government didnt need to try to fix it. Well be hearing from the best source, an fcc commissioner joins me to explain who exactly wants this. And ...

Treason. And a late night tweet amid all the drama. The president falsely claims he cancelled a london trip because the embassy was moved. Massive protests awaiting him may have had something to do with it and he gets plenty of facts wrong and details mixed up. We have reports this morning from the white house, from seoul, and london. Good morning, everyone. Welcome to early start. A remarkable 24 hours. Im christine romans. Im dave briggs. Its friday, january 12th. Eight years ago today an eart...
