Later. Moments ago, the White House Press secretary was asked about it. On the post office, are you able to share if the white house is open to 25 billion the house is propose zmrg we dont have a cap. Were looking at 25 billion. Were expecting to hear from the president , President Trump soon, hes due to give a briefing at 5 30 eastern. Well bring you that, certainly follow that as it unfolds. Joining us is jake sherman. Lets start with that developing story there on capitol hill. Jake, nancy pelosi not satisfied with louis dejoys reversal there and assurances hes trying to give the american public. He said, quote, the postmaster general frankly admitted that he had no intention of replacing the sorting machines, blue mailboxes and other key mail infrastructure that have been removed and the plans for adequate overtime which is critically for the timely mail are not in the works. All of these changes directly jeopardize the election and disproportionately threaten to disenfranchise vot
Reality is he has not won the presidency with legal votes cast. Right now joe biden is ahead in both the popular vote and in the electoral college. Also right now neither the president nor his campaign have provided any evidence to back up their claims of electoral fraud. Now were starting to see some republicans on capitol hill speak out. Adam kinzinger tweeted quote, we want every vote counted, yes, every legal vote, of course. If you have legit concerns about fraud, present evidence and take it to court. Stop spreading misinformation. This is getting insane. Now the Trump Campaign is trying to find that evidence by setting up a hotline at the campaigns headquarters in arlington, virginia asking supporters to tell us what you are seeing and to report cases of voter suppression, irregularities and the president waits in the white house to see if any of his legal challenges stick. The other big question at this hour is if joe biden does hit 270 today and declares himself to be the winn
Democratic candidate for senate in georgia. He came in first in a field of over 20 candidates in last weeks voting in that race for that republican seat now being held by republican senator Kelly Loeffler. Election day now is set for january 5th for the runoff. Raphael warnock will join us at the end of this hour. The two Senate Campaigns in georgia will determine which Party Controls the United States senate. And thats why Raphael Warnock getting tonights last word is so important as we approach that january 5th runoff. And as we complete this recordbreaking fifth day of silence from donald trump, the restoration of sanity is fully under way with the selection of ron klain as the next white house chief of staff. I suppose i should be more careful with the word next because with 70 days left, donald trump still has time to fire his fourth white house chief of staff and perhaps a fifth and a sixth. But ron klain will be the white house chief of staff beginning at 12 00 noon on january 2
Plan . Its way too early for this. Good morning, and welcome to way too early, the show that really does have a packed hour ahead of us. I am kasie hunt on this tuesday, november 10th. Well start with the news. Attorney general bill barr has written a memo authorizing federal prosecutors to investigate any credible allegations of voter fraud before Election Results are certified. In his memo to u. S. Attorneys, barr explains why hell forego the general practice of the justice departments election crimes branch, which is to wait until after Election Results are certified to investigate any fraud claims. He claims, quote, such a passive and delayed enforcement approach can result in situations in which election misconduct cannot realistically be rectified. He then writes, i authorize you to pursue substantial allegations of voting and vote tabulation irregularities prior to the certification of elections in your jurisdictions in certain cases, as i have already done in specific instances
Meaning, buying influence. The question is how much access did they get . What intel do they have on joe and hunter . What did joe know and when did he know it . Harris a big dustup at a Senate Hearing yesterday over tech giant suppressing the hunter biden controversy ahead of the election. Of course we saw some of that live. Republican senator tom cotton is with me today with reaction to all of it. First, im going to start with chief Congressional Correspondent mike emanuel live with the news in washington, d. C. Mike . Mike good afternoon. Many republicans are concerned about the calendar when it comes to the hunter biden investigation. Recognizing january 20 is about a month away. Traditionally when a new president comes in, they fire all the u. S. Attorneys. If he wants to show that this is going to be a right, upstanding Biden Administration, and that they are going to actually let the cards lie where the cards lie on hunter biden he needs to leave the u. S. Attorney in place. Mik
