circumstances. we made it through is what an ally close to mccarthy said. that was saying a lot considering everything going on this week which was basically the extremist part of the conference. you know, causing mccarthy a lot of problems, reminiscent of what john boehner was dealing with the rise of the house freedom caucus. i will spoil one of the great lines that michael steele gave to us. encapsulating what mccarthy successfully did. if your job is moving the minority in the house to the majority, you need to focus on addition, not subtraction. that means keeping all the frogs in the wheel barrow, even though some of them are pretty ugly. i think that s what you saw mccarthy trying to do this week. the uglies being some of this pretty violent and horrific rhetoric not being condemned. whether these tactics are good
starting to get rain across the southeast. they re getting way too much of it. some spots across the southeast now, say georgia into south carolina, probably another 4 to 5 inches of rain over the next four to five days. so we will see that. flash flooding that s going on across areas of the southeast. that on going river flooding is that big problem. that water doesn t come and go away real quick. if your house floods very quickly and the water is gone, an hour of water on your drywall doesn t cause many problems. days and days, it will rot everything and you ll have to completely destroy everything. dana: my friend in nashville had a post, his wheel barrow out back for all the work he does. it was filled with water. we ll be keeping in touch with you. our reporting on this weather event has been amaying. you bet. dana: we learn more about the

we are sort of in uncharted territory here and the sense of things that could happen in theory but we don t think will happen because it would be strange, a violation of norms and traditions and the way things are done and optics, that does not seem to be a particularly good guide to how things happen in 2017. and so i think the fact something is possible is something that we should not look away from as we embark on watching bob mueller try to make sense of this incredible mess. speaking of the incredible mess, am i correct that the congressional investigations i thought it would be put in a wheel barrow and brought over to where mueller rents office space. they re goi to continue concurrently. so we re going to have that news and stress and leakage? they re going to continue concurrently but i think you ll see bob mueller try to
was all going to be put in a wheel barrow and brought over to wherever mueller rents office space. they re going to continue concurrently, so we re going to have that noise and stress and leakage and all of that? they re going to continue concurrently, but i think what you ll see is bob mueller try to deconflict the investigations to make sure that there is never you know, that the senate and the house investigations don t do anything that will possibly interfere with his ability to eventually bring criminal charges. and so i think as an early sign, if we see the jtice department not turn over these memos that james comey wrote and they do it at mueller s request, it s probably because he thinks that s something potentially obstruction of justice is something he needs to look very strongly at. but i ll say at the end of the investigation, one of the things i think can be particularly unsatisfying about a criminal investigation, at the end of this investigation, bob mueller will e
