Were looking forward to that the beat, 6 00 p. M. Eastern week nights. But more importantly the Rachel Maddow show starts right now. Good evening, rachel. Good evening, ari. Thanks. Much appreciated. Thanks for joining us at home. It is friday. So that means the news has again a little nuts again. I feel like there is nothing predictable about American News cycles anymore other than the fact that the cuckoo pops out of the clock reliably every friday night. Thats one thing you can count on. Its friday. Things are nuts. Tonight is no exception. Tonight the cuckoo has popped out of the clock. An...

I mean, if you breached that, it's hard to see that is a resignation issue necessarily. so, i do think... and i quite often see that the reason i resigned was because the prime minister would not sack priti patel. i mean, that's not the case. i put my view to the prime minister that the home secretary had breached the ministerial code. it was then up to the prime minister to what decisions he took as a result of it. the issue for me is he rejected the advice that she had breached the code and it wasn't that he hadn't sacked her or anything — that was entirely up to him. do you think priti pa...
