We're ready to take this head on. And you know, as Norm and others on set there with you know, we made a very conscious decision. My family made a decision to fight back against this because we knew that if we didn't, it would make it that much easier to go after people.So, we're ready for this fight. But that said, I think it's really important to give people the insight into what it's like. Not so that they have personal sympathy for me, but so that they understand how replicable this is to other people.A ...

I'm joined now by leader Hakee Jeff, Democrat of New York, the man leading those negotiations for his party. Um, Congressman, first let me just start at at a sort of fact level so I understand where the things are. Are there any active negotiations happening between anyone in the two parties in either House of Congress or with the White House about some kind of negotiated deal that would reopen the government? Unfortunately, Chris, there are no active negotiations. And that's because Republicans have basica ...

I h ...

Trump is still demanding restitution for one of those people who were charged for their role in January 6th himself. You're really not going to believe this one. And if you haven't encountered it yet, I'll read from the New York Times.Here we go.

They're very dishonest people. I think they're crooked as hell and uh maybe they have to pay a price for that. I I believe they are truly bad people and dishonest people.So, whatever happens happens. >> Hi again, everybody. It's now 5:00 in New York.Those comments made by Donald Trump about former FBI director Jim Comey and former director of the CIA John Brennan land a little differently after the series of political indictments of several of Donald Trump's critics, including that of Jim Comey himself.

I hate to say this, but you are looking at a live picture of something that's actually happening. The destruction of the east wing of the White House. Demolition taking place right now at the White House on Donald Trump's orders to make space for Donald Trump's 90,000 square foot ballroom.That number doesn't even make sense if you're a human living on Earth One, but it is bigger than everything that is on the complex now. Almost twice as big. Our colleague Von Hillyard first reported on Monday on this show ...

As we come on the air, there are 800,000 people in the state of Arizona who are right now being deprived of full representation in Congress thanks to House Speaker Mike Johnson's refusal to swear in their congresswoman elect. Mike Johnson has double and triple and quadrupled down on his refusal to seek Grahala. He is claiming that he's following House traditions of swearing in members only during regular sessions. Except that isn't his own tradition. As with many things MAGA Republican, there's an obvious a ...

Joining us now, former California Senator Barbara Boner, managing editor editor of The Bull Work, and MSNBC contributor Sam Stein, and back with us, Adam Sur. Um, Senator, so the president is he said that he he's not confirmed the dollar amount, the $230 million amount. He did say that if he does get a payout, and he said he wasn't personally pursuing it, but if he does get it, that he would potentially give the money to charity or perhaps to fund that ballroom.But having this be out there and not and not d ...
