Since mid afternoon across parts of the delmarva including Southern Maryland its snowing now in Southern Maryland, this will be the case into early tomorrow morning, probably not arriving in the dc metro until after midnight, so friday night plans is find but youll be waking up to snowfalling saturday morning, it makes it a liquid less panicky. Can accumulations about two to four inch, the further south and east you go, mixing will be an issue, but for the sweet spot some maryland, four to six locally maybe more, snow will come to a close by mid afternoon tomorrow. Local radar showing where the purple where the snow is falling, theres a very sharp cutoff line south and east of fredericksburg. Put when you get to and east. Its snowing parts of our area will it will take awhile for the snow to reach us late tonight into early saturday morning. Snowfall also as we go through tomorrow, will range again from that two to four, the wet r wet slushy snow mainly on agrees surface, i think the majors will largely be ok. Dusting north and west along 81 and its that area if you draw a line from virginia all the way the up through dover delaware, four to six inch, thats what were expecting, much through the roast evening including at 8 00 p. M. On fox 5 plus. The fox 5 forecast always at your finger prints, track the snow on mobile ap, also send us your snow pictures using the fox 5 snow day. We done it once again, we have survived a roller coaster week on the hill two law makers resigned three at this time sorry ive lost count, government should go was overted. President trump recognized and we learned more about the russia probe. Lets bring in our panel, chuck rocha and president of solidarity strategies, i didnt want the to say anything, gentlemen, good to see you both tonight. Lets Start Talking about the issue that has been engulfing dc, the harassment scandals going on, we had trent franks step down decided today it will happen immediately. Al frank ken, john co n y e r s i had to check my twitter feed. I knew exactly what i said isnt going to be five minutes old. I dont know how you keep up with being able to report. Not only do we find out theyre different people involved each day, and theres resignations that follow from that, but we also have to kind of keep track of the being leveled at these congress men and senator, it runs the gamut to navigate that without the due process that is usually used that these situations to figure out why these resignations are being called for is a tricky business. What is your response to that . What do you think ive been doing campaigns 27 years and its kind of a very unique time i think its actually a good time and a learning moment for everybody no matter what party youre in, i like to see that people are speaking out women are being empowered like they never have before, we should be having this conversation on capitol hill. I think the congress men and senators and they thought they were not responsible other than making the laws, i think this is a good time and a learning experience, its a really good learning experience for a lot of men out there and a lot of men and powerful positions. So i think that we can make most of this, i hate to see that everyone gets measured in the same bask or the same theres lots of differences, if we use this as a learning moment, i believe a lot can come out of it we heard yesterday when al franken was on the senate floor, bringing up roy moore and we have the big election coming up tuesday, jason, the president is down in pens cola, will speak down there today. It looks like moore is, where things were not looking good for him for awhile, looks like hes back on the up and up. I think so, one thing i think is its factor the more that cnn and the New York Times and the Washington Post writes about how alabama ought to choose and who they ought to choose, the moore theyre sort of driving people to roy moore they do not like outside actors involved in local politics. But i also think that you raise a point about franken bringing up moore on the floor, i dont know what that was, was anaanja . Saying im going to resign, it was curious, of course, now we find one of his accusers forged it wasnt she add add notation, we cant say she forged it because that has not been proven, its its a forged entry of a date that was added to an original signature, so call it what you will. But i believe that this is, what i mean by these details come out. Drip be drip, drip, and to sort of render a judgment on one thing, you dont know because we really dont know what all the facts are. Rebuttal before we move on. The facts are that it was his signature and it was his handwriting. She added a date at the end. We shouldnt be making excuses for grown men trying to take advantage of young women. Big news was the signature, the funding bill at least for to weeks. Yes that is as well. Jerusalem, i wanted to talk aboutha take on that, what the president did, has now had ramifications world wide, theres a lot of hatred being stirred up for america, theres a lot of protests happening flags burning, people you know, destroying poseds of trump. Let me start with you, jason, do you think this was the smart move to be making right now . Well, the fact of the matter is that president after president after president including the entire congress voted to make jerusalem the capitol and they never acted on it. They left it collectively dust and when you look at the evidence through all of the years, it really hasnt made much of a difference in the peace process. So what i believe the president is trying to do here is move the needle and start the conversation from a fresh perspective. And i believe that thats going to ultimately something that will be helpful because no measures that have been done previously by kicking the road and not Pay Attention and take knowing position on it with thein stability we got issues with north korea, this seems like another thing to throw fuel on the fire what is your thought i know were ring out of time its divisive, the great negotiater and deal maker donald trump is, you could went in and try to bring groups together and figure a solution to try to keep these people over there if killing each other like theyve been doing hundreds of years. Jason meet and chuck, good seeing you guy paul manafort, special counsel released a cash of documents showing manafort was heavily involved in getting a piece for a long time russian colleague while under house arrest, he wanted to get the piece pushed to influence opinion about his Political Consulting work if ukraine, hes accused of money laurndzing and other financial crimes lets talk about the face of the gop. President trump was the unlikely candidate whos changing wait people inside and outside of washington see the party. Comment or shawn steal joins us. I say its not our parents Republican Party theres the left is always unsatisfied when theyre out of power. Right now, the democratic parties Regional Party for the two coasts. And the great swath, the Middle America is completely with Republican Party with nearly 37 to, 38 governors, more than half the Legislature Legislature legislature, theyre very aggressive in trying to find fall. Not every single republican that calls himself a republican is my friend but its a coalition, but trying to call them white supremists is the road that any that any opponent can resort to. When you start calling people nazis you lot of the argument you have that and you say other people saying the progressives and liberals hate america. Somewhere in the middle. By the way, are we going to go see shawn here . Unfortunately shawn were hearing you we dont see you. She had some issues there, just seems like is there some room for company co lessons on both sides where you can get people to agree on something. We seen this radical pour lumbarsation takes place, certainly obama he said he was going to transform america and indeed, he did, politicized the fbi, he made america a laughing stock throughout the world. Betrayed israel. He contracted many levels and ce walked away from the working class, he created a great environment for republicans, but when you take the Democratic Party when you have an antisemitic from congressman ellis from minnesota. What proof do you have hes an antisemitic, sir can you hear us let me tell you, you have a lot more conservatives in the Republican Party than there used to be, moderates are disappearing. All right. You didnt you didnt answer the question. I said when you said, keith ellis you said he was antisemitic, what proof do you have . Hes a muslim not because hes a muslim im just pointing out what is where you are proof most muslims are not antisemitic. Ellison has been an associate or far con whos wellknown antisemitic. Hes apologized for far con hes been closely identified with him and never so ellison got himself a particular problem youre saying guilt by association no. Its guilt by because its volunteering association, and its enthusiastic is association. I wouldnt want to be associated with anybody like that. Right, left or center. Shawn steel, comment tator. Well show you how you can show your generosity in 2018, back after this. This new day looks nothing like yesterday. Trails are covered. Paths arent what they used to be.

It will be different this year, how companies are creating boundaries this holiday season. Christmas parties. This is for you. Employers have been forced to take a look at misconduct allegations in the workplace, good to see you . Good to see you all a thank you i got to tell you i believe we saw a lot of companies doing away with the holiday parties during the great recession. This is a whole wrinkle to the aspect. I think these parties are a great way to show employees that you connect with them and trust them and to show how much you appreciate them. What do you think, how its going to look different this year or what are the recommendations at least for some of these employees going into the Christmas Parties i think, you know, kand managers need to emphasize Mutual Respect and how important coworkers are in the workplace and personal lives. Its important to be connected. You talk about those boundaries but i believe another hot topic any time talk about any sort of party is the concept of alcohol, do you serve it not serve it . I dont remember any holiday Christmas Parties for worked that involved alcohol but to each their own, i suppose yeah, again, i think alcohol doesnt create problems. It is a sorts of reduces peoples self regulation in way and allows some of those problems that may exist in the workplace to come out. So again, i think companies have to Pay Attention and develop a culture of respect were all in this together you should see realize that there are regulation as the work that you need to follow and stick to the rules as well. Yeah, absolutely. I think thats why, again, its a great idea to have them. And you know, more fun venues invite spouses, even families and really allow employees to connect with one another on a personal level and that will take care of the bad behavior most thank you so much. William becker. Im so sorry. Thats quite all right. Thank you so much. Where is the Virginia TechChristmas Party this year, by the way we had it the other day at a restaurant. No alcohol was served but also very friendly, and a lot of fun. Thank you. Thank you. Where is the gift . It was empty. I dont want your empty gift.
