Theres a lot there. That made mcconnell nervous. He wanted one of the two short listers with much, much less successful records because he wants it done by september. The speck haitian that i was referring to, the kavanaugh edition to the list from which President Trump was reportedly choosing, that it may have been designed to encourage Justice Kennedy to retire. I think the predictability. The fact that george w. Bush would have picked him, ted cruz, mitt romney would have picked him, tells you this would have been done by the heritage society, theyve almost entirely control the process. Typical traditional pick. This is not an alarming or whacky pick. This is the live shot that youre seeing is the east room. Were expecting the president to arrive essentially now to make this nomination. Again, nbc news reporting that the nominee will be judge Brett Kavanaugh. My fellow americans, tonight i speak to you from the east room of the white house regarding one of the most profound responsi
Next up, all of the president s rage. Its day four into the hunt for the anonymous author, separating the deniers from the liars. Well, i could think of four or five, mostly people either i dont like or respect. Its a brilliant move by this white house that were worried about who it is and not what this person said. President ial showdown, past and present. Its obama versus trump. How nasty could the elections get . I hope the last two years have collected that impression. Isnt this much more exciting than listening to president obama . Plus a new storm brewing. The porn star is talking. Is there something that you know now and we way know soon that could bring down this presidency . Just a little bit from now a conversation with her attorney michael avenatti. Well get to that at this hour, the search reportedly intensifies for the Senior Administration official who wrote that the New York Times oped. It remains to be seen just how far the president will go to seek out this person. Hes
Andrew napolitano. Judge napolitano best intro in the business, ms. Falconer. Harris thank you, judge. Flynns lawyers claimed the fbi told their client that he didnt need a lawyer present, and they never warned him not to live. But today, when judge sullivan asked the attorney if you believed his client was entrapped, the answer was no. Last week, Robert Mueller submitted documents to the judge detailing how the interview was conducted, and blasted general flynn over his attorneys claim that said he chose to lie but still recommended no jail time for flynn. Resident trump this morning tweeted this. Good luck today in court to general Michael Flynn. Will be interesting to see what he has to say despite tremendous pressure being put on him about russian collusion in our great and obviously highly successful political campaign. There was no collusion that, from the president. Meanwhile, harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz agrees with the claims about the fbi conduct. Watch it. I think t
House speaker over the state of Union Address. If kevin corke is at the white house with the president s decision on what its going to take for the two sites to come to the agreement. We start off tonight with our chief Congressional Correspondent mike emanuel at capitol hill and the senates thumbs down on ending the shutdown. Speaker nancy pelosi just told reporters shes not entirely sure what the president s requesting in terms of what the white house as described in terms of a large down payment on the border wall. Other democrats suggest that could be trouble in terms of talks to reopen the government. Boats today in the senate seemed designed to show all is necessary, senators on both sides are signaling theyve had enough. To my colleagues on the other side of the aisle, if you dont like the provisions that have been laid down, then lets work them through, lets get to yes. This is all manmade, this is turning not only into a catastrophe, its turning into an emergency. Won the sena
Walls save lives. You know how he said democrats are clapping back . Thats literally and verbally. Listen. He did so by his fear mongering on migrants. 364 days of the last year hes divisive. We hope this oneday speech will, if it emphasizes some kind of comedy will be more than a day. My colleague Kristen Welker is at the white house. I understood we heard again from pelosi in the last couple minute. I want to talk about the response this morning from the president s allies. No surprise. They loved his speech. Reporter loved his speech, then a theyre defending it pointing out the moments of bipartisanship and defending those moments in which the president was a little bit more defiant. One of those key moments did come when he was talking about the investigation swirling around him. Essentially what you just played there, that there cant be any movement, any legislation, any work done in washington while these investigations are swirling around, so it really amounted to somewhat of a
