white house and that controlling the president s tweets is not one of them. and we re following major new policy decisions from the trump administration. the iron nuclear deal and the president s back to back blows to obamacare. morning joe is coming right back. liberty mutual saved us almost eight hundred dollars when we switched our auto and home insurance. liberty did what? yeah, they saved us a ton, which gave us a little wiggle room in our budget. wish our insurance did that. then we could get a real babysitter instead of your brother.
