Angle. This is what its come to. The once revered in New York Times, the paper of record has now become the paper of rumor. As part of its unrelenting vendetta against President Trump the times today published a column by someone whom they do not identify. The senior trump staffer under the cloak of anonymity spins a wildly unflattering tale of a president supposedly unhinged from reality making impulsive decisions that supposedly blindside and frustrate, top officials and damage control. Of course, almost on cue, the press went wild. In a stunning new oped in the New York Times, Top Trump Administration official excoriates the president and reveals a resistance locked within the trump team trying to protect the country from the commander in chief.

All in starts right now. Good evening from new york. Im chris hayes. It was a big day for the future of american democracy. We will get to that significant action in a moment, but before we do, just give me a second to go back to the context of what happened in the last election. I think it has been obscured by the sabotage and disinformation and violent insurrection unlike anything weve seen in the history of the country stoked by the former president. Remember this, last november, right, once in a cent ray pandemic, we got a glimpse of what a full or fuller participation version of our democracy would look like because due to the pandemic, state after state, jurisdiction after jurisdiction, and i should note this is both democratic and republican there were fights over this. But across the board, more or less on the whole in the aggregate, all these places did something praise worthy and novel. They took steps to make it easier to vote.
