Ahead, we are joined by the chief Congressional Correspondent from the Washington Examiner, great to have you with us. Guest good morning. Host lets leap ahead to january and the two runoff races in georgia, the race against the incumbent senator david perdue any other race with senator Kelly Loeffler. Have we ever seen to Senate Runoff races in any state before . Guest not my history of covering congress. Its really unusual. Its also unusual in georgia that the race has ended up in runoff territory.

I have to mean how it work. Im. Germany has criticized china for the dismissal of 4 prodemocracy opposition. Politicians in hong kongs parliament. Several of their fellow lawmakers also resigned in solidarity after the Chinese Parliament passed a law allowing the islands chief executive to expel legislators without going through the courts. Budging has defended the legislation as necessary to uphold the rule of law. Opponents say it spells the end of the territories fight for democratic rights. Who stand out way back. They were the last remaining prodemocracy lawmakers in hong kong. Now they are resigning in solidarity with their colleagues who were deemed threats to National Security by beijing. It is yet another blow for their prodemocracy movement or to go that they got all part of the decision made by the National Peoples congress today. It is extremely ridiculous, it shows that the Central Government has completely given up the basic law and given up one country 2 systems. Dennis
