And the people here who are either watching their homes and their communities on television or those who have decided to write it out just have a long, long way to go. Florence has slowed down now and its just creeping along, where nearly when you are in an area like this that is the worst of the worst, it only lasts a couple of hours.

Michael cohen devoted more than a decade of his professional life to being the president s attorney and goto fixer. He once said he would take a bullet for donald trump. I said with Michael Cohen and he told me he could barely walk by trump tower because it made him so sad. To look at a place where they spent a decade together working side by side.

Now its time for the last word with lawrence oh dodge. Good evening, lawrence. You know how this show starts at 10 00 or i should say is supposed to start at 10 00 . Mmhmm. And every once in a while it starts 15 seconds later, 30 seconds later. My fault, sorry. And its a pretty organized and ritdialistic thing, and thats the way its supposed to work.
