Up Way Too Early on this thursday morning. Well have coverage of the State Of The Union tonight. Morning joe starts right now. January 6th was a disgrace.

You never know exactly what the judge will want to talk about. We will know about it as soon as we are allowed to. As we said, cameras are not allowed. We will have no live feed as it happens. Nbc is lucky enough that our reporter is one of the few reporters who have been given a seat in the actual courtroom. We will talk with garrett once it is over. We will also get disp
