Is there any precedent for these unpresident ial acts . Almost 74 million votes. I have a great panel of historians to discuss that, and the legacy of trumps term in office. An eyeopening discovery that may save your life one day. A way to edit the genetic code itself. A newly minted Nobel Laureate tells me about the promise of crispr. But first, heres my take. More than 150 million americans made their own personal decisions when they voted in this years election, but it is now the unenviable job of commentators to explain the meaning of those choices. At the broadest level its fair to say that the vote was a repudiation of donald trump. President s rarely lose their bids for reelection. Only five in the last 125 years and trump has won as few electoral votes as his nemesis, hillary clinton, did last time and he lost the popular vote by a larger margin than when jimmy carter defeated gerald ford in the wake of watergate. And yet its obvious that the country remains deeply divided. Aft
Joining us to start this off, monica alba, across the street from the white house, and nbc news correspondent Garrett Haake on capitol hill. Lets begin with you. Amid the new controversies and calls for Resignations Swirling around Marjorie Taylor greene, weve just learned that missouri Congresswoman Corey Bush moved her office after she said greene berated her and her staff in a hallway. How long can leaders ignore these issues being brought up by Marjorie Taylor greem . Yeah. A pretty disturbing report there. Marjorie Taylor Greene has responded with a video that she claims is of the incident. A selfie style video in which she can be heard yelling back and forthwith someone who we dont see on camera. So its not entirely clear whats going on here. The lack of response from Republican Leadership is the thing to watch. The resolutions about censure or expulsion. Other things that have been raised in discussions of miss greene are not going to go anywhere unless Republican Leadership dec
I think it was an effective measure. The idea now is we have to hit back hard. We have to hit back strong if were going to finally put this dual crisis of the pandemic and economic payment engendered behind us. With respect to larrys point, one thing is just wrong which is our team is dismissive of inflationary risks. We have constantly argued the risks of doing too little are far greater than the risk of going big. Providing families and businesses with the relief they need to put this virus behind us. I want to quote Jerome Powell who strongly reiterated this view the other day. I think it was a week or so ago that inflationary risks are also asymmetric. He said, im much more worry about falling short of a complete recovery and losing peoples careers and lives they built because they dont get back to work in time. Im more concerned about the damage that will do, not just to their lives but to the United States economy, to the productive capacity of the economy. Im more concerned abou

Well have more on all of that for you in a moment. Meantime, over on capitol hill, some folks may be experiencing a case of whiplash. Congresswoman Majorie Taylor greene fresh off getting booted from her House Committees sounding a whole lot different today than the Majorie Taylor greene we heard yesterday when she was trying to save her place on those committees, saying 9 11 absolutely did happen and School Shootings were absolutely real. Note, though
House Impeachment Managers say that former President Trump will have to testify under oath including crossexamination by democrats before or during his Impeachment Trial next week. If he declines to testify they say we reserve and any and rights to establish at trial that your refusal to testify infers a strong adverse influence about your action or inaction on january 6th, 2021. They want an answer by 5 00 p. M. On friday. Also congresswoman greene took to the house floor and delivered what could be best described as some extraordinary remarks. Things we have never quite heard before. Take a listen. If it werent for the Facebook Post and comments that i liked in 2018, i would not be standing here today and you could not point a finger and accuse me of anything wrong. Later in 2018 when i started finding misinformation, lies, things not true in these qanon posts i stopped believing it. School shootings are absolutely real. I also want to tale you that 9 11 absolutely happened. Things w
