that gives you enough time to make it all the way over to this studio, which is it s like a coin toss, in a way. [laughter] it s not a baseball. it s like a coin toss. i have time for one cocktail to be right back. but rachel, i have a couple of news things about what s gonna happen tomorrow. number one, you would really like this, donald trump rehearsed his plea on a boston radio show tonight. and we are gonna bring you that, what he is gonna say, when he is asked how he pleads. but there is this from the magistrate who s handling it tomorrow, who was the one who issued the first warrant in the first place, judge cannon doesn t come into it yet. and he is basically saying that he s just gonna live by the local rules of how what contains the media in these situations. he doesn t feel he is in a position to change that for tomorrow. so what that means is he is gonna follow the local rule there in the federal court in miami that prohibits all forms of photographing, audio
like something is going on in the news today, doesn t this remind me of something else? yes, it does, something that might seem unprecedented, like we ve never faced something like this before in the news. it turns out more often than it, it does have an antecedent in history. the very first episode dropped today. it is about something that s very much like january 6th that happened before. i would have more to say about this later on this hour. but chris is right, it s just drop. today we are super excited about it. that s all still to come, it s called rachel maddow presents deja news . all right, so, here s what it said when they finally showed what they had to the public. this was from the u.s. justice department at the time. quote, the following statement is respectfully submitted to the court by the government at the arraignment of the defendant. it constitutes a detailed resuscitation of the facts and evidence developed by the investigation to date. that presentation
so, we ve never had at federally indicted former president before. we are in new territory now, that means we have no idea exactly what to expect tomorrow, when donald trump is scheduled to make his first court appearance in miami. we re gonna have special coverage tomorrow on msnbc, starting at ten a.m.. tomorrow evening, i will be back with you for a primetime special coverage, that is from eight pm to ten pm eastern. i will see you then. that s gonna do it for me for a few minutes, before i join the last word with lawrence o donnell as well. good evening, lawrence. good evening, rachel. i am so excited to be able to have you come over here. me too. and andrew weissmann is gonna be the first guest in the studio. he s actually on his way at the moment. so, we have to do that business.
