Let me start. I will ask admiral myers and general myers the admiral in general to step in. The data that you just described in terms of cost reflects the positive trend that the program is on in terms of driving down we enter the as inservice portion of the program, greater feasibility to the operating and support costs that we are able to attack and were seeing projections come down in that regard and it is all good. The ioc dates set by the Service Chiefs earlier this year that reported to congress, those dates were set with a clear understanding of the requirements and capabilities and what they would need to be as well asthem realistic schedules to go along with them. Both the marine corps and the navy received dates in the 2015 3ft and then 2018 with lots capabilities. With thetand capability will deliver and equally, and more important, maintaining the path that goes beyond the initial capabilities to the continued development of the program. Effort on after great the part of th
Against this canard. It is just not true. Why do you not find out . We went through. We have a lot of people who were critical of npr but were listeners. Most people to criticize it had never heard it. It was just a word on fox news. They never listen to it. We got several listeners who were not supporters. They like to the content, but they were very biased, so we took apart their anecdotal experiences, and we examine them closely for some clues, and then we did some quantitative stock based on pew and other Research Outlets you had attempted to evaluate media, and ira said it changed the way that he was reporting, but i cannot say it changed mine. I know that will in dear me to all of our critics, but we try to disclose exactly who we are in a way that npr as a general rule does not. They like to their hosts to be uninflected in their presentation, and we made a conscious choice, bob and i did, that if we were going to criticize people for not disclosing things, then we would try to

Now, a 17 yearold suspect is in custody on suspicion of firstdegree first degree homicide. A reporter for interviewed the young man he says as the alleged suspect before the shot rang out.

My next guest is media reporter at the daily color and was on the scene last night shelby joins us now. Shall be, obviously this is a very Disturbing Development in this story. What else do we know about what happened . Right now we pretty much know what everybody else knows. I think that the main thing is that there is so much chaos last night when this whole thing happened. There were multiple gunshots, there were it seems to be coming from d
People could not recite the states, the margins. If you could take us on places where the vote is open, places that could conceivably together add up or on their own add up to 270 for joe biden. Lets do that. Lets take a quick look at that march to 270. We dont have alaska and we wont have that for a while. The presumption is that that goes to donald trump. North carolina we wont have for a little while and a put that in trumps column for the moment. This is just an exercise. It doesnt mean that will happen. Lets say that happened in georgia and now were looking at nevada and arizona. At the moment joe biden has the lead in nevada and arizona. If that continues to be the case, there you have joe biden with 270. But we dont know. Because we havent gotten enough votes counted. So lets take those out of play. In fact, take them all out of play and lets look at pennsylvania. If you put that into joe bidens column today, joe biden gets 273 and he wins pennsylvania. If you put it into Donald
After hour gets larger and more sweeping and free from any and all conspiracies to defraud the vote, the times adds this. Quote, the president has also asked aides what republican officials he could call in other battleground states in his effort to prevent the certification of results that would formalize his loss to biden.

The Washington Post pulls back the curtain on the depths of trumps increasingly desperate Misinformation Campaign and the danger of mainlining disinformation into trumps base of support this way. Quote, the conspiracy that machines by dominion, a coloradobased manufacturer, were programmed to rig the election has spread wild on right wing
