Late and great justice scalia. This person will possess a top notch legal mind and unwavering commitment to the constitution. And on wavering commitment to the constitution until President Trump wants to personally rewrite it. House Speaker Paul Ryan says trump cannot end birth right citizenship without an executive order. Former spokesperson for president obama put it like this. Trump wants a debate about ending birth right citizenship more than actually doing it. Democrats should say okay, see you in court.

A lastminute trip. But not before the queen of talk tries to talk democrats into voting. Thats right. Oprah winfrey making her 2018 Campaign Debut today with new worries now from both parties that we will actually know a winner in that race until election day. Well talk about our campaign of road warriors out in force again today, blitzing the country. All spread out, as we wake up to a sunny start on this thursday from florida, on the road as well. Lets start with a look at where things stand right now. As the president keeps up his campaign sprint to the finish with stop two of 11 in missouri, new poll out shows democrats have reason to be maybe more optimistic about the house. Look at this Washington Post schar poll. Most competitive house districts around the country and while thats close to the margin of error, the post points out republicans won these districts in 2016. I want to start with Nbcs Kelly Odonnell back at home base in the white house. In a couple of new interviews, t
This is cnn tonight. Im don lemon. President trump employing a last ditch effort to change the conversation days ahead of the midterms attempting to paint a group of migrants, hundreds of miles from the border with a broad and scary brush. And what was billed as a policy speech from the roosevelt room today, the president proposed no actual policies. Listen to what he said. Theres nothing political about a caravan of thousands of people and now others forming pouring up into our country. We have no idea who they are. Did you catch that . The president admitted we have no idea who they are. Why does he keep calling them invaders . If there is nothing political about it, why is the caravan brought up in every Single Campaign appearance the president makes . A slow moving group of asylum seeking is immigrants, some walking with strollers and suitcases, not an invasion. Repeating a lie does not make it truth. With the midterms just five days away, the president is attempting to scare peopl
Hopes with Debbie Wasserman schultz listed as a bogus return address. A pipe bomb like the one found in the mailbox of george soros was found near the home of bill clinton and Hillary Clinton. It was scodiscovered by screene. Then a routine screening of president obamas mail turnedup another explosive device. The package to eric holder was incorrectly addressed and wound up being sent back to Wasserman Schultzs address where it was intercepted by the secret service. The device addressed to brennan, an nbc analyst, was sent to cnns time warner building in the heart of new york city. It was discovered in the mail room and the aftermath played out live on air. These are no longer suspicious packages. The fbi is saying they were rudimentary but functional. That means they were exmoplosiv devices. Excuse me. That sounds like a fire alarm here. The anchors continued reporting on the story until they couldnt any longer. Were going to jump in. Theres a fire alarm here. Were going to be right b
Oprah is one of those for whom for and against is obviously a joke. Theres no against accept in i guess some crazed precincts. I woke up this morning believing that Oprah Winfrey should not be a candidate for anything. Ive always thought that. Im one of those people who thinks theres some training involved here and experience thats necessary, and being a tv star is not that experience. Thats the country we used to live in, apparently. And then i watched her in georgia, and i was stunned at how good she was on the political stage as a politician. Thats what she was today, a really effective highlevel communicating politician. Yeah, and she was good on notes when she was reading for notes, when she was coming in there with sort of prepared remarks. She was really, really, good when she was off her prepairred remarks. And part of it that made people consider her as a potential candidate is how well she said she didnt want to run. Thats kind of like a trifecta. That and dont put on a hat a
