For the day tomorrow. And with that, he left. Spokesman for saiu had been telling us all day and into the night they would be coming out here by 10 00 to let bart riders know what was going to be happening tomorrow. As late as 10 00, the spokesman i was speaking to said they should be out shortly. At about 10 30, the federal mediator came out instead of the spokesperson. Does that mean anything . Who knows. If anything happens, you look at it, try to come up with some kind of reading, what does it mean . We dont know. We do know that as of right now. The unions are still in this build i building behind me and they are talking and most importantly, bart trains will be running tomorrow. Terry mcsweeney, nbc bay area news. Thank you, terry. Something else we know, the threat of the strikes is keeping riders off the trains. The numbers proved that people are finding other ways to get around. Over the past few days, ridership is down 85,000 trips from the average. Now, for the latest update
And the battle between two islamist secretaislam ist sects are nothing for americans to interject themselves into.

I think one of the interesting elements that everyone is watching is should they try and take baghdad. Should they really try and destroy as they want to two of the most holy shiite holy sites. That then many people say is a suicidal act by isis and it basically awakeneds a storm in the region that will be hard to shut down because it basically puts them at the tip of a population. They are winning right now because they are running into territories that are overwhelmingly sunni and they are throwing off the governorsance that has been tilted since maliki. Those two things are working together. We had, think in the Washington Post yesterday, discussion of some of the brigade kmaft comma group who
Care system. Those costs have had a tremendous effect on what the United States had so these are real debates but it doesnt diminish at all the kind of threat mike rogers said is there. Its why in my view malikis duty in representing the people i disagree that leaving congressman rogers that leaving residual troops would have made a difference in this case. We have a very naive sense that if we send troops in, that somehow the u. S. Still plays parent that all of the other pactors in these complex regions with complex neighborhoods and neighbors that like to medal inside the countries, wont happen. Thats simply not the case. We may need to i dont know how to put it but play with a little bit of humility in these cases and realize that what we need is to try to contain situations. Try to figure out how to get isis limits because i think what hes talking about reaching out to players inside English Speaking countries like the United States and uk and elsewhere and try to activate terrori

This is mtp daily, and for two years and counting, it starts right now. Good evening. Im chuck todd here in new york. Welcome to mtp daily. If the gops Health Care Failure was devastating for the party, some republicans like Lindsey Graham are warning that a failure on taxes could be catastrophic. Theres one thing that is supposed to unify the party more than repealing obamacare its cutting taxes. Folks, the plan they unveiled yesterday sauf to a bit of a rocky start, because what they promise about the plan does not yet seem to match the actual plan released. It was a big problem for President Trump and republicans on health care. And its not going to make this tax issue any easier either. Lets start with tax promise number one. Our framework includes our explicit commitment that tax reform will pro
