for joining us this hour, i m alicia menendez, alex has the night off. this is something that has happened every day, like clockwork frizzling as many of us can remember. the white house sends out to the media something called the daily guidance. it is a basic schedule for the president that day. here s a recent one for president biden. at the top, there are a few paragraphs describing what the presidents day will entail, and below, that there is a schedule of the major events planned, getting the intelligence briefing, major meetings, timing of any travel the president will do. they put it out so that the price can play in its coverage, and so you, the american people, can know the basic aligned of what our president is doing on any given day. this is something done every day, every white house, under every president. just a couple weeks before the end of donald trump s presidency, something truly weird happened. do you remember this? the white house started issuing daily gu
