them into some deep, dark, dangerous places that in part leads to january 6th and the point we make in the op-ed is somewhere in our political space we have to be able to step back and have a conversation with the american people about what they need in order to live a good life, a fulfilled life, and find some room in our political dialog for that bigger, broader, more spiritual conversation. i know that that kind of seems like a silly, frivolous thing on a day like today where we re just trying to keep the government open and operating, but if we don t have the bigger, deeper conversation about meeting with the american people, government is going to become more and more irrelevant. that s the point i m making in that piece. i wrote it with a harvard philosopher who has become sort of a friend and adviser of mine as i try to think about these bigger questions. actually, the word for today, ephemeral, actually fits in well here. because actually it doesn t seem silly. what we re tal
they are watching and waiting. slowly they are starting to repair and getting those essentials. tourists yesterday, mandatory evacuations were put into place at noon. we saw a string of cars heading out of this area. hotels are still open. plan on closing later today. i want to bring in the mayor. good to see you. thanks for stopping by. thank you. . it s a beautiful day right now. a lot of people have their guards down. hallie was saying it s probably a good idea to at least take the day while the weather is nice and prepare for what s to come. . absolutely. we re getting very prepared. that s the word for today and tomorrow even. this is now five years now in a row impact. we have learned how to prepare for the storm.
dana: true but part of the great thing about america is you re allowed to criticize your government. you can do it. you can also tell someone they can leave. jesse: he s not supporting omar. let s make that clear. this is about america first. this is about america first and he believes some of these democrats in the squad are trying to fundamentally or radically the country in a way that the majority of the rest of the country disagrees with strongly. he s targeting them, he s forcing it into a wedge issue and how much solidarity you re going to see in the democratic caucus when it comes to these women who are very radioactive. this is not the first kerfuffle these women have been in. greg: kerfuffle. three times no. capri: the word for today s episode. it s not good for the democrats. looking at these figures that
