Office building. Good evening from our nbc news headquarters here in new york. We reached day 777 of the trump administration, and tonight, it brought an explosive turn of events in the case of paul ma that fort. In the case of two prison stenss hell receive in a week, they sentenced Donald Trumps former Campaign Chairman to 47 months in prison. Thats a month shy with four years with a further nine month reduction for time already served. A 47month sentence in this case where muellers prosecutors asked for 19 to 24 years, almost a quarter century in prison for a man days away from turning 70. The Paul Manafort who we usually show at this point in the broadcast in this file video looking robust while walking into and out of court, that Paul Manafort appeared in court today in a wheelchair wearing a green prison jump suit with the words al alexandria inmate and his previous chestnut hair coloring is all gray. Federal judge t. S. Ellis spoke before sentencing and talked about that recomme
Trump is expected to speak in a few hours at the nations top gathering of conservatives. Hes likely to double down on the prevailing line of attack emerging from the political conservative action, decrying democrats socialists and extremists. While she wasnt there the star on and off stage was representative alexandria occasiocortez. Democrats have gone bat crap crazy. That system is socialism.

A gem of a quote. He is a red state democrat who lost a tight race to ted cruz, but that election launched him into the national spotlight. He raised a whopping 80 million. 44 of that money came from out of state. Orourke joins a primary field of more than a dozen Democratic Candidates and he says there is an overrepresentation of white men in government and he will have an administration that reflects the nations diversity. A ferocious socalled bomb cyclone leaving behind a mess in the rockies. About 1100 motorists stranded in colorado. The snow is driven by Hurricane Force winds and had Emergency Personnel in full saving lives mode. Officers were forced to abandon their vehicles and take shelter. And north of denver, state patrol Corporal Daniel groves was hit and killed by a car while assisting a driver whose car had slid off the interstate. There was a huge 100 car pileup.
