boxes. and someone who helped trump engineer the way in which he hid document from the department. he too could be a witness here, he hasn t yet testified before a grand jury to the best of our understanding. all i know is, we re getting a ton of new reporting on this case. which suggests that maybe more people know what s going on in it, which suggests maybe it is indeed coming to a close. which means, clear calendars, everybody. tali farhadian weinstein and lisa reuben, thank you both for your time tonight. thanks, alex. we have a lot to get to tonight, including a big development in the other special counsel investigation into donald trump. involving trump whisper, steve bannon. that is next. plus, the hazards of climate change were made not only visible, but physically palpable for much of the united states today. guess what republicans were doing? that s coming up.
