Tomorrow. Now its time for The Last Word with lawrence odonnell. Good evening, lawrence. Good evening, rachel. I have on the Desk Tonight the Book Peril. It seems like every other week, there is a new book of great import. This is by my Count Bob woodwards 14th Book on the presidency and his first book coauthored with Robert Costa. Were going to be discussing it tonight because of the revelations that are now being focused on in some Media Reports about Paul Ryan as Speaker Of The House Consulting Psychiatry papers about narcissistic Personality Disorder to try to figure out how to deal with Donald Trump. Yeah. So Mary Trump, who has made a Lifetime Study both professionally and otherwise of Donald Trump in this problem, is going to take us through what she what would be her perspective on what Paul Ryan must have experienced with Donald Trump. Yeah. Shes the in the venn diagram, shes the only person in the overlap between trained Mental Health professional and lifelong observer from c
Warning came in the form of an unclassified Intelligence Briefing that was shared with state and local authorities. They also reportedly warned about this potential for violence as early as tomorrow and said, quote, In Early September Social Media users discussed storming the u. S. Capitol on the night before the rally, and one user commented on kidnapping an identified member of congress. But they might be disappointed to learn that congress being congress is not in Session Tomorrow or over the weekend. The warning also set into motion, and the capitol is being protected by a 7foot high fence. The entire area, as well as the city itself, has been flooded with Law Enforcement, as you might imagine. Earlier Today House Speaker pelosi and republican Congressman Adam Kinzinger talked about Security Preparations around the capitol. Everybody will be more ready for them. Im pretty confidentwe wont see a repeat of violence. I am confident Law Enforcement is more prepared, but i think its iro
And we are going to challenge it vigorously. Its no longer just about who gets to vote, or make it easier for eligible voters to vote, its about who gets to count the vote. Who gets to count whether or not your vote counted at all. We are facing the most significant test of our democracy since the silver war. The confederates then never breeched the capitol as insurrectionists did on January 6th. Im not saying this to alarm you. Im saying this because you should be alarmed. President also made his most direct attack yet on the Conspiracy Theory that the 2020 election was somehow rife with fraud. In 2020, democracy was put to a test. First by the pandemic, then by a desperate attempt to deny the reality and the results of the election, with recount after recount after recount, Court Case after Court Case, the 2020 election was the most scrutinized election in American History.

These numbers are extraordinary, but the actual details of whats in this legislation, include things people have thought made sense for decades, literally decades but never saw the opportunity. But here we are on the on the Democratsonly Bill tonight, Budget Committee unanimous agreement. That means its going to make it out of the Budget Committee. Mark warner represents what youd probably consider the Manchin Wing of the Budget Committee. Bernie sanders represents the other side of the democratic party. Theyre all in agreement. So, lawrence, on a scale of 0, nothings happening to 100, Joe Biden is signing the legislation where does that put us on the Number Line in terms of how close we are to the beginning . Whats that . Its way up there for this package. The bipartisan package is its own track and is holding together remarkably well. President bidens going to do somethi
happen because neither one of the parties were crazy. trouble is tonight bun team cat one democratic senator says that s true. when you re dealing with crazy, you don t know what s going to happen. you never know what will happen. the consequences are real and serious and it will affect people at homes and in their pocketbooks so i appreciate you re covering this tonight. have yourself a good show lawrence. thank you, ali. back in the day i was running the staff process for the senate finance committee. i had to deal with an i m patient nominee for secretary of treasury. the process was moving quickly but i kept getting messages from him asking what was taking so long and finally, someone close to the nominee has whispered an explain nation to me he wants to sign the money. they get to sign their names to every piece of american paper currency and that is quite a super power unlike any power that anyone else in the government has including the president. secretaries o
