i will explain what that meant. also, another trump aid headed to prison. a day to turn himself in but we have that story later this hour and why it matters. that bannon will join convicted felon peter navarro in prison but that is coming up plus a report on president biden marking the important d-day anniversary. why is it important to the president, to our nation and some of the threats and issues we face now. as i mentioned, by the end of this hour, the return of kermit the frog. why? legendary director ron howard makes his debut and how he is teaming up with kermit and the whole gang. i invite you to get comfortable for that hour. we have a lot of news tonight. and some fun. our top story draws on a long history of tradition of respecting jury verdicts that is key to understanding what we are witnessing right now, dangerous and largely unprecedented attacks on jury verdicts from the highest levels of the government that we are seeing. it has been about one week are abou
discuss their whole advocacy and their explanations of those january 6th plans to overturn trump s loss but they touched on what navarro told me on this program. no. when you re on msnbc by the way, i m very proud melbourne is a trial lawyer. that is when you have to go back you have to get up in his face and refuted. trying to get harvard faculty lamp it no, we are not reasonable men. we are unreasonable. unreasonable men change history. we are unreasonable this is not some debate. those two individuals, now, slated to be in federal prison at the same time for the same charge. bannon ordered by this judge to report in on july 1st for a four month sentence. that means donald trump s money 16 campaign chair, bannon, the guy in charge, will not be in prison for most of the 2024
lover, the dreamer and me we are joined now by ron howard, the legendary director, filmmaker and producer he has got a new project out. jim henson: idea man. kermit, the muppets, summit sesame street and a whole lot more. thanks for being here. a pleasure. you tell jim henson s story. we learned that some of what he was making was not necessarily only going to be designed for kids. most of it did in the beginning. although, boy it. it s interesting, he wasn t interested in puppets. he was a young creative guy in mississippi. then moved closer to washington. and he just loved television. and he just wanted to find a way to get on television. we have these hilarious interviews that orson welles did on all people, and out of it, you learn that he never even
kids, so kids might have a little piece of it as they grow up? i think it means so much. and of course, when sesame street came along, it was revolutionary because oh, there were some terrific shows and captain kangaroo and romper room and things like that that were aimed at kids and trying to sort of, you know, inspire them to play and be thoughtful and those kinds of things. but they were super gentle. they skewed very young. and when they got jim henson involved with sesame street, here was somebody who wanted to be funny. he wanted to be entertaining. he wanted to use his puppets in that way and didn t necessarily think of himself as an educator, but he had a great heart. but he had been in the commercial business for 15 years. and he used a lot of the sensibilities of selling ideas which he had learned to do, didn t particularly love doing
played with puppets as a kid, but that was a way in to the local television station. he took it, created his own puppets. and you know, he was a very introverted guy. he became an extrovert when he had a puppet on his hand. he was funny, satirical, but really accessible, and he just grew his talent. you know, with puppetry, and he was also very experimental and trying to push the boundaries of what movies could be as well. i watched the doc last night, and one thing that comes through is this a person who is really soulful, and it comes through as very soft and playful and creative in ways that the modern world, we have this world, people are creatives. a lot of this is capitalist driven, imitation. i want to look at sesame street, as it grew, it was so embraced. you had icons from all aspects
