Counts. Another one for obstruction of justice. Bob mcdonnell becomes the first governor or former governor in the history of virginia to be convicted of a crime and his wife becomes the first former first lady to suffer the same fate. Late they are morning we talk about whether the verdict could inspire similar prosecutions elsewhere. And the name Chris Christie comes to mind wooe. Well get into it later with a former prosecutor. For now we dig deep near why and how the jury reached the verdict that it reached. Last night one of the mcdonnell jurors, kathleen carmody. Told rach Rachel Maddow what they thought of the defense, that they couldnt conspire because the marriage was in bad shape. I did not doubt there was strain in the marriage and stress. And that mrs. Mcdonnell was having a difficult time adjusting as first lady of virginia. However, they remained under the same roof during all this time up until the time of the trial. Were under the same roof. They vacationed together. We
Responsibilities. From what i recall, george was a low level volunteer who might have attended a meeting of the Foreign Policy advisory team. The one meeting that took place. George papadopoulos, the violation of the law was the collusion and cooperation. On the issue of the volunteer quick, who else were volunteers . Don jr. , eric, ivanka. Plea deal now details the clearest evidence yet of links between the Trump Campaign and russian officials. That is a huge break in the russia investigation even if we dont know how high the problems go. The papadopoulos information has the one keyword that should frighten everybody in the white house. That keyword is guilty. Were you in email chains with papadopoulos . Probably a few, yeah. Were you in email chains with him about russia . It may have come up from time to time. All they were indicted long before they ever met donald trump or had any association with the campaign. There is no conversation regarding firing Robert Mueller. I have zero
How bad the snow can get. Alicia acuna is in denver on why the holiday getaway could make matters worse. We begin with rick. Hi, rick. Really interesting storm set up for us across a big part of the northeast. Iowa, parts of missouri, illinois, wisconsin, minnesota. You get the idea. Thats the big piece of energy that will pull up moisture from the south and watch for extreme snowfall totals. We have winter storm warnings from south dakota, kansas, stretching through maine. So its a really big swath of area here. Looking at heavy snow. The Southern Side of this will be rainy. Could be seeing flooding with this line of storms moving through. We could be watching Severe Weather breakout tomorrow on the Southern Side of this as well. Go to the north. Its right on the north side of the ohio river. Well be seeing the transition into snow. Eventually in across parts of the northeast throughout tomorrow night and into the day on sunday. By the time this is gone, which will happen sunday after
Paycheck . Eric well, the president s expected announcement comes, of course, as there have been new developments south of the border. Hundreds more Central American migrants are on the move, were told, heading toward our country from mexico and the guatemala Mexican Border gates were temporarily left open. The president reacting to that earlier today. I think itll be an important statement having to do with the, as you know, caravans are coming up. They have a big one coming up now. Im disappointed that mexico is not stopping them. I mean, mexico seems, unfortunately, powerless to stop them. Many got through. They broke through the mexican area where, in theory, they were guarded, and they werent so well guarded. So you have a lot of people in caravans coming up. If we had a wall, we wouldnt have a problem, but we dont. We have too many open areas. The walls that we fixed and the walls that we built hold beautifully, but we have a lot of open areas, and its too bad. Now, the previous
