You look at the time line, you look at the connections with russia. You look at the statements they made, willie, during the transition and in the early parts of their presidency and the lies just keep falling one after another after other and after another. We will obviously be covering that story this morning, but also, willie, a story that you first brought up yesterday morning, the shock waves from this Donna Brazile book thats coming out. She goes after Hillary Clinton for basically losing the campaign, puts the blame squarely on her. She goes after barack obama for bankrupting the party and the dnc for rigging the election.
