And this, according to our friend the historian john meachem was the day the amg of Ronald Reagan officially ended. It was the day Supreme Court Justice Anthony kennedy announced his retirement. And before we go on here, just a few things about Anthony Kennedy. Hes been on the court for 30 years. He was reagans third choice after the first two failed. In the end, reagan went with a northern caliifornian, a conservative, to be sure, but with a libertarian streak. Classically trained at stanford, London School of economics and harvard law, kennedy employed an effortless intellect and a respect for liberty. He was never shocking. He was sometimes surprising, but he was mostly a highly reliable conservative. It should not be forgotten that during the Supreme Court term that just ended today, 14 cases were decided by a 54 vote.

Less than 24 hours after a federal judge sided with congress saying that the committees have a right to see the president s financial records, now the president has already filed his appeal. To try to stop it still. Clearly, a lot of moving parts today. Let

Thats according to the New York Times analysis of trumps taxes, which documented a decade where trump touted his art of the deal, all the while he lost over a billion dollars. And, by the way, thats not an accomplishment. Thats like bad good morning and welcome to morning joe. It is friday, may 10th. Along with joe, willie and me he was not here a half a second ago.
