Anniversary dinner at Esca in STL. So delicious. Obviously they respect the butter. Anazing Mediterranean food by the great Ben Poremba. On Delmar. Try it.

Happy 22nd Anniversary to my best friend!

With apologies for my hoarse voice today: “It is amazing to me how solid the cult is.” On a new episode of How to Win 2024, Jennifer Palmieri and I slam the GOP’s reaction to Donald Trump being named an unindicted co-conspirator in ANOTHER criminal case. Click here to listen:…

No words. (Btw BOTH MO Senators voted with Putin and Marge yesterday)

Russian State TV Gushes Over Marjorie Taylor Greene: 'A Beauty' newsweek.com/marjorie-taylo…

.Claire McCaskill: 'A smart defense attorney who had a normal client, would've stood up and said hey, he's made some mistakes, but this is not a felony... These defense attorneys can't do that because Trump won't let them. They've got to say he's perfect, they've got to lie.'

It’s early in the heartland but coffee is hot. Morning Joe in a few minutes.

He was a really good guy. Best friend of working people, funny, kind, and a damn good lawyer. My sympathy to Kathleen Madigan and the entire Madigan family.

So stupid.

Joining Deadline White House at the top of the hour. Got fresh baked blueberry scones under the dome. Perfect with my cuppa tea.

Just a couple of old prosecutors nerding out….Jennifer Palmieri and I thank you Joyce!! It was great.

On a new episode of 'How to Win 2024,' Joyce Alene joins Jennifer Palmieri and me to discuss the first week of Trump's trial and how she thinks the newly-seated jury will react to Trump's 'shenanigans'. Click here to listen: link.chtbl.com/htw_sc

It is Friday and time for another turn on Morning Joe at the top of the hour.

Joining MSNBC this afternoon to do a little play by play and commentary on the Mayorkas impeachment goings on.

How many ways can Trump fleece his supporters? Many. From WaPo…”As a business, Trump Media has largely underwhelmed: The company lost $58 million last year on $4 million in revenue, less than the average Chick-fil-A franchise, even as it paid out millions in executive salaries,…

Ok. Almost go time for Deadline White House And no, no baked goods today. Sorry. I’m in the library.

In my state an 11 year old who has been assaulted and raped for months, and threatened her to keep her silent, is forced to give birth to her father’s child. That’s “is states”.

This tweet is an extraordinary exhibition of dishonesty: It is Mike Johnson who has appeased Russia and Iran for many months, by refusing to allow the House to vote on a bill that could provide weapons to defend against both of them.

More Americans voted AGAINST this fool than any other president in history - 81 million. And that was before J6, Roe overturned, election denial, liable in a sex assault & fraud case, and 4 criminal indictments. There has never been a president hated by more Americans than Trump.

'What's happening in this country and the progress around freedom and equality? We're going back to the Dark Ages. It's a pattern, and people need to pay attention.'
