brian williams, rachel maddow, chris matthews. rachel, what a six-hour period. >> it's been a remarkable close to this campaign in general. this campaign was going to be one for the record books regardless. we've got somebody running for the first time ever who has zero record of public service, who would be the oldest president inaugural rated if we with wins. we would have the first woman president. they made history by their just being nominated. but to get to the end and have it be this, it is the best analogy i can come up with for what the fbi did is if you were a pilot or a firefighter as you are, or something else, which you needed a physical, go to the dock torks get your physical. the doctor calls your employer and says we drew blood. when you draw blood, you can diagnose all sorts of stuff. all sorts of stuff that can kill you, so i just want you to know, we drew blood. and thep nine days later, your doctor then kaus your would be employer back and says, by the way, we did lock at the blood results and it turns out it's

rachel maddow lost what's left her frazzled mind when donald trump went out for a steak. she said his protocol lapse is a matter of national security. >> it's a matter of tradition, security, national interest. you may recent that you are not allowed to have a private life anymore, but you are not. it's a tradition with a national security basis? kennedy: it does? so how was anyone's security compromised when a guy who hasn't been sworn in yet go ahead out in public for a teak with his family. the left complains about trump's her to tearian impulses. but the desire to know everything he's doing and taking his rogue stakery as betrayal is a bit much. how did that affect your life. i didn't vote for the guy, but you don't see me sobbing like a war widow because i didn't get my way. govern your own damn life. stop focusing on some his tearial future that hasn't materialized. texas congressman james hensarling. former d.c. school commissioner on michelle rei has been named as a potential education secretary, and she is for school choice. this is america. give us choice, potat
