I'm very excited to welcome Senator John Ossoff from Georgia to LA to our studio here.
It's great to see you.
Thank you for having me.
You know, slow news year.
It's good to have you in the studio.
Okay, so let's just get into it.
So earlier this week, MSNBC reported that the Justice Department is planning to indict former FBI Director Jim Comey for allegedly lying to Congress.
This announcement came a couple days after Trump fired the U.S.
Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia and installed his own personal attorney, someone named Lindsey Halligan.
who I believe ABC News reported was presented with a memo recommending she declined to bring charges, but it sounds like she's going to pursue them anyway.
She has no prosecutorial experience.
It kind of tells you everything you need to know, I think.

In other legal news, Trump accused United Nations employees of sabotaging his UN visit because someone briefly turned off an escalator.
His surrogates are suggesting this was a grave assault on the president and first lady, and Trump himself tweeted, the people that did it should be arrested, end quote.
To the best of your knowledge, is it a crime to turn off an escalator?
I'll have to give that some consideration.
