It's again the time of the year that everyone has been waiting for, so the customers are in a hurry and in a hurry. First a gift, then to the grocery store, sometimes to clean and even to pack. King Kunin, boxes to the kitchen, soon it starts. Food to the table, snacks to the table and to eat. Then we share the gifts, we repeat the same the next day, but without gifts. Good luck on the birthday, finally and finally try the best time of the year when the piano falls to the ground.

Donald Trump is having a major panic on Wednesday morning as Democratic governors are standing up to him.
Ben Meiselas 0:56
Democrats in the House and Senate are united standing up to him. And he's not able to bully them like he thought he would. So he's lashing out. Here's what Donald Trump is posting this morning. Chicago mayor should be in jail. for failing to protect ICE officers, exclamation point. Governor Pritzker also, yeah, that's pretty normal. The president of the United States calling for the arrest of the mayor of Chicago and the governor of Illinois, how desperate and how pathetic. Governor Pritzker responds right away, I will not back down. Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives, checking his power. What else is left on the path to full blown authoritarianism? Meanwhile, in Portland, Oregon, they're just mocking Donald Trump and Kristi Noem.
Ben Meiselas 1:50
Let me show you what went down last night as more mascot animals came out to the dance party, which Donald Trump is calling war ravaged. This is how you mock an authoritarian. Here, play this clip. out. Earlier this morning, we heard from Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson on CNN, his response to Donald Trump's threat. Well, this would not be the first time that Donald Trump has called for arresting a black man unjustly. It's what Donald Trump does. He's always been a racist. He's always been a criminal. He's always been a sexual abuser. He's always been a felon. Here, play this clip of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson standing up to Donald Trump. Let's

What is causing Donald Trump's panic on Wednesday morning?

Brandon Johnson 2:39
First of all, this president is unstable, unhinged, a double-minded individual that quite frankly is a threat to our democracy. And it's certainly not the first time that Donald Trump has called for the arresting of a black man unjustly. I'm not going anywhere. I'm going to stay firm as the mayor of this amazing city, which was voted nine years in a row, the best big city in America. And we're going to defend all of Chicago.
Yeah, and to be clear, he's also calling for the governor, Jamie Pritzker, to be jailed as well.

Now, there's total disarray amongst MAGA Republicans in the Senate and the House. Quote, I think they are absolutely struggling to figure out how they are going to get out of this disastrous shutdown that Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans are causing to the American people right now. The Politico, and when Politico writes this, you know that things are bad for Republicans because they often write very favorable stories to MAGA. Trump's off script comments cause shutdown headaches for GOP.
Yep.
Ben Meiselas 3:50
They're getting absolutely outmaneuvered by Democrats, but also it's because Democrats are harnessing the power of, get this, the truth. This is a Trump government shutdown.

How are Democratic governors responding to Trump's threats?

Ben Meiselas 4:00
This is a MAGA Mike government shutdown. They wanted to shut this down. They thought they were going to bully the Democrats and rip away American people's health care. But the Democrats and Americans say don't. Do not take away our health care. This is life or death. So Maga Mike came out with new talking points this morning. They went from blaming immigrants and migrants and saying that this was a transgender issue in Peru or whatever the hell they were saying there.
