So, here’s my plea to both #msnbc and @maddow.msnbc.com Please extend your return to 5 nights of programming past Trump’s first 100 days. I know there are other things you want to do. I know this must me physically and mentally draining. But I think you are uniquely suited to meet this moment. 3/3

Rachel also has an unparalleled understanding of history that is invaluable at this time. While I have a deep respect and belief in the ability of her colleagues, I think she and this moment in history were made for each other. 2/3

As a lawyer, I agree to an extent. When the legislative branch is unable (or unwilling) to do its part to hold the executive branch accountable, that leaves the courts as the only option. Courts are capable of responding to a crisis, maybe even multiple crises. It’s the volume that is the problem.
