NBC Nghtly News gave good coverage of today's hearings.

Democrats focusing on Trump and Russia, Republicans on leaks. Then they focused on all of Trump's outlandish statements, focusing on how it brings into question whether citizens can trust him.

It was good until Tom Brokaw gave his two cents talking about how it's a young administration, they've gotten some good things done, we don't know what if anything will even be revealed, blah blah blah. F U Brokaw.

They said there seemed to be two hearings going on, simultaneously.

I watch CBS Evening news on DVR so will let you know how they reported it.

How seasoned does an administration have to be before they're responsible for their own outright lying and broken trust with the American people? Unbelievable! Telling the truth is something you learn before you're out of kindergarten. If you think a 70-year-old man is suddenly going to leave off lying of his own accord, you're mind-bogglingly naive.

Once in a awhile he would get his hackles up about real injustice-but that didn't detract from his core.
