Just a reminder, all comment and civility guidelines apply Welcome back to our "Daily" WH Press Briefing! It has been 20 days since the last Presser, on 11/27/2018. This will only be the 4th since Labor Day. Even in a timeline where chaotic news-cycles have become commonplace, the past few weeks have seemed extremely busy. Today's briefing could, rightfully, last hours if everything were to be covered. However, we expect a typically brief SHS briefing, which will likely focus on the current hot topics. Said topics may include: - The looming government shutdown over The Wall
- Today's sentencing of former Trump NSA Michael Flynn, and the recent pleas/sentencing/indictments of various people in Trump's orbit
- Trump issues order to create a new "Space Command"
- McSally picked to hold the vacant AZ Senate seat, previously held by John McCain
- Mick Mulvaney names as Acting Chief of Staff.
- Unstable Stock Markets
- New reports issued detailing Russian Disinformation campaigns against the US
- Trump agrees to shut down his charity
- And so much more…
