Republicans in Congress broke ranks with the president in an unprecedented way, with one after another coming forward during the day to caution about the dangers of tariffs and plead with Trump to hold off on any action.

(26,060 posts)They decided their tax cuts and judges were more important than the country and now they're stuck standing beside him. Like anyone who gets into donnie's orbit, now they're (and forever will be) covered with his stink.

Nevermind that Putin can nuke the ever-loving fuck out of us. He's more concerned what Alec Baldwin and Canada are doing.

(4,646 posts)He says we were forced to watch SNL? I picture him chained to a chair under a dangling lightbulb, trying to shield his squinty snake eyes from the flickering TV taped down on his protruding belly.

He must have just head Alec got a show with ABC
http://variety.com/2018/tv/news/alec-baldwin-abc-talk-show-1202712503/
Alec Baldwin is set to host a new talk show titled Sundays with Alec Baldwin on ABC.
ABC will air a sneak peak of the new series immediately after the Academy Awards on Sunday night beginning at 11:35 pm ET/10 pm PT, with eight additional episodes to debut later this year. The show will feature one-on-one conversations between Baldwin and a range of pop culture figures, modeled after his WNYC podcast Heres The Thing with Alec Baldwin.
Im excited about this show and grateful to ABC for taking a chance on me in what is, admittedly, a crowded field, said Baldwin. Ive enjoyed doing my podcast for WNYC and look forward to the challenge of doing a show on camera.
The first episode will see Baldwin interview comedy legend Jerry Seinfeld as well as Saturday Night Live star Kate McKinnon.
Alecs intellect, wit and wealth of life experience afford him a voice and perspective we havent seen before in this format, said Channing Dungey, president of ABC Entertainment. When we shot the pilot, we knew immediately we had something special that we couldnt wait to share. We are excited to be working on a series that showcases Alec as one of todays most compelling conversationalists and highlights the type of intimate discussions that he has captured on his podcast for years.
Baldwin hosts and executive produces ABCs Match Game, and his company, El Dorado Pictures, has a two-year first-look deal with ABC Studios. Sundays with Alec Baldwin is produced for ABC by El Dorado Pictures. Jason Schrift serves as executive producer.
The actor previously hosted the late-night talk show Up Late with Alec Baldwin for MSNBC in 2013, but the show was pulled after five episodes.
