I didn't know about the second strike. I didn't know anything about people. I wasn't involved.

I knew they took out of boat. But I would say this, they had a strike. I hear the gentleman

that was in charge of that is extraordinary. It's an extraordinary person.

I watched that first strike lot. As you can imagine, at the Department of War, we got a lot of

things to do. So I didn't stick around for the hour and two hours, whatever, where all the

the latest on peace talks to end Russia's war in Ukraine, following an hours-long meeting yesterday

between President Putin, President

Trump's envoy, and Trump's son-in-law. The question is, did that meeting actually accomplish anything?

Also ahead, we'll dig into the fight on Capitol Hill to extend health care subsidies as insurance

premiums are set to spike for millions of Americans on January 1st. The question is,

can Congress find a compromise before the calendar runs out?

It's way too early for this.

Good morning and welcome to way too early.

The show that wishes it too had the ability to control the weather.

We're going to explain that story coming up in just a bit. I'm Allie Vitale on this Wednesday,

December 3rd, and we'll start with the news. Defense Secretary Pete Hegeseth continues to try to distance

himself from a September strike on a boat in the Caribbean suspected of smuggling drugs.
