Now it is time for the last word with Lawrence O'Donnell. Good Evening.

Good evening, Rachel. And I'm on Blue Sky, too. I think it's Lawrence. Dot O'Donnell.

But so I was listening to Rachel in the last segment they're talking about how the phrase, that's illegal, used to stop things in Washington.

And usually you'd hear that. People would hear that, they would check and they'd go, oh, yeah, it is.

We can't do that.

And now it's kind of like the go sign.

It's like the green light in the Trump version of Washington.

It is just, and it leaves the senators in this, you know, and the House members in this

horrible situation. It's, okay, let's try this. Let's try a football thing. Okay, Super Bowl's coming

up. So it's, it's like they're trying to play past defense. And the offensive team gets to have

like 13, 14 players, like extras, you know, to run down there.

And if Patrick Mahomes can't find one of them, he can throw it to anyone on the bench or anyone in the stands.

Like someone, like a fan can catch it in the seats behind the end zone.

And they'll call that a touchdown.

And we would all say, wait a minute, that's against the rules.

That's kind of the equivalent of what we're seeing in Washington right now.

Right. And meanwhile, there's the refs, right?

Yeah.

At the Supreme Court being like, well, you know, I mean, he is Patrick Mahomes.

Who are we to say what he can't do?

I mean, as long as he's got the ball, I mean, really, he must act boldly.

So, yeah, I mean, it's a, it is a time that we are in.
