Now it's time for the last word with the great Lawrence O'Donnell Lawrence.

I thoroughly enjoyed being on set with you last night during that very long evening.

I'm looking forward to your show tonight.

Well, it was, well, the only fun thing about it was to actually be there with you and our friends.

It was a very difficult thing for the country to get through,

the longest one ever, rambling, mostly incoherent. Rachel, you have developed a specialty

that I am really grateful for, and that is covering the protests that are erupting around the country. I haven't done that

during this hour. And I'm sure we will at some point. But I've first seen it in your hour. And I've

now come to rely on it. It's how I find out what's going on out there and how people are responding to this.

And I have to say for people who fully object to what Donald Trump is doing, to what the

Republican Congress is doing, it is a really inspiring range of reports that you deliver

about what people are really doing out there and what they can

all do tomorrow where they live. Well, the thing that's interesting to me, Lawrence, is that I feel

like there's a lot, there's like this concentric, concentric circles of politics, right? And at the center is

what happens in Washington. And then there's sort of political professionals that are

focused on Washington and then

in state politics and stuff.

But way outside that, on the edges of that are people who don't think of themselves as

political beings at all, who think of ourselves just as citizens, who don't think of

ourselves as either having our direct jobs or our direct, you know, livelihoods in some way connected to the

workings of the government. And when you start seeing those folks insignificant numbers

repeatedly bodily showing up places and saying, this is not okay with me, it means something.
