| 0:00.0 | The last word with Lawrence O'Donnell. And his take on all of this starts right now. Hey, Lawrence. |
| 0:06.2 | Hey, thanks, Jen. We're going to have to learn the name of the Labor Secretary, Lori Chavez de Renair. |
| 0:13.5 | I already knew, and I think I mentioned during this hour once, that she's under an investigation |
| 0:19.9 | for an inappropriate relationship with a |
| 0:22.5 | staffer at the Labor Department. She's married. And her husband, her husband is now banned |
| 0:30.1 | from entering the premises at the Labor Department because he is now under investigation |
