We have a lot of news to get to tonight, a lot of news.

But tonight, I want to start with the fact that Donald Trump announced he will sign an executive order to pay TSA workers during the ongoing shutdown.

Of course, this comes six weeks after this shutdown began, which begs the question, one of the questions, I should say, as to why Trump didn't do this in the first place.

I think a lot of people have waited in out lines for four hours, six hours, whatever it may be, are asking that question.

We're going to talk about that with New Jersey Governor Mikey Cheryl, whose state has been hit very hard by that shutdown,

both in terms of people waiting at the Newark airport and in many, many different ways.

Oh, and tonight, the Treasury

announced that Donald Trump is literally going to put his own name on American currency, not

making that up. It's literally what was been reported. A move that is definitely very tacky,

but might also be illegal. So I'm going to talk about that with former White House ethics

lawyer, Norm Eisen, later on in this hour. But I'm actually going to start the show really with Trump's War of

Choice in Iran, of course, because we are now on day 27 of the conflict. And gas prices as of today

have increased by a full dollar per gallon in just the last month. I'm sure you all have noticed that. Wall Street

just had its worst day since the war began. Iran has categorically rejected Trump's offer to

end the war. And even Republicans are irate with the administration over the lack of answers

on Iran in the briefings they've done on the Hill just this week. And amid this ongoing crisis,

President of the United States held the cabinet meeting today,

where normally you would talk about, say,

the war you launched four weeks ago and the impacts of it

and what every cabinet member and agency should be doing about it

to bring it to an end, what the strategy is.

Well, that wasn't what he was focused on.
