0:00.0	All right, welcome everybody to the Jim Acosta show. It is Tuesday, March the 4th.
0:05.3	Trump is going to be giving a big speech to a joint session of Congress in just a few hours from now.
0:11.1	The fact checkers better get ready. Fact checkers, start your engines. This is going to be the Indianapolis 500 of fact checking.
0:19.6	And all of that gets started very soon. In the meantime,
0:23.1	though, I do want to give you a couple of housekeeping items right off the bat. I have coming up in

1:21.6	Americans out there who are obviously impacted negatively, not feeling so good about the fact, disappointed, disheartened.
1:32.0	What's the right word here?
1:34.2	Pissed, it might be the right word, by the fact that he's going to be up there giving a speech
1:39.6	before a joint session of Congress when a lot of Americans feel like, and you can put me in this
1:44.5	category, he should have been disqualified from the presidency a long time ago. He has no business
1:48.5	being there. And so this is going to be difficult, I think, for a lot of people to watch.
