Welcome one and all to Big News Wednesday.

Hey, everybody. It is a big day in the news. It is a breaking day in the news. We're going to get all that in just a minute. But first I want to welcome to the show once again on Big News Wednesday. Sharon Reid is here. Sharon, how's it going? It's going great. Big News Wednesday is living up to the billing. It is. It is. Well, it's good to have you here. Reminder to everyone If you haven haven't been here in a couple big news Wednesdays, we do now finally at long last have an emoji to honor Sharon. It is there on both Twitch and YouTube. But we do have a lot that we're gonna be talking about today. Stuff here in the US, stuff abroad, so much going on, insane cabinet meetings.

Trump trying to reposition himself as like a champion of workers as he fires all of them.

So that will be entertaining.

We're going to dive in once again into the evidence to try to answer the question that

everybody is just dying for an answer for, which

is Donald Trump dying?

We're gonna ask about that and a whole lot more besides.

In the aftermath, we will be talking about Taylor Swift, who just got engaged.

First thought I do want to mention something that happened right before as we were getting ready to go live.

It's a developing story that I'm sure you're aware of,

the tragic shooting at a Minnesota Catholic school, at least as of when I put this into my

rundown doc, two children had already been killed. Many others, far more than a dozen,

had been shot in just the latest mass shooting here in America. And I'm sure,

you know, Republicans are they're getting their thoughts and prayers, tweets ready. They

probably save it in their drafts. You know, they don't want to type that up for every mass

shooting. That would be a big waste of their time. But these kids were praying when they were shot. That didn't save them.

Maybe at some point we can stop offloading the solutions to our problems to people in the sky,

and we can put it on people in our capitals, and then maybe they can at some point do something.

But let me not speak absurdities, that's definitely not going to happen.

So tomorrow we'll know the full extent of the damage that was done.
