First, with the Iowa caucuses just weeks away, the Presidential race heats up as the political and legal calendars are colliding for the GOP frontrunner Donald Trump. The former President now faces the possibility of being kicked off at least one state's ballot. But Trump has used his woes as a rallying cry and is currently sitting on a sizable lead in the polls.
Next, Congress is on holiday as a government shutdown looms in early January. When they return in the second week of January, things are bound to get much more difficult. Could the stalemate get even worse for the one of the most unproductive congresses in history?
Then, loyalty goes a long way with Donald Trump and that's what's playing out in what could be the nation's most important Senate race. US Representative Matt Rosendale is taking steps to run for the Senate but that's prompting fears from GOP leaders who believe that he would be a weak general election candidate.
And, Former Senior Advisor to the President of the United States, David Axelrod discusses how Biden may be able to overcome his battleground state struggles and the warning signs that he faces.
Finally, the world of pro golf has drawn the attention of a powerful Senator when the PGA tour said this summer it would merge with Saudi owned LIV Golf.
