Katy Tur is the best MSNBC has in the under 40 crowd, and can play a good hand with most in the over 40 pack. May she have the best of everything this coming year.

2018 was a year of nightmare (with few exceptions) for the mosts of us.... Let us hope that the year 2019 will be a Nightmare for Trump this time.

Katy is far and away the best of the early crowd, MSNBC should give her a prime time show (maybe replacing Chris Matthews). Anyways, happy new year to all, it's gonna be a wild 2019.

Happy New year and new baby Katy! Keep up the good work

[chriscovino]

So, i was walking behind Katy during the MSG run, and a bunch of people yelled at her to name the new baby Summer Tur, or Fall Tur. So, shes heard it, maybe we dont need to keep doing it? Haha

First Ari, now Katy. It's good to see the hosts letting loose a little after a stressful year.

[tanya]

[jasonfaulkner]

Note to MSNBC. "MSNBC News", a different channel showing lower quality versions of your clips, had completely usurped your spot (MSNBC) in my Youtube suggested viewing page. Happened fast, over Christmas. Like it was planned?! Couldn't find "MSNBC" with the blue checkmark any more. Like a doppleganger the other channel quickly slid in a took your place. I hate this. Do you hate it too?

Waist a billion Flashback: ->Administration giving up on full 'virtual fence' on border
By Jeremy Pelofsky
Saturday, January 15, 2011
The Obama administration canceled Friday the troubled, billion-dollar "virtual fence" project along the U.S. border with Mexico and said it will turn to other security measures to better guard the desert region.

The SBInet project, begun in 2006 and run by Boeing, was designed to pull together video cameras, radar, sensors and other technologies to catch illegal immigrants and smugglers trying to cross the porous border.

But it faced setbacks, missed deadlines and cost overruns. The Department of Homeland Security said the project spent $1 billion to cover just 53 miles in Arizona.

In its place, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said, commercially available surveillance systems, unmanned aerial drones, thermal imaging and other equipment will be used. This new approach should cost less than $750 million to cover the rest of Arizona's border, some 323 miles, the department said.


"This new strategy is . . . a more effective balance between cost and capability, " Napolitano said in a statement.

The Obama administration has been under pressure to beef up security to stem the flow of illegal immigrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border and halt the smuggling of drugs and weapons.

Last year, President Obama signed a $600 million bill to fund 1, 500 new Border Patrol agents, customs inspectors and law enforcement officials along the border and to pay for two more unmanned drones.

Additionally, he ordered about 1, 200 National Guard troops to the southwest border to help with security.
