with views from president trump's inner circle about whether he should keep fighting or concede. >> i think that is way premature. at this point we do not know who has prevailed in the election. the media is desperately trying to get everyone to coronate joe biden as the next president, but that's not how it works. the media don't get to select the president, the american people get to elect our president. >> if you say there is voter fraud, then show us. if you can't show us, we can't do this. we can't back you blindly without evidence. >> the president, meanwhile, has arrived at his golf course in virginia, his second straight day of some r and r after his election loss, and the groundswell celebration of joe biden's victory, but he is not done fighting. his campaign with at least seven active election-related lawsuits right now, including a new one filed in arizona. we're also watching the number

of confirmed covid-19 cases here in the united states take up closer to 10 million. more than 238,000 americans have died. president-elect biden's team says the virus first on its agenda, closely followed by a number of executive orders to reverse several of the president's actions. to delve deeper into today's headlines, i'm joined by a team of reporters. we have president-elect joe biden immediately making changes in office, writing several executive orders that will redo some of the president's orders, including the world health organization and climate change. ally, welcome to you. the biden administration not wasting any time at all. >> reporter: hi, alex. not wasting any time at all, and when you look at the cases of coronavirus across the country,

it's an issue he hinged his election on and it's an issue he's diving into first as president of the united states, announcing he'll put a task force together. the transition begins tomorrow. they'll rely on scientific health experts to put a plan on the campaign trail into action before inauguration day. he's also laying out some executive orders that he might tackle once he gets into office, but i want to just backtrack a little bit and bring you into what it was like to be in that parking localit last night here wilmington. they had to stop and start again as we waited for these results, but finally last night joe biden took the stage. that's the end of his 32-year quest for the presidency, but also an historic moment because of kamala harris, the first female vice president, the first woman of color to hold that role. it's not the nation's highest glass ceiling, but, alex, it is pretty darn close. listen to how she talked about it last night.

>> my mother was always in our hearts. when she came here from india at the age of 19, she maybe didn't quite imagine this moment. but she believed so deeply in an america where a moment like this is possible. and so i am thinking about her and about the generations of women, black women, asian, white, latina, native american women, who throughout our nation's history have paved the way for this moment tonight. >> reporter: alex, i feel incredibly lucky to have been able to see the arc of this recovery up until the campaign when it seemed to have

officially ended. i've seen daughters who thought they wouldn't see women isolated to the highest in this land. of course, joe biden is the president-elect right now, but i did meet women yesterday who said they felt seen that kamala harris was now in this space. i also want to update you on the executive orders that we know this ticket is going to tackle now that they are president-elect and vice president-elect. you mentioned roling back some of the things president trump has done. they'll be rejoining the paris climate agreement as well as the world health organization, also putting back in place protection for dreamers as well as stopping the ban on immigration from majority muslim countries that trump put in place. all those things the initial actions of this ticket as they start to figure out what their government might look like. >> i just want to say i appreciate your commentary there about what it was like to cover this, and i have to say, for women all across this country and for the men who support them, kamala harris' rise to the second highest position in the

land is remarkable and something we all applaud. thank you, ally, for that. president trump vows to keep fighting the election results as he says the race isn't over. let's go to josh fetterman joining us at the white house. what is the advice he's getting on how to move forward? >> reporter: alex, if the president's twitter is any indication of his mindset, which it often is, he is still in fighting mode, vowing to contest this. he's getting some backup for that suggestion from jared kushner, the president's son-in-law and senior adviser, who is encouraging him to seek remedies. but on television as well as in private, the president is getting some conflicting advice from his top allies, such as governor >> chrichri if he has no evidence to back

him, he might want to think of moving on. and others urging the president to stick it out and not concede while more votes are being cast. the president's administration is expected to start more lawsuits, but none of these lawsuits at this point in time, alex, seem likely to gain much traction or be likely to change anywhere near the kind of number of votes you would need to actually alter the outcome of this election. increasingly, we are seeing signs for the president that the writing is on the wall. even president george w. bush, the former president, issuing a statement in the last few minutes saying that he called president-elect joe biden to congratulate him on his election victory, and outside of the white house just behind me for the second day in a row, we have celebrations from anti-trump protesters who are demonstrating

sticking yellow signs on the fence reading "ie vikeviction n" alex. >> thank you for that. jeff, welcome, my friend. we have learned that jared kushner has, quote, advised the president to pursue his legal remedies to the election. on the future of that front, do any of the challenges there hold any standing? is there any reputable lawyer who would back that effort? and i want to remind viewers who may have missed the last hour, we spoke to david boyce who may know a thing or two who represented al gore, and he says his advice would have been, time to concede, sir. >> i think what jared kushner is advising is in line with many trump advisers that inside and outside the campaign are saying,

that he should continue to fight on, that he should let these legal challenges proceed, and then see. i spoke to one former white house official who is still in touch with that inner circle yesterday. he said, let it go, in terms of let those legal proceedings go, let the recounts happen, and then if nothing changes, then concede. it's that last piece, then concede part, that is still an open question. at what point will the president be satisfied? but at this point, whether it's jared or whether it's others within trump's closer advisers, that's the consensus so far, that he should keep going. that said, i saw the clip you played from chris christy, and i saw that sentiment as well yesterday from a number of republicans and people who also advised the president, which is they feel like they're being put in a tricky position to defend him if they don't see some of this evidence that he's speaking about. >> do you have any insight into the psyche of the president

right now, the fact that he's out golfing but when he makes his way back home to the white house, he'll see what's out there. there have been signs of dancing and chanting and all sorts of signage. and he turned the television on in the last 48 hours, he's seen that as well. do you know what's going on in that regard? >> i think josh said it well, it's pretty transparent. usually what is going on in president trump's mind, because he shares it all on twitter. you saw his tweets yesterday that he believes still that he won the election, and he said yesterday that he had won it by a lot. so that's a reflection of where he is mentally, i think, right now, in ter now. in terms of him driving by some of these protests on his way back from golf, look, the president has made it clear it does not like to lose. he said on the day of the election that it's easy to win, it's hard, especially for him, to lose, and that's what he's

grappling with. you have to assume that he watched tv last night. the president is a frequent watcher of cable news, and it wasn't just your network, it was all the networks covering former vice president, now president-elect biden's speech, including fox, and you have to assume that was tricky for him, but it's also very safe to assume that he hasn't missed it. >> yeah, for sure. jeff, there is a new piece in the new yorker in which susan glosser writes that president-elect joe biden, quote, is a decent man that campaigned on the premise of making merck again, the former vice president has spent the past few days showing in word and in deed what it will be like to have a presidential president again. what do you say about that? >> there is certainly some tension between the press corps

and the president, and we've seen a lot under president trump. there was tension under president obama, who was the other president that i have covered as well, and i'm sure there will be tension with a president biden. that said, it will change dramatically on other levels. i don't need to tell you that reporters right now are watching twitter in the same way that the rest of the country is. i think that will be a big shift with a president biden. and there will be other ways that he deals with the press that we will like and/or not like. but i don't think we will hear -- i'm pretty confident we won't hear words coming out of his mouth like enemy of the people or fake news. >> yeah, and let's hope that you don't get singled out by the next president. i doubt you will. thank you so much, jeff mason, for that, and jeff, you'll probably want to stick around because i'm guessing you're feeling as bad as i am about the sad news we broke from the entertainment world. alex trebek, long-time host of

"jeopardy" has died after a long battle of pancreatic cancer. this tweet from the show, "jeopardy" is sad to report that alex trebek passed away peacefully at home with family and friends. thank you, alex. thompson has a look at his life. >> reporter: for more than three decades, alex trebek had the answers and the questions. >> it's part of a whale's tail. >> reporter: the proud host of "jeopardy," america's favorite quiz show. >> we are one television quiz show that people are not ashamed of admitting that they watch. >> reporter: with his quick diction, trebek prompted people at home to give the answers.

new information on the presidential race in georgia. as we give you a look at the numbers, joe biden leading the president by a fraction of a percentage point with now 99% of the precincts reporting. let's go nbc's blayne alexander who joins me from atlanta where she has taken her post. there is preparation now for these two big senate races. >> reporter: you're absolutely right, alex. there is a lot of activity left still to happen here in the state of georgia. let's talk about the latest with the presidential race. of course, the race has been called nationwide. we know who the president-elect is, but here in georgia, a

winner still has not been called as votes are still coming in, and we almost certainly will have a recount in the state. overnight and into today, we've seen a slow trickle of both continue to come in, and as that happened, we saw joe biden increase his lead over president trump here in the state of georgia. as of right now, joe biden is up by 10,000 votes, a little more than 10,000 votes, but now it sends his lead to about .2%. it's very possible we won't know who won georgia until sometime around thanksgiving or later. but as we look at that, we're also looking at the fact that come january 5th, we'll likely see not one, but two, senate races. the race between incumbent john perdue and gary osoff and -- jon

ossoff is in the running, and rafael warnock and kelly loeffler. all it means is that this senate power is hanging in the balance. when i spoke to the head of the senate's democratic party, she said the next president is really going to drum up enthusiasm, and she said it will absolutely help ossoff and warnock in their bids to unseat the republican candidates. we're seeing that enthusiasm come in. in fact, the group started by stacey abrams, fair fight, has raised more than $3 million for the election. stacey abrams has sure been an energizing force since she ran for governor in 2018. since she ran in 2018, there's

been many more people registered to vote. she talked a little about this this morning. take a look. >> we've been working at this for more than a decade, and there's been a dozen organizations and people who have made this their primary mission. i have brought to bear resources before the election of 2018, and the $4 million we were able to spend in 2018 to build an economic infrastructure. that may not have yielded a victory for me in 2018, but sure yield ed a victory this week. those who are hard at work will continue the streak and hopefully we'll have two new senate seats to join joe biden in january. >> reporter: you see stacey abrams looking forward to those runoffs. this is a place we've seen before right here in downtown atlanta. this is a tremendous mural that is in honor of congressman john

lewis, and we're here because, of course, here in atlanta we've seen a number of celebrations after the election of joe biden and kamala harris, but we saw a number of people gather right here, in fact, paying tribute to john lewis. so when kamala harris got on stage last night, she began by quoting congressman lewis, and you think it is symbolic as a number of people have pointed out that many votes here in georgia that put joe biden in the lead came from the heart of congressman lewis's district. >> i think i recall you being there on july 17, i think the day that he passed, and i remember all those that came out right there to pay tribute to him. blayne alexander, thank you so much. let's go overseas, american allies welcoming the president and vice president-elect. molly hunter joins us from london. molly, what has been the overall reaction from world leaders? >> reporter: alex, that's right, it's been's deluge since last

night, tweet after tweet. we haven't seen that many world leaders out in person. i want to play a video for you from ireland over the inassess tractor-trail -- incestral homelands of joe biden and kamala harris. there's no doubt we took a hit over the last four years, and the american democracy took a hit, and the consensus, at least here in europe among the strongest allies, faith has been restored. listen to boris johnson today. >> in democracy, in free speech around the world, in human rights, in free trade, in the rules-based international order. all these things are currently under threat. you have the united states and britain standing together as they have done many times in the past to protect those values.

>> reporter: now, alex, i'll just give you a quick whip-around of some of the most viral tweets from this neck of the woods. here's prime minister boris johnson again congratulating joe biden. he says the u.s. is our most important ally and i look forward to working closely together on our shared priorities from climate change to shared security. you have president macron saying, we have many challenges, let's work together, and this tweet from anne hidalgo, she says, welcome back, america. she was one of the first people to tweet last night. it certainly went viral. i want to take you to the middle east. you have israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu who fostered a very cozy relationship with the trump administration over the last four years. he, of course, tweeted his congratulations noting that he and joe had had a long, warm and personal relationship for nearly 40 years. he says, i know you as a great friend of israel, and minutes later, alex, he tweeted his

thanks to donald trump for the friendship you have shown the state of israel and me personally, for recognizing jerusalem and golan. more than 24 hours after joe biden was announced as president-elect, nothing from the kremlin. we haven't heard from turkish president erdogan or from saudi arabia, of course, saudi arabia the first trip president trump took four years ago. >> if you hear anything, get back on and tell us because you're making a good point there. we haven't heard from those three entities. with the new president-elect getting ready to take office, some big questions still remain about what will happen during president trump's final 75 days as head of the united states. the "washington post" said, even

though trump lost, he can still do damage to national security. elizabeth, let's look at what my colleague told brian williams last night. >> we got an enhanced vision in the coming 70-plus days, because the coercion of america, homeland security, defense and justice, we'll have to watch carefully what goes on there. >> what kind of concerns do you have? do you share barry mccaffrey's concerns, because the president clearly not happy about his loss and not gracefully conceding. do you think the president's bitterness right now could turn into a national security issue? >> well, certainly, and i think we've all learned to not see president trump as -- to underestimate the ability he has to sow chaos and breed confusion

around the world. i look at things like the fact that gsa has indicated they are not accepting biden as the president-elect yet, referring to things like letting the constitutional process play out. i'm interpreting that to mean that they won't turn transition resources over to them until december, perhaps, after elections get certified and the electoral college meets. if that's the signal that they're trying to send, i have real concerns about that from a national security perspective. we have the 9/11 commission that noted in their report that one of the reasons we were not well prepared for 9/11 was because of the slow start that transition teams had because of bush v. gore. so one of the historic lessons in the last 20 years are transitions matter, making sure that the incoming team has access to the right information,

access agencies will start having meetings with career and political officials and agencies to understand the state of play in certain issues. all of that takes time. it takes time to hire, it takes time to place people. the government is huge and it's very hard to do a transition in a normal 2.5-month period and it is concerning. i worry about simple things like not turning over to a normal transition, to a biden team, hey, look, if the recounts come back and the courts come back and say actually president trump won, then good news. trump and his team are already in government, they don't need a transition period, they don't need that transition money or access, they're already in the government. so the best scenario for us from a national security perspective is let the biden team assume that role of a transition team and get them up to speed on all the threats that we face in the united states these days. >> do you, elizabeth, take any

comfort in knowing that it was only four years ago that joe biden was being prepped continuously on the situations of national security? does he still have the contacts with whom he can speak -- i hate to even use the word unofficially because our national security doesn't do anything unofficially. but are you at all consoled by the fact that he's probably got a fairly strong rudder in the water when it comes to thinking about national security issues? >> absolutely. his team has been working from the summer onward to prepare their positions on various issues. if we had to be in this position, you want it to be with a group like biden/harris where you have individuals that recently worked in government, they have strong security credentials and they have strong relationships so they have a good idea what's happening. that said, do not underestimate that things do change in four

years, and while some of their team has had access to classified information by law, that was one of the changes the commission made in years past, it's important that this second and third level of people that will be appointed to the biden administration gain access to that classified information quickly so they can get themselves up to speed and to be able to steer and navigate the biden administration in 2021. yes, i'm comforted, but that doesn't take away the need for them to have the full resources, access to that transition capability. it needs to start this week. >> okay, elizabeth newman, unfortunately a little short on time. thank you. the counties that got it wrong after getting it so right for so many years. we'll be talking with the

president's former personal attorney about how much fight may be left in his old boss. t i. but we didn't stop there. we made a cloud flexible enough to adapt to any size business. no matter what it does, or how it changes. and we kept going. so you only pay for what you use. because at dell technologies, we stop...at nothing. ♪ - ( phone ringing )es offers - ecabig button,lized phones... and volume-enhanced phones.nes. get details on this state program. visit right now or call during business hours.

we're seen all over this nation, in all cities and all parts of the country, indeed, across the world, an outpouring of joy, hope, renewed faith in tomorrow to bring another day. with love of country, a thirst for justice, let us be the nation that we know we can be, a nation united, a nation strengthened, a nation hailed. >> i'm getting chills again just hearing that as history in the making, joe biden becoming the 46th president-elect of the united states of america. and joining me now, james carville, co-host of 2020 politics war room and nbc political analyst doris kearns goodwin. her latest book of many is

"leadership in turbulent times." awful good to start with both of you on this sunday morning. doris, ladies first, we saw this administration yesterday blowing off four years of steam. give us your sense of this moment. >> i think what that moment represented was a huge change of mood on the part of all those people in the street, not simply a celebration but a sense of renewal and a huge sigh of relief. we saw that, too, in 1933 when roosevelt took his inauguration. all of a sudden they said, historians said the whole mood of the country changed because he told the people that it was not their fault, that it was the absence of leadership in the hoover administration, and that he would take responsibility, people would get back to work. suddenly there are headlines all over the country, the government still lives! a leader has come! and there was a wonderful letter sent in to roosevelt by a dog whose roof had flown off, the

dog had run away, and we saw unity last night. it was extraordinary. >> how is this win in the big picture? was it a squeaker or a mandate? >> there are a gazillion ballots left to count. the second thing is, with professor goodwin who is a historian, i've got georgia on my mind. i don't have time to look in the rearview mirror. it's not a given that the democrats are not going to have senate control. we're still counting votes in alaska. so i think that georgia is where my focus has been all day today and all day yesterday, and it's going to continue to be my focus because that's going to determine a lot of what happens.

>> that absolutely sounds like a democratic strategist, one with a lot of experience, keep looking forward. what about you, doris, with regard to joe biden who says it's a time for unity, a time for healing. is he the man for the moment? >> it does seem like different leader's strengths are for one time or another, and if a leader himself has gone through trials of fire, he brings a special understanding of that difficulty to the leadership position, so it surely was with fdr having gone through polio and somehow emerging more warm-hearted and more open to people of faith to lend a helping hand. joe biden, having gone through a conceivable third loss, he's learned empathy and resilience, and those traits are essential. when you heard his speech last

night, it wasn't just words, but the story of his life backed up those words. it was almost as if he was doing a fireside chat, conversing with people, telling stories rather than just an oratory. yes, history is aligned with a man to be there in terms of adversity and a time of loss. >> i know you don't necessarily want to look back, but let us look at a number of dell river counties who got it wrong this year. counties in new mexico, indiana, ohio, what do you think happened there, or was this just all about the unique nature of a president donald trump that contributed to it? >> well, first of all, we got it right. what we saw was an explosion in non-college white turnout. fortunately we were able to cut

into his lead and we had a suburban and urban turnout to match that. we're going to win georgia by about 13,000 votes. that's razor thin but that could survive any recount or anything like that. they had a pretty good election. we got problems in the rio grande valley, we got problems in miami-dade, i agree, that in some quarters of the democratic party, certainly not joe biden, just kind of left in the lurch that was unhelpful in the stretch here. we have to really come to -- it's not the greatest problem to have, but we have to come to grips with problems we have in south florida. and i think that vice president biden -- excuse me, president-elect biden -- i apologize, he's got some pretty crafty people around him and i

hope they put people who understand this, and how do we get to relate and build out our coalition a little bit stronger, if you will. >> what about the pundits, though, james, have they lost the ability to accurately gauge the mood of america. have they upended everything about whether it's the mood of this nation, the covid effect. did they blow it, the pundits? >> i guess, i don't know. election night i told everybody don't worry about it, we were going to win. look, did i think that we would win by more than we did? sure. i follow sports and some guys go 0 for 3 in the sports world. it's some people, like anything else, some people know more than other people, but even the best are not going to be right the

whole time. let's wait, because i don't think this election will go down in history as a particularly close election, i really don't. it's not very often you get a 5-point margin in the popular vote. look at all the states that president-elect biden flipped. there is a big tendency among d democratic people. we have problems in south africa and other problems, but i think on the whole, we had a pretty good election. you think you're going to win the game 28-10 and you win the game 20-20, you still won. accept it. you won the election. just get over it. now the question is, what's going to happen in georgia in january? that's all i'm consumed about. i will re-evaluate punditry

after all the votes are in and joe biden throws his right hand in the air. as soon as there is a battle left to fight, we'll have to fight. >> we have to watch you at least throughly. is there a page in your book that he should not harbor resentment, and is there any chance that he wants to do that? >> having a graceful concession is absolutely key to that beginning of looking at legacy, which is what he may be should be doing now. they could also tell him the concession speech is really the star of the time, that it has more importance that the acceptance speeches, so that might get to him to say, you'll be the star. we remember those concession speeches because they're making a peaceful trrchs fl-- transiti.

he said, i stubbed my toe. i'm too old to cry but it hurts to laugh. even gore said the supreme court had spoken, he didn't disagree with it but it was the rules of the land, and he's going to do anything he can to help the country. when it's a dramatic night, you need an end to the story. he didn't allow the end to the story. maybe now there will be some court cases, but at some point, if he wanted to remember well. he also admitted he didn't want a republic tugs as a sore loser.

there's a few reasons, if you're going to go to president trump and mim, protect the legacy and you'll be the star once you do it. >> i don't think trump cares about history. if you asked, he would probably accept civil war history. i've seen no evidence that he is in any way governed by the sense of history or historical moments in the country. i hope professor goodwin, i hope he takes her advice. >> you're saying president trump's character is going to predict how it's going to end. >> he has no sense of history. you would think if you were in a moment like this, that a country was in a moment like this and somebody rose to the occasion --

the only other person who could possibly rise to the occasion is president biden. i feel bad listening to a good one talking about the struggles he's gone with. there is no chance president trump will act with any bit of character at all. that's just not going to happen. >> doris, has there ever been a situation where a president has refused to concede, not given a speech, and how has that played out? >> well, it took a long time in 1876. it actually didn't get solved. the whole crisis ended up in the congress, and hayes was not declared president until two days before the inauguration in march. eventually, tilden did concede. is the ambition of president

trump something just south or is it grown larger. i just hope at a certain moment, a switch turns, and if you go out that door, you can say, who is going to judge me now? maybe i will do one thing. there's always hope some exit as they go out the door. >> thank you both, so, so much. kamala's moment to history, up next. kamala's moment to history, up next

it's no surprise that america has voted for joe biden to be the president-elect. right now he has 279 votes to the president's 214. the president-elect still has a chance to expand that lead. we're watching very closely as vote tallies keep coming in from four races that's nb chiropracts has yet to call. alaska is still early to call. we're going to take a look at where they are at this point in arizona. there you see too close to call. in georgia as we go to that board, too close to call. the difference is 10196 with biden barely leading there by

0.2%. and north carolina too close to call. the difference being 754,407. we will be right back. the protein 754,407 we will be right back. with less of the sugar you don't. [grunting noise] i'll take that. woohoo! 30 grams of protein and 1 gram of sugar. ensure max protein. with nutrients to support immune health.

this country has elected it's 46th president. joe biden and kamala harris celebrating. as soon as he takes office, president elect biden will immediately sign a number of executive orders aimed at reversing several of trump's unilateral actions. first of all, sir, your reaction to joe biden and kamala harris's victory? >> you know, just ecstatic. i could not be more elated. i have to tell you, alex, as a

black man that has a wife and a young 14-year-old son. just the nastiness and the bitterness that i think president trump bestowed and the things ta he made worse in this country. i'm looking forward to joe biden. i thought that he was so genuine when he talked about wanting to heal the country. today is a new day. the sun is shining. and i'm ready to get to work again for all of the american people that i'm excited about joe biden and kamala harris as our next president and vice president. >> i'm happy for you because you're so happy, that is for sure. we're getting a glimpse at what the biden at min straight will be focusing on.

we officially existed the paris agreement, tell me what do you want to see from the biden administration in the first 100 days? >> i think the most important thing is that we have some clarity on coronavirus. i think under president trump our policy from a national perspective was not really clear nap is important because the states need some sort of direction on what they should be doing as it relatts to coronavirus to make sure that people are staying safe. i personally believe that, you know, you really -- if people are following the directives, there is no need for them to shut down, but we have to be safe. we never got that. so i think that is number one. obviously we need to make sure that we're doing everything we can to shore up the affordable

care act. the district that i represent has the highest unensured rate. many don't have income insurance and again, from my perspective as a member of the black caucus, i certainly want to see president biden outline very quickly what his agenda is for the african-american community and i believe again with him, and vice president harris, that it will be very robust and it will be bold. and i believe it will be a plan that will not only help african-americans but can help all people that find themselves on the margin and find themselves struggling. >> house democrats have control. i know you're among those that spoke out. in that call the washington post reports that centralist last out

and blame the party for swrus. what kind of frustrations did you express or hear on that call? >> no one lashed out at any individuals. we always have differences and any family, you need to be able to discuss your differences. i think it is healthy to have these cushions. none of the comments were aimed at any one individual. i think that early on there was people like me that were saying, and i said this on a dccc call back in august and september. the polling showed we needed to get in front of terms like defund the police and we didn't need to use terms like socialism. i think that was being conveyed on that phone call. we had a pollster tell us on a

call that the african-american community was addimently opposed to defunding. one of the top pollster's was an african-american pollster. we want to make sure that we get out in front of these things early rather than later. and i think that was a sense of frustration. but it was never characterized toward any individuals. and i will tell you they think that biden will unite the party. they had young progressives come out and vote for him, he had centralists. he united the party like never before, and they want to continue to see that from the political side. we want to key our eyes on 2022 and 2024.

>> so glad you were here to set that straight. >> a crowd in front of the whois right now more than 24 hours. what will president trump's next move be? michael cohen has more insight into that in the next hour. into that in the next hour fami. fami. and because it's a ninja foodi, it can do things no other oven can, like flip away. the ninja foodi air fry oven, the oven that crisps and flips away. we started by making the cloud easier to manage. but we didn't stop there. we made a cloud flexible enough to adapt to any size business. no matter what it does, or how it changes. and we kept going. so you only pay for what you use. because at dell technologies, we stop...at nothing. ♪

and i'm still going for my best. even though i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib not caused by a heart valve problem. so if there's a better treatment than warfarin, i'm on top of that. eliquis. eliquis is proven to reduce stroke risk better than warfarin. plus has significantly less major bleeding than warfarin. eliquis is fda-approved and has both. what's next? getting out there. don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop.
