these having difficulty making it past the mountains, past i 81 right now, you can soo he this activity, here is a distinct line, most of this back in west virginia. as this tries to push towards the east might such touch off a few sprinkles for the morning hours, for most of us it's a dry day and highs in the upper 40s, as we look ahead to the weekend looking dry. if you're getting the christmas tree in weekend i think it's going to be a little bit better on sunday, not as cold and the winds not as bad. if you're heading to the holiday parties this weekend the evenings are looking dry. coming up in ten minutes i will be walking you throughout your day today letting you know how cold it will feel when we factor in the winds. >>> still have this closure westbound toll road after fairfax county parkway so, again, the main lanes are shut down about you if you're trying to get to the airport you're are nice and clear. tow truck there and going to get that out of the way hopefully soon. southbound 270 after 80 still have that broken down vehicle blocking the left lane and it is slowing thing

rex tillerson is a potential example of secretary of state who do soo close ties to russia.ies to the vladimir putin. donald trump is on a different playing field when it comes to russia than many members of his own party. so how do people on the hill react as this investigation is ongoing and whether we see more republicans falling in line with their view or with donald trump. >> and a krae of the exxon mobile now apparently on the short list to become secretary of state. -- said russia is america's number one geo political foe. he was attacked at the same for saying that but clearly right now it doesn't appear that the president elect glees with him. >> yeah. this is an area of policy where obviously the two of them have had a very different tone and i certainly think that governor romney and his concern about russia, the need to be clear-eyed is very important. i do think though it is important to think about the differences in tone versus actual differences in policy. it is not clear that the president elect, beyond sort of intimating the u.s. might wok together with rus

president-elect donald trump who is, again, the one person out there who thinks there is, well, actually y sooctually, i shouldn't say that. speaker ryan, mitch mcconnell and others are standing around donald trump who is not only disagreeing with the cia, but actually criticizing the cia and, sadly, speaker ryan and mitch mcconnell and others are not standing up and saying the president cannot in the face of adversaries criticize the united states intelligence community. >> well, under the category of politics, sometimes taking things a little too far. your tweet said we're five weeks from the inauguration and the president-elect is completely unhinged. the electoral college must do what it was designed for. what does that mean, congressman? >> well, i'll stand by my characterization of the president-elect. again, what finally pushed me over the edge is that when the president-elect of the united states criticized the -- can you imagine what the leaders in moscow and terraehran are think as they watch the next president of the united states criticize his own intelligence community and stand u

.; renee elise goldsberry; daveed diggs; philippa soo; and chris jackson. what is it that connects?, they are. one of the things that's exciting to me about playing angelica schuyler and feeling so powerful and knowing the time that we live in with hilary running for president. we get to show who the founding mothers are and what they did. they were not just sewing flags. they were actually the muse, like angelica schuyler was to jefferson and to hamilton. >> rose: daveed, you said it gives you something you didn't have before. ownership of your own history. >> daveed diggs: yeah, yeah. i mean, this is the only time i've ever felt particularly american, is in the last, like, eight months that i've been working on this. >> rose: "hamilton" came back to life at a time when politics and immigration are the hottest topics in america, but it was miranda's writing that has made it a juggernaut. when you write, i mean i have been told you write, and if it's sad, tears come to your eyes. you're in the moment to express yourself. >> lin-manuel miranda: yeah. i think of acting and writing as

>> i mean, the process is soo p opaque, it's difficult to know.voted for republicans and democrats and the key here is not partisanship. the key is wanting america to be strong, to look good. if that is, in fact, the case, then a measure of planning and foresight and preparation is required in order to think these strategies through. and i think with respect to the phone call from taipei to washington, clearly this was not spontaneous. if "the washington post" reporting this morning is to be believed, then there were probably weeks of contexts back and forth between the trump transition team and the government in taipei. what the purpose of it is and what the implications are going to be. is it to make good on the fact that the president-elect wants to demonstrate that he is unpredictable and tough? is it to increase a certain amount of leverage with the chinese to demonstrate that we can't be taken for granted. all of these things are floating around in an extremely volatile, combustible area of the world where at the moment we might not have the
