NOW. AND WE BEGIN TONIGHT WITH EXACT TRACK. FOUR DAY RADAR TRACKING RAIN MOVING THROUGH
METRO DETROIT, AND IT’S GOING TO
STAY SOGGY HEADING INTO THE NEW
YEAR. AND YOU SEE IT ON THE
RADAR THERE. WE’VE BEEN SEEING
RAIN ON AND OFF ALL DAY WE HAVE
SO LET’S GET RIGHT OVER KIM
ADAMS IN THE FOREWARN FORECAST.
I KIM KIM AND PAMELA. WELL, WE
DO HAVE RAIN OUT THERE RIGHT
NOW, AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL
CONTINUE FOR AT LEAST THE NEXT
SEVERAL HOURS, AND IT COULD BE
HEAVY AT TIMES, SO IT’S TOUGH TO
ENJOY 50 DEGREE WEATHER WHEN
IT’S POURING DOWN RAIN DETROIT
53 49 HALF 51 IN PONTIAC AND
ALSO IN ADRIAN EXACT TRACK 40
RADAR. MOST OF THE HEAVIER RAIN
IS CENTERED JUST TO THE NORTH
AND WEST OF DOWNTOWN DETROIT.
IT’S DRY AND WARM. OREN AND
DETROIT BUT RAINING IN LIVONIA,
FARMINGTON HILLS, NORTHVILLE AND
PLYMOUTH A LITTLE BIT FURTHER TO
THE WEST AND MILFORD. IT’S
RAINING THERE. SOUTH LYON GREEN
OAK HEARTLAND AND ALSO IN
BRIGHTON WILL WIDEN BACK OUT THE
VIEW. AS WE GO THROUGH THE NEXT
SEVERAL HOURS, THE RAIN WILL
PICK UP. IT’LL BE HEAVY AT TIMES
, BUT TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN
WELL ABOVE FREEZING, SO WE DON’T
HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ANY ICE ON
THE ROADWAYS. BUT THERE COULD BE
SOME PONDING AS YOU HEAD OUT
TONIGHT. 54 NOW AT CITY AIRPORT
, 53 AT METRO 51 IN PONTIAC’S
LITTLE WARMER THAN IT WAS
YESTERDAY BY ABOUT NINE DEGREES
IN MOUNT CLEMENS AND 1 DEGREES
IN DETROIT. TOMORROW WE’LL HIT
THE LOW FORTIES. RAIN SHOULD END
BY THE MORNING. I’LL HAVE YOUR
COMPLETE FORECAST COMING UP.
OKAY, KIM. THANK YOU. ALRIGHT,
LESS THAN 24. HOURS. FROM NOW.
IN MICHIGAN, WOLVERINES WILL BE
ON THE FIELD VYING FOR A SHOT AT
THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP.
JAMIE EDMONDS IS HERE NOW. AND
JAMIE THROUGH TCU FIRST. YEAH.
YOU KNOW, I THINK THE TENDENCY
MIGHT BE TO LOOK AHEAD, BUT THEY
HAVE TO GET THROUGH THE HORN
FROGS FIRST BEFORE THEY CAN LOOK
TO THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP.
BUT THE TEAM HAS SAID ALL WEEK.
THEY CAN’T DO THAT. IT’S JUST
ONE GAME AT A TIME EARLIER TODAY
IN ARIZONA, JIM HARBAUGH AND
SONNY DYKES HELD A JOINT PRESS
CONFERENCE AND POSE WITH THE
FIESTA BOWL TROPHY. ANY GUESSES
HOW MUCH THIS THING IS WORTH?
WELL, IT’S $2.5 MILLION,
ACCORDING TO ESPN, THE FOOTBALL
AND THE TOP IS ONE MILLION BUCKS
ALONE BECAUSE OF THE 2200
DIAMONDS, AND IT WEIGHS £285
SOME FUN FACTS THERE, AND THAT
ISN’T EVEN THE ULTIMATE PRIZE.
OUR WHOLE WE ARE. TEAGUE IS IN
SCOTTSDALE MUCH MORE ON THE
COACH’S PRESS CONFERENCE COMING
UP IN SPORTS, BUT FIRST, HOBIE
CUT UP WITH SOME MICHIGAN FANS
WHO MADE THE TRIP. HELP ME. YES
JAMIE MIGHT BE WONDERING, YOU
KNOW, I THOUGHT YOU WERE THERE
FOR A FOOTBALL GAME. YOU’RE AT A
BASEBALL STADIUM WHERE THERE’S A
GIANT PEP RALLY WILL BE GOING ON
IN JUST ABOUT AN HOUR THAT WILL
BE FILLED WITH MAIZE AND BLUE
HERE IN SCOTTSDALE, BUT YOU
TALKED TO FANS. YOU TALK TO
COACHES. YOU TALKED TO PLAYERS.
EVERYONE EXCITED ABOUT WHAT’S TO
COME IN THE FIESTA BOWL, BUT
EVERYONE BOTH INTERNALLY AND
EXTERNALLY UNDERSTANDS. BUT THIS
IS A BUSINESS TRIP FOR THE
WOLVERINES TO TRYING TO GET
THROUGH TCU TO REACH THAT
NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME. THE
STADIUM AND STAGE ARE BEING SAID
AS MICHIGAN MAKES ITS WAY BACK
TO THE NATIONAL SEMIFINAL.
FIESTA BOWL CROWD EXPECTED TO BE
FILLED WITH WOLVERINES READY TO
SEE THEIR TEAM TAKE THE NEXT
STEP, KIND OF HARD TO BELIEVE.
BUT I KNEW I KNEW THEY HAD IT IN
MY BEEN TRUSTING JIM HARBAUGH
SINCE THE BEGINNING, THINGS TAKE
TIME STRENGTH. WE GOT FOUR
QUARTERS OF FOOTBALL PLAYERS
THAT’S COMING OUT THERE. WE’RE
GONNA TAKE THIS DUCK. MICHIGAN
FANS ARE CONFIDENT AND SO TOO
ARE THE WILDLIFE. JUDY, THE
RHINO AT THE PHOENIX ZOO,
PICKING THE WOLVERINES TO MAKE
THEIR WAY TO THE NATIONAL
CHAMPIONSHIP. IT WAS APPLE IT
WAS APPLE, WHICH HE NORMALLY
GOES FOR THE MINT. I WILL SAY SO
. MAYBE WE GOT A CLEAR WINNER,
BUT NEITHER FANS NOR BEAST CAN
CONTROL THE OUTCOME OF
SATURDAY’S CONTEST THAT’S ON THE
TWO TEAMS, AND JIM HARBAUGH
BELIEVES THAT HIS WOLVERINES ARE
READY TO ROLL. AS THE CHASE FOR
A CHAMPIONSHIP ROLLS ON,
EVERYBODY GETS THIS THIS
OPPORTUNITY, HARDLY ANYBODY.
YEAH GETS THIS KIND OF
OPPORTUNITY. AND, UM YOU KNOW,
IT’S THE BEST OF THE BEST
PLAYING THE BEST. I MEAN, YOU
ARE. WHO YOU WHO YOUR RECORDS
SAYS YOU ARE. I THINK THAT WAS
BILL PARCELLS SAID THAT AND YOU
KNOW THEY’RE GREAT. UM AND WE’RE
READY. WE’RE READY TO LINE UP.
IT’S TIME TO LINE UP AND HAVE AT
IT. THAT IT IS THEY’LL GET THEIR
CHANCE TOMORROW AGAINST TCU AND
THE TWO TEAMS KICK OFF IN THE
AFTERNOON. I KNOW A LOT OF
WOLVERINES FANS ARE PROBABLY
HOPING THAT JUDY IS CORRECT. AND
SPEAKING OF WOLVERINES FANS, WE
TALKED TO OUR FAMILY WHOSE
FLIGHTS GOT CANCELED, BUT THEY
MADE THE TRIP ANYWAY. DRIVING
ALMOST 30 HOURS TO BE HERE.
WE’LL INTRODUCE YOU TO THEM. YOU
KNOW THE PATH TO THE COLLEGE
FOOTBALL PLAYOFF FOR BOTH
PLAYERS, COACHES AND FANS. JUST
CAN’T BE EASY. HOPEFULLY, THE
WOLVERINES CAN’T GET IT DONE FOR
NOW. WE’RE LIVE IN SCOTTSDALE,
ARIZONA, OPR TEAGUE LOCAL 4.
THANKS FOR GOING TO BASEBALL
STADIUM AND THE ZOO BECAUSE YOU
JUST KILLED WITH KIM, RIGHT BY
EXPRESS MY THOUGHTS ABOUT THAT.
THAT’S PRETTY FUNNY, HAVE MUCH
MORE WITH HOBIE AND COMING UP IN
SPORTS, AND ON THAT LOCAL 4 PLUS
SPECIAL WE HAVE AT 6 30 WERE
LOOKING FORWARD TO IT. THANK
YOU, JAMIE. WE’LL SEE YOU IN A
LITTLE BIT. ALRIGHT AFTER A
LEGAL BATTLE THAT DRAGGED ON FOR
YEARS. TODAY HOUSE DEMOCRATS
RELEASED PRESIDENT TRUMP’S TAX
RETURNS. IT INCLUDES NEARLY 6000
PAGES, INCLUDING 2700 PAGES OF
INDIVIDUAL TAX RETURNS AND 3000
PAGES OF RETURNS INVOLVING
TRUMP’S BUSINESSES. NBC’S DREW
PETRO HAS THAT STORY TONIGHT
FROM WASHINGTON. DEMOCRATS SAY
THE TAX RETURNS SHOW TRUMP’S
CLAIMS ABOUT THE SUCCESS OF HIS
BUSINESSES DON’T HOLD UP AND
THAT IRS AUDITS OF PRESIDENTS
NEED MORE TEETH. REPUBLICANS AND
TRUMP ACCUSED THE DEMOCRATS OF
RELEASING THE TAX RETURNS FOR
POLITICAL GAIN. THE DOCUMENTS
DETAILED FORMER PRESIDENT
TRUMP’S PERSONAL AND BUSINESS
TAX RETURNS OVER SIX YEARS,
INCLUDING WHILE HE WAS PRESIDENT
THEY SHOW IN SOME YEARS, TRUMP
PAID SUBSTANTIAL FEDERAL TAXES
WHILE IN OTHERS HE PAID LITTLE
OR NOTHING. HERE IS THE MOST
POWERFUL MAN IN THE WORLD. THE
SELF DESCRIBED CLEVER GENIUS WHO
WHO BRAGS OF HIS WEALTH ALMOST
DAILY. AND HE DID NOT PAY THE
TAXES THAT THE MOST MODEST WAGE
EARNER IN THIS COUNTRY WOULD PAY
RETURNS FROM 2020 SHOW. NEARLY
ALL OF TRUMP’S INCOME WAS OFFSET
BY LOSSES HE BROUGHT IN MORE
THAN $59 MILLION BUT LOST MORE
THAN 58 MILLION, CLAIMING A NET
INCOME OF UNDER $800,000 AFTER
CONTRIBUTING SUBSTANTIALLY IN
PRIOR YEARS, THE FORMER
PRESIDENT CLAIMED NO CHARITABLE
DEDUCTIONS IN 2020. THE RELEASE
OF TRUMP’S TAX RETURNS AS PART
OF AN INVESTIGATION SPEARHEADED
BY DEMOCRATS ON THE HOUSE WAYS
AND MEANS COMMITTEE, WHICH FOUND
THE IRS FAILED TO AUDIT TRUMP’S
FINANCES DURING HIS PRESIDENCY
AS REQUIRED BY LAW. THERE SHOULD
BE A MANDATORY AUDIT SO THAT THE
AMERICAN PUBLIC CAN HAVE
CONFIDENCE IN THE PRESIDENT AND
THE PRESIDENT’S FINANCES
RECORDER RESPONSE TO THE RELEASE
, TRUMP RIPPED DEMOCRATS AND THE
MEDIA. IT’S SO SAD FOR OUR
COUNTRY, IT’S NOTHING BUT
ANOTHER DERANGED POLITICAL,
WHICH HUNT WHICH HAS BEEN GOING
ON FROM THE DAY I CAME DOWN THE
ESCALATOR IN TRUMP TOWER.
MEANWHILE KEVIN BRADY, THE TOP
REPUBLICAN ON THE INVESTIGATING
COMMITTEE, ACCUSED DEMOCRATS OF
WEAPONIZING THE RELEASE OF
PRIVATE TAX INFORMATION, SAYING
, THIS IS A REGRETTABLE STAIN ON
THE WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE AND
CONGRESS AND WILL MAKE AMERICAN
POLITICS EVEN MORE DIVISIVE AND
DISHEARTENING. IN THE LONG RUN,
DEMOCRATS WILL COME TO REGRET IT
. ONE OF THE FINDINGS OF THE
INVESTIGATION IS THAT THE IRS
DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH RESOURCES
TO COMB THROUGH TAX DOCUMENTS AS
COMPLEX AS TRUMP’S IN ORDER TO
COMPLY WITH LAWS CURRENTLY ON
THE BOOKS. DEMOCRATS WANT TO
GIVE THE IRS MORE RESOURCES SO
THAT FUTURE PRESIDENTS FACE MORE
SCRUTINY. REPORTING FROM
WASHINGTON. I’M DREW PETRIE, MO.
