“Atop Obama’s Christmas Wishlist: A Legacy,” TODAY at 3 p.m. ET (12 p.m. PT)

Obama is scrambling, in CNN’s words, to “calcify and protect” his “top agenda items” from Trump’s “wrecking ball.” Who is the wielder of the “wrecking ball,” really? Will Obama succeed in cementing a legacy of any value whatever? This and more on today’s show. See Program Notes, below, for all the stories, etc., I plan to discuss.

“Is Fake News a Fake Issue?” TODAY at 3 p.m. ET (12 p.m. PT)
