Today I worked on:
*       Dailies
*       Finished a draft of Corker top hits and sent it to Brinster for marking up. Also sent Brinster all the comments Corker has made on Trump that I know of and the two bullets of Trump calling Corker "great" and fantastic."
*       Created a Jordan book and organized all of my bullets on him thus far.

Highlights

Corker:
*       Another day without any Trump news
*       Supported the bill that allows US citizens suing Saudi Arabia over 9/11
*       Said that Congress likely wouldn't move on GSEs this session. Corker has been a strong critic of Fannie & Freddie.

Gingrich:
*       A new edition of his Christianity-related book that he wrote with his wife is out now
*       Politifact said a claim he made about China stealing $360 billion in intellectual property was mostly true
*       Gingrich made a number of tone related comments about Trump on Cavuto yesterday
*       NYT had a big piece about Gingrich's paper that he world for the RNC about how to succeed and how that doesn't really line up with how Trump is conducting his campaign

Jordan:
*       Unsurprisingly opposed the overtime rule change
*       Laid into Ben Rhodes and compared him to Jonathan Gruber
*       Politico reported that he worked with Mark Meadows to pressure Ryan into getting an impeachment hearing for the commissioner of the IRS
