I loved “The Neil Diamond Musical: A Beautiful Noise.” The acting, dancing and especially all the songs were so special. It brought back many wonderful memories.

Good news! The really important new book by my friend and CNN colleague Jim Sciutto is available today. “The Return of Great Powers: Russia, China, And The Next World War” is must read and very timely.

My friend and colleague Dana Bash will again join me today during the 11am ET hour of the CNN “Newsroom.” Will there be a partial government shutdown? The clock is ticking.

Thanks Ashley Allison for joining me this morning in the CNN 11am ET Newsroom for a very strong political conversation.

A special thanks to Alayna Treene and Jeff Zeleny for joining me. They know politics.
