It’s probably going to be pretty quiet here at MaddowBlog for the next few days, and readers should expect a light-to-nonexistent posting schedule. That said, I’ll be around in case major news breaks.
We’ll return to a normal publishing schedule on Thursday, Jan. 2. There will, however, be a special episode of The Rachel Maddow Show on this evening
Steve Benen is a producer for "The Rachel Maddow Show," the editor of MaddowBlog and an MS NOW political contributor. He's also the bestselling author of "Ministry of Truth: Democracy, Reality, and the Republicans' War on the Recent Past."
