## Resource

Seth takes a closer look at Trump facing backlash from Republicans after nominating a crony with no experience to be director of national intelligence. Then, Paul Rudd talks about having a real Irish pub in his basement, starring alongside Nick Jonas in the movie "Power Ballad," and the time he asked Neil Diamond if he was "wanging chung" while DJing at a party.
