Randi's on vacation, but Nicole Sandler's back today to cover the latest news, and continue the year-end wrap-up.

The Huffington Post's Ryan Grim will join Nicole to recap the latest comments from President Obama and Speaker Boehner on the fiscal cliff, and give us an update on the chances of filibuster reform passing in the Senate.

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and economics columnist David Cay Johnston will answer the question about the so-called fiscal cliff many Americans are asking: how will this actually affect me?

In our ongoing recap of the Top Ten Topics of 2012, Becky Bond, political director of CREDO Action will discuss the War on Workers, and how activists fought back this year. Journalist Josh Eidelson of Salon and The Nation will also talk about how unions handled the fight this year, and what the future of the union movement in America may look like.

Plus, Nicole will recap the latest from the massacre in Connecticut, what changes we may be looking at in gun safety/control laws.
