Thank you, dylan. Well get your full forecast coming up in a few minutes. We turn to politics and President Trump, again, unloading on the impeachment inquiry at a Fiery Campaign rally in louisiana. First, the latest on where things stand in washington. A former ambassador to ukraine, testified behind closed doors friday, saying President Trump inexplicably pressured the state department to get rid of her. And the New York Times is reporting that the president s personal lawyer, rudy giuliani, is under investigation, by federal prosecutors in manhattan over his work in ukraine. After meeting with chinese officials, the president announced the beginning of a trade deal he dubbed phase one. The tentative agreement calls off a tariff increase set to take place next week. For more on all of that, we want to go to hans nichols at the white house for us. Good morning, peter. The president was raw and rivaled. He played to a firedup and friendly crowd last night. Its all part of his counterimpeachment strategy, claiming the democrats are attempting a coup and their impeachment inquiry is illegitimate. At a latenight louisiana rally, President Trump getting salty on the bayou. Theyre pursuing an illegal, invalid and unconstitutional [ bleep ] impeachment. Reporter the president resorting to profanity after his former ambassador to ukraine, marie yovanovitch, testified on capitol hill. Claiming that President Trump forced her out even though she had done nothing wrong. Nbcs hallie jackson. Did you pressure them . She was a wonderful woman. If you remember the phone call i had with the president , the new president , he didnt speak favorably. I dont know her. Reporter by testifying, the veteran diplomat risked her career in Foreign Service, where she focused on possible deals instead of disagreements, as she told me in ukraine last year. You know, were always looking for areas that we can work together. Reporter in her opening statement, obtained by nbc news, yovanovitch said the state department under trump was being attacked and hollowed out from within. And she claimed the president s personal attorney, rudy giuliani, for waging a Concerted Campaign against her, along with two of his associates, arrested this week, who may well have believed their personal financial ambitions were stymied by our anticorruption policy in ukraine. With former Vice President joe biden calling giuliani a thug at a fundraiser, the president distancing himself from his own attorney at the white house. I dont know. I havent spoken to rudy. I spoke to him yesterday briefly. Hes a good attorney and he has been my attorney, yes. Reporter while making a clean break from his acting secretary of homeland security, kevin mcaleenan. We have he wants tomorrow spend more time with his family and go to the private sector reporter guys, this morning the New York Times is reporting that federal investigators are looking into giulianis lobbying efforts ine his efforts to potentially undermine yovanovitch. And the president is touting a new trade al with china yesterday. How will it affect americans reporter the president is touting this as a substantial phase one deal its preliminary what wont happen is an increase on tariffs on 250 billion of goods. The president is claiming that china has agreed to buy 50 billion in ag products so it could be good for farmers. Hans nichols at the white house, thanks so much. We want to bring in robert costa, National Political rotor for the Washington Post and moderator of Washington Week on pbs bob, nice to see you, thanks for being here. Reporter good moing. Marie yovanovitch testified for nine hours defying the white house orders there are more key figures in this situation who are expected to testify next week how concerned with the president . Reporter the white house is concerned because they know they are probing not only the whistleblower complaint but about how President Trump operates outside the chain of command, not turning to Foreign Service officers and dealing with foreign diplomats, instead conducting a shadow Foreign Policy alongside his longtime lawyer, rudy giuliani. You just mentioned rudy giuliani, lets talk about the dynamic of their friendship. Obviously hes at the center of the scrutiny and whether he broke the law in his ukraine dealings how problematic is that for the president moving forward the president is sticking with his lawyer, mr. Giuliani. He knows hes a confidant and will go on tv. Thats important to the president. At the same time the white house is telling us behind the scenes that President Trump was not always aware of mr. Giulianis private dealings and interactions with these Business Associates who have now been indicted. Lets ask you about that trade truce with china some economists warn that a lot of the big issues, the core issues arent really addressed here but the president wants to cast this at least for the moment as a win, doesnt he . Its understandab when you talk to white house officials because the usmca remains stalled on capitol hill. Because of that reality legislatively, this administration is trying to pursue a deal with china even if its not entirely baked, they want to announce something, some kind of progress to show the markets theyre doing some kind of trade deal at this point. Busy days in washington robert, thanks so much.

In a school where kurds are taking shelter, families blamed President Trump for giving turkey a green light for all this President Trump says he never gave any green light, even though the white house issued a statement explicitly saying that the u. S. Would not stop a turkish invasion right before it began. Now President Trump is threatening turkey with sanctions, but isnt saying what would trigger them. If turkey does something that they shouldnt be doing, we will put on sanctions, the likes of which very few countries have ever seen before.

President trump lashed out during a louisiana Campaign Rally friday night, using profanity to attack the impeachment inquiry. Earlier in the day, the former ambassador to ukraine, yovanovitch, defied white house orders and testified that the president pushed for her remo l removal. The New York Times reports that President Trumps personal attorney, rudy giuliani, is under investigation for his work in ukraine. Overnight, the president announced acting homeland security, kevin mcaleenan, has resigned. He was the fourth person to serve in that post. A surprise on friday from fox news anchor, shepard smith. Thank you for watching today and over the decades, as i traveled to many of your communities and anchored this program, and fox report, and marathon hours of breaking news. Its been an honor and my pleasure. A lot of folks surprised by this one. Smith has been critical of President Trump, and drawing fire from some of his fellow fox anchors. And Robert Forster has died. He started out in films in the 60s and moved on to tv in the 70s. Hes best known for his role in jackie brown in the late 90s. He had a best actor nomination and a slew of roles followed. He was diagnosed with brain cancer. Did the punishment fit the crime . As we reported last saturday, a 21yearold florida man was forced to spend ten days in jail for failing to show up for jury duty.

The attorney for Deandre Summerville speaking out, saying the punishment did not fit the crime his client committed. He spent ten days in jail, after sleeping through day one of jury duty. This is somebody that made a mistake out of ignorance, not out of intentionality. Incarceration shouldnt have been the action taken. Reporter thats why his lawyer filed a formal complaint against the judge, telling the states judicial watchdog agency, he should be out of the Trial Division entirely. Im saying he has assumed that he is unfit to serve or preside over jury trials here in palm beach county. Reporter lawmakers also echoing calls for change. And to walk out in handcuffs and to be put behind bars is unconscionable. Unthinkable. Reporter the judge has yet to respond. But did explain his reasoning behind the controversial jail time when asked about it last month. He was the only africanamerican on the jury, representing a Cross Section of the community. And he decided on his own, it wasnt worth his time to come back. Reporter the judge threw out the charge of contempt, but only after a handwritten apology. Now, the 21yearold says he values the newfound support. Im consistently helping my grandad. Saving up money to get back in school. Reporter supporters of summerville are stressing this isnt the first time this judge has handed out excessive punishment, pointing back to march, when another juror, also africanamerican, was sentenced to nine days in jail and three months probation, for also just missing jury duty.
