Trumps home state of new york, first said the president should resign over allegations of misconduct before mr. Trump took office. He fired back with his weapon of choice the tweet. With the latest on this, heres nancy cordes. It was a sexist smear attempting to silence my voice. Reporter new york senator Kristen Gillibrand was attending a bipartisan bible study this morning when the president sent his suggestive tweet calling fer a lightweight and flunky who once begged him for Campaign Contributions and would do anything for them.

Reporter democrats forced out two of their own members last week over similar allegations. Im sorry, mr. President , you do not live under a different set of rules. Reporter but the party that controls congress. Wer what were in charge ofe is the senate. Reporter . Does not want to touch the issue. Reporter should there be a formal investigation . I thought thats what the last election was. Reporter gill brand says she wont stop trying. Republican leaders have been reluctant to even acknowledge the allegations against President Trump. Why do you think theyd be willing to open an investigation . That is the right thing to do, and i am urging them to do that. And as should their constituents. Reporter late this after, the republican chair of the House Oversight committee officially declined to open an investigation, but for an unexpected reason. He said the allegations against President Trump, if true, are crimes, and, therefore are, better handled by the Justice Department than congress. Jeff. Glor nancy cordes, thank you very much.

I tell you all this because ive seen it also, and i want to set the record straight while theyre here. One of our Attorney Says jew. Reporter the headlines appeared to have heidened interest in the race. Across alabama today, there was a steady stream of voters from small towns like gungtersville to big cities like montgomery.

We are joined now by john dickerson, our chief washington correspondent and anchor of face the nation. John, good to see you. What are you watching out for tonight . Reporter well, there are arguments that have been going on around this race. The first thing we want to know is what does it mean for the senate and the paperthin margin there. But the bigger argument, who is going to have a new line in those discussions . There are two big things that have come out of this race. One, how do accusers of powerful men get treated in politics . Thats been at the center of this race. Depending on who wins, people will decide about that. And then the second question is what does it mean to be a republican . When the r. N. C. , the Republican National committee and the president supported roy moore a number of Republican Office holders felt that went too far, that the republicans were supporting someone because they had an r next to their name and there were no other standards. Glor regarding the trump accusers, the white house says people knew about all of this before the election and voted the way they did, anyway. Reporter well, you know, that standard has been changing in American Life and that has been changing while this election has been going on. If that hold, if its true that an accusation is heard before an Election Night are wiped out by the election, well, why wouldnt that apply to roy moore . But youve now got lots of republican senators saying, even if he wins, well take this up and well look at his case. Well, if thats true for roil, why isnt it worth looking at those accusers again for the president . Glor whether its this case or roy moore how does this figure into the future as the Republican Party as a whole . Reporter well, there have been some pretty rough things said from republicans about their president , about their party. So how does humpty dumpy get put back together again when were talking about moral claims, integrity here, on both sides, really . Because there are a number of people who say the critics of the president s and the Republican National committee are just running at the first sign of danger, that theyre not true republicans. So when you say those kind of hard things, does it just go away . Well, we have a lot of elections ahead of us. Theres a chance for that to come back. Glor john dickerson, thank you very much.

They cite deals theyve made to phase out the use of coal and fund more Renewable Energy projects. The world bank has announced it will stop funding oil and Gas Exploration in two years. Former new york mayor Michael Bloomberg says the trump withdrawal from paris has been a rallying cry for others to act.
