Or it since the report's release President Trump is taken to the Fox news airwaves several times to express his feelings in a Thursday afternoon interview with Fox News Channel Mr Trump saying he will not allow former White House counsel Dom again to testify to a House panel but I have had him testifying already for 30 hours so I don't think I can let him tell everybody else you can't because especially him because he was a counsel for the president waived executive privilege form again to talk to the mother team however he is upset was McGann's portrayal in the report as having ignored the president's request to fire Miller something the White House disputes the White House is planning to invoke executive privilege if my hand is called before a House committee in fact the president tells Fox News he's inclined to not cooperate with any investigations that are follow ups to what Mahler's team looked into it's done with over this nobody has ever done what I've done I've given total transparency it's never happened before like this look at anymore this is all it's done and he maintains his taxes under on it should stay out of the public eye because he figures the special counsel's investigators got a hold of them I assume that for the $35000000.00 they've done to everything taxes my financial savings which are phenomenal to everything and I'm still playing for the House Ways and Means Committee has requested the I.

Cinco de Mayo coming up on Sunday only 3 out of 4 people say they'll celebrate all 3 out of 4 people say they're going to celebrate the holiday but only 10 percent know why they're going to do it. I don't know why she's dip maybe some tacos perhaps even a margarita or 2. Doing the information on this said they gave 5 choices for what seemed good to my I was about the correct answer actually came in the last 39 percent said it's Mexican Independence Day It's not that September 16th 26 percent say it's a general celebration of Mexican American culture No 13 percent say it's a day of drinking which I guess in some ways depending upon the teacher could be a correct correct answer 13 percent said they had no clue 10 percent get the answer of Mexico's victory over France in the battle of May the 5th 1862 but you know Sunday you do have a chance to observe that it was another dramatic day yesterday in Congress with what happened there in the house Linda Kenyon has more on what took place with the attorney general Newsradio 102.9 k. Or an Attorney General William Barr was supposed to testify before the House Judiciary Committee about the Miller report just one day after he faced a barrage of tough questions before a Senate committee you lie to Congress I think a lot of maybe if they are say they did not look at the evidence so it may have come as no surprise when the attorney general notified House Judiciary Committee chairman Jerrold Nadler that he would not attend Natalie's hearing so I went ahead and delivered his opening statement to an empty chair it's already general of the United States is sworn to uphold the Constitution as our nation's chief law enforcement officer Doug Collins the ranking Republican on the committee said Barres decision not to attend was NAVL his own fault because NAVL wanted staff attorneys to ask the attorney general questions as well as committee members and bar didn't want that he could have one of these fabulous members that he has and he has some excellent attorneys on his side some of the best he could to give them all 30 minutes and they could to question the attorney general any way they wanted to the hearing did have the air of political theater there was the empty chair and then there was Tennessee Democrat Steve Cohen who brought a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken to the here I sure can barley should have shown up today and answered questions. On the other side of the Capitol Republican Senator Tom Tillis took notice you tell me whether or not the chair of that committee is actually serious about this subject when you've got a guy eating fried chicken in addition to the fried chicken there was a ceramic chicken in the room for a hearing that was exceptionally brief. As the members spilled out into the hallway Democrats had plenty to say sorry General is missing in action have seen without officially Who is next not to respond to the Congress William Morris decision not to come to the hearing was one problem but looming large was his failure to comply with a subpoena to release to the full Congress the complete Henri dad did Mala report on Russian election interference chairman Adler did not take this lightly if we don't get that we will proceed to hold the attorney general in contempt House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says William bars actions in the house and his testimony in the Senate have created a deadly serious situation is deadly serious about it is the attorney general of the United States of America is not telling the truth to the Congress of the United States that's a crime and Pelosi didn't stop there nobody is about just how far the Democratically controlled House might take this remains to be seen to bars a moment of accountability soon enough Linda Kenyon Capitol Hill 716 the plan to talk to John Berry the chairman of the club about the casino proposed in Pine Bluff we weren't able to contact him will reschedule that and try to get that on here in the very near future news article 2 point traffic now Chris counts we're seeing a little bit of a slowdown for 30 inbound it's going to be just past Mayflower we're also seeing a little bit of a slowdown right now for a 67 south as it starts to make its way in between Cabot and Jacksonville this is Chris Celts with the Arkansas traffic network Arkansas driven by crane automotive team crane team dot com.

Or in our movie critic Kevin Carr one of the fact guys the movie's good morning to you sir how you doing today are you doing today I'm hanging in there I'm just curious I mean after a game how do you follow that well I guess you go with. Charlie's throne and Seth Rogen in a political romantic comedy Ok well let's do that let's do that which one is this one is this a long shot is that what this is yes this is a long shot it is a you know it's 1st of all I want to know who his agent is because he's always got like the gorgeous woman that he's costarring with so I don't know I don't know what how that works I guess and so what do you Alan sort of like if we don't get somebody on the other side that Mel is better looking than he has him or never get exacted sales out of this thing so let's do this it's a kind of a balance thing you know I guess the dark and the lights yeah yeah but this is he is he plays a she is she plays the secretary of state is going to run for president and she needs somebody to punch up her speech writing so she goes and gets a maverick journalist who she knew when she was in high school because she's actually babysat him and they strike an unlikely friendship and have an unlikely romance and you know that's the kind of cute it's a cute little romance movie and it takes place in the backdrop of politics so you do have some political jokes in there but it's also not like meant to be taken too seriously I think if you have thin skin either as a consumer of politics or somebody or some politics you're going to be feeling that they're targeting you but really they're not it's just sort of a whimsical backdrop for a kind of a funny movie I founded I founded to be kind of entertaining 7 car movie critic the other one out ugly dull yet this one is based on a toyline I wasn't even aware this thing was this was a real thing but apparently there are there are these ugly dolls that are sort of the story goes all in them juggling right now. In the movie it's these dolls that aren't made properly in the factory and so then they kind of they're sent to their own area and they live in this little happy environment but then they decide to go and try and get the ultimate. Purpose of a doll is to be a kid's toy so they want to go. But there they have to deal with going past the people who have the perfect alls Yeah you know it's it does kind of rip off a little bit of Toy Story it skews a lot younger though and really I think it's made for the you know in younger audiences an n.p.n. If you're somebody who either plays of these dolls or you bought these dolls that's who it's kind of gaming you know damn well that's not me I don't have the young kids now so you know but barely I guess you can buy these things anywhere but you know if you get a kid in 2 years beyond the age of something like that and you are as a parent are totally out of touch with what's you know yet do not in there just to take the kid to the Don't take your teenager to this movie know the content Mom what are you doing please no all right the intruder what do we know about that anything well yeah it's a it's a thriller it's Dennis Quaid plays a guy who sells his house to this young couple and then he won't let it go and he he kind of start stalking them and it becomes one of those urban thrillers something you maybe want to see i'm like me the Lifetime network and you know it looks like it could be fun for sort of an over to the top goofy. Tends to scare for the home invasion type thing but they did screen it so what am I going to do I got to tell you say it's got to be terrible will go that ventures in game are you at all surprised by the box office numbers that came out about that last week I don't know how you can be surprised at the numbers that it did I mean 357000000 dollars 1200000000 worldwide that's just for the 1st week and the 1st weekend it became like the 17th highest grossing movie of all time now just in one we get and then this weekend it's expected to make about what the Dark Knight made its opening weekend which is only in its 2nd weekend so these numbers are absurd at this point you've got people that are seeing this multiple times too so that's certainly adding to it and I have not seen it yet and I don't have any I'm I'm like you have been able to inflate myself from the spoilers so far but. I'm trying to catch up and with the help of my kids now been watching you know that it's not hard to find the Marvel movies on cable right now they're they're out there you know hard to find it's generally get through all 21 before you get. Bunch of them I've seen I didn't realize what I was doing when I was watching these and it was building up to the end I just was you know I was out of touch with that but there are 3 or 4 I think that are key for the movie and once I see those there's you know you see this is in the you're up to date you're going to go so easiest way to do it is see all the movies that are Captain America movie which is like 3 of them see all the movies that are.
