They're coming up later on that's all ahead on American Morning. 7 minutes after the hour big day on Capitol Hill as the Senate considers a Supreme Court nominee and a House committee delves further into Russia possibly meddling in the u.s. Presidential election following details of our Bob Constantini He's been briefing House and Senate leaders as they launch their own broad probes into Russia's alleged attempts to meddle in the presidential election now f.b.i. Director James Comey will have to break his public silence even if he doesn't give away much we will be asked about President Trump's 2 week old tweets accusing former President Barack Obama of ordering wiretaps on his campaign Comey will appear before the House Intelligence Committee the top Democrat Adam Schiff reiterated there's no evidence to support Mr Trump's claim that this is just how the president does business. You know maybe this is the way he conducted his real estate business with half truths and sometimes no truths and a lot of bluster that in my opinion is no way to run a business but it's an even worse way to run a country the president did not directly answer a question about his specific charge against his predecessor at Friday's joint news conference with Germany's uncle Merkel the chairs and top Democrats and even Speaker Paul Ryan have declared they've seen no evidence that President Obama ordered wiretaps on the Trump campaign as part of an investigation into whether there were direct contacts between Trump Tower and Russian intelligence operatives but Schiff says as to the broader allegations the committee is studying at the outset of the investigation there is circumstantial evidence of collusion there is direct evidence I think of this section Republicans here Devin Nunes However on Fox News Sunday sees it much differently everything I have up to this morning. No evidence of collusion f.b.i. Director call me has not publicly acknowledged the agency is investigating any alleged Russian ties to the Trump campaign but it's a poorly kept secret in Washington considering Democrats and Republicans have been talking about it a lot Meanwhile there is another major hearing on the Senate side that you just might have forgotten about his nomination has been a bright spot for the Trump White House in that it state largely out of the spotlight and yogurts that she showed some independence last month when he told senators president Trump's criticism of judges holding up his temporary travel ban was not helpful during the campaign to soothe conservatives Mr Trump put out a list of $21.00 judges he would consider for Scully as vacancy including Gorsuch who sits on the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver he is probably the top pick by any Republican president on the list that Senator Lindsey Graham often a trump critic very pleased with or such and the White House believes the judge will eventually win some Democratic support Bob custom Teenie Washington 10 after Nel the White House is taking seriously North Korea's goal of perfecting a long range intercontinental ballistic missile Andrew Spencer has that President don't. Directed some of his attention this weekend to the Korean Peninsula meeting the North Koreans acting very badly with the Trump there on Air Force One commenting very briefly on the actions of Kim Jong un and North Korea's latest rocket engine test according to South Korea's defense ministry the test showed quote meaningful progress in engine performance that of course raises further concerns about Kim's stated intent of developing an intercontinental ballistic rocket armed with a nuclear warhead a weapon potentially capable of hitting the United States visiting Seoul over the weekend u.s. Secretary of state Rex Tillerson said a military option is on the table as the Trump administration reconsiders u.s. Policy on North Korea I mean international watchers that want a hardline approach could go to Kim into more action and who has the same kind if they were how the preface to North Korea could have been. How do North Korea's increasingly sophisticated missile program are already being felt in Japan where some school children have been involved in drills preparing for a potential missile strike I mean 3 Spencer It's 11 after next they really got going.

Chuck Berry was the original rock n roll guitarist he influenced hundreds if not thousands of bands through the decades his poses onstage define what a rocket's harvest should look like before Barry most guitars just stood there and maybe bounced up and down a little many of the people he influenced got to perform with him later on in his career putting members of the Beatles and of course the Rolling Stones probably know by.

This is America in the morning 23 before the hour I'm John trout sports with Robert workmen's coming up Russia's suspected election meddling will take center stage on Capitol Hill today Ryan Knoebels has a look just 22 days before Tom took office President Obama impose new sanctions on the Russian government on that same day incoming national security advisor Michael Flynn spoke on the phone with Russian ambassador surrogate kids Lee hack it was later revealed he also texted the Embassador and met with him in person at Trump Tower and administration official has told c.n.n. Trump associates including Vice President Mike Pence called the meetings introductory they did not discuss anything having to do with the United States' decision to expel diplomats or or impose a censure against Russia but that turned out not to be true Flynn specifically spoke about the sanctions but Flynn wasn't the only wise of Trump associates also held meetings with the ambassador at the Republican National Convention but insist they were only introductory gatherings attendee j.d. Gordon told c.n.n. Then Senator Jeff Sessions was one of them but appearing before a Senate hearing on his confirmation he said this when asked about possible contacts between the Trump campaign and Russian officials not have communications with the Russians. And I'm unable to comment on it but after taking office sessions now attorney general admitted that he too as a senator met with his lay at twice during the campaign but he said it was in his capacity as a senator not a member of the trunk campaign sessions decided to recuse himself from any investigation related to the campaign amidst all this the president himself took to Twitter making this shocking claim quote how low has President Obama gone to tap my phones during this very sacred election process this is Nixon slash Watergate bad or sick guy he accused. Was made without any evidence to back it up but led the White House to ask Congress to add this wrinkle to their broad investigation into Russia's role in the election but at this point even Republicans contend the evidence just isn't there. 21 till President Trump holds a campaign style rally in Kentucky tonight Terry Moore has a preview Republican leaders are confident they have the votes needed to pass the bill which aims to repeal and replace Obamacare President Trump has been talking with some reluctant Republicans in claims he is helping to convert no votes into yes votes we are doing some incredible thing I want everyone to know I'm 100 percent in a White House photo op chewed on the news media I want everybody to know that the press has not been speaking properly about how great this is going to be the press is but as you know in many cases I caught the fake news in a later news conference the president predicted victory it's all coming together when I have great health care it's going to be passed I believe I think substantially pretty quickly it's coming together beautifully Democrats point to the report from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office that the g.o.p. Bill will cause more than $20000000.00 Americans to lose their health insurance coverage over the next 10 years Democrats also claim the Republican bill gives a big tax break to the wealthy I'm Terry Moore in Washington 28 still we shift gears as we welcome in Jimbo Hannan we hope that you have all seen the motion picture hidden figures which of course receive some acknowledgement of the Academy Awards I would equally hope that you will read the book behind it all hidden figures published by William Morrow and written by Margot Lee's Shetterly who for those who actually have not seen it are not aware of this this is a century the story of 3 African-American women mathematicians and the disrespect growing into some respect that they got from NASA back at the beginning of the space race war about. The story is actually there are 3 women featured in the movie and there's a 4th woman in the book who was just in college when those 3 ladies were doing their excellent work in the early sixty's but you know it's an amazing adventure story and it happened to take place in the town where I grew up Hampton Virginia and that your mother is I guess a key inspirational figure in all of this too Yeah well actually my father was the one who really he worked at NASA and so I grew up knowing Catherine Johnson and Mary Jackson and Dorothy didn't know Dorothy fun but Christine Darden as a consequence of working at NASA and I you know really looked to these women as as wonderful people in our community but it wasn't until I started writing this book that I really understood the full import of of their service to to our country and to science that if you've not seen the movie or if you have there's a portion of it in which they are referred to as human computers let's hear that what's the status of that computer is at the times in the Sahara. Desert and all analytic geometry. Absolutely and. Gets back to. Which one. I think you can find me the from a frame for this data using the grams. Over Euclidean going. And so it went that was one of the more dignified moments of the stories told in the book and the movie hadn't figures of course some of the treatment portrayed in the movie just for example the use of bathrooms in which we had had a woman who had to go running from building to building to find. A colored woman's bathroom it seems awfully archaic by today's standards but tell us more about that the treatment that these women had. To be subject to do yeah well you know the fact is this story you know the book starts in 1940 s. During World War 2 when it goes up I'm actually to the 1970 s. But you know one of the things that is true both the book and the movie is that it you know all of this stuff took place during the time of Jim Crow segregation and Virginia what that meant was colored bathrooms colored cafeteria you know it meant that even as these women were doing some of the most cutting agile aeronautical research in the world they were still subject to these these humiliating laws that that legally made them 2nd class citizens so so yeah this is you know the scenes that you see and what you read about the the women having to negotiate these these details like the bathrooms This is very much a part of the story it occurs to me that the story in hidden figures is very much a product of that time if you were to go back earlier before there was a space program set of the thirty's or the twenty's Well people would evolve Of course they can't possibly do this or they're not only black but they're they're women and they would even have been considered today of course they would be judged I would hope completely on their ability but in that era you had both the segregation that was at that time beginning to be challenged in the courts and in the laws but you also somewhere somebody came up with the recognition wow these women are really smart that I found a fascinating interplay because it had to Kurt of people every day you know if they're so smart why are we treating them like this you know and really the answer that our one you know kind of the keys to that mystery of how did they start saying that part of that was World War 2 you know World War 2 changed so many things in our society essentially the demand for labor really forced the hand of a lot of people and they said well you know we just need to get people in here it's their woman if they're black if they're black Everybody has their Glock u.k.
