Good wednesday morning, everyone. The first signs of discord shaking up Donald Trumps Transition Team as top advisers and lobbyists get the boot. Trump broke protocol last night by ditching his press corps going out to dinner with his family unannounced. And after getting his first daily president ial briefing along with trump, miknc joe biden. Abcs janai norman has the latest from d. C. Reporter donald trump out of the public eye but back on twitter writing the process for picking cabinet members is very organized though it appears to be anything but. Cracks beginning to show as key members of the Transition Team purged. Former congressman mike rogers, one of trumps Top National Security advisers, abruptly resigning reportedly pushed out. This as governor Chris Christie from the transition, and a low level staffer gone for making an inquiry into security clearances for trumps children. Senior adviser Kellyanne Conway forced to respond. That, i dont know. I only know what i read in the paper. I just know that that was never a formal request. Reporter at the same time criticism continues over trumps pick for chief strategist, steve bannon, former chair of Breitbart News. People didnt vote for donald trump so that he could bring a white supremacist into the white house. Reporter late tuesday the president elect leaving to dinner with his family after telling the press he was in for the night. The move breaking tradition of always having journalists on hand to report the president s whereabouts. [ chanting ] and the protests havent let up. In the nations capital, hundreds of students taking over pennsylvania avenue shutting down the lincoln memorial. Too young to vote but making sure their voices are heard. We want to let donald trump know that he cannot divide us that bigotry. Reporter and the president elect tweeting if the election were based on total popular votes, he would have campaigned more in new york, california and florida saying he would have won even bigger and more easily. As of now Hillary Clinton is up in the popular vote. Diane and kendis. Yeah, thats right, janai. Shes up more than 800,000 votes. Janai from washington. And donald trump has security clearance for his soninlaw. Ivanka trumps husband Jared Kushner is one of his closest advisers. If approved, hell be able to sit in on daily president ial briefings. This is the the latest in a series of untraditional moves by trump. As trump prepares to fill more top jobs, ben carson as janai norman mentioned there has taken himself out of the running. His top adviser says carson would not accept a cabinet position because despite running for president , carson felt he didnt have the experience to run an entire federal agency. And the Vice President elect he effectively dismantled the structure that Chris Christie had set up. The move comes after donald trump was questioned about welcoming lobbyists that he railed against during his campaign. And this was kind of interesting. Former rival ted cruz also met with trump yesterday. Senator cruz didnt reveal any details of his meeting, but some reports say he is being considered for attorney general. Cruz would only say that hes looking forward to working closely with trump and pence to repeal obamacare and confirm a conservative Supreme Court and Outgoing Senate minority leader harry reid is calling on trump to rescind his appointment of steve bannon as chief strategist. Reid slammed bannon in a speech from the senate floor over his leadership at Breitbart News which aligns itself with White Nationalist views. As long as a champion of Racial Division is a step away from the oval office, it will be impossible to take trumps efforts to heal the nation seriously, so i say to donald rise to the dignity of the office of president of the United States instead of hiding behind your twitter account. Reid also blamed trumps election for sparking a wave of hate crimes, but he said democrats would work with trump whenever they can. And Hillary Clinton is expected to make her first public appearance since the election. Shes being honored in washington, d. C. Tonight by the childrens defense fund, the organization she worked for in the 70s after graduating from law school. President obama is spending a second day in greece after trying to explaido the president is touring the acropolis, the countrys most famous ancient monument. Yesterday he acknowledged that trumps victory took him by surprise saying it stemmed from deepseated anxieties among the working class, and he made it clear that he doesnt feel responsible for what the president elect says or does. Meanwhile, violence broke out in athens as thousands of protesters rallied against the president s visit and riot police had to use tear gas and stun grenades to disperse the the president s trip comes just days before greek leftists hold annual antiamerican demonstrations. And far across the Mediterranean Sea in syria, Bashar Al Assads government begins a new offensive in aleppo. Air strikes killed at least ten people in rebelheld areas. Its the first bombing in more than two weeks. The strikes came as russia started a major operation against rebels that could put tens of thousands more civilians in danger. The bombs fell just hours after Vladimir Putin spoke with donald trump about joining forces to stop international terrorism. For the motive in the deadly shooting at an Oklahoma City main airport. Police say 52yearold Southwest Airlines worker Michael Winchester was killed in an ambush yesterday at will rogers world airport. The shooter was found dead from a selfinflicted gunshot. The airport was shut down for hours amid worries about multiple shooters. They did not know whether the person was hiding, sleeping, deceased or otherwise.
