Reporter President Trump today suggested special Council Robert mueller is tainted and politically biased against him. Well, hes very, very good friends with comey, which is very bothersome. The people that have been hired are all Hillary Clinton supporters, some of them worked for Hillary Clinton. I mean, the whole thing is ridiculous if you want to know the truth from that standpoint. But Robert Mueller is an honorable man and hopefully hell come up with an honorable solution. Reporter today, White House PressSecretary Sean Spicer said the president has no plans to fire mueller, but insisted he does have the power to do so. While he retains the authority, he has no intention of doing that. Reporter trump today also offered a new explanation for why he had hitted he recorded his conversations with james comey. It was a bluff, he said, to force comey to tell the truth. I didnt tape. But when he found out that, you know, that there may be tapes out there, whether its governmental tapes or anything else, and who knows, i think his story may have changed. It was a smart way to make sure he stayed honest in those hearings. Well, it wasnt it wasnt very stupid. Reporter but what trumps tweet about tapes did was trigger a sequence of events that led to the appointment of a special council. Now conducting a preliminary investigation into possible obstruction of justice by the president. And comey went on to give damning testimony anyway, much of which the president has said is simply not true. He did say under oath that you told him to let the flynn you said you hoped the flynn vest game, you could i didnt say that. Reporter so, he lied about that . Well, i didnt say that. I mean, i will tell you, i didnt say that. And jon karl with us live tonight at the white house. And jon, another headline breaking today. The Washington Post reporting that president obama knew that Vladimir Putin was directly involved in the russian hacking and that he had words with putin himself about it, but the post reports that president obama did not punish russia harshly because he was convinced Hillary Clinton was going to win . Reporter in fact, the poels reports that the cia in early august delivered an envelope marked eyes only, directly to president obama and three of his top aides.

Reporter at least four moderate republicans are concerned the bills cuts go too far. But four conservatives say they will oppose the bill because it doesnt go far enough. The bill may spend more in the next year or two than obamacare does. All right tonight, even President Trump admits getting the votes will be difficult. Its a very complicated situation from the standpoint, you do something thats good for one group, but bad for another. Its a very, very narrow path. A narrow path, says the president.

Afi sure had a lot on my mind. My 30year marriage. My 3month old business. Plus. What if this happened again . I was given warfarin in the hospital, but wondered, was this the best treatment for me . So i made a point to talk to my doctor. He told me about eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots. Eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Eliquis had both. And that turned around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made eliquis right for me. Ask your doctor if switching to eliquis is right for you. Finally tonight here, a father who rode his bike 1,400 miles, fueled by his love for his daughter. And when he got there, a moment that was truly extraordinary. And the sound he heard that made the entire trip worth it. Tonight, right here, meet our person of the week. Bill conner is a father on a mission. He started in madison, wisconsin, in may, and hes been riding his bike ever since. He is doing it to honor his late daughter, abbey who he lost suddenly when she was 20 years old in a tragic drowning. In that moment, the family made a difficult choice. Abbeys organs were donated. She loved everybody. If you were her friend, you were lucky. She loved to laugh, and shes a hugger. And thats one of the things that ive been doing along the ride. Reporter her father setting off on a 2,000mile journey to bring awareness to organ donation. Along the way, hes discovered the kindness of strangers. Taking selfies with people who have given him so much. From the day that ive left to where im at today, the amount of people, strangers, that have gone out of their way to take me in, give me shelter, a meal and a shower has just been unbelievable. Reporter but it was his stop 1,400 miles in, arriving in baton rouge that left him speechless. This is jack, 21 years old, he was given abbeys heart. That father, bill, couldnt let go. And jack, grateful for his daughters heart. And then, jack walks up to him, saying happy fathers day. Happy fathers day. Oh. Reporter he gives bill a stethoscope. Hes about to hear his daughters heart. There it goes. The beauty of that was is that there were two fathers that were able to celebrate fathers day, because jacks alive, and, of course, im there, and abbeys alive. Shes alive, to me, shes alive inside of jack. Its not about how many cars you have or homes you have or how much money, i mean, to give somebody life, even in a tragedy like this, youre able to give somebody an organ to help them live or live a better life . So, my daughter just, again, set an example for me and ive got to follow it. And thats what im trying to do. So, we choose bill conner and all of the families in this country who, during loss, find the strength to help save another life. Thank you for watching here on a friday night.
