She accused bannon of blocking a school, because he didnt want the girls going to school with jews. Ban onhas denied that accusation. He was responsible for several attentiongrabbing moments. Including this press conference with multiple bill clinton power, but his job will be to keep trump as somebody who is distinctly outside the political system. In response to a cbs inquiry about the altright movement, the spokesperson said nothing could be further from the truth.

There are new questions about the role president elect Donald Trumps children will play in his administration. Cbs news has learned the Transition Team has asked the white house how trumps oldest children and soninlaw would go about getting top secre security clearances. Julianna goldman broke this story and has the details from washington. Reporter well, the sources tell us that the president elect Donald Trumps Transition Team is looking to tap some of his Adult Children as National Security advisers, and that they would in the be able to receive the top security clearances. Now, even if it doesnt happen during the transition, trump would still be able to put in prosecu president. Now looking at the rules, the nepotism rules does not stop them from working in the white house. It is common for others to get top secret security measures, but family members is something unprecedented, given that his kids dont have National Security backgrounds. Now watch dogs ar alarms, saying that the fact wants his Children Armed with access to some of the top secret issues raises questions about them playing a role in the administraton and also running the businesses and whether they could use that for financial business. Now, last night, the reporter was told that trump did not request this for his children and that trump had not filled clearances. The spokesperson said it is not something i expect right now. And the Senate Relations Committee Bob corker was tapped to be nominated as secretary of state. But that appears to be going to Rudy Giuliani. There was a discussion on cbs this morning. Look, i think we let this process complete. We know who the person is. It is going to be my job to lead the confirmation but handicap people at this moment would just be inappropriate. Lets let it play out. What would you like to see in a secretary of state . Well, obviously, its the person who is best able to advance our National Interests around the world. And obviously, its someone that has to deal with diplomats, but at the same time i think we see that there is going to be pretty president as to how he addresses many issues. Someone is going to have to have the ability and be in an environment where theyre productive and able to do that. Look, this is the beginning, i know that people are just getting started. And lets let this play out and i do look forward to helping out in any way i can in the confirmation process. Well, secretary your name did come up as a candidate. Steve bannon, we dont know your feelings about that. Well, that is somebody who i dont know, Reince Priebus is somebody i had dinner with and spent a lot of time with. I think he will be a great chief of staff. The other gentleman, i had never met. I was listening to your reporting just a moment ago and learned some things that i have so well see. You didnt know that steve bannon was the head of breitbart, and that they had headlines like that. I did hear of him, but am learning as i go. He is the first to hear that he was designating his children National Security advisers so security clearances. We also know that they will be running mr. Trumps Large Business empire. Do you see a conflict of interest . First of all, its my understanding and i dont know, i think youre reporting what youve heard. My understanding they didnt actually make that request. They asked if it was appropriate. At least one of his aides mentioned. But my guess is that that is not going to happen. That is not the conflict would not likely exist. Well, president elect trump has spoken with Vladimir Putin as head of the Foreign Relations committee. How do you see that going . Look, there are some things we have in common with russia and should work with them, terrorism is one of those. On the other hand, putin has face it has worked against our national interest. I think its always positive when two leaders of a country begin on a positive note. Obviously, mr. Putin will have to change the way he deals with the world for that to be a constructive relationship. Maybe with mr. Trump being in office that will change. T guess i wont be seeing you for a while.

So it sat on the top shelf of the kitchen pantry, through all the arguments of dishes un doors, even when they thought it was not worth it any more, brandon and kathy refused to surrender to the last wedding present. They finally opened the gift recently, not because they were fighting but because they were not, and had not for quite sometime. After nine years of solving their differences, brandon and kathy felt they would not need it any more. What they found was remarkable, salts, nothing that could really stop a fight at all. And that is when it hit them. That the real gift was not anything in the box. That the real gift, the Priceless Gift had been staring at them all along. Everything we needed we had between us. We just had to figure it out on our own. Reporter by not turning to the box, brandon and kathy say they were forced to learn tolerance, compromise and patience. Something we could all use more because there is nothing magical about wedding gifts or ballot boxes. The keys to harmony are in us, all we have to do is dig deep and find them.

Julianna goldman broke this story and has the details from washington. Well, the sources tell us that the president elect Donald Trumps Transition Team is looking to designate some of his Adult Children as National Security advisers that they would then be able to receive the top secret clearances. Now even if it doesnt happen during the transition trump would still be able to put in the request once he becomes nepotism rules prevent the president from letting his family work in the white house, but they do not stop him from hiring them as paid or private advisers. Now, it is common for them to get secret security clearances, but totally unprecedented for his children, given they dont have security backgrounds. Now bells, trump says he wants his Children Armed with security to some of the top secrets in the nation.

What would you like to see in a secretary of state . Well, obviously, its the person who is best able to advance our National Interests around the world. And obviously, its someone that has to deal with diplomats. But at the same time i think we see that there is going to be pretty much of a sort of a seat how we address many issues. So you know someone is going to have to have the ability and be in an environment where they were productive and able to do that. Look, this is the beginning. I know people are just getting started. And lets let this play out and i do look forward to helping in any way i can in the confirmation process. Well, senator, your name did come up as a possible secretary of state candidate. Have you talked to the president elect or would you be interested in the job . Congratulated him as i did Vice President pence. But we have had no discussions about this. Im reading the same things that yall are reading and watching the same things that you know youre reporting. And again, that is up to them.

President elect donald trump could be trying to top secret security clearances for his children, and we also know they will be running his businesses. Do you see a possible conflict of interest . I think you are reporting what you have heard. My understanding was they didnt make that request. They asked if it was appropriate. My guess is that is not going to happen. I dont think that is the norm. Not exist. Well, president elect trump has spoken with russian president Vladimir Putin as head of the senate Foreign Relations committee.
