Important. This president understands that he has to work across the political spectrum in order to achieve any advancement of his agenda items. He knows that. Tonights speech will be one that focuses on a number of important issues, economic prosperity, International Cooperation and safety. By the way, keep your ears piqued for something about a major announcement with an international relation. I got that nugget from a friend. To be sure well hear a great deal about Border Security. White house Senior Advisor Kellyanne Conway has seen a draft of the speech and this morning she shared her impression. I think its uplifting address to celebrate milestones in american greatness including those that have anniversaries coming up in 2019. He is calling for working together. Theyll need to decide if theyre serious about that as well. He wants to legislature to do its job. It failed to do it for a matter of years if not decades. Democrats are expected to bring people tonight to strongly oppos
The president is about to arrive for a beiig rally. He says it will be on the democrats if the americans go without a paycheck this year. We need a wall and all the other things are nice to have. Without a wall, its not going to work. We can have technology, beautiful drones flying all over the place. But it doesnt work without the wall. We need a wall. We can call it anything. Well call it barriers, whatever they want. Okay. Tonight the president is making the case in el paso, which, by the way is a city that voted overwhelming for president. Only 26 of voters cast ballot for him there. So why go there . Well, tonight, team trump is releasing a video from el paso that claim the wall has made them safer.

Headquarters in atlanta, we want to welcome our viewers here in the United States and all around the world. Im george howell. Im natalie allen. Newsroom starts right now. Thank you for joining us. 5 00 a. M. In atlanta, georgia. We appreciate it. We begin with the white house and the impeachment inquiry. The ukraine scandal now engulfing the Trump White House and its moving rapidly on multiple fronts. Here are the latest developments. House democrats have subpoenaed the white house to turn over documents and other records related to ukraine, after the administration ignored a request to do so voluntarily. And the Vice President of the United States, mike pence, hes in the mix now. His meetings in poland with ukraines new leader have prompted a request for documents. U. S.

But politically, this us versus them argument, does it work in his favor leading up to the 2020 election . I dont think it works in his favor. I do think it plays well to the base. When he brings up the names of these Congress Women at these rallies, you know, he gets, you know, a huge response from this.
