Lets get to it. First from the fox news deck on this busy monday, the white house still will neither confirm nor deny that President Trump has tapes of his conversations with the former fbi director james comey. Analysts say that is making the white houses effort to respond to criticism of his firing even more difficult. The search is on for a new fbi director. Heres what the president said about it when speaking with the crown prince of abudhabi. Thank you all very much. Thank you. Shepard thats today. Friday President Trump warned james cocmey not the speak out about his firing. Its worth noting the president put tapes in quotes there, similar to when he put wires tapped in march when he made his unfounded claim that president obama ordered surveillance at trump tower. The president said the use of quotes opened the phrase to a broad definition of surveillance. The president used tap not in quotes. So far the white house has not said what the president meant when he tweeted about tap
Wing . Hi ana, this is not a good week for moral when it comes to white house staffer. Particularly, the communication staff. We are talking about a press shop that did not know and kept out of the loop about the president s decision to fire the fbi director until practicely when ultimately contradicted by the president himself.

Not sure how far along they are past that, but the president says this is a search that is moving along and could be over in the next few days or after he gets back from his trip to the middle east. In terms of this idea of a staff shakeup. The prospect of a massive staff shakeup that would involve a lot of members of senior staff and his cabinet is quote nonsense although there is some speculation that the chief of staff may be on the bubble but theres been talk of that since way back in june. Also some talk about a shakeup at the communications slot. After the web of communications i think got tangled coming out of the announcement that james comey was being fired last tuesday. So nothing has been cooked yet, im told, but there could be some moves coming in the next few days. Melissa whats next on the substance of that
