He was supposed to leave about half an hour ago. I assume hes raising a lot of money. How much are people paying for this . Reporter its a very pricey event, anderson, 35,000 a head. And theyre expecting about 300 guests. An rnc spokesperson told us earlier theyre expecting to make 10 million here at the trump hotel tonight. And those are protesters outside, thats what youre speaking over . And this one reporter yes, yes, excuse the noise. Theres a guy to my left with two megaphones who is protesting donald trump outside of his own hotel here in washington. Do you know how much the trump hotel is getting paid to host this event . Reporter no. Thats one thing we have not gotten answered today despite the fact we have made multiple requests. I made one recently even half an hour ago, and we still dont know who is paying for this event at the trump hotel tonight. Is it the rnc who is splitting this fundraiser with the president . Is it the president s Reelection Campaign . Or did the hote
Cnn nuews headquarters, newsroom starts right now. And the u. S. President turned to twitter on friday to show his frustration to replace the Affordable Care act, he also held an important meeting with south koreas president to discuss how to best deal with north korea. Really important issues, im sure youll all agree its all being overshadowed with President Trumps ongoing twitter spats with two journalists. Reporter President Trump issued yet another dire warning on the threat posed by north korea. The era of strategic patience with the north korean regime has failed. Many years, and its failed. And frankly, that patience is over. Reporter but as the president was leaving the rose garden nearly all the questions shou shouted at him were not about National Security they were about the president s tweets and his ongoing war of words with msnbc host Joe Scarborough and mika brzezinski. Who now aallege that white house aides made them go softer and that will kill a story. He said if you
Was on lockdown. It was a scary situation. The plane collided and spun across the freeway and burst into planes. The pilot and his passenger are injured but alive. This is new day weekend with Victor Blackwell and christi paul. Welcome to saturday on your first day of july. Lets start with what President Trump is doing this morning. He is kicking off the Holiday Weekend in new jersey. He will be back in washington later today to honor veterans. He is scheduled to deliver remarks at a concert at the Kennedy Center. The president preparing for the g20 summit. He will come face to face with russian president Vladmir Putin. Will the president bring up russias interference. Will there be any chance to improve relations as both leaders hoped for back in november. Fallout from the president s disparaging tweets about a tv news host leading to claims of a tabloid hit story and questions about whether the president threatened to threaten the anchors over coverage. Did the white house use the Na
Misogynistic. The president unhappy about criticisms made about him on msnbc morning joe. Lashed out, i hear poorly rated go speaking badly about me, dont watch anymore. Then how come mika along with fike sew joe came to maralago three nights in a row around new years eve, and insisted on joining me. And after ivanka trump bemoaned how nasty washington and politics are. Theres a level of viciousness. I was not expecting. I was expecting the intensity of this experience. But this isnt supposed to be easy. White house said President Trump was merely punching back, fighting fire with fire since the hosts of morning joe have attacked President Trump. This is how President Trump sees that it criticism from the media or anyone needs to be fought back. Its been very clear ever since the campaign banned reporters from the Des Moines Register back in 2015 because mr. Trump didnt like the editorial the newspaper wrote that he has a problem with criticism. This president first came to political p
Bestarmed, most dangerous terrorist group in the world has lost its biggest city, the selfdeclared caliphate, the socalled Islamic State is no more. Isis still holds some territory including the city of raqqah in syria, but that is not a state. And raqqah is now surrounded on all sides. Defeating the Islamic State is perhaps the biggest accomplishment of American Foreign policy in years. But there were no big announcements from the white house, no Mission Accomplished moment. If you watched our reports from here, you already know that iraqi troops did most of the ground fighting. The same iraqi army that once fled from isis stood up, fought hard, and won. But make no mistake. That only happened because american troops were deeply involved in this battle at every stage. As we will show you tonight, american fire power cleared the path for iraqi soldiers, and the americans provided a constant stream of intelligence, logistics, and planning. It wouldnt have happened without us. The questi
