A roundup of the days events. Hillary clinton. Did ivanka know about it . The president tonight responding to his own daughters words, and abcs Kyra Phillips leading us off. Reporter they were the pictures that stunned the nation. Migrant children in detention centers, thousands of them separated from their parents by the trump administration. Today, ivanka trump speaking out for the first time, describing it as low point for her. A low point in the white house for a number of your colleagues was the kids at the border issue. What is your view of that . Yes. That was a low point for me, as well. I feel very strongly about that, and i am very vehemently against family separation. I am a daughter of an immigrant.

Doh spicer. All right, so, the white house used to claim that the president s tweets are not just idle opinionating, theyre official statements with the power of the white house behind him. How many times have people working for the president said the president s tweet speaks for itself or words to that effect . Except for todays tweet. That apparently doesnt speak for itself. That needs a spokesperson and a tv lawyer speaking for it, sweeping up after it, quietly trying to wipe it off the bottom of their shoes. When the president of the United States says that one of his subordinates should do something and do it now, how is that just one guys opinion .

A newscast reviewing and analyzing top stories of the day as they happen. Mandate was originally and whether or not there was any collusion between the Trump Campaign and russia to try to influence the election. In his response letter, mueller said, no, i want to talk about the issues that go to obstruction as well. Im not sure where that leaves things right now. I know that the president s attorneys are formulating a response. Theyll likely have that next week. They dont want to let the president sit down with mueller and talk oneonone about these issues of obstruction. They might be willing to submit some written answers on the question. Mueller has said he would accept written answers in person also. What is interesting as well today about the Press Briefing, President Trump has talked about there being no credibility of this russian investigation, calling it a witch hunt, talking about malign actors at the fbi. Chris wray was asked why we should believe what hes saying about protec
