thanks so much for joining me today on this busy news friday. next week even more. i m jim sciutto. i hope you have a great weekend. at this hour with erica hill today starts right now. hello, everyone. here s what we re watching at this hour. a bombshell report on just what was happening at the justice department during the trump administration. secret investigation to find the source of leaks and investigation targeting democrats in congress. president budiden hinting at meeting but first critical meeting with his g7 at lies. what do we need to know before younger children can be vaccinated. of shots in the coming months may be too soon. but what does that mean for the fight against the pandemic?
an agreement on a global minimum tax, for example. a 15% president biden, of course, is supported that as are all the others. but the biggest part of this, i think, is the relationships that are building. president trump who, of course, for four years really rattled this establishment no longer here. president biden wants to say america is back and show that is the case. but of course all of this is leading into his meeting next week with russian president putin. he was asked earlier this morning about what that meeting would look like. mr. president, what is your message to putin? i will deliver it. so says he says he ll tell you us after he delivers it. this follows just a couple days ago. he said i will let putin know what he needs to know. so clearly a lot of talk about tough talk, if if you will. but the pount ofint of meeting s of democracy first is to create
make sure there are other proposals, climate change proposals included as well as enough money for mass transit from a lot of lawmakers. those are the items that they re going to be looking for. so i think that we have to let this play out in part because democrats and republicans are going to have to see if they can get broader buy in from not just those members who are in the middle and have been negotiating privately for several weeks. erica? all right. we ll continue to watch it. as we know, you will. thank you so much. just ahead, president biden on the world stage. his first g7 summit as president now under way. and his message for putin ahead of their meeting. next. welcome back to that same old place that you laughed about
turn up anything. but what is so significant here is that typically when the department of justice is going after members of congress, it is because of some sort of public corruption investigation. or other types of crimes. it s rare to see the department of justice simply go after a president s political enemies for the sole purpose of he didn t like the leaks that were coming out of what he thought was the house intelligence committee. so this the subpoena was extraordinarily broad. shocking that you would go after members of congress and then further you would go after the person connections, family members and even more startling is this dragnet swept up data from a child, a minor was involved in this in some capacity. we know it s just the metadat yachlt we don t know the contents of the communications. it is really shocking. it follows a pattern we ve seen. we have a full screen up to bring this would be into clearer view. because here is who doj had gone after.
