Final conversation with the press which is expected just moments from now . Yeah, about 15 minutes from now, if they get started on time. Although if you know how things go, you probably dont expect them to start at 2 15. Well probably get fireworks, especially given the big news yesterday, this is our last chance to interrogate the president while in office. The big story, the could mutation of Chelsea Mannings prison sentence. Plenty to talk about that this afternoon. If you wonder how the president might tackle that question, heres what he said, make that his press secretary said earlier today. The president made a decision to commute her sentence, because her 35year sentence was much longer than the sentence that was handed down to people who committed similar crimes. That got much less attention. Expect the president to get drilled about the price an at dpant mow bay, he said he would shut it down and he didnt. And the strained relationship with russia and president vladimir putin

Invitation was extended during a march 20th phone call that President Trump put in to president putin to congratulate him. Should the two meet, it would be the first time that putin met on american soil since 1915. They often meet on the sidelines at major conferences. Last time they met for any sort of length of time was at the g20 summit in hamburg. There were no conferences that are going to happen that would bring the two leaders to the same place at the same time until november, so any meeting they would have would have to be especially arranged bilateral meeting. They are in a diplomatic tit for tat. Tensions are high over the expulsion of 60 Russian Diplomats and intelligence operatives from the response in response to that nerve agent attack in the u. K. Russia announcing it was going to kick out a bunch of american diplomats. But a kremlin spokesman holding out hope of a law saying a meeting, quote, would be rather important and beneficial for both countries, as well as for th

And it is really a Court Changing potential nominee. Greg kavanaugh has a long list of rulings from his time as a d. C. Circuit court judge. A long history here. The
We dont have him yet. Were gonna go to our first guest. Dan crenshaw. Dan crenshaw, youre the republican candidate for the 2nd district of texas which is in houston. Thanks for making the trip here. The caravan is moving north. We were talking right before the show. They are actually going to demand entry into the United States. Is it too much for the president to be warning people about the dangers of this . Its definitely not too much. When you have 5,000 and 7,000 people demanding entry. Thats what theyre doing, demanding entry. It hurts the case for legal immigrants. In texas we have a relationship between latinos and tech san. My stepmother is a legal immigrant. We all know and are friends with or have family that has legally immigrated. This hurts the case for them when you have thousands of people demanding entry. Its not sustainable either. Its not sustainable from a security perspective, our education system, our health care systems. This has to be enforced. I dont think its u
