Assistant to george w. Bush. Scott, let me start with you, were there echos of the axis of evil speech that president bush spoke about before the war against Saddam Hussein in 2003 . This definitely had shades of that remark and im glad to see that because during the campaign, donald trump ran as something of an isolationist and if you watched todays speech, he took you on a World Tour Of American Priorities and american engagement. If you were expecting donald trump the isolationist you did not get that today. It was a firm and measured speech today, he spoke in clear terms. I was proud to see him call out the programs on petfar and malaria that the United States has invested in. I think he hit all the right notes for his american audience. I think his base will love it. I think a lot of americans agree with his message on reforming the u. N. And some gallup polling conducted earlier this year, only 37 of americans felt the u. N. Was doing a good job and
60 thought it was doing a bad

President trump just got a blistering salvo from another republican senator, arizonas jeff flake, who slammed the president on the senate floor while announcing he wont run for reelection in 2018. Flake, a trump critic who has been attacked repeatedly by the president , said reckless, outrageous and undignified behavior from the top of our government is dangerous to a democracy. He accused the president of the United States of undermining americas norms and values. And that came after the president went to capitol hill to talk tax reform with Senate Republicans over lunch. But there may have been cases of indigestion as the meal was proceeded today by a breathtaking war of words between the president and senator bob corker, who will also not run again in 2018. After corker urged the white house to leave tax reform to the professionals, the president lashed out on twitter, claiming falsely that corker helped president obama with the iran

Coverage. Adam is then fox extreme Weather Center. We begin with Steve Harrigan who is in san juan, puerto rico, right now. We speak of the rain is heavier than it has been all morning and thats creating Flash Flooding with some River Gates Being opened up. The winds have gusted here on the back end of this storm to over 100 Miles Per Hour. The worst of the wins came at about 9 00 in the morning with sustained gusts of more than 104 to 5 Miles Per Hour. Those were winds enough to tear the sides of some buildings. We just saw bits and pieces of buildings fly through the air and tops of trees have also snapped off.

No electric power, no Emergency Rescue services, if they have a portable radio, thats what theyre hearing. Otherwise theyre hearing the

Hes made comments about the assassination of journalists and hes joked, his Administration Says it was a joke about murdering somebody whether he he was younger. This is somebody who is not a traditional leader ally like you might see in other parts of the region. Yet, the president and white house have talked about this friendly relationship between the two. I think you saw that here in manila. The two toasting. At one point duterte singing a love song in honor of the president , getting up on stage and delivering this duet with lyrics like you are the light of my life, the half of my heart. So clearly the two of them working on this relationship. The president seeming to hope the Good Chemistry leads to good policy. Again, questions on why no mention of Human Rights Abuses here. That is similar to what we saw from President Trump in china, for example, and on past overseas trips. Im thinking of the one, for example, over to saudi earlier in the year. Back in may.
