Orld dana a short while after that, north korea issued a newor threat. E. To attack the u. S. Pacific territory of guam. What are americas options with dealing with the menace . There is always a militaryc option. Its why you pay 600 billionay a year, there are always optiony to have a military option. Its an ugly option. You cannot play elements of power and then discount thatleme theres no military option. Dana for more insight, lets bring in jack keane. Former army chief of staff and analyst. Sir, the North Koreans want the Nuclear Weapons so they can preserve its regime but if they use Nuclear Weapons, it would be the end of its regime. Where are we tonight .

And he just tweeted i made a mistake in trusting a reporter. It wont happen again. No word yet from that reporter. Sarah sanders weighed in earlier. Anthony put out a statement here just moments ago stating that this is a guy who sometimes uses colorful and in many circles probably not appropriate language. Hes very passionate about the president and his agenda and i think he may have let that get the best of him in that conversation. Dana theres a lot more developing tonight. Lets go to the white house and bring in ed henry with the latest from there. Ed. All these fascinating developments. Anthony scaramucci has not even been officially on the staff here and it was barely a week ago, six weeks ago that he was at the white house podium being introduced as an incoming aid. So much has happened since then. He is supposed to be the Incoming White House communication director, trying to sharpen the message back on the president s big agenda. Jobs, health care, obviously playing out in the
We had a number of senators tell us tonight they know how they are going to vote, but they are not telling us how they are going to vote, so that must be nerveracking for the leadership type who are counting votes. A lot of democrats will be stressed out coming in and out of the chamber. At this point, it is up to the republicans. Either they have the votes or they dont. The democrats dont have a mechanism to stop it at this point. Bret what about the senators claim that the democrats were shut out from the beginning . Cannot be backed up . Has it been completely shut down . There have been a lot of complaints. Theyve complained that this has been crafted by leader mcconnell, and they dont feel like it was as open of a process as possible. No democrat was going to vote for anything that had any type to repeal. They put that wall there in the beginning. They want to talk about fixing obamacare which is a fundamental difference.

Previously estimated. As the u. S. Intensifies its International Campaign to keep the kim regime in check. North korea has a Nuclear War Head small enough to fit in a missile.

Already pressing allies and adversaries to enforce sanctions against north korea. Isolated and constrict its resources. One analyst says this report introduces new urgency to that campaign. The time horizon in which the u. S. Has to act as if it is trying to prevent north korea from getting its capability has been shortened dramatically.

Sean, good to see see you. The stakes could not be any higher. They believe north korea has been able to miniaturize Nuclear Warheads that can fit inside missiles. This follows last months test of a longrange Intercontinental Ballistic Missile that could reach the u. S. Mainland. When you put these two major developments together, it means north korean dictator kim jong un is on the verge of having Nuclear Warheads that can reach major American Cities from los angeles to new york. It would be intolerable for north korea to possess Nuclear Weapons they could reach our shores, which is why the commanderinchief seems to be making it clear today that all options including more are on the table. North korea best not make any more threats to the United States. They will be met with fire and fury. Like the world has never seen. She has been very threatening. Beyond norl statement. Theyill e m with fire, fury, and frankly, power. The likes of which this world has never seen before. Dianne fein
