lawyering up to investigate potential determinations against people of all races. watch. the new york times article is based entirely on on cooperated inferences from a leaked internal personnel posting in violation of departments of justice policy. and while the white house does not deny or confirm any existing investigation, the white house will always on the basis of any race. that was this afternoon. and a few moments ago, the justice department came out and denied all of this even more vehemently. they revealed, they are hiring more lawyers to investigate a complaint filed by 64 asian american associations, alleging discrimination at harvard university. they first alleged this in 2015, sent it to the obama justice department, and they never fully acted on it. so, this is basically a case of alleged disk alleged disconnection against asian american students. not white students, as the new york times suggested, and it is a leftover from something the obama did administration
sean spicer is said reported about the new york times to a vehemently disagreed with appointment of anthony scaramucci as the munication s director. the president reportedly requested that spicer stay on, but spicer told him that he believed the appointment was a major mistake. we know there had been tensions between those two in the past and i think that s not something that we know from having had anthony here on the couch, but that s something that was out there at the same time when sean spicer stepped back from the podium, one of the things we heard he was angling for was the communications director. it s not surprising. let s be frank, the communications of the white house has not gone terribly successfully out of the gate. i don t fault sean spicer that it felt like when he came out here, he was given the mission of being and credibly combative with the press, but it didn t
meeting with president putin. bringing in cnn white house correspondent athena jones. reporter: hi, fred. this is very interesting, because we know that president trump did not have a press conference before leaving the g-20 and so there wasn t an opportunity for reporters to ask him about the discrepancy between the readouts from the russian side and the u.s. side after that two-hour-plus sitdown with russian president vladimir putin but he has taken to twitter to address some of these questions. you put these up on the screen. put them up again. he said this morning, i strongly pressed president putin twice about russian meddling in our election. evehemently denied it. i m already given my opinion. and tweeted, putin and i discussed forming an impenetrable cyber security unit so that election hacking and many other negative things will be guarded. both of those are stunning statements for different reasons. the first, the president confirms he, what all sides
will be talks because south korea s new president will start them and what rodman does is gives the united states the actually control the process. this actually might be good for washington that rodman is there. i can t make it up but this is one of the times when rodman might do some good. three years ago when he was there, dennis rodman, vehemently vo sif fer russly supported kim jong-un. i want to share a bit of that. i got it. let me do this. we re the guys here doing one thing, we re going to go back to america and take the abuse. we can just open the door just a little bit, for people to come here. and to your point, back then, in 2013, donald trump tweeted, dennis rodman would do a better job than the current ambassador to north korea. his relationship with kim jong-un was amazing to see. well, you know, a lot of people jusly criticized rodman
