The White House Press corps have had for him all week about this. He also left for bedminster this afternoon, ignoring questions once again. Its just a pattern of this white house refusing to answer for why statements made both from the president and also from his senior aides at the White House Press podium have not turned out to be true, or at least they are now under question based on what we now are hearing from what Michael Cohen might have to say to special counsel mueller. It wouldnt be the first time that Sarah Sanders has had to correct herself after making statements about what the president knew and didnt know, but this time Sarah Sanders hasnt even been available to answer questions about this. The white house has been virtually silent. Yeah. Is there reporting on how the president is feeling about the latest news . Reporter well, the president has been very angry. Thats what were hearing from an Administration Official this week. Hes been watching the coverage on televisio
Case of the white house making statements about what the president did and did not know. Senior Trump Officials have said the president didnt know anything about these payments. That turned out to be completely untrue based on the audiotape of the president himself talking about that payment were Michael Cohen before the election. But, again, here the white house refusing to talk about it. White house aides are now referring questions about this issue to the president s outside lawyers even though some of these issues involve the statements made by people who worked in the white house now or very recently. So, anderson, theyre hoping that we dont continue asking questions about this. There hasnt been a White House Press briefing in several days. There have only been three this month at all. They are clamping down on the opportunities that reporters get to ask both the president and also senior white house officials questions about all of these matters. Abby phillip, thanks very much. N
Ayman Mohyeldin hosts coverage of national and international news, including breaking stories. He walked that fine line. He was just very critical of the investigation. Not going after mueller in a personal kpcapacity. But with the tone of the tweet we just read, he is really trying to assign mueller a motive as to why hes going after trump eluding to things like he didnt get the job, Nasty Business Relationship that went sour between the two men. Do you think this is a different tactic now that were seeing that hes building up for the past several months . Hes been going after mueller for a while. I do think were at a critical moment here. Theres a lot of of expectation that mueller is building to some more indictments, to some more cases and theres that Obstruction Report that he has been working on for some time. And theres a generally belief that hes not going to do anything after labor day. He doesnt want to be accused of interfearing in the election in the same way that james com
Brian Williams examines the days top political stories and current politicalcampaign news. Washington post also reports tonight the white house is preparing an Executive Order that authorizes the president to punish foreign interference in u. S. Elections. The post writes, quote, the eightpage draft order appears to be an effort to stave off aggressive legislation, including a bill introduced in congress this month and to quell criticism that trump seems to give more credence to russian president Vladimir Putins denials of interference than to u. S. Intelligence agencies conclusion to the kremlin sought to undermine the 2016 election. That comes to us as Florida Democratic senator bill nelson, whose running in a tough reelection fight, tells the tampa bay times, quote, russian operatives have penetrated some of floridas Election Systems ahead of the 2018 mid terms. He said any further information is classified. Today the white house actually did impose new sanctions on
