false choice. you ve been making this point for so long. i just want you tell us why it s wrong to imagine that america can t have a clean energy economy that is also a high employment economy. look at the latest report from the u.s. bureau of labor statistics. the number one fastest-growing job in the united states for the last several years has been solar panel installer. solar jobs are now growing nine times fast er than other jobs i the economy. what is the second fastest growing job? wind turbine technician. what is the source of work that could be done by people in every community? retrofitting buildings. these are jobs that are waiting to be filled, and the cost of the renewables is coming down. it saves people money. by the way, in kentucky, neighboring tennessee, the famous coal museum in kentucky
much fast er. why was he able to do that? to do any of this? we re also learning more this morning about his deadly intentions. planning well before the event. he rented a condo across from another music festival in las vegas the week before this massacre. it was a larger concert, his initial target? all this as his girlfriend insists she didn t know anything about his meticulous long-range plan. we have it all covered. let s begin with jean casarez in las vegas. certainly a tone of skepticism, because as you and i know from doing this, it is rare that nobody knew anything if any were close to the killer. reporter: that s exactly right. authorities released so much information last night, chris, and they say they are looking at facts. facts that will lead them to the truth.
press briefing. i want to go to my colleague kristen welker on the north lawn of the white house. kristen, sarah huckabee sanders facing a number of questions regarding this particular issue in the briefing. when she didn t provide satisfactory responses it seemed like the questions started coming on fast er. reporter: that s right. her bottom line statement to do a quick recap is that, yes, the president was, in fact, involved in helping to craft that initial statement from donald trump jr. aboard air force one in which he said that that meeting that trump jr. took with the russian attorney was primarily to discuss russian adoptions. of course, we later learned that was misleading because the broader reason and promise that he was offered by the intermediary was dirt on hillary clinton that would be offered by the russian government. what s striking about her statement is they contradict
