Ive seen than so far in this administration. I did not and im not aware of anyone else that did. Hes perjured himself at least three times. Good morning and welcome to your week echbd. I im christi paul. And im martin savidge. Great to be with you. And so this morning President Trump is getting ready for his most important foreign trip. A 12 day five country tour to confront growing Nuclear Fears and reestablish u. S. Power in the region. But likely not escaping the problems back at home including investigations that have made it into his inner circle. President trump is waking up in hawaii where yesterday he visited with military leaders and paid his respects at the uss arizona memorial. The first lady was there with him to lay a wreath to remember those lost in the attacks of pearl harbor. And he also took shots at some of his favorite targets.

But a lot of politics here being injected from both sides, pennsylvania avenue, of course democrats calling for an investigation, calling for the resignation. Thats one thing we know will not happen, brooke. Speaking of the other end of pennsylvania avenue, how are members of congress responding to the president s attack on senator gillibrand . How are they receiving that . Certainly rallying around senator gillibrand. No question at all.

We were standing about 20 feet away and that was the agreement that we have. But it gives us a very unique look at what could be, we dont know for sure, but what could be the decisive votes. Gary, well continue to check in with you fascinating to see that process at work. 95 of the votes in. Conor lamb ahead with 1,132
That fund, that comes from the omb, the office of management and budget. So there is really not a lot of knowledge what was going on within that unit at the white house. And that is not for a lack of trying, we know they had to try to talk to people, and they had five suspects, they released documents, but sandy, he is here and he is testified, he respo responded to a subpoena, and it goes to the fact that she a career official that worked with democrats and republicans.
