preponderance of the evidence, i think scott pruitt is doing a great job. obviously it comes on fox news, a television station that the president regularly watching. we don t know exactly what he es a doing. he doesn t have anything on his schedule today. he often goes golf, but it s kind of gross here to be playing golf today. a little gross and cold. i agree with that assessment. dan merica, thank you very much. thousands of national guards troops prepare to deploy, as part of president trump s vow to protect the border. we re going to go right there after the break. also exclusive new details about another adviser to president trump who tried to get dirt on hillary clinton during the presidential campaign. more on that, ahead. you wouldn t accept an incomplete job
what do you know? that s right. as we so often do, the first response from the president sometimes comes on twitter. that s where we have heard from him directly, as you mentioned, that the fire is now out and he wanted to thank the firemen and women for the job they had done. now, we know that in addition to the president being at the white house tonight, the first lady and their son barron are both in washington tonight. it s an interesting night here, because the pool who covers the president has been called to a later than normal call time this evening, which suggests the president could possibly be heading out to dinner or there could be an evening activity for the day. as you know, the president did not golf today, did not have any public events on his schedule, so we re still waiting to find out what else he might be doing. as is typical, he may be heading to dinner at his hotel nearby with his family. we may know about that later, but as you saw, he s grateful to
