Meet the woman who started it all. Lucas is the first baby with down syndrome to represent gerber. This picture courtesy of cooks we agree. Saying thats really. Im heading to the white house where see you later this afternoon. Appreciate you joining us for this packed hour. Tuing it over to ali velshi and s ruhle. Who doesnt love a gerber baby . Love that baby lucas. Sweet pea. Morning, everyone. Im ali velshi. Im stephanie ruhle. Its wednesday, june 6th. Mexico firing the latest shot in the escalating trade war between the United States and the allies. How is this goingo play when the president sits down with the leaders of those countries on friday . How many people are in on forming this Tariff Policy and who is in charge . Thats a great question. In fact, what you see right now is a big split inside the
guns. We begin with the latest escalating trade war between the United States and the top trading partners including some of the closest allies and this one comes from mexico. The m
In an investigation that implicates either me or my campaign because youre my Attorney General. Its my Justice Department and whats more, you can be a hero to conservatives if youll investigate my vanquished rival. When we meet with parliamentarians from emerging democracies we always urge them when you win an election, you dote seek to jail the losing side. Here our own president of the United States is trying to do exactly that. How big a deal is it fundamentally . Well, its a big deal in this respect. Its further evidence of a corrupt intent on the president s part. Further evidence that he may have violated the law by obstructing justice in the firing of comey. But in other efforts, as well. One of the other disturbing signs we saw just today is the president s announcement that hes going to pardon someone who had violated Campaign Finance laws by surreptitiously exceeding limits. It looks a lot like a message to Michael Cohen who may also be
implicated in exceeding Campaign Limits
Need for a new type of candidate to help the democrats win their elections in the fall. Ive got four fresh faces on this show tonight. They want to change the country, the party, i want to get a chance to talk to them. First, i want to talk to you. This summer has turned out to be shocking, even by the standards of the trump era, okay . Just this week we had a cnn reporter who was barred from a white house event for the crime of doing her job and asking some tough questions of the president. Also, you had trump threatening to yank away the Security Clearances from former top intelligence officials just out of smit, they didnt do anything wrong. And we got to hear recordings of trump two months before being elected president of the United States, talking about how to pay off a playboy model. And before that we had the horror in helsinki, where the president of the United States played lap dog to vladimir

This coming as President Trump does appear to be going ut alone. Essentially acting as his own lead attorney. This was according to sources who say the president feels misled and no longer wants anyone else in charge. It is a decision with massive implications, given the fact President Trumps personal lawyer and ficker of a dozen years is under investigation and his documents have been seized by federal prosecutors. That means the president , who does not have a law degree, is trying essentially take over his own defense and today he went on offense on twitter about the russia investigation, tweeting slippery james comey, the worst fbi director in history, was not fired because of the phony russia veinvestigation. Where by the way, there was no collusion except by the dems. Of course, theres a huge problem with the tweet like that. And that is this. The president himself said last year on National Television that comey was fired because of russia. Regardless of recommendation,

Street . People arie looking at their cel phones while driving. There is a price you pay with respect to that accessibility. That is its always there, always available. You never really unplug. With all these new technologies, we become a society of instant gratification. I want to download this movie now. I want this song now. I want to read the news now. Instant gratification has changed our social etiquette too. We now unfriend people. We follow people. We write on their wall. In the 90s, that was considered graffiti. All right. Dont miss the next episode of the 2000s. Thats tonight, 9 00 here on cnn. All right. Hello again, everyone. Thanks for joining me this sunday. Im fredricka whitfield.
