We are as americans. Reporter but moments later a stockily different take on an exploding crisis. Children crossing the border to the u. S. Alone, illegally. They should be september back as soon as it can be determined who responsible adults are in their families. Reporter shes speaking out of both sides of her mouth. If you want the immigrant community to see you as a champion, youre going to have to make difficult choices and take a firm position. It didnt seem that way yesterday. Reporter then theres benghazi. The attack that killed four americans on clintons watch. Republicans say she still has a lot of explaining to do so this was music to gop ears. There are still unanswered questions. It was the fog of war. Republicans convinced benghazi is clin clintons Achilles Heel wasted no time saying shes the one who must answer questions. Secretary clinton from The Beginning has stone walled on this rather than acting as a
partner getting to the bottom of what happened. Reporter clinton
Seriously tonight. A short time ago, the u. S. Central command, the coalition, announced it is opening a formal assessment into whether on march 17th, in west mosul, it may have dropped bombs that killed a significant large number, perhaps, perhaps hundreds of civilians. So issue right now, nobody knows exactly what happened. All of this began to emerge over the last couple of days as Social Media Activists in the area began to report large numbers of Civilian Casualties due to bombings in west mosul where there is very tough fighting against isis. The picture has been pretty murky because theres so many conflicting reports, and the u. S. Doesnt have anybody on the ground there that can put eyeballs on the situation and really verify it. But the pentagon, the coalition today, a short time ago, said that theyve been able to
determine that, yes, they did conduct the air strikes in one of these areas where the allegations have emerged from on march 17th. Iraqi officials on the ground are
Happy easter to those of you celebrating. We have a lot of politics to get to. But first, the growing tension between the United States and north korea. North korea last night launched a Ballistic Missile from the Submarine Base in sinpo, but the missile exploded minutes after launch. This happened as mike pence landed in south korea for talks on how to counter the growing Nuclear Ambitions and he spoke to american troops at a breakfast there this morning. Im joined by Senior National security analyst juan duarte, the failure, the New York Times this morning leans hard into the idea that the failure wasnt necessarily a north korean failure, but maybe sabotage and possibly sabotage from the United States. What can you say . This is a Missile Program thats been replete with failures. And the challenge is we dont know yet. It could be sabotage. It could be poor engineering or bad luck. Its the nature of the Missile Programs but its clear that

A Rose Beggarden event tomorrow are told. Then later in the week the president will be going to ohio. And it is notable they are putting him on the road for this. Because he is someone that does well pitching things to crowds and feeds off that energy. Sometimes makes him go off script, but if he can deliver a solid pitch and a good message, i think it is a necessary piece of momentum for this administration thats been largely bogged down in controversy. Now a little bit about what we have heard with his Infrastructure Plan is it involves a trillion dollars in public and in private investigation. And it is something that capitol hill should be able to get behind. But it is something we have heard about a lot from him. And it is important in the aftermath of the foreign trip. A lot of people said what worked is the administration gave people Something Else to talk about that was not russia or controversy. And this is a way that a lot of republican strategists said to me, you need to giv
Sean spicer, would the president be okay with a package with a time line in which the tax cuts would be enacted and people would feel it in 2018 and not 2017. A bit of ambiguity. Heres spicer. Theres two issues. Fiscal year 17 and calendar year 17. For tax purposes, its calendar year 2017 that theyre probably most concerned with. The president as we work with congress will have those details to be able to flush out. Something that they have to work can congress on. President trump dropped news on this whole conversation just moments ago telling reuters in an interview, speaking about the border adjustment tax, which is a big question in this. The president said, and im quoting from reuters here, it could lead to a lot more jobs in the United States. As that article dropped, spicer talked up the merits of it
saying it benefits workers, americans and the economy. Nothing from the white house yesterday, but certainly it appears theyre starting to talk it up just a bit. Neil . Neil very in
