Hearings. I had not had any such meetings. I was not meeting with russian officials on a continuing basis to advance any campaign agenda. Sometime before that, i had met in my office in an official way with the Russian Ambassador and so i that was the answer i gave and i think it was an honest answer, tucker. I thought i was responding exactly to that question and it really became a big brouhaha. Meanwhile, a Senior Trump Administration official said the president s soninlaw and former National Security advisor mickael franklin also met with the Russian Ambassador at trump tower in december. California talk radio host and Republican National committeeman. From san diego trump supporter gina loudoun. Jeff sessions fate is probably in the hands of the president it seems for now, and for now donald trump is standing by his attorney general. Listen to this. Mr. President do you still have confidence . Total. I dont think so at all. When did you first learn that sessions spoke to the Russia
Mussolini. Trump is set to met privately with mexicos unpopular president Enrique Pena Nieto just hours before trump delivers a huge immigration speech in arizona. This is a meeting which paints an unlikely picture to say the least. To say the least, john. Those swift and unhappy reactions to the fact donald trump is coming here to meet with the mexican president. The former president of mexico, vicente fox who has gone a few rounds with trump already over the past year or so, he appeared on cnn a couple hours ago and he did not hold back. He is not welcome to mexico. By 130 million people. We dont like him. We dont want him. We reject his visit. I dont understand why president pena has offered this opportunity. I think its nothing more than a political stunt. Trump is using mexico, using president pena, to boost his sinking poll numbers. Now, trump was quick to respond on twitter, pointing out that back in march, vicente fox actually invited donald trump to visit mexico. That was when
And when you talk about multiple youre approaching millions of dollars for each warhead. One of the other things it has to do well is to make sure what we do Going Forward is consist with the other battle were fighting in syria and iraq, and thats against the islamic state. It has to make sure it takes steps to prevent russia from interfering with the efforts of our pilots in that conflict, that it doesnt paint our pilots with their very many air defenses. At the same time as were dealing with resources to deal with al assads use of biological and chemweapons that those resources are not diverted for too long. So thats one of the challenges for the administration. Just a factual issue, tony, youre on expert in this area. Isis suspected targets or whether elsewhere in syria, this is the first time the u. S. Has launched air strikes against the syria targets, is that right . Yes. Tell us why. Usually you have to have the u. N. Security council give you the authorization. Or we would have
Systems in south korea, and i think we should move through that situation expeditiously. We could spend a half hour on it. But right now theres a political turmoil in south korea. That also contributes to the challenge, but this, my friends, is of immediate danger, and were going to have to use our best capabilities and senses in order to prevent what could be a catastrophic event, because they do not think like us. Finally, china is the only country in the world that has a significant influence on south korea. We should expect the chinese to break the activities of the ruler in pyongyang. Senator graham . I would tell the chinese to tell the North Koreans if you go toward developing a missile that can hit america, youre going to regret it. And were going to stop you, and let me tell you why. Do you know anything much about north korea . This guy is nuts. He just killed his half brother. Shot his uncle with an antiaircraft gun. Hes got plenty of family issues. His grandfather claims to
Republican consultant robin swanson. Thank you for being with us. All of this is focused around al frankens question during the hearing confirmation to Jeff Sessions about contact he had the way he went to work for the russian government listen to this. And if there is any evidence that anyone affiliated with the Trump Campaign communicated with the russian government in the course of this campaign, what will you do . Senator franken, im not aware of any of those tiftsz. I have been called at a surrogate at a time or two and i did not have communications with the russians. So john, how is it that Jeff Sessions can remember meeting with 25 ambassadors, can list them all but fails to recall a meeting not just with the Russian Ambassador but with a man who is described by u. S. Intelligence as a top spy and a top spy recruiter for the russian government . Senator sessions was a toplevel senator. Im sure hes met with hundreds of diplomats all over the world. If it did slip his mind and i h
