Republican party. His path to gop president ial nomination all but clear at this hour following a crushing loss in indiana. Senator ted cruz just hours ago ended or i guess technically suspended his president ial campaign announcing he no longevitier had a path to stopping trump from taking the nomination. From the beginning, ive said that i would continue on as long as there was a viable path to victory. Tonight im sorry to say it appears that path has been foreclosed. Together, we left it all on the field in indiana. We gave it everything weve got. But the voters chose another path. And so with a heavy heart, but with boundless optimism for the longterm future of our nation, we are suspending our campaign. With 97 of the votes in, trump has 53 of the vote in indiana, cruz in second place with 37 . Ohio Governor John Kasich who remains in the race is in a distant third. Trump won all 57 available delegates. At a Victory Party at trump tower a fairly subdued trump who spent the last fe
This grim news breaking about the worry of another attack as we get other breaking news that the brother of the suspected suicide bomber has been taken into custody. Both men, british citizens. And dimming the lights of the eiffel tower. Matt, the fact that the Prime Minister gets on the tv with this announcement that the threat level has been raised to critical and it could be imminent must have everybody on edge tonight in london. Reporter well, yeah. Here in man cchester, everybody has been on age for the past 24 hours and one of the reasons that it was said that another attack could be imminent and one of the reasons that they believe that is the sophistication of this weapon that went into this attack, this heinous attack that happened jusbehind me at the arena inmanchester. Weve seen these sorts of attacks, these sorts of lone wolf attacks throughout europe. Britain has been spared, for the most part, except for five months ago when the westminster attack happened when a man drov
Out to tillerson himself, trump spoke to reporters and made clear he wanted someone in the state department who the wouldnt disagree with him. He found his man in cia direct ker mike pompeo. Lets watch. Rex and i have been talking about this for a long time. We got along actually quite well. But we disagreed on things. When you look at the iran deal, i think its terrible. I guess he thought it was okay. I wanted to either break it or do something. And he felt a little bit differently. So we were not really thinking the same. With mike pompeo, we have a very similar thought process. I think its going to go very well. I got along well with rex. But it was a different mindset. It was a different thinking. I wish wretch a lot of good things. I think hes going to be very happy. I think rex will be much happier now but i really appreciate his service. But with mike, weve had a very Good Chemistry right from the beginning. Actually, rex is not the name of a dog. Its the name of the secretary
Telling a subordinate to lie about his dealings with russia. This is an explosive charge that the president of the United States directed Michael Cohen to lie. It has the poem to bring down this president on charges of obstruction of justice. Donald trumps own pick for ag was asked specifically about this scenario in testimony this week. So if there was reason to believe that the president tried to coach somebody not to testify or testify falsely, that could be obstruction of justice . Yes, under an obstruction statute, yes. So if theres evidence the president tried to conceal evidence, that would be obstruction of justice potentially, right . Right. Donald trumps lawyer rudy pushing back against the story today saying, any suggestion from any source that the president counseled Michael Cohen to lie is categorically fault. Todays claims are just more madeup lies borne of Michael Cohens malice in desperation to refute his sentence. Democrats responded to the buzzfeed story cautiously, s
Moving storm, motivated to act in the wake of another mass shooting, many of the president s tweets this weekend focused on the Washington Post story that got under his skin. The story that so irked the president was about his squandered summer, an attack one trump ally said today was among his private concerns. The postwriting this, the two months between independence and labor day offered a vivid portrait of the president. Incompetent, indecisive, intolerant and ineffective. And quote, while monitoring the storm was apparently designed to help erase that image, it seems to have done anything but. Its hard to elicit a correction from the National Weather service but after trump lumped alabama with a group of states in harms way, officials were forced to put out this statement. Quote, alabama will not see any impact from dorian. We repeat, no impacts from Hurricane Dorian will be felt across alabama. The system remains too far east. Thats the real news about the storm which remains dan
