This is the alleged White Nationalist who slaughtered 49 people and seriously wounded 20 more in the mass shooting at two mosques in new zealand. Tonight, President Trumps response was to minimize the issue of White Nationalism. White nationalism is a rising threat around the world . I dont really. I think its a small group of people that have very, very serious problems. Dismissive answer on a day when 49 people were gunned down by an alleged White Nationalist.

As inquiry picks up speed and expands, the president erupts in a meltdown railing against democrats and the news media. The state Department Inspector general giving congress documents related to the impeachment inquiry including material that Rudy Giuliani gave to the white house which gave it to the state department. Well hear from a member of the House Intel Committee. As the president feels the increasing heat from the inquiry, hes using dangerous language, words like treason, coup, and warning of a civil war in the country and Vladimir Putin poking fun at the u. S. Joking that russia will definitely interfere in the 2020 election but is it really a joke . And as we get started here, a followup to a story we first brought you last night.
