Thanks for tuning in on this monday afternoon. Were talking about north korea, possibly about the launch of another missile as the International Community is reeling from its claims it has successfully conducted a test. They say the latest and ant puts the whole world at risk. The new Monitoring Group says the device they tested was about eight times more powerful not at the top of the list might be an option. Any threat to the United States or its territories including guam, or our allying will be met with a massive military response, a response both effective and overwhelming. We are not looking to the total annihilation of a country, namely north korea, but as i said, we have many options to do so. For more than 20 years the Security Council has taken actions against north Koreas Nuclear programs. For more than 20 years north korea has defied our collective voice. Enough is enough. We have taken an incremental approach and despite the best of intentions, it has not worked. His abusi
At the present time its clear he didnt understand anything he was backing about. He has no earthly idea whether he was coming or going, just like he was when he was president of the united states. Theres not been a more destructive presidency than george bushs. Boris sanchez will live right outside the white house, and our katy hartung is live at the benefit in texas. Bannon han dollar literal regard against the gop establishment, and he delivered that speech at the california gop it convention. Does the white house endorse bannons attacks. We asked the white house for comment on bannons statement. We have yet to hear back. Youll recall earlier this week when the president held a joint press briefs with Mitch Mcconnell, he was discussed about attacks on mcconnell and other republicans. And he said steve bannon is a friend and doing what he believes is best for the country. However, bannons attacks on reps in office now is different from what we saw yesterday when he was viciously going
Planes have been taking off in atlanta. And people who were supposed to travel today from that airport. Stay tuned. We have a live report from atlantas airport in just a few moments. Its a very busy night of news. First, President Trump saying he has no intention of getting rid of special counsel Robert Mueller. Listen. No, im not. So the president s insistence, however, comes as his own Transition Team launches new attacks against the special counsel. It accuses Robert Mueller of unlawfully obtaining thousands of transition emails. It claims the documents were private property even though they were on government servers and registered to gov. Com addresses. This is significant theyre putting this out defending the investigation. A spokesman says, quote, when we have obtained emails in the course of our ongoing criminal investigation, we have secured either the account owners consent or appropriate criminal process. President trump and Vladimir Putin appear to be gaining a close relati
Helicopter, a lot of noise. [ inaudible ]. It is the anniversary. Hopefully everything will normalize with cuba. Right now they are not doing the right thing. When they dont do the right thing we are not going to do the right thing. Thats all there is to it. We have to be strong with cuba. They support me very strongly. We will give cuba strength now. [ inaudible ]. No, im not. No. What else . What are you surprised . I did speak to cindy mccain. I wished john well. I understand he would come if we needed his vote. The word is john will come back if we need his vote. Its too bad. Its tough. He is going through a very tough time. No question about it. He will come back if we need his vote. Thank you very much, everybody. Again, that was just moments ago at the white house he was asked about the ongoing mueller investigation. We will unpack all of this. He was asked about senator john mccain and breaking news on him we know he will not be returning to the hill for the tax vote. We will h
Out for this plane. Youre in the cnn newsroom. President trump is at camp david prepping for his summit with north Korean Leader kim jongun. Joining him, Jared Kushner, ivanka trump, donald trump jr. , tiffany trump. Staying behind at the white house it seems, first lady Melania Trump. The public hasnt seen her in 23 days, many wondering where she might be. North korean summit restart is getting mixed reactions from ally. Live from singapore where its set to take place in a little more than a week. Were at the white house where we start now with ryan nobles. Ryan, good morning. Reporter good morning, christi. This summit that was on and then off is back on again. Lengthy meeting with kim onchoi, the president emerging from that meeting, announcing that the summit planned for june 12th would go forward as planned, despite the president himself saying in a letter to kim jongun not too long ago that the summit wasnt going to go forward. And the president clearly taking a different tone as
