what the president said. a time when paul ryan was really frank about what he thought about the words and language that donald trump used. anyway, unfortunate is how he described the language, president trump used referring to african country in the oval office meeting yesterday. many are not explicitly coming out about what the president said. and martin luther king jr. s daughter spoke out saying i m more troubled by the silence from people supposed to be men and women of righteousness. joini ining me now, max boot on studies in council on foreign rerelations for the mccain, rubio campaigns and more importantly author of a brand new book called the road not taken. edwards landsdale and the american tragedy in vietnam. don t drop it.
he was so offended, because he was in the room when i made the call and so were other people. and the call was a very nice call. he was so offended that a woman would be that somebody would be listening to that call. president trump in a new interview standing by chief of staff john kelly for his comments about congresswoman wilson. the president also taking to twitter to ramp up his attacks against the florida lawmaker. these new development, as family and friends of sergeant johnson are getting ready for his funeral to pay their final respects. his casket there arriving at the church. joining m ining me now, congres fromful, a member of the foreign affairs committee. i want to start first with that tweet, sir. won t you agree that the optics do not look good on this very morning their family is laying their loved one to rest? well, i think that this
formal meetings, as we know. president trump is not more traditional, as we ve seen in past presidents, particularly in situations like this. part of it will just be seeing how the two of them essentially communicate and get along. but, two, incredibly important things on the docket here. certainly, the most consequential that we have seen in this young presidency. chris, we ll check in with you later. chris jansing at the white house. we re going to continue the conversation we just left off. ining me now is msnbc contributor, a former fbi double agent called to brief the house intelligence panel yesterday. he s the author of how to catch a russian spy. again, we knew we were going to have you on the show yesterday. we didn t know we were going to wake up to devin nunes under pressure, stepping aside from this intel committee, house intel committee. where does this leave us? very good question. where does the russia investigation go in the house? is it going to continue? i hop
parents there about the racism that they feel is directed at their kids at this school. that said, the sheriff said something very interesting during his press conference today which was this is an officer they ve never seen exhibit any sort of racial attitudes whatsoever, and perhaps most surprising, the sheriff almost didn t want to admit it but said this is a guy who has had a long-term relationship with an african-american woman so he thought if it cut any way, it would cut toward the direction of the young woman that he s accused of assaulting. so i think they re going to the sheriff s going to give it a good long think over the next 24 hours, 18 hours now, and come up with a decision very, very quickly. miguel marquez. thank you. joini inin ining me now, sunny cnn law enforcement analyst and retiremented nypd detective harry houck and michael dorn, former chief of police for the county georgia school system and executive director of safe havens international. safe havens work
