Here, too early to call in the contest between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders. But local man does good. Look at it, i have to say, theres the one really big picture takeaway from this is that were looking at three new yorkers. Theres five people left in the race, three of them are new yorkers. Donald trump born and bred. Bernie sanders born and bred before he took off for burlington, vermont. And Hillary Clinton neither born nor bred but the senator from this state. We dont have any further characterization of too early to call on the democratic side. Sometimes we get a lead, sometimes about i get some sort of characterization. Theyre tight on that tonight. I think it was a foregone conclusion that donald trump was going to win tonight. With it being his home state, just how things are going for him in the race. I personally as a pundit, when i look at that republican race right now, i feel like theres a lot of wishing and hoping going into peoples description of anything going on

National intelligence, he found out on a stage in aspen while being interviewed by nbc. We have breaking news. It was announced on twitter vladamir putin is coming to the white house in the fall. Say that again. Vladamir putin coming to the did i hear you . Yeah. Okay. Thats going to be special. Director coats was not told of the decision to invite putin to washington this fall nor does he by his own admission know what went on with helsinki in that meeting oneonone with vladamir putin, nor do we.
