Way thats adverse to the United States is nothing new. We want to begin in arizona where Vice President mike pence is set to arrive next hour as that state becomes the latest at the center of the coronavirus pandemic in the country. Arizona one of the states just to reopen just reported a Staggering Number of 4800 new covid cases and 88 deaths. Thats just in the last 24 hours. Today, the state is also seeing the most hospitalizations yet. Joining me now from phoenix is nbcs Vaughn Hillyard, who to have you with us. After claiming all 50 states were safely reopening, the Vice President today is traveling to a covid hot spot. What should we expect to hear from him, when he arrives . Reporter ayman, im going to try to lay this out in as serious nature as i can, what the state is facing. Over the last weeks, we have brought doctor after doctor after doctor on to our air, and communicated the message that arizona was in a crisis situation. And yet, it was only up until this monday when gove
From the courthouse. That is precisely the argument that the state was making. This animation, thomas, the judge called the hearing at 8 30 and we thought it would twa 30 minutes but after two hours the judge finally decided she wanted to bring the jury back in and this is an issue she thinks she can decide on later. The state indicated its going to take them another 45 minutes to make the counterargument. This animation, by the way, it purports to show essentially what happened that night by using a variety of things. Among them, police reports, audio calls. Many of those calls we have heard throughout the testimony, and daniel shu he took some infrared photographers but all of those things were going to be combined to create this elaborate animation. Initially the state objected. They wanted it edited even after the edited after it was roofed down to still photographs but the state decided we want to throw it out. The gentleman on the stand right now, dr. Vincent di marx maio. He is
A Television Show. He now has a radio show. He worked on president reagans Economic Policy back in the day. Hes a big free trade guy. So wall street looks at this as a positive. He didnt like the idea, he wrote earlier this month, that the president was looking to put tariffs in place. Youll see kudlow as a guy who will most likely push President Trump to stay in nafta, maybe even nudge him to get back into tpp. And one thing he has that the president certainly likes, hes a tv personality. President trump often complains that he doesnt have enough people in the administration who do good tv. Larry kudlow certainly does. And again, as someone just mentioned a few moments ago, he looks like hes straight out of central casting. Without a doubt. And trump loves people straight out of central casting. John bolton, note to you, that mustache, trump doesnt like that. Some suggested that cost him that job. Is it safe to assume markets will respond favorably to this news . Yes, hes been a perso
Welker. White house reporter ashley parker. New york times politics reporter jeremy peters. Nbc National Security and justice reporter, julia ainslie. And michael schmidt. Kristen welker, start with the news of john dowds departure. You spoke with imhad just moments ago. Give us a sense of why now and whats sense this sort of change in strategy within the president s legal team . Peter, we have confirmed this report broken by the New York Times. I spoke to john dowd very briefly. He confirmed he resigned. When i asked him why he wouldnt give any details. He said just tell people i love the president and wish him very well. Now of course, this move comes, peter, after all of the shakeup that you just mapped out and also after that weekend statement by john dowd in which he effectively called for the special counsel investigation to end. A lot of people say that was a green light for the president to go on the attack against the special counsel. So we saw all of these tweets. The preside
And theres nobody more honorable than rob portman of ohio because he called up, please let the money, i said rob, i hate being the country thats always giving money. When ukraine helps europe and the European Countries far more than they help us. Theyre like a wall between russia and europe. Theyre like a wall. Theyre a big, wide, beautiful wall, and he said, you know what . But its important, and in fact, he came soout and he said that. That was my only reason because i dont like being the sucker country. We were the sucker country for years and years. Were not the sucker country anymore but i gave the money because rob portman and others called me and asked. But i dont like to be the sucker, and European Countries are helped far more than we are, and those countries should pay more to help ukraine. Ask a question, please. Thank you, sir. What about mr. Biden . What did you want about biden . What did you want him to look into on biden . Look, biden and his son are stone cold crooked,
