Despite the fact that he doesnt represent them which would, you know, i think open yourself up to an ethics complaint. I think one of the people who is the lawyer for the president told the rest of the team not to get lawyers, although they have not quite sensibly decided to get lawyers. Because by telling Donald Trumps workers not to get lawyers, what you are in fact doing is offering legal advice that actually works against the best interests of the other people and for your client. If youre not careful, that could have legal ramifications. As you can see, we have john heilemann, a plig wriler from the New York Times and also press secretary for president obama, josh earnest. Josh who speaks on behalf of the president . It is fascinating because we didnt really get an announcement that jay secretaar with everybody. But there has been no announcement that he is part the trump team. Well, first of all, there are a lot of people who are reluctant to defend the president on tv, so it pro
Much a fight for the majority whip still in the hospital this morning in Critical Condition. Overnight we learned that he had received multiple blood transfusions and will still need additional surgery to recover from that single gunshot wound that went into his hip and then through his pelvis. The president returned about 10 00 p. M. Last night here to the white house from visiting scalise and his family at the hospital. There you can see the president walking out, shaking hands with doctors. The president tweeting just left hospital left Steve Scalise is in very tough shape but he is a real fighter. Pray for steve. Earlier the president said this. Congressman scalise is a very good friend. Sea patriot, and he is a fighter. He will recover from this assault. America is praying for you. And america is praying for all of the victims of this terrible shooting. And of the others injured, in addition to scalise, four others of the two Capital Police officers. One has been treated and relea
The attacker made statements immediately prior to attacking the Police Officer. It is too early to know the nature of these alleged statements. Michigan state Police Officer is in stable condition. He was initially in critical condition. The suspect was arrested by police. The fbi quickly took over the investigation. We also know the identity of the officer, as well. All of this happening at the Bishop International airport in flint, michigan. He is in stable condition. He was supervising the daytoday operations at the airport. He was bleeding from his neck, and a knife nearby on the groun ground. The alleged attacker was arrested by police on scene. We cannot yet confirm the identity of the attacker. But he is in custody and being questioned. Witnesses said that the attacker had a blank look on his face. The airport remains closed. The fbi is leading the investigation with partnership of local officers. Given the recent events around the world, the concern is whether or not this is te
Who take jobs from americans, no everify, no end to chain migration. The president isnt even getting a border wall, though he insisted he will somehow get one later possibly. Able to get something in six months, will you continue the daca program . Well talk about that, but i think adil will be made within six months. No relief for the wall, is that what youre saying . They cannot obstruct the wall. The wall, to me, is vital. If i dont get the wall, then we will become the obstruction. We have to have an understanding that, whether it is in the budget or some other vehicle, in a fairly short period of time, the ball will be funded. Otherwise, were not doing anything. Tucker the president seems confident it will work out in the end, but theres no reason to be optimistic. The fate of Daca Recipients is, by far, the biggest piece of leverage he ever will have. If he gives it away for free, none of his other immigration priorities, the priorities he ran on and won the presidency with will

Good morning, griff. Good morning, guys. Thats right. Its day 8 and evacuations continue. Were in the western party of houston just behind me. The Addicks Reservoir. Anthey have asked for voluntary evacuation here because reservoirs are going to be, according to the army corps of engineers pumping water out of them for at least the next 15 days because of the amount of water in them in these neighborhoods and the immediate area of these reservoirs in western houston are subject to further fl
