Today we celebrate our independent days. Good morning and welcome to a. M. Joy. Today, after spending a couple of hours with us, of course, many of you will be beginning your preparations to celebrate our Independence Day. For many of thaw means the usual, clean off the grill, stake out a spot to watch the fireworks and wrap yourself in the good old red, white and blue, but this fourth of july demands of us something beyond the routine because this Independence Day our president is not a fictional handsome dashing alien fighting leader with a rousing message of unity and resist an. Our president is donald trump. Who instead has this message about aliens and Independence Day. This legislation presents a simple choice. Either vote to save and protect american lives or vote to shield and comfort criminal aliens who threaten innocent lives, and theyve been shielded too long. As we head toward the fourth of july, we remember now more than ever to cherish our freedom. Not quite the same. So
Reporting that it includes new details about the alleged incident in that moscow hotel room. Comey reveals when the allegations came up, trump told him to consider having the fbi investigate the prostitutes allegation to prove it was a lie. Comey says in an apparent play for my sympathy he added he has a beautiful wife and the whole thing has been very painful for her. He asked what we could do to lift the cloud. In response he writes though i didnt know for sure, i imagine the president ial suite of the ritzcarlton in moscow was large enough for a germ phobe to be at a safe distance from that activity. He offers a portrait of what he calls the forest fire that is the trump presidency. Im joined right now by the Washington Post phil rucker who wrote that the report who has read the book. Also julia ansley, reporter for nbc news, jill winebanks, former watergate prosecutor and legal contributor, robert costa, National Political reporter with the Washington Post and msnbc political analy
Are you watching that mess that is going on right now with the caravan coming up . Are you watching this . And our laws are so weak, so pathetic, given to us by democrats, theyre so pathetic, nancy pelosi, chuck schumer. Our laws are so corrupt, i call them the dumbest immigration laws anywhere on earth. Laila santiago has been following the caravans long trip north and shes in tijuana now joining us from there. What is going on . What is going on behind you . What is going on with the attempt to get into the Processing Center as we speak . Reporter right, let me walk you through what is going on behind me. We have been with this group all night as they have waited here in the cold in the dark. Ive watched as shivering children are covered with blankets and tarps by their parents. They have actually just received some food, someone brought some over to so they could eat something. Im not sure if thats going to be the only meal they get today, kate. But theyre waking up, theyre moving a
Who happened to be married to a lobbyist. He maintained a secret calendar to hide his contacts. That whistle blower said aides met regularly to scrub his calendar of anything that might look bad. According to a new report directly asking the president to fire jeff sessions. Joining me now is epa whistle blow blower. I want to get clear, and you want to get clear, you are support of the president of the united states. You have no ideological or political ax to grind. Is that correct . Not at all. It is just the opposite. I am still the biggest trump supporter and lifelong supporter. I would go through a brick wall for the man today. I want to talk about the calendars. It is not uncommon that agency heads have two calendars. A public calendar and a private cal der. My understanding is there is something other than that going on. Explain what was happening. Like you said, you have the two calendars. But there was a third calendar. We would go on and do these things and before the trips, n
In mexico, theyre doing nothing for us. Nothing. You have a 2,000 journey through mexico and walk through mexico like its walking through central park. One of the reasons im being tough because they do nothing for us at the border. They encourage people to walk through and go into the United States. In the end it wasnt international outrage, republican pushback or calls by religious leaders that swayed the president. It was these images, bad optics of small children crying that the president could not get away from. According to axios President Trump experienced an overdose of the outrage and media frenzy.

Mexican Border visiting a childrens shelter and repor
