rolled out in the budget yesterday. is the number that is always been or was it just done can you talk to us about the funding that is what was requested, has been put into the president s budget. when was it was in the budget that was rolled out yesterday. we just we don t write a budget in 20 minutes so it s been a part of something that s been ongoing. i understand that. there s some things in that budget mr. mulvaney did not tell us about. that means you didn t ask those questions. i m going to keep going. he didn t give us the information. i wanted to get some clarification from you regarding the testimony, sworn testimony today by the fbi director, laid out the timeline and according to the fbi director s testimony, the fbi submitted a portion report on the investigation in question of porter s background
have photographs. when you look at that pulled together, you realize that rob porter did the right thing by resigning. sounds like you believe the women. i have no reason not to believe the women and a week ago i had no reason to believe that ever happened. in op-ed, holderness said she was dismassed when kellyanne conway said she was worried about the safety of hope hicks who is reportedly dating rob porter. watch again. i m very close to hope hicks. i don t worry about her in that respect. i m sorry for any suffering that this woman has endured. for hope, i rarely met someone so strong and excellent instincts and loyalty and smarts. and holderness said i have no reason to believe her not to say that hicks is not a strong woman but her statement implies that those that have been in abusive
check in march and a complete background investigation in late july. yesterday when i asked you about the white house counsel learned about mr. porter, had he learned before the report in the daily mail last week, your reply to me was the process was ongoing and the white house had not received any specific papers regarding the completion of that background check. so those two statements, the fbi director s statement, mr. wray and your statement yesterday seemed to be at odds with one another. do you see anything that you d like to clarify in terms of what i asked you today based upon your answer yesterday? as i said earlier, my understanding is any information would have gone to the personnel security office. that office had not completed their process in order to make a recommendation for adjudication to the white house. that was ongoing. recommendation had not been made.
relationships are not strong. show goes on to say surviving an abusive relationship takes genuine strength. shep? shepard: trace, the white house is facing criticism over one of the president s tweets. yeah. that tweet is the reason that kellyanne conway got involved in this to do damage control. the white house has gone out of the way to say that the president supports victims of domestic abuse. he said that people s lives are being shattered by a mere allegation. some are true, some are false. some are old and some are new. there is no recovery for someone falsely accused. life and career are gone. is there no such thing any longer as due process? rob porter denies the allegation saying the reality behind the black eye picture of colbie holderness is nowhere close to what is being described. holderness said the abuse
question as to whether it didn t or didn t. listen to sarah sanders laying out her new timeline here. we expressed the process extensively last week. the white house security office received information last year and what they considered to be the final background investigation report in november. they had not made a final recommendation for adjudication to the white house because the process was still ongoing when rob porter resigned. so let s dial back to what we first learned from the white house last week after these allegations became public. we were told by the press secretary that the investigation was ongoing. if the white house personnel security office had not made a final determination about porter s security clearance status, you can say that yes, the investigation was ongoing even though the fbi investigation had long been wrapped up. in terms of the information that the fbi had in march and july and november and january, colby
