Also, there was the sword dance. Look at him groove. It was quite a trip. And for the Trump Administration it had to be a really nice distraction because just days before that trip and that sword dance Robert Mueller had been appointed special counsel to take over the russia investigation and to look into trumps firing of the fbi director, jim comey, earlier that month. But it turned out the trump trip to the middle east and the Mueller Investigation were on a collision course. Shortly after trump got back from that trip to saudi arabia he completely upended his u. S. Foreign policy in the middle east by a tweet, by backing an aggressive move by saudi arabia against the nation of qatar, a staunch american ally that hosts a giant American Military base. And for many months that whole weird Foreign Policy shakeup remained just that, strange, kind of inexplicable, but solely a Foreign Policy issue. And then our understanding of the entire affair suddenly changed radically. What had been a
You do not want to miss this story and the new weird information about it. So like i said, big show ahead. But i want to start tonight with this photo. You remember this photo. Its the picture that launched a thousand memes. This was donald trump in may of last year on his very first trip abroad as president to saudi arabia. There he was with the saudi king and the president of egypt, all with their hands on that mysterious glowing orb. Also, there was the sword dance. Look at him groove. It was quite a trip. And for the Trump Administration it had to be a really nice distraction because just days before that trip and that sword dance Robert Mueller had been appointed special counsel to take over the russia investigation and to look into trumps firing of the fbi director, jim comey, earlier that month.

For People Living there, how big a deal is it . Im going to have to keep my voice down a little bit, the ceremonys beginning right now. All the delegates are here. Theres is the official start of the ceremony. The official presentation of the colors theyre walking in, the american flag. At this moment, the u. S. Consulate in jerusalem is becoming the u. S. Embassy in jerusalem. For the nation of israel, the state of israel, this is a very big deal. This is a recognition of their long claim that all of jerusalem, east and west, are part of their what they call undisputed, undivided historic capital of israel. But of course it is disputed. There are now on the ground tens of thousands of palestinians. The latest estimates are 40,000 palestinians protesting in gaza. And as they approach the Israeli Border at multiple locations, israelis are responding with live fire and the death toll keeps changing but about 40 people or so have been killed so far. So now we are hearing the National Anth
The Trump White House has showed us something weve never seen before from any white house. Today it was the silence from donald trump and his administration after a white house official, kelly sadler, mocked senator john mccains brain cancer saying that mccains opposition to trumps nominee to lead the cia doesnt matter, hes dying anyway. There was strong rejection of sadlers comments but not a single word of it came from donald trump or the Trump White House. In a normal white house, mocking a veteran over a cancer diagnose would get you a public apology or get someone fired but the Trump White House is not a normal white house so we got this. Reporter does the white house not think you need to condemn these remarks . Again, im not going to validate a leak one way or the other out of an internal staff meeting. Are you saying she didnt say this . Again, im not going to validate a leak out of an internal staff meeting one way or another. Why not just apologize to senator john mccain . I
