Reporter yes, and certainly in a threat zone like north korea. You have Pacific Command out there essentially built around i mean, in addition to china, neutralizing or reducing the north korean threat. Thats under water. Thats on the surface. Thats in the air. And thats from space. Satellites trained down on north korea to keep track of exactly what its doing.

Commitment to be the leader of the free world. I think that, you know, there is definitely a new sheriff in town. Were in the beginning stages of what the trump team will call maximum pressure policy on north korea. They are behaving in a very, very dangerous manner and something will have to be done about it. But i have been pretty severe things that were thinking about. President trump has made it clear we dont threat lines we deal with reality.

Not just off the Health Insurance youre on now, it would kick 22 million americans all of all forms of Health Insurance and leave them uninsured. After all of that, today it became too much for the republicans in washington to bear. For a while i think they thought they could hold the line and stop their own senators from peeling off the bill.

We want to thank our International Viewers for watching. For you, cnn newsroom is next. For our u. S. Viewers, new day continues right now. It was a nothing meeting. Donald trump, junior, met a russian lawyer who claims she had damaging information on Hillary Clinton. The woman in question wasnt anybody off the street. She was closely tied to the kremlin. Everybody knows that russia meddled in our election. The idea we can work in a Cyber Security group is a dangerously naive view to take.
