Secretary mattis to join the australia ministerial confrontations. Secretary mattis will attend the sha shangri la dialogue in singapore where he will meet with counterparts to discuss security issues. With that ill be glad tieo taka few questions. Kevin. Thanks, sean. I want to ask about the push to the travel ban to the Supreme Court. Is it fair to say one of the reasons the president wants to keep this going is obviously we have a full court impanelled, and if you look back yesterday, it appeared his base was very pleased with what he decided to do. I would also like to ask about some followup on the xl pipeline. Can you give us some follow up in terms of jobs and development . I think what we said with respect to the executive order in question has been fairly consistent since its implementation and the first court action. Last night we asked the Supreme Court to hear this important case and are confident that the president s executive orders are well within the authority to keep t
Nuclear ambitions to a halt. A new message, the president with a new tweet about the attorney general. Why it appears to take on a different tone than other recent ones. Reaction next on msnbc live. We begin with politics. The white house shutting down a new report claiming Vice President mike pence is part of what appears to be a Republican Shadow Campaign for 2020. His press secretary tweeted calling the claims ridiculous fake news and nothing more than Wishful Thinking by New York Times. A white house spokeswoman fired a warning shot in her statement to the times saying the president is as strong as hes ever been in iowa and every ambitious republican knows that. Just a few minutes ago, this message from Corey Lewandowski directed at john kasich who is mentioned in that New York Times article. We beat him by 19 points. I think in john kasichs home state of ohio, we beat him by 10, 11 points. John didnt support President Trump and if he thinks hes going to run against President Trump

What happened earlier today,e around 5 00 local time we came up to the Police Headquarters and a group of the protesters got on top of the police suv. He jumped up and down and broke the windshield. There are some rocks thrown. The bottles thrown were only plastic bottles but the Police Showed up with the right gear and pepper spray. A little conversational and pushing and shoving. Police officers hadju minor injuries and 13 people arrested so far in st. Louis. That is the situation. I personally observed some weapons and at least one of the weapons a fake ak47. Some of the other weapons i cant tell you if they are real. Something that looked like a long rifle. And i could tell a handgun. A se
Going to start with reaction this afternoon after President Trump this morning posted, shall we say a significant series of tweets . The commander in chief tackling topics from north korea, as was just mentioned, to Hillary Clinton. This comes after an overnight conversation with south Korean Leader moon jaein. Trump firing off an apparent shot at north Korean Leader kim jongun, saying, i spoke with president moon of south korea last night, asked him how rocket man is doing. Long gas lines forming in north korea. Too bad Top Trump Administration officials h. R. Mcmaster and nikki haley offering up these comments about the president s hard line on north korea on the sunday talk shows. Take a listen here. Have you heard that from the president before or is that a new one . Well, thats a new one i think maybe for the president , but it reminds me of a cover of the economist a few years ago portraying him as rocket man. But of course, thats where the rockets are coming from. Rockets, thoug
