Abcs brad mielke has more. Hey, guys, yeah, after 35 days of furloughs and missed paychecks and confusion at airports we are right back to where we were in december, two sides arguing over a taxpayer funded border wall with precious little time before another Government Shutdown. Thats not the only option. The white house suggested if it gets no concessions from democrats, it will declare a National Emergency at the border. With an abc news poll showing most americans blaming republicans for the shutdown dont expect nancy pelosi to play ball here. Abcs deputy political director maryalice parks says a National Emergency isnt a sure thing here. Terepublicans hao ates and declaring a National Emergency. Hes more likely to listen to the very conservative parts of his party and not the more moderate members, so, yes, you have marco rubio and Lindsey Graham and others saying they dont think its a good idea but you have others, very conservative talk show hosts and radio pundits that say, if he doesnt get anything, this would just be a downfall and that he would have to take sort of those drastic big, bold moves. A lot of shes senators say if you pull the trigger on this you open the door for a democratic president to say ill declare a National Emergency on Climate Change and bring on the taxpayer dollars for that but between that option and another deadlock, the white house might not feel like it has a choice here. Well have a lot more on the implications on start here later this morning. Listen on Apple Podcast or your favorite podcasting app. All right, our thanks to brad.

Stone is denying charges of obstruction and lying to congress, but hes now signaling a willingness to cooperate with robert mueller. Heres abcs tara palmeri. Reporter President Trumps longtime political adviser roger stone strongly denying that he ever communicated with trump about russia or the mueller investigation. None whatsoever. Zero. Categorically. Categorically. Zero. Reporter special Counsel Robert Mueller indicted stone friday on seven counts including obstruction of justice, witness tampering and lying to congress. In Court Filings mueller paints stone as an intermediary between the Trump Campaign and wikileaks which published hacked dnc and Clinton Campaign emails stolen by russia. Now out on bail, stone defiant accusing mueller of trying to intimidate him with the heavily armed predawn fbi raid on friday. They could simply have called my lawyers, and i would have turned myself in. Thats a question it was an expensive show of force to try to depict me as public enemy number one. Lets get these are gestapo tactics. Reporter they show stone threatened witnesses calling one a rat and saying lets get it on, prepare to die. Stone offering this explanation. I do have a million emails. They have been reported. Many of them taken out of context in this indictment but there is nothing to find. Reporter mueller claims stone was directed by a highlevel Trump Campaign official, a chrnlg he denies, but does not rule out cooperating with the special counsel. If there is wrongdoing by others in the campaign that i know about, which i know of none but if there is, i would certainly testify honestly. Id also testify honestly about any other matter including any communications with the president. Its true that we spoke on the phone, but those communications are political in nature, theyre benign. Reporter while theres no mention of collusion in the latest charge, House Intelligence Committee chair adam schiff says its too early to rule that out. I would expect, george, if there is a conspiracy to defraud the united states, a collusion indictment, it would be the last indictment that bob mueller would seek, not the first, so well have to wait to see what evidence he produces.
