They were5 a. M. , informed that Traffic Control lost contact with the plane. A Ukraine Interior Ministry spokesman, they feel it was shot down by rebels. The rebels deny that at this point. According to Ukrainian Air Traffic Control, the plane was flying at almost 34,000 feet, and so it would take a fairly sophisticated surfacetoair missile to do that. Members,ngers, 15 crew a total of 295, according to the Ukrainian Government, all of them have been killed. There is an unconfirmed report that 23 of them were americans. Again, no confirmation of that. United states had closed the airspace to u. S. Carriers in april, and why the europeans did not close it, they made a basically offlimits, telling pilots because of the war zone they should avoid the area, so that was a question why the plane was in the area at the time. Russians say they close the airspace because they have to fly into russia out of the ukraine. Ukrainian see the airspace was open today. That is the very latest. We are

A look at Breaking News, politics and reports from around the world. Its more of a custom inside the justice department. It doesnt say that there cant be an investigation 60 days out from an election. What it says is the norm is that there isnt an overt move in an investigation dealing with an elected official or somebody on the ballot at 60 days before the election. For example, a subpoena, an indictment or pushing to get an interview during that window. Thats true. But at the same time you alluded to this, wolf giuliani is conceding that if there is no resolution between now and labor day, which is effectively the september deadline hes talking about, that it might not be the worst thing in the world politically, not legally but politically to give the republicans a Rallying Point to kind of protect the president , not unlike what you heard devin nunes say on that tape. To protect the president from

Now he says they seem to be lacking intelligent. Most recently he suggested lebron james was dumb, we know he thinks congresswoman Maxine Waters is dumb, as well, hes called her low iq. There is history here. Mr. Chairman trump built his brand on the allegation the first africanamerican president was not a legitimate citizen. He demanded to see the africanamerican president s grades in college. More recently he asked white house staffers why the u. S. Should be letting into the country from places like haiti and African Nations instead of, say, norway. Perhaps this weekend on the anniversary of charlottesville, ne neonazis gathering in the white house he will say or tweet something to help bring the nation together. Out, registering voters, a lot of stuff going on. Its sad the president hasnt acknowledged that. This is unfortuna
