From capitol hill. Rosemary and george, it turned out not to be as late a night as we expected on capitol hill but thats not because there was some sort of grand bargain struck between republicans and democrats. Instead theyve decided to yet again delay this process, extending this vote just a little bit longer, till noon eastern time on monday. This is what Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell said on the floor late sunday night. Should these issues not be resolved by the time the funding bill before us expires on february 8th, 2018, assuming that the government remains open, it would be my intention to proceed to legislation that would address daca, border security, and related issues. If you listen to what the Senate Majority leader is offering, it is a promise to Senate Democrats and some republicans that they will address immigration, in particular protections for those d. R. E. A. M. Ers, those hundreds of thousands of young people brought to this country through no fault of their own, and were once protected by the daca program. But theres been a long sense of a lack of trust between republicans and democrats when it comes to this issue. Senator jeff flake of arizona, one of the key negotiators from the republican side, told me last night after mac cob nels speech that he is hoping the fact that the Senate Majority leader made the promise to take up that daca issue before this next deadline for the continuing resolution will be enough to convince democrats to vote yes. Take a listen. I think there is a lack of trust. And thats why i wanted to stand up afterwards and reiterate and to confirm what the leader has committed to. I do think, given the highprofile nature of this whole debate, that it will be impossible for us not to move on to immigration. And the democrats still have the spending caps as leverage. Beyond this time. So i do think well get there. Beyond the back and forth, though, between republicans and democrats on capitol hill, there is a stark reality for the hundreds of thousands of federal Government Employees across the country who now will not have to come into work on monday morning and that means they wont receive a paycheck on monday as a result. They are continuing to remain on edge as republicans and democrats here in washington iron out their differences. They are hoping to cast a vote on this issue noon eastern time on monday. Lets break this down politically. Weve got our republican digital strategist, austin james, and democratic strategist, caroline heldman, good to have you here. Lets talk about this. Another day passes, another delay that weve seen. But there is a sense now, you get a sense that there is some progress in the air. Also, you can hear it in the tone of the minority leader Chuck Schumer. Lets listen to what he had to say after Mitch Mcconnell. We can talk about it here on the other side. I am happy to continue my discussion with the majority leader about reopening the government. Weve had several conversations. Talks will continue. But we have yet to reach an agreement on a path forward that would be acceptable for both sides. Comparing that to what we heard just hours ago, days ago, the heated incendiary rhetoric, seems that cooler heads are prevailing. Signs of progress, but still there is a big deficit with democrats who dont trust that republicans are serious about this. Carol line, how do both sides bridge the gap of trust . First to you. I think there are fundamental disagreements here. Daca on one hand, which 9 of 10 americans support, and the republicans want to tie it and donald trump wants tie to it building the wall, which only 3 in 10 americans support. So you have a fundamental disagreement. As much as they are posturing that they want to get something done, i think the very fact that we are here shows just how deep this division runs. I do think that we will reach an agreement, hopefully very soon. Although if they dont reach an agreement in the next couple of days, and dig in their heels, because its a real disagreement, this Government Shutdown could go on for quite some time at great expense to talks pairs. Austin, to you. The same question for democrats who question whether republicans are serious about this. What do you have to say to the democrats . Yeah, listen, i think its less of more of a compromise and more of really a breakdown of the democratic unity. I had a friend who was kind of going on tv and doing some talking points about a week ago. At that time, the polling really was quite negative toward republicans. And i think things have shifted dramatically. I think what youre looking at is youre looking at the polling i think its a cnn poll that came out recently to match numbers to carolines point, says that over 60 or almost 60 of americans support the funding of the bill, funding of the government, at no cost to speaking to illegal immigration. I think onethird said that daca was more important. And so i think democrats are kind of reading the tea leafs and theres a group worrying about reelection in States Donald trump won, and i think youre starting to see crack under what the ultimate motive of the democrats is and the changing of the tide of the American People. Senator flake when asked whether the senate could come to any agreement by february 8th, lets listen. I dont know. I hope we can but im doubting it because that relies on the white house. To actually work with us on this. We havent seen that yet. They havent seen that yet. The white house working with them on coming to an agreement. Thats damning, isnt it, coming from a republican senator. I want to go to you first, austin james. How do you explain that . Listen, i think one of the more troubling narratives were seeing play out here is that you have the white house and then you have kind of the republican party. And i think some of that is starting to break. I mean, stephen miller, to his point about illegal immigration, just not being a motivating factor, you know, weve got people fighting for our freedom overseas and theyre taking a back seat to less than 1 million Illegal Immigrants, that is a narrative that ushered donald trump in and still works even though i think Steven Miller himself has got the energy of wednesday adams. He himself as a messenger may have to go but i think that message still works. Regardless of those talking points coming out of congress i think you see a more unified message across all republicans, including trump and the white house, and ultimately that is prevailing against the nonunified voice of democrats. Caroline, im sure youd want to reply to austin and the poll numbers he was using. Because not everyone is in agreement that the blame, the finger of blame, is being pointed at the democrats for this shutdown. Well, according to that exact same poll that austin cited, 50 of americans, or 48 , blame the gop and donald trump for the shutdown, 1 in 3 americans blame the democrats. So americans are actually really squarely placing the blame at the feet of republicans and thats because if you look de caused this, go back to january 11th. Donald trump, the negotiations about daca broke down when he flipped his position and he referred to countries as sholes. That is what started this Government Shutdown. Donald trump talked about how we needed a Government Shutdown in september as though its something flippant, not something thats going to cause 850,000 people to be furloughed. You see mulvaney actually talking about the Government Shutdown being cool. I would very much disagree with austin that this message works or stephen millers position works. 9 of 10 americans want daca to be fixed. The republicans defunded c. H. I. P. Not at the loss not at the extension of nonfunding. I think thats the bigger issue. How we got here is a nonissue, its where we go from here its absolutely the issue. The only person who can get us out of this is donald trump having a clear head, not listening to extremists or people like miller youre giving him too much credit. Youre giving the president of the United States too much credit . No, hes the person who caused the breakdown hes the one that has said, i will extend past march, i am trying to work towards a solution. Ultimately what im saying is that the American People literally see this narrative as, why are we holding up funding, why are we having dont put it that way, thats a republican talking point. I want totalk aboutthis because youre both getting to this issue again this trust gap. We talked about it a moment ago. Democrats not trusting republicans. Some republicans unsure of where the republican president stands. We have seen the u. S. President change his mind from time to time. The question to you, austin. Does that cause a problem here, as again were seeing a sense of progress here. Are republicans certain that they know that this u. S. President is firmly in their court . Yeah, no, listen, i think thats a fair point. But ultimately kind of back to my previous point, i think what were going to see is republicans kind of offering theyre going to kind of offer that olive branch that is the, we will talk about it soon, bring it to the floor at x date. Like i said, i think youre going to see democrats who are in kind of a precarious position in some of these red states start to fall. Ultimately allow the question was about the u. S. President , to be specific. Do you get a sense that he is sure, is he can republicans count on his vote, his approval, with where they are now . Listen, i cant speak for the president , i will say this i think he is kind of looking at the tide and sees the upper hand. I noticed if you i think we all know, his tweet today, he referenced pulling out the Nuclear Option which probably is not the right solution here. But again, i cant speak for the president , but i think he wants a solution, i think republicans want a solution. Ultimately theyre not willing to put something in stone because this isnt a funding issue. Daca isnt a funding issue. I think having discussion about things like some of the domestic funding that democrats ultimately want is probably more what Mitch Mcconnell is looking to do. Caroline, this is the problem, though, isnt it. Because we saw in that tuesday meeting the bipartisan meeting, that donald trump had said, im going to sign whatever you in front of me, hammer this out and ill bought my name to it. He went back to the white house and his advisers got to him and he changed his mind. This is at the root of the problem. How do you and the democrats deal with that . And also to you, austin, thats a problem for the republicans. Because the American Voters see this and the world is seeing this. The flipflopping. He absolutely flipflopped on his daca position. Again. Which is why we are here. The democrats are looking at at what the republicans have done, the republicans have withdrawn fund for c. H. I. P. , theyve withdrawn protection forth daca folks. And we are now demanding that these be fixed. These are things that republicans broke. And we are not going to be compromising until these americans are protected. Until 9 million children and 800,000 people who were brought here as children get protections. And its absolutely a trust issue when you have a president calling immigrants, referring to them from shole countries and causing a breakdown. There is no trust because he has flip from thatted back and forth and ultimately he needs to stop listening to extremists like stephen mill history taunted immigrants when he was in high school and has a long record of something i would call racial resentment. He needs to stop listening to these folks and do what the right for everybody, including the military, the c. H. I. P. Kids who need medical care, the 800,000 dream d. R. E. A. M. Ers or daca recipients. She brings up a good point, so c. H. I. P. , the health care of our children domestically, those who are fighting for our freedom on foreign soil, i think those are issues the machine people care about. And ultimately shes right that daca is over the numbers tell us that the American People do care about this. But again, like i said, this is a linear process. And so i think democrats will ultimately lose in 2018 in 2020 if they continue to take these kind of rogue issues and put them in front of the American People. Austin james, thank you so much for your time. Caroline heldman, thank you for being with us. Well stay in touch with you both as we try to sort all this out and see where it goes, thank you. Well take a short break. Still to come, members of the u. S. Military still have to report for duty, but if the government shut down continues they may not get paid. Next, some of the reallife consequences of this shut down. If yor crohns symptoms are holding you back, and your Current Treatment hasnt worked well enough, it may be time for a change. Ask your doctor about entyvio, the only biologic developed and approved just for uc and crohns. Entyvio works at the site of inflammation in the gi tract and is clinically proven to help many patients achieve both symptom relief and remission. Infusion and serious allergic reactions can happen during or after treatment. Entyvio may increase risk of infection, which can be serious. Pml, a rare, serious, potentially fatal brain infection caused by a virus may be possible. This condition has not been reported with entyvio. Tell your doctor if you have an infection, experience frequent infections or have flulike symptoms or sores. Liver problems can occur with entyvio. If your uc or crohns treatment isnt working for you, ask your gastroenterologist about entyvio. Entyvio. Relief and remission within reach. A heart transplant. Thats a whole different ballgame. I was in shock. I am very proud of the development of drugs that can prevent the rejection and prevent the recurrence of the original disease. I never felt i was going to die. We know so much about transplantation. And were living longer. You cannot help but be inspired by the opportunities that a transplant would offer. My donors mom says you were meant to carry his story. Im jimmy, this is my definition of fresh since 1983. Welcome back. Lets just recap our top story. The u. S. Government shutdown is on day three. Lawmakers have not been able to agree on a deal but the senate is set to vote on monday at noon to reopen the government. In the meantime, thousands of nonessential federal employees will be furloughed. Our premier league correspondent ryan brown reports the u. S. Military may also be affected. As the Government Shutdown continues, both sides have pointed to its effect on the military as a reason that it needs to come to an end. Now the military will be impacted in a variety of ways. U. S. Troops, u. S. Uniform personnel, will continue to perform their duties both here at home and overseas. But if the shutdown continues to the next pay period, those troops, including those in combat, will not be paid. Death benefits to be paid potentially to Fallen Service members families could potentially be achbled as well by a shutdown. About 50 to 75 of the department of defenses civilian workforce will be furloughed, that can affect contracting, can affect other maintenance programs, something a very big concern to the secretary of defense, james mattis. Reserve training will be canceled as well. All these things having an effect not necessarily on active military operations but a lot of the support services, which is why secretary of defense mattis said a shutdown would have a terrible impact on the United States military and the department of defense, but u. S. Troops around the world would continue performing their jobs. Thanks so much. Joining us from los angeles, cnn political commentators, democrat strategist dave jacobson, and republican consultant john thomas. Thanks to both of you for joining us. Now on sunday, we all watched republicans and democrats pointing the finger of blame at each other for this Government Shutdown, instead of actually finding a solution toward essentially a very highlevel of dysfunction. So whos to blame for this shutdown . What do the polls tell us . Well, rosemary, politico and Morning Consult put out a poll just hours ago in which they asked the American People who do they blame for the Government Shutdown . 41 of respondents said it was republicans. And only 36 of respondents said democrats. Why do americans believe republicans are to blame . For the first time in modern history, you have oneparty rule with a Government Shutdown. Donald trump, the republican, in the white house. Republicans control the United States senate and the house of representatives. This is unprecedented. And i think it underscores a true failure of leadership from the top down when it comes to republicans. And the American People know it. John thomas, do you agree . I suspect not. No, of course not. But daves not wrong about the polling. I think first of all, its almost margin of error stuff. But the reason you see American Public today believing that in fact republicans are slightly more responsible is because most americans dont understand that you have to get 60 votes to pass this budget bill. And the fact is there is no path to 60 without democrat support. So in fact it is the democrats that are truly to blame. I think Public Opinion will begin to reflect that when they start to understand that 60 vote count. Heres the most amazing thing to me, rosemary, is that the reason this is a bill that no one objects to the things in the bill, yet democrats are voting to shut down the government over daca, a policy that doesnt expire for weeks and that both trump and the republicans have said they want to fix and figure out. John, to your point, this question to you as well. So two democratic sources say they expect that mondays key vote will fall short of that 60 votes thats necessary. Thats what were hearing from two democratic sources. So the question, john, to you. As this drags on, if it drags on, who will be most at risk to feel the ire of voters . Will it be democrats or republicans . I think everybodys a loser in this particular situation. I think some are worse off than others. I frankly think democrats are backing themselves into a corner, specifically Democratic Senators that are in states where trump won. For instance, Heidi Heitkamp in north dakota. If she has to vote to keep this open, if she doesnt, it could jeopardize her reelect. So i think the other thing is, democrats are making saying the reason they didnt vote for this bill is simply because they want Illegal Immigrants to have legal status, and thats contradictory to republicans in trumps America First message. Dave, same question to you. Who stands the most to lose here as this continues . Well, i think the polling that i alluded to earlier clearly is the latest evidence that shows the republicans are already hurting more than democrats. And thats because democrats are advancing the agenda of the American People. Poll after poll consistently has shown the American People want a fingds to daca. Cbs put out a poll the other day, 87 of americans want a daca fix. 79 of those are republicans. When it comes to c. H. I. P. , the Childrens HealthInsurance Program that was part of the house bill that had the sixyear extension, but not a permanent solution in extension of funding, that even has more support than the daca fix does. Clearly the democrats are advancing an agenda that the American People overwhelmingly support. And going back to johns point in terms of passing a deal, republicans are the party in power. Republicans have had one year of the Trump Presidency to pass a comprehensive budget. But what do the republicans do . They jam through congress a widely unpopular tax cut for millionaires and billionaires and wall street banks and corporations at a time when they could have been passing a comprehensive budget. And i think that really serves as fresh evidence of what the republican agenda is and their priorities. Its looking out for the rich and kicking the middle class and poor people to the curb. John thomas, to you now. I want to tackle the daca problem. Because we heard from President Trump in that tuesday bipartisan meeting when he said i will sign anything put in front of me. Then we suddenly see this backflip. This is the problem. And this is really at the core of the lack of trust on the part of the democrats when it comes to making a decision on this and theyre using this as leverage to get what they need for the d. R. E. A. M. Ers. So do you agree that there is a problem here and the root of it appears to be President Trump and what he believes . Because Mitch Mcconnell himself has said he doesnt really know exactly what President Trump wants. Yeah, but this fight really is between Chuck Schumer and Mitch Mcconnell. Like the president said, he would essentially sign what makes it to his desk. And its not that President Trump does want to make a deal on daca, rosemary, he also wants to keep the government open. The challenge with daca, like to daves point, most americans do want to keep daca, but the devil is in the details. Daca doesnt mean amnesty for the parents as well as the kids . Does it mean they can use welfare programs . What about chain migration . It is a complicated problem were not getting the answer to tonight, but we want to keep the government open. People like dave and Chuck Schumer are literally willing to throw 8 million children under the bus that rely on programs like c. H. I. P. , and our military, grieving widows like your reporter said, theyre willing to play politics with those people to get a score on daca, but they can get ate week from now. Dave, this is the problem for the democrats, there is a vulnerability here. Because a lot of people could turn around and say, just open up the government and deal with daca a little later, because its not a problem for daca right now. I think johns right that the devil is in the details. At the end of the day, the American People are going to look at which Party Controls all different arms of the government. And thats the republicans. Theyre in charge. Theyre not going to look at all the finite nuances when it comes to these votes. Lets not forget that four republicans actually voted with the democrats to shut down the government. Lindsey graham, jeff flake, mike lee, rand paul. So this isnt purely a democratic strategy. Theres a number of key highprofile republicans who lined up with the democrats because they wanted a comprehensive solution. And its clear that democrats want to bring some sort of commonsense consensus effort forward, and thats why they were able to partner with those four republicans to come up with some sort of a plan. Its also why senator Lindsey Graham and dick durbin presented a comprehensive deal to the president. Its on republicans like donald trump who shut down that deal who are ultimately causing the shutdown. Well, you know the one thing that is certain, heres where we are. The incendiary rhetoric, it seems to have been toned down a bit. There are thousands of people who are uncertain about what happens next. Do they get a paycheck . Do they go to work . Thats where we are right now and well have to see if these sides could come together to reach some sort of a deal. Dave jacobson, john thomas, thank you so much for your time. The u. S. Government again shut down. And now we move into the work week. After the senate failed to reach an agreement over the weekend, what happens next . We look into it as cnn newsroom continues. New year, new phones for the family. Join tmobile, and when you buy one of the latest samsung phones get a Samsung Galaxy s8 free. Plus, unlimited family plans come with netflix included. Ask clsh which are. Welcome back to our viewers in the u. S. And around the world. Youre watching cnn newsroom. The top story were following, the u. S. Government is now in its third day of a Government Shutdown. The senate failed to reach an agreement on a temporary spending plan on sunday night. Democrats are insisting a program protecting young undocumented immigrants from deportation be tied to the spending bill. Republicans want to vote on that separately. Another vote on the spending bill is scheduled for monday at noon. So lets step back from the brink. Lets stop victimizing the American People. And get back to work on their behalf. I am happy to continue my discussion with the majority leader about reopening the government. Weve had several conversations. Talks will continue. But we have yet to reach an agreement on a path forward that would be acceptable for both sides. So lets talk about where we are right now. Bringing in david siders, david is a Senior Reporter for politico, good to have you with us. We heard from Mitch Mcconnell and Chuck Schumer, the tone certainly cooler than we saw in the past few days. There is a sense of progress, but theres also a big trust gap that exists. Well, i think definitely theres a gap in trust. But what you talked about first is this really was a day of inching i think closer to a deal than we had been before. Keep in mind it had been a day, i think, since Mitch Mcconnell and Chuck Schumer had spoken, so here they were speaking for half an hour today, or on sunday. Now were into monday and well see. The gap that needs to be closed is that democrats need to be convinced that republicans are serious about addressing daca. And theyre mistrustful of that right now. Republicans have to make that case. I think thats the way you come to a deal. Whether it happens today or later on. So david, how likely is it do you think that they will reach the necessary 60 votes when they decide this at noon monday . I think the likelihood of an agreement at noon monday is slim only because of the reporting that you folks mentioned earlier, the two sources, the staffers i think on the democratic side saying that its unlikely that that number gets reached. Lets talk about the u. S. President again. Weve seen him change his position from time to time throughout the course of this entire debate. The question now, do republicans know where he stands on this issue . And how does that factor into, again, this trust gap that exists between democrats and republicans . No, this is clearly its complicating the conversations. Youve heard both democrats and republicans complaining about not knowing where this president is on the deal. And so thats clearly been a complicating factor. There has been some praise for the president s i think public, anyway, standing away from the debate. So you havent seen well, we did see the one tweet on sunday about how he thought the republicans should use the Nuclear Option. There wasnt this broad side of tweets all day long interrupting negotiations or talks. I think that might be the one positive that you hear people talk about with the president s involvement. And david, you mentioned that you didnt think that this was going to get passed, that the government would reopen in the noon vote monday. The problem with that, of course, once they get to the vote, if thats what they decide will likely happen, they probably will then defer it for another day, presumably. And people are going to get pretty sick of this. Because it does reveal and reflect dysfunction of a government. So who will be blamed ultimately, do you think . I think the preshut down polling showed that there was a little bit more blame to go for the democrats than for the republicans. But i think the reason that you see both sides wanting to get to an answer here, and when i say i dont think it will happen at the noon, i think its unlikely. Of course all things happen in washington. It may happen today, tomorrow, a week from now. The reason you see both parties wanting to get to a deal is because americans are more than capable of being frustrated and upset with more than one party. I think thats what you see in a shutdown is that the animosity theres plenty to go around for both democrats and republicans. Has this u. S. President , though, done enough to weigh into this debate . I remember with the previous president there was the criticism, the claim that he would lead from behind. So were seeing this president distance himself from the debate. Is that leading from behind . And what does he stand to lose the longer this plays out . Its hard for me to make a judgment on that. Ill say that the that President Trump, when hes talked about shutdown in the past, i think he has called for some responsibility on behalf of the president. On the other hand, you know, the last shutdown was in 2013. The dynamics are clearly different now. The president s poll numbers are abysmal. Im not sure that the shutdown has a huge impact on it one way or the other. But well see. If it goes on for two weeks or three weeks or a month, then yeah, then i think we do need to Start Talking about how it plays for the president , how it plays for the midterms. Im just not sure were at that point yet. Well see how this vote turns out in the next few hours. David siders, thank you so much for your perspective and analysis.

Over the weekend, hundreds of thousands of demonstrators, celebrities, politicians, spilled into the streets of many different cities demanding greater rights and equality for women. Cnns sara sidner takes us to the closing rally that took place in las vegas, nevada. Reporter we heard a lot from some representatives of congress who couldnt be here today, of course, because of the shutdown. Ill give you a look at the crowd here that is watching all of this go down. I do want to talk a little bit about what this is all about. Because last year was about moving your feet and getting the attention of the world. This year is really about strategy. Its about power to the polls. And that has been the mantra over and over and over again. They are trying to flip seats. They have chosen nevada for a reason. That reason is its still considered a battleground state. And theyre hoping to flip some seats here. But they are also very concerned about this shutdown. And hear what one of the organizers had to say about the shutdown and who they feel they should blame. This is the first time in history, when you had a unified house and a unified white house that weve seen a Government Shutdown. I think this clearly demonstrates the catastrophic leadership that we have in place right now, why its so very important that we win in 2018. Reporter some of the other people that you will hear from today and you will hear a performance, cher will be here as well. The organizers of the womens march have been in full force here. Linda sarsour talking to the crowd and getting them rallied up. This is a rally, not a march here in las vegas, but it is a big one. Sara sidner filing that report in las vegas, nevada. Now to the u. S. Vice president , mike pence. arrived in tel aviv, receiving a warm welcome from israeli leaders. In the coming hours hes expected to meet with the Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, who discuss peace and Regional Security issues. However, palestinians are boycotting pences trip after President Donald Trump recognized jerusalem as israels capital. Oren lieberman has more. Reporter the Vice President s visit is a bit of a victory lap for the Trump Administration and the Israeli Government after pence first visited egypt and jordan on this swing through the middle east. Pence will be treated as the man of the hour here after President Trump recognized jerusalem as the capital of israel last month. Pence will be welcomed with fanfare by israeli leaders at all of the events, the biggest of which will be a speech before Parliament Monday afternoon. Hell go to the western wall in the old city of jerusalem, as trump did in may. Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu speaking at the Foreign Ministry shortly after pences arrival said the two will discuss security and peace. Security focuses on the iran israel deal. Take seriously the threat to cancel the deal if its not fixed. Netanyahu directed his message of peace on palestinian president abbas. He said, if youre not willing to discuss peace with the americans, you dont want peace. Palestinian leaders boycotted the american delegation following trumps decision on jerusalem. Despite pence reiterating in jordan and egypt the white house is still committed to a Peace Process between israelis and palestinians. While pence is here, the Palestinian Leader will be in brussels on monday meeting with European Union leaders. Oren lieberman, cnn, jerusalem. This week the wall street journal reported new details about an alleged affair between donald trump and a former porn star named Stormy Daniels. The report details how mr. Trumps personal lawyer went to Great Lengths to keep it under wraps. Now the woman at the center of the alleged scandal seems to be capitalizing on the attention as our Diane Gallagher reports. Stormy daniels brings her making america horny again tour this saturday reporter cashing in on controversy. On the heels of stormys nationally publicized affair reporter that that ar faye allegedly between porn star Stormy Daniels and the president of the United States in 2006 after the two met at a golf tournament. Daniels, whose real name is stephanie clifford, and the white house, have denied the relationship. But thats not stopping this club from promoting it. This is the twitter storm sensation reporter friday intouch magazine published the transcript of a 2011 interview with daniels dishing on the tawdry details of her alleged sexual encounter with donald trump. According to the Associated Press the tabloid never published it because Donald Trumps personal lawyer threatened to sue. Neither trump nor his lawyer, michael cohen, have responded to requests for comment. Several news outlets say a few weeks before the 2016 election, daniels told them she wanted to talk about her relationship with trump. And then suddenly she didnt. The wall street journal also reports thats around the time cohen formed a Shell Company to pay the porn star 130,000 in exchange for her silence. Cnn has obtained documents that show cohen did set up at least two corporations in delaware around that time, including one on september 30th, 2016, called Resolution Consultants llc. Those records show he dissolved it october 17th. The same day he incorporated essential consultants llc. And thats the company the journal says cohen used to pay daniels hush money through a series of fake names and legal contracts.

A north korean delegation is in south korea right now to inspect sites for performances during the olympics. The sevenmember advance team was met by dozens of antinorth korean protesters in seoul. The lead singer of kim jonguns girl band is leading the delegation. North korea will send 22 athletes to compete in next months Olympic Games in south korea. Meanwhile tokyo is preparing its citizens for the possibility of a Ballistic Missile launch from pyongyang. Hundreds of people took part in the citys first evacuation drill in the citys center monday. The japanese government has been conducting these drills in cities across the country since march. Cnns will ripley joins us now from tokyo with more on this. Will, it is a chilling drill for the people of japan to have to deal with. What are they saying about this and the threat posed by north korea . Certainly people, given the fact that so many north korean missiles have either flown over this country, like twice last year, or have come very close to this country, numerous cases of missiles coming down in waters near japan. When we were asking people about this missile drill which involves 600 participants in central tokyo, they said, many of them said theyre frightened by the news of north korean missiles, they want to know what they should do if a missile approaches the city, either seek shelter away from windows inside a sturdy building, or run out of the building and go to one of the many subway stations around tokyo. Today in the drill people received alert messages on their cell phones, there was a voice over loud speakers telling them to take cover, ten minutes the later the allclear came and the drill ended. There are other people and protesters, a handful of them but loud, loudly demonstrating saying that they feel the japanese government is overhyping the north korea threat that theyre politicizing it, trying to take advantage of peoples fear about north korea to push forward the japanese governments agenda, the party led by shinzo abe, the liberal Democratic Party of revising this country as pass cyst constitution. That was a goal of Prime Minister abe before the north korea threat fired up. But he has kind of taken that and gave a speech here in tokyo in the last few minutes where he runs again reaffirmed north korea as his number one Foreign Policy issue, saying its a clear and present danger for the people and it did help him to win the north korea issue helped him to win a super majority in the most recent national elections. Interesting. Of course while all this is playing out, north korean delegations are visiting south korea, preparing for the winter olympics. What are japanese authorities saying about that, seeing the two koreas coming together in the midst of this when japan is having to go through drills . Well, certainly japan just like the United States and others have said they encourage talks between the two koreas. But they also have warned repeatedly, again, the Prime Minister speaking here in tokyo a short time ago, reiterating the warning that japan and the world should not let their guard down. Which is why youre seeing the continuation of drills like this. There have been over 100 missile drills held in tokyo just over the last year. This is the first time that japan has ever held drills about potential bombing attacks since world war ii. This is a country obviously accustomed to many now people also have to worry about the threat of a potential Nuclear Attack, this country being the only one in the world that has endured a Nuclear Attack on civilians twice back in world war two. Japanese official says while they expect calm during olympics that. Going to watch closely what happens after the olympics. And they certainly do feel it may be a matter of time before north korean missiles are once again flying towards this country, which is why we see them continuing to hold these types of drills to have citizens prepared just in case. It is major concern for people there. And of course across the globe now. Will ripley joining us live from a very wet tokyo, where it is coming up to 4 00 in the afternoon. Many thanks to you.
