Good morning, everybody. Its friday, march 30th. We begin with President Trumps relationship with russia and Vladimir Putin. Multiple Senior Administration officials telling nbc news that trump has told his aides not to talk publicly about policy moves the white house implements against russia.

He arrived on the 22nd to attend a wedding of a fellow marine. He didnt show up. And thats when everyone became worried because it was so unlike him. When he travels, he usually stays in close contact with his family, especially his parents. And then they get the notification that he has been detained.
