Important moment in our nations history. he cannot wide. we cannot allow him to hide. he must testify publicly. he needs to look right into that camera and tell the american people what he found. it cannot be any other way. we have to push back. if he wants to be in private, im sorry, mr. mueller. president trump now slamming that federal judge who blocked construction of parts of his southern border wall. the president tweeting, this is a ruling against border security and in favor of crime, ...

Second day of his state visit to japan, including a planned visit to meet the new emperor and going ringside against a sumo wrestler that weighs 390 pounds, and, of course, there were some rounds of golf. they were going to talk trade but said, instead, let me take a selfie first. the president met with japanese prime minister as you can see there, shinzo abe, and did discuss trade. stoked new controversies along the way, downplaying north koreas recent missile threat, while contradicting nation...

We were walking into about this trip. the president put it front and center shortly before he went golfing with the prime minister. the president is essentially saying they may concern some people, they do not concern him. of course, two people those missile tests have concerned not only the national security adviser john bolton, who said they violated those u.n. resolutions, but the prime minister of japan who has been concerned for a long time about whether or not the president is going to kee...

Missiles are of great concern to the japanese. and what the president said flies in the face of what prime minister abe has said, which is what john bolton said, that it is a violation of the u.n. security resolution. the japanese view that testing by north korea as simply unacceptable. so while the president has said that before, shortly after the testing happened, the timing is what is so surprising, just before he goes golfing with prime minister abe near where i am here in tokyo. and during ...

Successfully staved off those auto tariffs. the administration did put a six-month deadline on that to work out a potential deal. so it is true that this tweet from the president kind of set the tone moving forward, and it will be interesting to see, ana, what this first face-to-face meeting will be like between president trump and abe right there on the golf course. >> pamela brown in tokyo, thank you. i want to bring in washington correspondent for "new york magazine" and cnns senior little an...

Investments. its my sincere hope that the era, the economic ties between the united states and japan continue to grow deeper and stronger if thats possible. i think we right now probably have the best relationship with japan that weve ever had. >> reporter: despite having the best relationship, he believes the united states has ever had with japan, the two sides are still far apart on a potential bilateral trade deal. president trump wants access to japanese agricultural markets and shinzo abe w...

Trade is certainly going to be on the agenda for the bilateral talks about president trump will have with prime minister oiabe. so will north korea. and national security adviser john bolton in a talk with reporters just acknowledged that north korea did violate united nations security council resolutions with their recent missile tests. that is a significant statement that the u.s. is making. it is the first time weve heard such a high level official talk about that. so i expect that those two ...

This entire trip. yes, theres going to be this big friendship between president trump and prime minister abe on display, theyre going to go golfing, go to a sumo wrestling match and of course have dinner with the newly crowned emperor but in the background are these very real and substantiative issues, including trade, you saw the president say he believes japan has this edge against the united states here, and that is something that he wants to change even though were not expecting some kind of...
