In washington where it is day two of french president emanuel macron are meeting at the white house. Well see if that special relationship between macron and the president can change the president s mind on a host of issues, primarily the Iran Nuclear Deal. Even as the president hosted his french counterpart, mr. Trump was pressed on issues here at home. And at this afternoons joint Press Conference, it was his embattled pick to be the next secretary of Veterans Affairs. I havent heard of the particular allegations, but i will tell you, hes one of the finest people that i have met. Admiral jackson, dr. Jackson, hes a wonderful man.

And as far as experience is concerned, the Veterans Administration which is approximately 13 million people, is so big, you koucould run the biggest Hospital System in the world that is small
Trump or kim jong on . Were about to find out. They were making this the centerpiece other than tax the legacy. The legacy for 2018. His Nobel Peace Prize hes accepted it. You cant predict the president but the assumption would be a traditional response would be then walk away. Anything other than that, would that surprise you in. They have no now go through the south koreans and their own you would assume we have to steal our spine here . You would assume that. Find out who wants this summit more. Exactly. All right. You better get out of here. Thanks very much. Lets turn to the politics of impeachment. Believe it or not its become a hot topic with leaders in the Republican Party. Its not for what you think. Whether youre talk about elected leaders, party leaders, even President Trumps lawyers, they are warning that nancy pelosi is readying her caucus for a coup postnovember. If she wants to obstruct everything and impeach the president , i dont think america wants to see that. Her wh
Mr. Cohen sought reimbursement of those expenses and mr. Trump fully reimbursed mr. Cohen in 2017. The category of value would be 101,000 and 250,000, and the Interest Rate would be zero. Were going to explain all this in a moment. Remember, Michael Cohen paid a 130,000 settlement to the adult film star, stormy daniels, who claims she had an affair with donald trump. The president has denied those allegations. Joining me now, the senior director of the Campaign Legal center. He previously worked in the office of General Counsel for the federal election commission. We had you on yesterday. We were wondering if this disclosure was going to show up in this or this payment was going to show up in this disclosure. It did. What questions do you have now . Well, we were saying that the president s decision of whether to disclose this payment in this report put him in a really tough spot because in he did disclose it, it would raise the question of why he didnt disclose it

As he goes into it. However when you contrast it to what the president has said up to tonight. Here is how the administration has been describing its goal for the singapore talks.

The goal and the purpose of the conversations is to have denuclearization of the peninsula. The denuclearization of the korean peninsula. The president has laid out to what he wants to see as a commitment to denuclearization. I will be meeting with kim jongun in the coming weeks as we seek to denuclearize the area

The audio obtained by pro publica. This is not separation anxiety, this is separation. Real trauma. We will be joined by a pediatrician that wrote several letters calling for this to stop.
