It takes place with protesters marching, allies seeking reassurance, north korea testing missiles, china looking to fill the vacuum and so much more including now the breaking news. Cnn has learned that even with all the attention, the reporting, the hearings, the fbi probe, intelligence officials are concerned that russian has accelerated its spying given the Intelligence Community which the president slighted today even more to do.

Nuclear weapons. Immediately going to our pentagon correspondent barbara starr. Barbara, this would be a major, major breakthrough in north Koreas Nuclear capability if they had miniaturized these Nuclear Bombs so they could fit on these Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles . Reporter that is absolutely right, wolf. The Washington Post reporting a short time ago, and let me quote from them north korea has successfully produce add miniaturized Nuclear Warhead that can fit inside its missiles. So why is this so important . Because this is one of the key steps that north koreas been trying to achieve and the u. S. Has been trying to determine if theyve made it.

His son, marine lieutenant robert kelly, was killed in action in afghanistan in 2010. It was a devastating loss for him and his wife karen. Of a parents loss of a child, shakespeare once wrote, grief feels the room up, lies in his bed, walks up and down with me, unquote. And i know its clear to all who know john kelly and karen kelly that a robert is a constant presence in their lives, john kerry has been reluctant to speak publicly about the very personal and distressing loss i had suffered, but given the political fights about President Trumps false charge that president obama never called the familys of the fallen, and then later in the week, the charge by a democratic congresswoman that trump himself was insensitive when he called a grieving widow earlier this week, kelly obviously felt he needed to explain his behind the scenes conversations with President Trump. Lending advice to the president that someone who knew best how those families were feeling from both ends of that phone
