Page 11 - Paper Statement News Today

Administration loath, in most cases, most times, to say the words meddling in the u.s. election. >> the president himself, obviously. >> and others. even this morning when these sanctions were announced on a briefing with senior members of the administration, they still said this is partly about russias continued interference in western democracies. they finally put out a paper statement that said interference in the 2016 election but its like pulling teeth. and critics say lets see a broader, m...

White house declared in a paper statement, that isis is "almost completely destroyed." we have made tremendous progress against isis, particularly in syria but also in parts of iraq. a lot of that is due to the presidents change in the rules of engagement and a change of strategy. he deserves credit for that, full stop. but it is absurd at this point to say that the jihadist threat has been diminished, that isis is running away. it sounds like the president is on the verge of repeating the mista...

Votes, and there was even testimony about how hackers may try and compromise a media website to post fake results. one of the key moments came when the ranking democrat on the committee, senator dianne feinstein pressed the former secretary of homeland security jay johnson about the last administrations decision to go public with russias election interference but only to do it with a paper statement in october of 2016 because to this day, we still dont know which 21 states were targeted and prob...

To china where the new york times reported they were developing a censorship app. so this is what ill say as a report. we welcome new information. facebook putting out this statement is better than nothing. but it is only a tiny bit better than nothing. it is a paper statement and this, by the way, is a company that demands all of our personal data, all of our information. all of our privacy and it said that because that is good for transparency, we should all live with it. this is a company tha...

The question whether theyre act on legislation, thats unlikely. it would have to be signed by the president. he wants to get rid of the special counsel, why would he engage on that? >> it strikes me that orrin hatch and bob corker and trey gowdy yesterday and heard from jeff flake on this and whats the one thing they all have on common, theyre retiring. theyre leaving. yes, you mentioned john cornyn and paul ryan put out a paper statement. the strongest language is from those leaving. im curious...

Used in the attack. russia has said it would not cooperate with the uk inquiry at this point. ken dilanian, are we seeing another example of putins russia at work? >> it sure looks that way, craig. i found the presidents reaction a bit puzzling. this attack happened more than a week ago. britain is our closest ally. so whatever they know about it, presumably the cia knows as well. and this is the first public statement donald trump has made about it. also hasnt said a word about an attack on a u...

But now its more along the lines of well we can talk. we can talk about what were going to do before we start to negotiate. you can kind of see why this announcement from the white house may have come as a surprise from tillerson. there is a time difference. he is in africa. we know he was up and talking to the president before the announcement. we know that he talked to the japanese prime minister. but tillerson was still characteristically silent during this. he didnt make a statement an hour ...

>> dana: fox news alert. we have learned president trump has been briefed on the bob mueller investigation, including three russian entities and 13 russians for meddling in the 2016 election. doug, what is the white house reaction to the indictment? >> reporter: weve heard nothing from the white house today as of yet. we do expect to hear something. theyve indicated they will have a paper statement perhaps later in the afternoon. there may be a chance we hear from the president. he is expected t...

Warning about cruz saying he would be a professional school shooter. the fbi requested an in-person interview. cnn has reached out to the fbi for comment. what we know now is hell appear in court, not this morning, but likely in the afternoon session, again, facing 17 counts of premeditated murder. alisyn? >> ill take it, dave. thank you very much. we do have breaking news from the white house. president trump issuing a proclamation, while we wait to see if he will actually address the nation. t...

Right today. i wish we heard from him yesterday. one of the lessons of past experiences of presidents is say something sooner than later. may not be what you say, but be heard from earlier in this context and be heard personally. not enough to issue a paper statement or do a tweet or a facebook posting. better to hear the comfort -- the country needs to be comforted in moments like this whether its a natural disaster or shooting like this. the president and his presence on camera in front of the...
