Office building. it houses half of the senate and their staffs. and also the occasional taxidermy. the moose was trucked into the heart building last year to new hampshire senators office. as was this friendly looking bear. see? i think hes waving. the poor staffers crammed them into the elevators and parked them in the waiting room for an event with their constituents. tada! understandably, they turned a lot of heads its usually people in suits going about their business, and also stuffed bears...

To people who live in london and understandably so. they are -- they have been under attack. having said that, does it play in many ways when people dont go to the businesses who are in those neighborhoods, or the publicity gets out there, just the fact that someone was able to take a car or a van or whatever they have and drive it into a crowd of people and run into that crowd with a knife, again, very unsophisticated. not like putting together a bomb. does that play into whether its isis or an...

What was going on there? >> there was a lot of chaos here. and there was a lot of people still streaming out away from the london bridge location. the police were telling them to move as fast as possible. many had their hands on their heads to show the police that they werent assailants. because there were so many people out here to begin with and we learned later apparently the police took out the attackers in about eight minutes after they started their rampage. thats pretty remarkable. but of...

Highest priority. protection never rests. it is a serious deal at the white house understandably. >> understandably so, and it was interesting to see, obviously the condemnation from every corner was swift and strong, but the white house especially, president trump said that his kids were disturbed, and you do forget sometimes that it happened with the clintons and chelsea, and the obamas and their daughters, but this is a tool, these images are most unsettling, you know, for the presidents fami...

Impossible position. understandably, he was going to get criticized for making those decision. but i think he served this country ably. >> more voters believe trump fired him to disrupt the russia inquiry. and a new fox news poll shows 60% of voters saying comey was fired because of his investigations were harming the presidency. thought of course these polls are not fax. theyre perception. but they do suggest most people now think donald trump fired jim comey for an inappropriate, and yes, ther...

Welcome back. the critics of former fbi director jim comey have long argued he inserted himself into politics. that a more modest fbi director would never have faced questions in the first place about an election comey effect. but president trumps treatment of comey, his public attacks, private pressure, abrupt firing, and now reports of maligning comey as a quote, nutjob in a meeting with the russian, all of that behavior has some talking about a new comey effect and one that is bad for trump. ...

Resentful and understandably so that this is spilling over and affectingly them. it signals both of those things. >> leland: it was a side note and make sure the stuff i am telling you does not leak out. as this is happening. we are learning more about the bomber and the network that the manchester police have talked about. this coming in from the libyan authorities if you can call anybody in libya an opportunity. and evidently, the brother of the bomber and a family member was arrested in libya...

In riyadh, saudi arabia by the president. nothing official from the president or his entourage tonight. for this early morning now. in jerusalem, where the president is, he was with israeli prime minister benjamin and yahoo. at an event last evening. certainly, the middle of the night there. nothing from the president at this hour. we were expecting this news conference which has been slightly delayed and understandably so, we believe they will give us this confirmation that they are now under t...
