official that was the first time they knew about it. but, of course, senator sessions is more than simply a senator who is supportive of this president. of this campaign. he was one of the earliest senators, the earliest senator on board. he was part of the fabric of this campaign. really from most all of 2016. several of his staff members went on to work for the president in the campaign. so, wolf, there is no closer person or no clos closer cabinet member than jeff sessions to this white house. we're not told if the president will address this here. he is in newport news, virginia. he's here to talk about his military budget. how he plans to increase the military budget by some $54 million. that's still his message today. but i can tell you it is being overshadowed somewhat by another connection to russia here. so we will hear from the president in about an hour or so time when he talks about his original message. we'll see if he addresses it.
