As the impeachment showdown plays out, President Trump is in london for a highstakes nato summit preparing to meet with the queen and our allies, and tensions are running high over brexit and a possible trade war between the u. S. And france. Chief White House Correspondent jon karl is there london with more. Good morning, jon. Reporter good morning, robin. The president kicked off his meetings here in london with an impromptu freewheeling press conference and some harsh words aimed at president macron. This morning, the president turned what was supposed to be a quick photoop with the head of nato into a nearly hourlong press conference. Asked about recent comments by french president macron that nato is becoming brain dead, he hit back hard. Very, very nasty statement to essentially 28 including them, 28 countries. You just cant go around making statements like that about nato. Its very disrespectful. Reporter but later in a face to face meeting with macron, the president struck a more diplomatic tone. We have done a lot of good things together as partners. Our countries have been partners in many good ventures. Reporter in the past, President Trump has boasted of his warm relationship with macron and has had his own harsh words towards nato. Nato is obsolete, its old, its fat and sloppy. Reporter the Trump Administration is now threatening tariffs of up to 100 worth of french imports including wine, cheese and handbags. Theyre starting to tax other peoples products, so, therefore, were going to tax them. Reporter the new tariffs are retaliation against new french taxes targeting u. S. Tech Companies Like apple and google. Im not in love with those companies. I want to tax those companies. Theyre not going to be taxed by france. If anyone is going to take advantage of the American Companies its going to be us. Reporter as President Trump takes the world stage, the drive by House Democrats with impeachment is clearly on his mind. Does it cast a cloud . Well if it does, then the democrats have done great disservice to the country. Reporter for his part, macron was diplomatic, too. Regarding the threat of a trade war, the president referred to it as a minor dispute and predicted a rosy outcome. George. George. Jon, thanks very much. It is a critical day for impeachment on capitol hill. The House Intelligence Committee will release its report making the case against President Trump before sending it to the House Judiciary Committee before their first hearings tomorrow. Our senior Congressional Correspondent mary bruce tracking the latest on capitol hill. Good morning, mary. Reporter good morning. Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee this morning are putting the finishing touches on this report that is likely to be the basis for their impeachment case against the president. The public will get a look at it later today. We are told its roughly 175 pages and is likely to conclude that the president abused his power by pressuring ukraine to investigate his rivals to try and get an advantage in the 2020 election. It is also likely to outline evidence of obstruction which democrats have said is overwhelming, george. Mary, ahead of this weve seen the first republican prebuttal overnight also and it defends the president , holds the line with the president even though its at odds with much of the witness testimony. Reporter yeah, george, republicans are picking over this same evidence to try to defend the president. They have released their own report which is dismissing much of the witness testimony so far as hearsay and presumption. They argue that the president was acting out of valid concerns in ukraine and they note that theres no specific evidence that the president was trying to benefit himself in the 2020 election. Democratic chairman adam schiff though not surprisingly says the republicans are ignoring much of the evidence. He has said that the republican report is, quote, intended for an audience of one. That one person being the president. And mary, phase two begins tomorrow in the House Judiciary Committee. That first hearing could be fiery. Reporter it could be fiery but it is also expected to be a bit of a civics lesson on impeachment. The witnesses are all legal scholars. This could be quite feisty. This hearing and this committee including some of the president s fiercest defenders. They are ready for a fight here tomorrow. In fact, george, both sides are holding mock hearings here later today. Mary bruce, thanks very much. Michael. All right, thank you, george. We have the latest on jimmy carter. The 95yearold former president is back in the hospital this morning to treat an infection just days after a separate procedure on his brain. Steve osunsami is outside the hospital in americus, georgia. Good morning, steve. Reporter good morning to you, michael. President carter is of course 95. We should point out that hes being treated at his local hospital, the hospital closest to his home. For more serious issues and Serious Health issues, hes usually treated at Emory University hospital in atlanta. About three hours to the north of here. In a statement his spokesperson says that he was admitted here this past weekend to treat a uti. They say, quote, hes feeling better and looks forward to returning home soon. Last week doctors at emory in atlanta sent him home to enjoy thanksgiving dinner after a risky surgery to reduce pressure from blood that built up over his brain after a number of recent falls at his home. After one of those falls that he suffered he actually suffered a black eye, but continued true to form to nashville where he then helped build houses for habitat for humanity. Everyone here, of course, is looking forward to his speedy recovery. Robin. As are we, steve, thank you. Now to new orleans and the search for the gunman who wounded ten people on a crowded street in the french quarter. Police are investigating and theres dramatic new Surveillance Video that youre seeing showing the moment the shooting breaks out. Victor oquendo is there in new orleans with more. Good morning, victor. Reporter good morning, robin. Police have been poring over that Surveillance Video and they now believe the people responsible are from louisiana but somewhere outside new orleans and this all started with some kind of feud. Take a look at that video. It looks like someone pulled out a gun and started firing. Ten victims total. Five men, five women. The youngest victim just 16 years old. All but one right now in stable condition. This happened hours after a big football game. A weapon was recovered from the scene. So far no arrest. They continue asking the public to come forward with information. Michael . Thank you so much for that. Now to the fallout from that bombshell new interview with Prince Andrews accuser, Virginia Roberts giuffre, detailing the night she says they met and what she was directed to do. James longman is at Buckingham Palace with the reaction this morning. Good morning, james. Reporter yeah, good morning, michael. This is a scandal that will not go away for Prince Andrew. He is once again frontpage news here. Virginia Roberts Giuffre has spoken before but this is her first appearance on uk tv and shes making a direct appeal to the british public. This morning, all eyes on Buckingham Palace. Virginia Roberts Giuffre whos claimed in court papers she was directed by Jeffrey Epstein to have sex with Prince Andrew several times, including twice while she was under age, asking the british people to hold the royal family to a higher standard. I implore the citizens in the uk to stand up beside me to help me fight this fight, to not accept this as being okay. This is not some sordid sex story. This is a story of being trafficked. This is a story of abuse. And this is a story of your guys royalty. Reporter giuffre describing to the bbc the night she says she first met the prince. Andrew maintains he doesnt know her. He is the most hideous dancer ive ever seen in my life. I mean, it was horrible and this guy was sweating all over me. Theres a slight problem with the sweating because i have a peculiar medical condition which is that i dont sweat or i didnt sweat at the time. Reporter giuffre says she was directed to have sex with Prince Andrew by ghislaine maxwell, epsteins former girlfriend, whom she accused of in Court Filings of grooming her to be a teenage sex slave. Maxwell previously denied the allegations and has not been charged with any crime. That made me sick. I just didnt expect it from royalty. I didnt expect it from someone that people look up to and admire, you know, in the royal family. It was a really scary time in my life. I had just been abused by a member of a royal family. I couldnt comprehend how in the highest levels of the government and powerful people were allowing this to happen, not only allowing it to happen but participating in it. Reporter giuffre also blasting andrews suggestion that this nowinfamous photo of the two of them which she says was taken by epstein was faked. The people on the inside are going to keep coming up with these ridiculous excuses. He knows what happened. I know what happened and theres only one of us telling the truth and i know thats me. Reporter now, Prince Andrew has already been forced to step back from his royal duties after his own interview was so badly received. This appearance from miss roberts will not help him return any time soon. Michael. Thank you so much, james. George.

Alex perez is in chicago with the latest. Reporter this morning, chicagos top cop out of a job fired just days after an Inspector General report found what mayor Lori Lightfoot calls a series of ethical lapses. Im announcing that i terminated Eddie Johnsons employment as superintendent of the Chicago Police department for cause effective immediately. Reporter lightfoot says the new report which included Video Evidence found johnson lied after an incident in october when officers found him in a parked Police Vehicle asleep at the wheel. He intentionally misled the people of chicago and he intentionally misled me. Reporter at the time, during a press conference, johnson claimed he had not taken his Blood Pressure medication. Your body kind of gives you a warning with the high Blood Pressure thing that you may pass out. So i pulled over, stopped, and i just rested myself until that feeling passed. Reporter but on monday after reviewing his claims, the citys mayor decided to expedite his dismissal. This morning, the Chicago Tribune reporting that the Surveillance Footage shows him drinking, quote, for a few hours prior to the incident with a woman who is not his wife. The mayor declined to be more specific about the videotaped evidence hinting it could be hurtful to johnsons family. We require a leader whose actions reflect the virtues of integrity, honor, and legitimacy, the touchstones of what it takes to have the privilege of being a Chicago Police officer. Reporter johnson in the spotlight earlier this year during the Jussie Smollett case, accusing the actor of lying to his officers. Chicagos Violent Crime rate dropped under johnson. Last month with the mayor by his side he unexpectedly announced he was retiring. The mayor now regretting that appearance.
