5 00 a. M. In the east. A sobering reality check for the Trump Administration courtesy of north korea. State media declaring pyongyang will not be pushed into a corner on abandoning the nukes while threatening to cancel the summit with President Trump in singapore next month. The kim regime suspending talks with south korea that were scheduled for today. The reason well, u. S. south korea drills already scheduled that north korea considers provocative. There was such goodwill and such a Rapid Improvement of relations and developments on the Korean Peninsula and with the United States and then this. This feels like the north korea of several months ago. Absolutely. And we just heard a statement from the south korean president s office, trying to call this growing pains. The fact that north korea put out overnight here in asia a series of pretty strongly worded statements saying that the u. S. Has to think twice if it wants to have a summit with north korea while conducting these joint military exercises. Right now taking aim at the White House National security adviser john bolton who a top north korean diplomat described as repugnant because he compared north korea as a Nuclear Armed state with libya in the early stages of its Nuclear Weapons development when it agreed to disarm its weapons with the u. S. And essentially saying that north korea will not be backed into a corner. It will not be bought off with promises of Economic Development in exchange for nuclear disarmament. Very hard to tell whether or not this is just a bargaining tactic but in the short term north korea canceled high level talks that were scheduled with south korea along the demilitarized today and they have called into question the summit with the u. S. After just yesterday, christine, inviting south korean journalists to attend a ceremony scheduled for next week for what is supposed to be the dismantling of north koreas main Nuclear Testing site. Christine . Ivan watson, thank you so much for that. Lets go live to washington and bring in digital director zach wolff. Good to see you, sir. Heres the white house statement on all of these developments. We are aware of the south korean media reports and well continue to coordinate closely. What is missing here is anything from the president , not a tweet, from a statement. What do you make of the white house reaction or lack thereof . It was always going to be very difficult to make these talks happen. And they still could, by the way. But whats interesting is that President Trump has wrapped so much into this already. Essentially declaring victory in the idea that the talks were simply scheduled when he withdrew from the Iran Nuclear Agreement he pointed to what he was going to be able to accomplish with north korea as an example of how he was so much better than president obama. And i think that this hiccup it could be a hiccup or something larger, but it just speaks to how difficult International Relations and diplomacy can be. Something hes learning. You heard from ivan watson, the South Koreans are saying this is growing pains, its not a huge setback. Its something that can be overcome. Meanwhile, you have some who are saying that the president in his trade talks with china may be giving concessions to china in part because he needs chinas help with preparing for the north korea summit and with reining in north Korean Nuclear ambitions. It was interesting the top economic adviser larry kudlow sat down with axios yesterday and this is how he described whats going on right now. I think is theres a little bit of a bromance between President Trump and president for life xi. Where this leads i dont know. It might lead to a trade deal which would make me very happy. Is it personal relationships between trump and World Leaders that will get a trade deal done . Is that really you think how the administration is viewing this . Yeah, i think thats how President Trump, you know, feels that these things should be done. That he is sort of the figure head here and he should be making these deals. But a word of caution. Remember, he and xi had, you know, very nice things to say about each other. Remember, they had that lovely piece of chocolate cake, you know, some time a beautiful, a beautiful piece of chocolate cake. While the bombs rain down. That was sort of the first time that he and xi were saying nice things about each other and north korea was in the was sub rosa. Things did not work out right then. But maybe it was part of building a larger relationship. Well have to see. Ask emanuel macron how well the bromance has worked out. How to you explain if youre marco rubio and youre tweeting about zte and youre talking on the senate floor about it, you dont bring it up to the president . Thats you know, kind of remarkable. He goes and has lunch they dont talk about all of the criticism that the republican senators have levied against him for criticizing john mccain. They dont talk about zte and the criticism for, you know, for giving away too much to the chinese. You have to wonder if the republican senators are getting to do any talking in these meetings. You know, trump is clearly the leader of the party. But theres a lot of frustration about him that we hear about outside of these meetings. Its just nobody seems to be talking to him in person. Somebody said of rubio making a compelling point, if youre going to trade you know concessions for zte to protect American Farmers who shouldnt have been put in a position to need protection in the first place, you know, i mean, that the point you bring up when youre sitting with the president of the United States. All right. Zach wolff, we need your answer, laurel or yanny. Stand by. But right now, the Trump Administration is exploring using the military bases to keep the children caught crossing the board illegally. A Defense Department official says staffers from health and Human Services are informally looking at three states three sites in texas and another in arkansas. Earlier tuesday, Homeland Security secretary Kirstjen Nielsen defended policies that would separate children from their parents. Your agency will be separating children from their parents and no. What well be doing is prosecuting parents who have broken the law just as we do every day in the United States of america. I could appreciate that. But if that marnt has a 4yearold child what do you plan on doing with that child . The child under law goes to hhs for care and custody. They will be separated by their parents. Families had been held together in family detention facilities. Secretary nielsen did agree with senators that more needs to be done to protect children who come to the u. S. Illegally. Senate Intelligence Committee votes this morning on a closed session on gina haspels nomination for cia director and she is expected to be approved now that several Democratic Senators announced they will back here, including Heidi Heitkamp and floridas bill nelson. They are both up for reelection. A final confirmation vote on the senate floor could take place by tomorrow. Deadly storms pummeling the north east.

For more on whats in store for the rest of the week, here is our meteorologist. Yes, the Severe Weather concerns it was in place yesterday and produced upwards of 300 plus Severe Weather reports. About 70 concentrated across the northeast. I can tell you, the conditions as far as the Severe Weather quieted down a little bit. But the wet weather not the case here. We have a stationary frontal boundary pitching a tent, hanging out here over the next couple of days and the conditions producing a lot of rainfall across the region. From baltimore, north of leesburg, how about rainfall amounts in two to four inches. Locally heavy amounts of six or more inches have fallen in a 12 hour period. Showers this morning beginning to taper off. The coolest time of the day is right now, so very little as far as instability to go around. But you fire up in the afternoon, expect thunderstorms once again to blossom. Baltimore, washington, some of the areas of concern here. Of course to the south, some tropical moisture being fed up northbound as well. We have this a lot of rainfall to go around over the next couple of days. Washington, baltimore, philly could see an additional concern here for flooding. Rainfall amounts on top of what is falling as much as six more inches. Thank you. The u. S.

I asked my colleagues here in the Security Council who among us would accept this type of activity on your border . No one would. No country in this chamber would act with more restraint than israel has. U. N. Ambassador nikki haley defending israel after the military killed 60 palestinians at the border with gaza. Israel and the United States now facing harsh global condemnation raising the question is there anything israel can be doing differently along the border . Lets go live to gaza and bring in ian lee. Good morning. Well, good morning, dave. Gaza is taking stock of the past seven weeks of protests today. Over a hundred people were killed by Israeli Soldiers. And what was largely peaceful protests. Yes, there were rocks and molotov cocktails and ieds, but no mortars or rockets and no Israeli Soldiers were killed or injured. And thats why they are being criticized for using live ammunition. Even key allies are criticizing israel, including france and the United Kingdom. As far as what can israel do further, well, they have said that they would like to see israel show further restraint when it comes to dealing with the protests and more nonlethal use of force like tear gas and rubber bullets. Israel says it will continue to defend its border and thats the red line. But for the gazans, when you look at the past seven weeks they have a number of achievements. One is that they brought the International Communitys attention once again on to gaza and the plight here. The other as we have seen is the United States and israel isolated when it comes to the situation here. But the one thing that they would like to see which is unlikely to change is the easing of the blockade on gaza. Dave . All right. 12 17 in gaza, thanks.

Lindsey czarniak has more. We got exactly what we expected out of the game. Lebron james after that game 1 loss taking over from the start of game 2, but the problem was his supporting cast is not the same as in years past and the celtics are really, really good. When i say he took over, lebron basically played boston solo for the First Quarter. He scored 21 points. A First Quarter playoff high for james. There was a scary moment in the Second Quarter and he was forced to go the locker room after taking a jayson tatum shoulder elbow to his jaw. He would return though. Six boston players are scoring in double figures in the game. 90 at home in the playoffs and now they go to cleveland for game 3, saturday.
