We begin with the first 100 days, day 58 to be exact. Another working weekend for President Trump at his florida home. He and the first lady will be celebrating their sons 11th birthday. This as the administration confronts over renewed claims that president Obama Wiretapped trump tower. A congressional source says that initial reading of documents shows nothingor substantiate the allegation meanwhile new details emerge about how long it took agents to confront an intruder last friday night. The secret service says the man was on the ground for nearly 20 minutes, even hiding behind a white house pillar before being stopped. Also new today, the just continues department filing a notice of appeal to challenge a maryland judges decision blocking President Trumps revised travel ban. And as the white house continues to sell the Health Care Bill, they will vote on thursday. And here is Peter Alexander with detail on the president s evolving wiretapping claim and his meeting with germanys Angela Merkel. Reporter confronted by a european reporter for his wiretap allegation against president obama, a defiant President Trump taking a new shot at his predecessor. As far as wiretapping, i guess by this past administration, at least we have something in common perhaps. Reporter a swipe at the National Security agency under mr. Obama that monitored german chancellors Angela Merkels cellphone. The look on merkels face speaking volumes. From the man behind the art of the deal, a strategic deflection, not backing down on his initial claim. But that didnt stop a spokesperson from this allegation thursday. There is no american fingerprints on this. Reporter reading from a fox news segment claiming British Intelligence helped mr. Obama. President unfazed. I didnt make an opinion on it. That was a statement made by a very talented lawyer on fox. And so you shouldnt be talking to me, you should bealking to fox. Reporter a fox newsnchor shooting down the defense. Fox news knows of no evidence of any kind that the now president of the United States was surveilled at anytime in any way, full stop. Reporter even British Intelligence issued a rare rebuke disanythinging the comment as ridiculous and the Prime Ministers Office says white house aides assured them the allegations would not be repeated. As a Real Estate Developer and president ial git, donald trump learned you can say controversial things and then move on. Hes learning now as president , its a love tougher to do. Reporter and no handshake in the oval office. That was Peter Alexander rorgt. Joining me now, Jonathan Allen and daniel lippman. Thanks for being here. Daniel, President Trump still seems defiant on the wiretap claims that his campaign was spied on. Can we gauge where it stands with respect to the investigation now . I think its been clearly shot down by republicans and even next monday you will see fbi director jim comey test h. Te testify in congress aenld be under pressure by republicans and democrats to further refute it in a public forum. And so there is no evidence behind this and its really embarrassing President Trump if he just keeps talking about something that is clearly not true. Jonathan, here is intel chair regarding the wiretap claims. We dont have any evidence that took place. I dont think there was an actual tap of trump tower. So jonathan, how can there be such different wire tan, those words were in quotes. Wiretapping is pretty Old Fashioned stuff. But that covers surveillance and many other things. I think that you will find very interesting items coming to the forefront over the next two weeks. Jonathan, how can there be such different takes . Whyont the president just let this go . Is there any angle that hes hanging on to he . Its possible that we were spying on other people who entered trump tower, met with Trump Officials and picked up some of those Trump Officials on bugs or other forms of surveillance that was targeted at others, perhaps russian nationals. And so there is some reconcile ability there. But the idea that president obama ordered the fbi to wiretap trump tower during the campaign has been thoroughly debunked by everyone who has access to intelligence not named President Trump. And daniel, you mentioned that on march 20th, james comey will testify before a House Committee among others. Is there any sense that these issues will actually be resolved on that day . I think President Trump will keep repeating this until he gets tired of it. What i think is going to be interesting next monday is democrats will be asking jim comey for his opinion on something that Reince Priebus did which is call up comey and other fbi officials to dispute the russian intelligence investigation story. And that goes against policies in the white house where you have to get a lawyers approval because you dont want the white house interfering with ongoing fbi investigations. That is something that my colleague wrote about yesterday which will be a hot topic monday, too. Jonathan, the awkward relationship between Angela Merkel and donald trump highlighted by that moment where it appeared he refused to shake hands. What is that about . About. I dont know. It looked like junior high school, you know, when you get paired with somebody else in the gym class to dance and you dont want anything to do with them. I thought it was undiplomatic of the president. He obviously is showing his disdain for chancellor merkel and i think the look on her face throughout that brief press conference and the double take she did when he made the joke about surveillance said it all. Its interesting that were at a point now where the german chancellor is more popular with a large segment of the American Public than the president is. A little awkward needless to say. Dan daniel, another big headline is the trump budget cuts. Here is Mick Mulvaney on some of the possible cuts. Take a listen. After School Programs generally. Supposed to be education al programs. Theyre supposed to help kids who dont get fed at home get fed so they do better this school. Guess what . There is no demonstrable evidence theyre actually doing that. From a pure political perspecti perspective, how does that play for republicans . Its very hard for republicans to run ads saying we cut the School Lunch Program and breakfast feeding of poor kids and democrats will be sure to use that in commercials next year when they say President Trump ran on making America Great again. Does that include cutting a minor part of the budget to pay for kids food who cant afford it. And so that is just not a Winning Strategy and its not going to play well on capitol hill where are these budget cuts will largely be shot down. And i want to continue about the budg cuts because jonathan, you said that this bill isot doa in your latest column and whether what has been proposed will make it to the finished product. Will meals on wheels and the after school meals go away in the end. What do you think . I think that meals on wheels has gotten a lot of attention and will probably survive and get some federal funding. But the point here is that there are budget caps and the Defense Department is getting a 54 billion increase. That has to come out of somewhere. Under the trump budget, it comes out of the state department, agriculture department, School Lunch Programs, it will come out of the epa. And there will be choices that congress has to make. But basically the president sets the tone and the direction with this budget and Everything Congress does will be matched up against it. And as a result, you will see these priority choices. As daniel was saying, there will be ads about taking lunch away from kids, you add in the Health Care Bill, stripping 880 billion in medicaid funding. Items basical its basically an assault on the poor and disabled and kids who need free food at school in favor of tax cut for the very wealthiest and those are very easy adds to cut. Jonathan, daniel, great to have you here this morning. Thanks so much. Well, new this morning, secretary of state Rex Tillerson in china with a new critical message about north korea. Tillerson met with top diplomats in china amid escalating essentials with north korea. Lets go now to janice in beijing. How is this visit going so far . Reporter the visit is cordial but prickly especially after the tweet last night by President Trump where he said that north korea had been behaving very badly, that they had been playing the United States for years and that china had done little to help. The secretary of state was asked about at tweet, asked whether he knew that it wasng to proceed his arrival. In the statement thats made after the meetings, he reiterated the position, avoided the question, and simply said that years of diplomacy have yielded little with north korea. Heres what he had to say. I think we share a common view and a sense that tensions on the peninsula are quite high right now. And that things have reached a rather dangerous level. Weve done everything we can to prevent any type of conflict from breaking out. Reporter chinas position is that it is doing what it can. It joined u. N. Sanctions and recently banned coal imports from north korea which are a key source of revenue for the regime. They say anything drastic would cause chaos at chinas borders and potentially lead to war in the region. So china continues to push diplomacy. But yesterday mr. Tillerson made the strongest indication yet that the u. S. May consider a preemptive strike against north korea. Now, the other issue in these talks is chinas opposition to the u. S. Missile Defense System that is being deployed in south korea and possibly expanded to japan. They see this as the creation of a Security Alliance in asia that is aligned against xhochina. So this is a major stumbling block at a time when kim jongun is threatening a missile capable of reaching the United States and there is also concern of another nuclear test in the works. So these are very crucial moves that are being made. Mr. Tillerson will meet tomorrow with chinas president xi jinping who is expected to meet President Trump next month. And if you would, how the the american journalist bob woodruff asked the question about trumps tweets. How did that play in the room . Reporter there was a degree of silence. Mr. Tillerson listened to the questions, ltened to the translation of the questions and simply avoided the part where he wa asked to address the tweet by mr. Trump. There were expected to be so many elephants in the room to begin with with the expectation that the u. S. Was going to tell china its not doing enough, that it needs to use its leverage with the north. Also this issue of Missile Defense as being a major hurdle to clear. So the fact that the tweet was raised was not something that mr. Tillerson was willing to bite on. Janice mackey frayer, thanks very much for that report live from beijing. Meals on wheels is just one of the programs facing cuts. What that really means for those in need. Just like the people who own them, every business is different.

President trump is spending another weekend at his 234flori home. Hes facing mounting scrutiny over his meeting with Angela Merkel. Kelly odonnell is in West Palm Beach not too far from maralago. Between the awkward body language and the comment about wiretapping, is there a sense for what all this means for the future of this relationship . Reporter well, its one of the most important relationships between the u. S. And europe because Angela Merkel has been the chancellor for so long and is seen by many as one of the strongest figures on the global stage. So this did not appear to be the easiest start, although there were a few lighter moments. It was notable how their interactions were nothing like what we saw when the president has met other world leaders. So there is work to be done there. We are in florida here today. The president is at his maralago home. The Vice President will spend part of the day in jacksonville. He will be talking to Business Leaders working on the obamacare overhaul. And when we saw the International Press conference, it shinled a light on this relationship. And its there that the president stuck with his surveillance claims. As you know, they were first made on twitter a couple weeks ago and the president was asked by a german reporter if he ever regrets his tweets. The president said very seldom. Air force one back at palm beach airport. The fifth weekend spent here since President Trump took office. Joined by first lady melania, her parents and baron truron 2r w trump who turns 11 monday. Icy body language was evident friday as the president met with Angela Merkel. Tension continued at a joint press conference where merkel delivered a subtle dig. There are in the period leading up to this, its much, much better to talk one another and not about one be another. Reporter questioned about the president s wiretapping allegations, his disputed claim that barack obama had surveillance on trump tower, and that British Intelligence helped. Mr. Trump deflected and blamed a media source. Hat was a statement made by very talented lawyer on fox. Anso you shouldnt be talking to me, you should be talking to fox. Reporter fox news then distanced itself. Fox news knows of no evidence of any kind that the now president of the United States was surveilled at anytime in any way, full stop. Reporter a rare public scolding from the British Intelligence service that called the allegations nonsense. White House Press Secretary sean spicer offering no apology telling reporters i dont think we regret anything. President trump dredged up awkward diplomatic history that the Obama Administration had listened in on merkels phone calls. The president tried humor. At least we have something in common perhaps. Reporter from foreign to domestic double takes, with the Gop Health Care bill in trouble, the president met with House Republicans and claimed the Obamacare Repeal is on track. Its all coming together. Reporter turning to the president s personal security, in this brooklyn neighborhood, a secret Service Agents encrypted laptop which included trump tower floor plans was stolen from a parked car. And at the white house, Law Enforcement now says last weeks fence jumping intruder spent nearly 20 minutes roaming the grounds before skreet secret se responded. The length of time that this intruder was able to be on the white house, hiding behind a pillar and going up to the door, that scares reporter and while the president s Top Republican allies and democrats on capitol hill say that they dont see any evidence that there was anything to back up the president s claim, they had requested information from the department of justice that has now been sent over and so far with that additional background information, government sources say there is still no proof, no evidence to back up the president s claims. Kelly, gralt to hkelly, grea here. In france, the airport remains evacuated after police shot the and killed a man who tried to grab a soldiers weapon. Kyrgios seir simmons joining me paris. What happened there today . Reporter dramatic day here. Again, two incidents being investigated, potentially terrorism related according to a french judicial source speaking to nbc news. One of them, i think you can see live pictures now of the airport still evacuated. Thousands of passengers removed from that terminal after a man grabbed a gun from a soldier. There were then unconfirmed reports of a hostage taking. Finally that man was shot dead. There are reports including from the Reuters News Agency that this man was on a terror watch list, that he was known to French Police and intelligence agencies. Another in
