The Severe Weather threat does push primarily to the east as we go through monday, monday afternoon and evening. You said to interviewers and writers you thought it would be easier, why .

Lets go places. Captioning funded by cbs welcome to cbs this morning. Were in the historic east room of the white house. It has served as a backdrop for many of the most important president ial moments over the last two centuries. It really is incredible to be here this morning, isnt it . It really is an honor and we should tell you that the long hallway leading into the room which we see behind us, it is called the cross hall. Of course, its become a very familiar site for announcements, celebrations, and swearingins. President trump walked dow nominee Supreme Court justice kneel gorsuch. President obama walked down the cross hall to announce the death of Osama Bin Laden. We receive many historic moments. Its just kind of cool knowing the people who have walked down there. As charlie mentioned, there are 132 rooms. Were in the east room. The cross hall cuts to far side connecting to east room and the state dining room. This morning well bring you intimate looks to a part of the mansion where every president has lived since the 1800s. Were lucky enough to have John Dickerson with us throughout the morning. He talked with the President Trump about his 100 days in office and the biggest plans ahead. Congress agreed to a bipartisan agreement. It will fund the through september. The domestic spending deal comes amid new threats from north korea. Overnight the country warned it will carry out a nuclear test at any time and at any location. Margaret brennan is outside the white house down on the north lawn with the escalating tensions. Margaret, good morning. Good morning. Well, north korea said it will continue its Nuclear Weapons program in defiance of the Trump Administrations warning. Kim jongun carried out a ballistics missile test hours after the Trump Administration drew a hard line. We cannot let whats been going phenomenononfor a long period of years continue. President trump rarely minces words when speaking of enemies, but instead he expressed empathy for kim jongun whose Nuclear Policy remain as big challenge. What do you make of kim jongun . I really have no comment on him. A lot of people are asking is he insane. I have no idea. Ill say this. He was 26 or 27 when he took over for his father or when his father died. Obviously hes a really smart cookie. To build pressure, a Nuclear Powered u. S. Navy carrier now sits within striking distance of north korea. President trumps strategy appears to sit on public flattery and china to control king jongun. I would not be happy. If he does a nuclear test, i will not be happy. I can tell you also, i dont believe the president of china who is a very respected man will be happy either. Not happy meaning military action . I dont know. Well see. The president decided to put aside tradied with china. No. I think more important than trade. Massive warfare with potentially millions of people being killed, that, as we would say, trumps trade. This weekend President Trump also invited the philippines president due dare tay. Hes signed off on the extraditions of his own and praguing about shooting some himself. Norah . That has created some troefrms thacontroversy. Thank you. The president told thousands of supporters in harrisburg, pennsylvania, that he will keep that promise and many others. Major garrett is outside the west wing of the white house. Major, good morning. Good morning. Whatever president sames and it varies from time to time, the last week he had his White House Team frantically pushing obamacare repeal. This morning there is one of those as a new tv ad touting 100 days of accomplish mntss. Ill tell you who doesnt cove preexists conditioning. Obamacare. You know why . Its dead. President trump announced president obamas signature law deceased but said that law would be included in his own health care overhaul. Preexisting conditions are in the bill and i mandated it. I said it has to be. The latest version of the house bill to repeal on carry does not guarantee coverage from preexisting conditions. It specifically allows states to opt out of that mandate. He announced another mandate may be coming. This has evolved over three or four weeks. We really have a good b dont worry about this 100day thing. The president spent his 100 day rally in pennsylvania and as a custom teed off on the media. Theyre gathered together for white house Correspondents Dinner without the president. President s traditionally attend the annual function and tolerate a bit of roasting but President Trump declined. I think hes in pennsylvania because he cant take a joke. Theres no place id rather be than right here in pennsylvania to celebrate. Supporters were not concerned about his few accomplishments in his first 100 days. He stands up for what he believes and follows through. I mean its only 100 days. I mean rome wasnt built in a day. The president also said another irs ought it on latest tax reforms will force those to be kept under lock and key. They will block all attempts until the tax rurns are publicly released. Thanks, major. We now have more of John Dickersons conversation with president obama on face the nation, the president , what he has learned on his first 100 days on the job. Give me another thing that youve learned that youre going to adapt and change. I think things generally go slower than youd like them to go. Why . The system, its a very, very, bureaucratic system. I think the rules in congress and in particular the rules are unbelievably archaic and slow moving and in many cases unfair. In many cases youre forced to make deals that are not the deal youd make. Youd make a much digit kind of a deal. Youre forced into situations that you hate to be John Dickerson joins us now at the table. Good morning. Good morning, gayle. Its interesting to hear him say hes had tougher jobs. Did he elaborate on what that is . He said he didnt realize how tough the job would be and that he thought it would be easier, so i think he was balancing out his remarks on that, but he clearly is frustrated by the pace of authentics in the senate. Hes not the first president to be frustrated by the pace of things. The founders made it that way. Those deals hes talking abouter are compromise the system forces you into, but Woodrow Wilson said he can be as big of a man as he wants to be. This is a president ial the biggest takeaway for for u you . The president wants to move faster. John, thank you. I know youll return to this broadcast at the white house. Republicans announced overnight they reached afternoon agreement on a massive spending bill. Some of President Trumps key policies are not included. The 1 trillion budget would fund the government through september. Nancy cordes is on capitol hill. Nancy, good morning. Crowing about the fact that they managed to block sought of president s key demands. For instance, the deal including 1. 5 billion but the bill specifically says it cannot be used to build a new border wall. It keeps funding for planned parenthood in place through september and keeps 99 of funding for the epa, an agency that trump vowed to gut. Theres 14. 8 bill. It permanently extended Health Care Coverage and provides 68,000 for accomplishes to reinforce President Trumps trips back and forth to florida. Were expecting, charlie, that the house and senate will vote on it early h week. Nancy, thanks. The plan was planned by Steve Mnuchin and gary cohn. Hes a resident democrat and chief negotiating officer for Goldman Sachs. Good morping. Good morning. Thanks for having me. Do we have the votes for health care . I this we do. This is going be a great week were gong to get health care down to the floor of the house. Were convincing weve got the votes. As you said, we got the Health Care Plan rolled out and you should see it soon. Where are the cuts wranld might the revenue might be released . As you said, we rolled out one page for a specific reason. We want to get an enormous amount of input before we draft the final bill. When we deliver the final bill, with going to have a bill that is bought into by house and the senate. Youve just been talking about how difficult it is to get things through congress. We understand how difficult it is to get things through congress, how it cease designed to be difficult. We understand that. Were going to make the tax bill work. Right now there seems to be a lot of conversation about its very helpful to the welty, but what about the wealthy, gary . This is the many itle class tax bill. Im really cop fused that people dont understand what were doing here. If you look at what weve done, weve doubled it to 24,000. The Median Income many the United States is between 56,000. You take the 24,000 away from the 56,000, youve got taxable income of 32,000. At 10 rate, 3,000 of tax. If you have one to three children, you could end up with a very enlarge nall singledigit tax rate to no taxes whatsoever. But youre also eliminating the state tax. We are. And the deductions that were legislated over the years to the bell think have deductions. Middle income people and lower income people dont have deductions. Wealthy people have deductions. Were going to have wellier pay much broader taxes. Will it be revenueneutral. As i said, were working with the house, with the senate. We had a great meeting with the leadership last week. Were going to go through the tax plan in its entirety. We dont know what its going to score yet because were going to work on the details. If we get them all out, im pretty positive this is going to score positively. You believe you can eliminate deductionsome. We can broaden the base. Were going to tax a lot revenue but at a lower right. Instead of taxing at a high rate but taxing a lot to get to taxable income were going to tax a much bigger number at a smuch smaller rate. Yes, we believe it can work. Whats a nice democrat boy working in a Republican Administration who worked for Goldman Sachs . Im working here to drive the president s agenda to make america grts. Know. But what is it like personally . Weve heard its game of thrones, house of cards, them versus us. What is it like for you . I came from a teamoriented. This is no different. The president likes lots of different opinions, its the exact way i have worked my entire life. I am used to working an organization where people are disagreement is good. Disagreed is good. The president wants to hear both the pros and cons of every decision and im pleased with that. First of all, were pleased to be in white house and we appreciate having you. We priesh yaet you getting here. 6. Well talk with more white house insiders including chief of staff Reince Priebus and speaker sean spicer.

So much history has been made. This morning were making history here, getting to talk with President Trump and his top advisers. Several members of trumps and min staid where in green room. He was previous le the longest sharing of the Republican National committee. Good morning. Great to boo b here. Its a cool place to be her , r, doing this show. Its great honor. Just think. Hes watching you right now. The pressures on. Thats the only artifact since john and abigail, painting. Lets look down the hall. The moment president obama walked down the hall and said they killed Osama Bin Laden. The next question is the big legislative victory. Are you expecting a bill this week . I certainly hope so. Im on cities mystic. Do you think so . I think so. This will be one of the fastest pieces of signature legislation to go through for a president since roosevelt, i believe. So people make so much of the stimulus bill that barack obama put through. But, remember, that was prebaked during october during the financial meltdown and people on both sides of the aisle were writing bill they passed in february. But other than that, bush 3 passed the bill in june, reagan was in august. 41, bush 41 wasnt until a year and a half later, so this would be very quick for President Trump to get this thing through. Following up on that, do you have to have tack reform by the end of the year . I think well have it by the end of the year. I think thats a goal. It is said the presidency has been changed by donald trump and the presidency has changed him. How has he changed . Well, i wouldnt say hes changed. His views are the same and his positions on trade and the kmm and Foreign Policy are the same. He talked about nato in a way he talks about it differently. He talks about china differently than he did during the campaign. Nafta too. Lets take that for a second. Nato, his position is countries need to pay up and pay their fair share. You remember when the secretarygeneral walked out to the podium right over there, one of the first things that came out of his mouth is its time the countries pay up. I would say but positions hes call um others. Look at president xi. Whats happening is president xi is using his position. As far as an overall question, i think its an enormous job. Im sure you filming, me sitting here taking questions from you, it sort of changes you, right . It sort of makes you think about things a little differently. That changes eve s everybody. Will has been a lot of tense connen very sags. Can you imagine a scenario where they sit facetoface and conversation . Not right now i cant. Unless the person was willing to disarm and give up what hes put in mountainside across this country and give up his drive for a Nuclear Capability and icbms. I think the answers probably not and i dont see that happening. But were going to need a lot of cooperation around the lesion and leaders around the world in order to get this under control. Would that be a change in tax reform . I think youre going to see that. Certainly as i said earlier that balloon is going to get pops. All right. Reince priebusing well have to leave it here.

On his 100th day, i spoke with the president in his oval office. We spoke about president obama, the magnitude of the office, and how he uses the room. Every president has made the oval office theirs. What has made it yours . A lot of things. There were flags in differ they were always being pushed around because there once enough room. I said how beautiful flags are, navy, army, marine corps. So beautiful. So beautiful. Coast guard flag over here. I say, lets sigh how they look in the oval office. So the flags were up. The picture of Thomas Jefferson i put up, the picture of Andrew Jackson i put up because they said his campaign and my campaign tended to mirror each other. We did a lot of work. Its a much its a much different look than it was previously. What would fred trump think . Thats a picture o my father, my mother. What would he think . He was a building. He would be very you say the white house is a cocoon. Tell me about that . I was very proud. That was a different world. This is something, you are really in your own little world.

If i wanted to get out, drive my car to a certain location and go do something, you cant do that anymore. Havent been able to do that for a long period of time. All of that i understand. I guess i assumes that would happen if you won. Ant most importantly, i think were doing a very good job and i enjoy it. You do a lot of work in here. A lot. Mostly here actually. Why in here and not other places . I feel very warm in the oval office. Its a great symbol. Also when i have certain people we want to any goeshs for instance, we were talking about the introduction of the f 35 con track. It was totally out of control. I will save billions and billions and billions of dollars. And calling here, having meetings on the contract, i think, gives you great additional power if you want to know the truth. Big people from Big Companies have been here 50 times. In one case, i wont say who, you know who very well, the head of a major, major company, has been here 51 times. I said, oh, good. You were brought to the oval officesome he said hes never been brought to the oval office. The person came into the oval office and started to cry. This is a tough person, by the way. Came into the oval office and started cry. This is a person with a make nif sanlts office with beautiful glass walls and everything. You understand. Youve seen those offices before. There is something very special if somebodys going to behave like that in here, how do you know theyre not telling you what you want to here . You mean to cry . No. That when they dom in here, theyre not going to tell you know. We have them all. They all come here. They still take notice at the oval office and they mean it. Right. Thats what i mean. One of the worries about the presidency is everybody tells you yes. Nobody helps you figure out where your blind spots are. How do you find that . I guess its one of those things in life you have to figure out. Maybe i was figuring it out anyway long before i got here, but some things you have to figure out. This is a special place. The white house is special, oval office, very special. Any other gadgets y gotten installed since you came . Everyone thinks this is very ominous right here. See this . These are phones. These are very secure phones, but this is very ominous looking because of the red button. What does that get you . It gets you a coke or a pepsi, one or the other. It would have to be. Any other Cola Companies i have to mention . It gets you something. Any time i press it people worry. Ive changed the way it works. It used to be they never had chairs in front of the desk. But ive always done it this way where i have people at the desk and they sit here, but usually they sit on the sew fast. But this is a resolute desk. A great desk with phenomenal history. Many great president s were behind this deck. It like h. This was fdrs, ronald reagan, kennedy. George w. Bush said the reason the oval office is around, there are no corners to hide in. Theres truth that. Theres a certain openness. Nobody use out there. I have never seen anybody out there. What he meant was it all comes back to you. Sure, sure. I think thats true anyway, but theres no question. When did that hit you youre the magnitude of the office and that idea that you were regardless of what happened, the buck stopped at you. Its the attraction, bigness of the deal. If you look at orders of planes, its bigger than any orders of planes, you look at aircraft carriers and submarines. Its the mostly its the decision. When i made the decision to go with 59 tomahawk missiles, unbelievable technology, unbelievable talent. Those are tough decisions. Its a tough decision. Tough why . Because youre killing people. You could kill the wrong people too. If you end up in the wrong town or city, you have another tragedy. Because its killing, i hate it, but theys have to be done. How do you learn that skill . Who do you call . Theres nobody to call. Did president obama give you advice . Well, he did but after that there were it doesnt matter to me. You saw how everybody saw what happened, and i think that was inappropriate. What does that mean . You can figure it out yourself. The reason i ask is you qa e qaaled him success and back. You can figure it out yourself. He was mad with names and worsend and after that there was no relationship. And you take that i think you can take it any way you want. Our side has been proved and everybody is talking about it. I think thats a very big sur valance of our citizens. Think its a very big topic and it should be numb beer one and we should find out what the hell is going on. I just wanted to find out. Youre the president of the United States. You said he was sick and bad. You can take it any want. I want to know your opinion. Youre the president of the United States. I gave you my opinion. I want to know your opinion. Youre the president of the United States. Thats enough. Thank you. Thank you very much. He talked about the warmth of their relationship. Thats no longer the case. He thinks basically what he said before is that president obama as he wrote in that tweet bugged him or tapped his not bugged him but tapped him is how he put it. It would be interesting to hear but he clearly didnt want to answer if question. Im curious how you found him. On one, hes very denltd in how hes doing. On the other, he seeming to be wrestling with the confines of this office. Hes absolutely confident. All president s wrestle with the constraints, but i always in some cases doesnt want to talk about constraints because part of what hes talked about and written about is power of the image and so you want to look in his view of it at least in our conversation like youve gotten the world by the tail. When that ended, were you escorted out . Did someone lift you out . It was pretty clear i should escort myself out or i would be escorted out. It was a very good interview. Thank you, john. Were broadcasting from a room that was wasnt hung for president ial laundry. White House Press Secretary sean spicer had some tense conversations with reporters during his first 100 days on the job. Ahead, he shares the lessons hes learned and what he does to prepare for each briefing. Youre watching cbs this morning.

Well, welcome to the blue room inside the white house. This is really considered one of the most elegant rooms on the first floor of the white house. In fact, just take a look out this window. You can see the south lawn, the Jefferson Memorial. That view is just one of the reasons why this room is rece recently host for monarchs and states. The room name is taken from the furnishings. Yes, blue couches, blue curtains. Its undergone several renovations, most recently 1995 under former first Lady Hillary Clinton and it cost 350,000. Thats in private donations, not taxpayer dollars. Its where youll find the official White House Christmas tree. Its here in the middle. They actually have get rid of the chandelier here. The clock features the famous general hannibal, one of the greatest military commanders in history. 80s been in the blue room since the days of president james 1817. So this is really one of the ost valuable items inside the white house. Now, the rooms oval shape was inspired by a similar Reception Room in George Washingtons president ial mansion in philadelphia, and his famous portrait hangs down there in the east room where weve been broadcasting from all morning. Ill show you. We can peek right over here. The east room down there. Oh, look. Shes standing under the famous gilbert portrait of george washington. Good morning, elaine. Good morning, norah. This painting was painted by Gilbert Stuart at the end of jon john washingtons presidency. It was after john adams moved here in 1800. Its significant because so much history continues to be made in the east room. President trump has already talked to the press eight times here. Rooms storied past. Judge gorsuch has outstanding legal skills. For more than 200 years the east room has played host to history. Its the largest room in the white house. It has the highest ceiling of any room in the white house. So you see events of all kinds that take place in this room. Its where Lyndon Johnson changed the way u. S. Law handles issues of race. In 1964 president johnson signed this and had a wonderful warm handshake with dr. King. And where president nixon said goodbye to his staff when he resigned in 1974. Au revoir. Well see you again. It was in the east room when president obama announced to the world that Osama Bin Laden was dead. The United States has conducted an operation that has killed Osama Bin Laden. Its in stark contract to the way it was first Abigail Adams used it as a laundry room. Here she hung the clothes from wall to wall to dry. And it was held as a music vennier where music was performed sometimes for president. You have to look at it as historic. Im the soul man veteran sam says its where you have to put president s and policies ahead. Where theyre checking out each other behind the performance, thats wow. The room has been the site of marriages, a high school prom, even president ial funerals. A versatility that makes it one of the most important in world. There are billions of people around the world and they know what that house represents. Symbol and so many events take place right there in the east room. When president lincoln was in the white house, they held so many dances they had to prop up the floor with wood in the basement to prevent it from collapsing. Thank you. Think about seven funerals, seven wedding ceremonies. And now cbs this morning live. I feel really honored seriously. Thank you very much, elan. President takes his job to new heights. He had a celebration with the staff on board. Air force one captured only by John Dickerson and our camera. Well be right back. Congratulations to everybody. We all deserved it. This was a tough go and it was really fun. I just want to congratulate everybody. And now were going to do a great job for the American People. Thank you. President trump marked his first 100 days in office with what else, cake, on air force one. Cakes at all the celebrations. We were there at the private celebration after the rally in pennsylvania. Theyre feeling great at the mo give us a tour of the Briefing Room and well talk with my nmother and imoan im aa grandmother. m a 2008 was when all the markets crashed, we lost our retirement. Hamilton was losing hope and my husband and i were losing hope. My sister and i we challenged ourselves to help figure out a way to help them. Our kids bought us a quilt machine. It was very humble beginnings. We were just this cute little shop, just like everybody else. One day al came in and asked me if i wanted to do sure honey whats a tutorial . I had not a clue. Hi everybody im jenny from the missouri star quilt company. Youtube gave us the opportunity to really differentiate, we got to a 1,000 subscribers year one and now were at 300,000 subscribers. We started carrying all the fabrics that mom would use in the tutorials. Now were the Worlds Largest provider of precut quilting fabric. In the beginning we were just shipping 10 orders a day. Now we ship 5,000 orders a day. Opening a business in hamilton kinda sparked things. Weve got 14 quilt shops in town, three restaurants, a little hotel, we had over 100,000 people come to hamilton last year. We love jenny. My whole life ive always wanted to own a business. None of that would have been possible without missouri star quilt company. All i have to do is open my door and bake my goods and missouri star does the rest. Youtube has enabled my family and i to bring hope to the town and to the people who live here. Welcome back to cbs this morning inside the white house. You never know whos going to stop by here in the east room. First daughter and assistant to the president. I literally crashed your beautiful filming. Are you sorry you stuck your head in the door . You guys are so good though. Within seconds i was miked. I just wanted to come by with a cup of coffee to say hello. How are you liking washington . I love it here actually. It has been an adjustment for our family, but its actually a really lovely place to live. The kids like it. Theres space, which is nice. I think in new york you lack you just feel you can be outdoors a little bit more. Even last night late at night. Do you ever see your husband . I dont see him as much for sure. So we make the time were together count. But late last night jared and i went for a walk around the mall and it was so beautiful with the lincoln memorial. Just the two of you out there Walking Around the mall . Yeah. It was great. We had sneakers and baseball caps and it was amazing. So were really were trying to explore this new environment and new city and really sort of interact with it and enjoy it. Mrs. Bush used to do that. She used to go on the washington mall. She didnt know. You can sneak away at some point. And ive been doing a lot of it. I made a date with arbella. We have a standing date. How old is she now . Shes almost 6 in july. So whether its visiting the Supreme Court or going to one of the amazing smithsonian um theres really a lot to do. And i think theres a hot to do in new york as well, but when youve grown up in a place, you actually take it for your granted a little bit more. So weve been having fun. Cookouts in the backyard. Just the fact that you have a backyard is a big deal. Now youre getting a dog. Very true. It oohs tiny backyard but it works. Your biggest fan is speaking around the corner. I think its your husband. Come on out, jared. The same thing is going to happen to you. She just said, jared you cant walk in and not say anything. So, jared, i walked into this room and within 30 seconds i was miked. Could we please get a microphone for mr. Kushner . Jared, welcome to cbs this morning. Your first interview on cbs this morning. Jared, tell us about the walk on the mall last wife. Beautiful. Great company. Beautiful scenery. Keep working this way, jared. Follow me. Good work, major. Anybody else in family might want to come down . We could place a call to him. Are you up there . Ivanka, if i thought i wouldnt be handcuffed, id like to walk up and say, hello, mr. President rn president , were downstairs, were downstairs. It is pretty special. We were saying, the history in the room, no matter who you are, you cannot feel blase. No, thats exactly right. And it doesnt wear off. The experience is really no less intense and exhilarating today as it was three months ago. So theres this history. You find yourself standing at a window and thinking how many president s and first ladies and families had looked through that same piece of glass over the course of this fills you with awe and wonder and excitement. And a sense of this great nation. Exactly. We were out on the balcony looking at the Washington Monument and Jefferson Memorial and said, this is our country. Its true. Its heard not to feel pride. And now you get to work for it. Yes. And its a great honor and a privilege. I never thought i would be in this situation, but im humbled by the opportunity to make a positive impact. One thing. We want to invite you back here for serious conversations about what youre doing. I would love that. We sort of coaxed you to sit down. That was very nice of you. We wanted to have you talk about washington, but another time wed love to have you back and have a serious conversation about the country and its future. I would love. And bring jared kush hes the greatest. Im slightly biased that thank you for coming by. Thank you. Thank you, mrs. Kushner, for joining us aet the table. We appreciate it. Jared, youre welcome any time. You still have 32 minutes to make it over here. Actually a little less than that. About 20. About 20. 20 minutes. Press Secretary Sean Spicer, hes coming. Hes briefed 42 times since inauguration day. Before assuming this role he was adviser to the Republican National committee, he served in the navy reserve for nearly 20 years and hes called daytimes tvs new star with exchanges with fiery reporters. Heres look at sean spicers ten years so far. Good evening. Thank you guys for coming. This was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration period, both in person and around the globe. Youre equating me addressing the nation here in a tweet . I dont iea silliest thing i ever heard. If the president puts russian salad dressing on his salad, somehow thats a russian you told us please dont put words in my mouth. Mean dont make me make that podium move. Are you okay . Are you kidding me . Do you need some help . I think ive got this, but thank you. Maybe. Thanks, man. Ill see you in a minute. White house praes Secretary Sean Spicer just slipped into the chair. He joins us in the east room. Good morning, mr. Spicer. I tried to keep ivanka here. Shes much better. Great to have you. Always good to see thank you. They call you daytimes newest star for your fire are exchanges. Im wondering what its like when youre sitting up there . Its intense. It seems to be intense every day. Its only one piece of a day, you know. About 40 minutes of a day. The rest of it is a lost more calmer and a lot more pleasant. I think the tv cameras intensify what goes on there, but most of the exchanges are very pleasant throughout the day. Youre enjoying the job. Theres rye more rumors about e stay or will he not. Its truly an honor to have this job in the white house and i feel very humbled. I love what i do and as long as the president wants me around, ill stick in. He said youll stick around as long as theres great ratings. Keep tuning in. Obviously theres tension between the press and t president. Whats your position in making that position optimal. You want the president to be tough and you want an opportunity to explain your own policies. I think thats right. I think thats the fundamental aspect of what were trying to do. They have a right and a duty to get to the tough questions. I think theres a difference about the tone that occurs sometimes and an attempt to try to get a headline rather than a story. Youre talking about the press or the president . The press. We want to make sure i think you saw jeff mason over the weekend how weve fwop to Great Lengths to become transparent, be accessful, and a lot of the behind the screens is now how we operate. I understand the press is going and access. We want to make sure its their coverage. Thats where i think a lot of the coverage comes when you take an issue out of context or try to create a narrative that isnt there that sometimes what youre saying at the podium isnt driving at the facts of what the issue is. I wonder how youre dealing with. Again, we go out there every day armed with a set of facts. Sometimes its a gotcha. If thats the game of who can stump the chump, then thats not really an exercise of trying to get to the bottom of the situation. If its somebody trying o figure out how to get to another person, thats one thing. If its an attempt to get to the un, we do that every day. If someone is trying to figure out how they can sneak a fast one on us and say, did you know line 78 is thats n attempt to get the news. E im always amazed at times of a member of a press corps who has been sitting on an question for five or six hours only because they want to play a gotcha question. The theyre truly interested, i applaud that. You have to ask yourself whats the motive behind the tone and questions. Are you watching Melissa Mccarthy movies or are you sick of it . I enjoy this job very much, and theres some its north gnat when someone tells you theyre praying for you or thinking of you. Theres criticism that comes along with it. Guess what . Mike pence has worked hard and hes going to vo for dominion, part of delivering Affordable Energy includes supporting those in our community who need help. Our Energyshare Program does just that, assisting with bill pay and providing free, its more than helping customers, its helping neighbors. Stand by me ready or not, here i come. Ek. making it a reality is the hard part. Northrop grumman command and control systems always let you see the complete picture. And were looking for a few dreamers to join us. Were in the east room having a remarkable day, a special day for us, getting a chance to see this magnificent building. Feel the patriotism, the sense of history here, and were especially glad now to be joined by the Vice President of the United States. Welcome. Thank you very much. Welcome to the white house. Again, with north korea, you were there. Tell me the impact of being there and where you think this conflict is right now because the president i talked to John Dickerson characterized the north korean president. Its a very tense time. As the president said again and again, north korea represents the most serious Security Threat in the world. He wanted me to go there, reafurthermore our commitment to south korea, japan, and our allies there. For me it was it was a chilling experience to look into a nation living under the kind of oppress everybody the kim family means. Everybody knows ha the best way o get something done here is through china, with china. The president constantly talked about this relationship he has with xi jinping. What is the chpresident doing . The president has made it clear. We seeker a peaceable st. Louis, but the key is the message he had me make clear, he had the secretary of state make clear and hes made clear is the era of strategic patients is over. Now for more than a quarter of a century, the United States has in one way or another negotia d negotiated, had talks, waited patiently all the while. Weve seen the regime and its headlong pursuit of weapons and the ballistics missile program. He said, hes over. Region to diplomatically isolate north korea, but whats really new here, i think its a great encouragement that you have a president in President Trump whos engaging directly with president of china, and we are seeing china do more than they have done before. And what is that . Well, we have word of china turning back coal shipments in north korea. We have word of them beginning to reduce amount of commercial travel that exists between north korea. But as the secretary of state said at the u. N. Last week, china needs to do more. Were calling on our allies in the region to reconsider their diplomatic relations with north korea. Were calling on allies in the region to reconsider their worker program. The key here is for the United States and our allies in the region working with china to provide thin diplomatic pressure that will result in the regime and pyongyang ending permanently their nuclear and ballistic missile. We also made it clear all options are on the table. In actions the world has seen the president take, in syria and afghanist afghanistan, President Trump in a very real way has restored the credibility of American Power and they know that they know that we are prepared to defend our allies and dae fend ourselvesing but were going to drive toward a peaceable solution. Weve made it clear, mr. Vice president. To you have a sense of what they want in return from us . The North Koreans . Yes, yes. I dont think we do at this point. We continue to see one provocation after another. This weekend began with another failed Missile Launch from north korea, even while the World Community was discussing the issue with the council. How do we get at that to find out what he wants in return . What is the whole purpose here . I think north korea knows what the World Community wants. World has been united for a century that i want to know ha they want. Im curious about what they want. They want an end to sanctions. I think this is a terrific question because one of the things secretary of state secretary tillerson has made clear is that under president donald trump, were not going to negotiate to get the right to negotiate. Were not going to negotiate to get at the negotiation tachblt north korea knows through u. N. Actions in the past, through announcements by the u. N. Community, they need to abandon their nuclear program, abandon their ballistics missile program, they need to stand down in a very real sense to engage the right of the Community Going forward. Mr. President , can i ask you because Congress Finally reached agreement on this. So there wont be a Government Shutdown but it does not include money for the wall and it does continue funding for planned parenthood. Are you disappointed . We couldnt be more pleased that thanks to President Trumps leadership and direct engagement, last night the leaders many the white house and both parties signed off on a budget deal. It will avert a Government Shutdown but more important than that, theres going to be a significant increase in military spending. Our armed forces have been hollowed out in recent years. 21 billion in defense spending. I think American People are encouraged to hear since our inauguration that illegal border crossings are down 60plus percent in this country. And in this bill, theres a down payment on Additional Border security. Im also pleased to see as the president was insist t that were providing support for Health Benefits for coal miners and right here in the District Of Columbia were looking at disadvantaged children. This is a budget deal, a bipartisan win for the American People and the president signed off on the parameters early yesterday. Republicans and democrats reached a deal with the white house last night. I think thats good. There was compromise. There was compromise, yes. The president told John Dickerson over the weekend it has been a learning curb for the republican partd and for himself as well. Do you feel that . Well, for me, its been just an incredibly humbling experience o be able to come to this billing every day to sev as Vice President to president donald trump. But i think for our colleagues on capitol hill particularly as we continue to drive toward keeping our promise to repeal d a foundation for the infrastructure bill. I think the learning process for many on capitol hill about governing has been moving forward. And i think this mornings announce mnts about reaching a bipartisan deal on budgets, i think the American People can be encouraged that washington is works again. Thanks to the strong leadership of President Trump. Thanks to his direct engagement of members of congress. Thank you, mr. Vice president. Were out of time. I would like to come to wednesday night dinner ha thank you so much for joining us. We also want to thank everyone at the white house including the Communications Team and all of the staff who have been so gracious. Their help has been crucial in bringing this special broadcast to the east room. Our special thanks to cbs crew and nbc whats the story behind Green Mountain coffee and fair trade . Lets take a flight to colombia. This is boris calvo. Boris grows mindblowing coffee. And because we pay him a fair price, he improves his farm and invest in his community to make even better coffee. All for a smoother tasting cup. The drama continues with Monique Samuels here live in the studio. And we also have kathleen matthews. Shes about to get roasted but shes stopping by the great day studios first to tell us all about it. It is monday, may day, may the 1st. This my friend is great day washington. Yes, it feels so good. Good morning, my friends. Im chris leary. And im markette sheppard. And im meaghan mooney. Chris its may day as you said. May day, may 1st. It is actually melanoma monday its considered. Thats good to know. First monday in may. Put your sunscreen on right . Yeah, the whole month of may is skin Cancer Awareness month. The American Academy of dermatology kicks it off with that month of may 1st day. Thats good awareness, especially as its getting warmer. Youve got to remember all yearlong. I just want to give a shoutout this morning to the Washington Nationals and their 3rd baseman anthony rendon. Does he wear sunscreen. Probably so. The nats player was on fire with 5 hits, 3 home runs, 10 rbis in the game against the new york mets. Hes only the Second Player in Major League Baseball history to achieve that. Oh, and the final score 23, yes, that is this football season . For a baseball game. Have you ever heard of a score that high. Im missing an extra point in there. Im not talking about Major League Baseball, any baseball game, tball, little league. Combining the seven games together right . Isnt there a rule where if you get to a certain point they say thats it, youve got to go home. No, not if youre the mets. Give rendon and his entire family a bonus. All right . He is, yeah. Pretty awesome. Sports town, especially right now. If i told you a professional player lost a tooth last night in a game, would you think it was hockey . Yes, of course, i would too. However it was actually bostons Isaiah Thomas who took an inadvertent elbow from otto porter in the first period to produce the new mouth gap. Oh, boy. He cant put that thing back, cant grow a
