this was the last day before the trump presidency s 100th day. and congress put in less than half a day because there is no trump agenda item alive in congress right now. there is no bill moving anywhere in congress now. no legislative vehicle that is a trump agenda item. we have never seen a 99th day like this for a president. every president s busiest legislative year is the first year. it s when their power of persuasion over the congress is at its highest. and it only goes down after that. what a president accomplishes in his first year is usually most of what the president will accomplish in his first term. this is so clear historically that when bob woodward chose to write a book entitled the agenda, he decided to focus entirely on a president s first year. and he picked a president with a loaded first year agenda, bill clinton. at this point in bill clinton s first year, the congress was working overtime. at the same time, congress was working on nafta, a giant tax bi ....

worldwide. in his first speech abroad he urged them to purge their communities of, quote, the foot soldiers of evil. the man who campaigned heavily on a proposed muslim ban today asked islamic leaders in the middle east to unite with america in the global fight against terrorism. let s get out to nick robinson in the saudi capital where president trump gave that speech today. nick. reporter: ana, part of president trump s message seemed to be to alleviate the concerns of those in the room that under president obama they lost the support of the united states. he said our friends never need to question our support, a reassuring message for those in the room, but he had a tone that was designed, if you will, draw the audience in. he said, i m not here to tell you how to live your lives, that we have common values, and through those common values we can find common security. he also said that what s troubling the region is not an issue of a contest between faith. this is not a ....
saying, oh, no, never mind that, you re fired. to be clear to the viewers, we don t have the reporting confirmed that you re sharing with us. but that s obviously something we re trying to get information, answers to the white house, the justice department not commenting specifically on this firing. but let s talk a little bit more about bharara, his role here in new york, and really when it comes to litigation on such a large scale that impacts the country. he was not necessarily in just a routine post. so he gets called in the southern district of new york, called the sovereign district of new york. because it s a huge orbit. rudy giuliani was there. comey from the fbi. bhrara is looking at the mayor of new york city, has this ongoing corruption probe. he s about to try two of andrew cuomo s closest confidantes. and looking at things international in scope. really big and interesting. in addition to the fox thing i mentioned, significantly. he has an investigation excu ....
happy easter to those of you celebrating. we have a lot of politics to get to. but first, the growing tension between the united states and north korea. north korea last night launched a ballistic missile from the submarine base in sinpo, but the missile exploded minutes after launch. this happened as mike pence landed in south korea for talks on how to counter the growing nuclear ambitions and he spoke to american troops at a breakfast there this morning. i m joined by senior national security analyst juan duarte, the failure, the new york times this morning leans hard into the idea that the failure wasn t necessarily a north korean failure, but maybe sabotage and possibly sabotage from the united states. what can you say? this is a missile program that s been replete with failures. and the challenge is we don t know yet. it could be sabotage. it could be poor engineering or bad luck. it s the nature of the missile programs but it s clear that many trump voters though are ....
