the missile blew up almost immediately after it was fired. >> the patriot missiles are alert in south korea. the cruises a part of that task group are ready to shoot anything down. >> this is certainly the most tense i've ever experience inside 11 trips to this country. i'm so sad my pressy idency coming to an end. >> no, sir. you have 1300 days left. >> i don't know. if you seen my tweets about north korea? this could all be over by monday. >> start a civil war. >> you never give a tax return when you're being audited. >> i am here because i think our government is corrupt and i think we have the right to know what our president so involved in financially. >> pope francis offered a prayer for the world saying the world looks at jesus with its eyes lowered out of shame.

good morning, everyone. i'm rene marsh in for christi paul. >> i'm victor blackwell. happy easter to you. we will take you to vatican city later this morning. new this morning we start in south korea where the vice president mike pence has arrived in seoul saying the u.s. stand with its ally. this is hours after north korea's later provocation falls flat. >> yet another missile launch by north korea but this one fizzled out second late. the white house is offering a low-key response, but they are also warning another north korean nuclear test could be imminent. >> the vice president wrapped up his first day in seoul. earlier, the second family attended easter service with u.s. and south korean troops. he repeated the commitment to the region. listen. >> this is a challenging time all over the world. but especially here in the asian pacific. the opportunity for me to be here today, at such a time as

this, is a great, a privilege for me. but let me assure you, under president trump's leadership, our resolve has never been stronger. our commitment to this historic alliance with the courageous people of south korea has never been stronger. and with your help and god's help, freedom will ever prevail on this peninsula. meanwhile, we are just learning that u.s. national security adviser lieutenant general h.r. mcmaster is in kabul, afghanistan, this morning. that is according to the official twitter account of the afghan president's office which reads welcome lieutenant general h.r. marc master for kabul and thank you for your continued support. we have learned he met with the afghan president. this comes days after the u.s. dropped the most explosive

nonnuclear bomb on isis positions in afghanistan. >> our team of reports and military analysts are standing by and start with chief political correspondent dana bash in seoul and she joins us on the phone. you're traveling with the vice president. dana, a very general reference to the missile launch from mr. pence. >> reporter: that's right. take was intentionally done. we were told coming over here on the way on air force two when the vice president got word of this failed missile launch, we were told that he was going to keep it low key. when he arrived here, he gave some brief remarks to u.s. troops where he, the vice president, had easter dinner and an easter service with them. he made pretty clear reference, but it was not direct and certainly not threatening. take a listen.

>> this morning's provocation from the north is just the latest reminder of the risks each one of you face every day in the defense of the freedom of the people of south korea and the defense of america in this part of the world. your willingness to step forward to serve, to stand firm without fear, inspires our nation and inspires the world. >> reporter: so, victor, what a white house foreign policy adviser said to reporters, again, on air force two on the plane, it was about within an hour after we took off refueling from a refueling stop in alaska that we got word of this. this adviser said, look. it's a failed test. it follows another failed test, so really no need to reinforce their failure. we have got a range of option, both militarily, diplomatic and others at the disposal for the president. and this adviser went on to say

if they took the time and energy to launch a missile and fail, we don't need to expend any resource against this. if this was a different test, namely, a nuclear missile test, that would have been very different in terms of the kind of reaction and response that we would have heard and maybe even scene from this u.s. administration. >> acknowledgment from the vice president. chief correspondent dana bash traveling with the vice president in seoul as he wraps up the first of 11 days of this asian pacific tour. >> will ripley joins us. will, what are you hearing after this failed missile launch? >> reporter: i met with north korean government officials in pyongyan pyongyang. people in the highest level here

who are privileged enough to have access of the outside media are aware of this failed missile laurge and happened on sinpo where north korea attempted to launch a missile last week ahead of president trump's meeting with xi jinping. most north koreans will never know this happened, as is typically the case with failed missile launches. there have been a couple during trips to the country i've done previously where the rest of the world is talking about it and it never appears on state-controlled media because it wouldn't serve their propaganda inside the country. the rocket scientists will learn from this and take the knowledge and try to launch again. the question is when? will they do it while vice president pence is in the region and fountain launch is a success you will see video and photos.

what is more troubling for analysts is that they now believe -- they thought perhaps because kim jong-un chose on saturday to reveal his new missile arsenal at that big military parade at the day of the sun holiday and showing this off was enough for north korea on. the missiles we were probably mock-ups but the analysts believe they have the right thing and working toward an icbm that could reach the mainland of the united states. since jong undoes not have increased pressure from the united states and not concerned about the strike group off the korean coast and wasn't concerned about president trump launch a missile trike on the syrian regime, could he push the button on this nation's sixth nuclear test? analysts in the u.s. and south korea say it could happen at any time. the test site is primed and ready. all kim jong-un needs to do is push the button. what we don't know rightly now how will the trump

administration respond to that? rene? >> will, thank you. that is the concern. will he push that button? will, i want you to stand by. we are joined now by lieutenant general mark hertling, cnn military analyst and former army commanding general with us now. you saw, mark, you saw that display of military force. then you have this failed launch. should that give the world a little bit of breathing room that perhaps north korea, at this point at least, is more style than substance? >> no. i don't believe that the case at all, rene. i think the parade was probably the most impressive they have ever had on the day of the sun to commemorate the birthday of the eternal leader. but they showed some weapons that they want to expand upon. their icbms and missiles as will just said, but i think they wanted to follow that impressive parade up with a couple of no

kidding experiments, the first one being the missile launch. they have been primed and ready for this nuclear -- the sixth nuclear test for almost a week now. intelligence indicators have watched this and seen all of the kind of indicators that it's about to be tested. so i think mr. k.j.u. will attempt to compound the parade with other actions. the most important of all this is the fact that he doesn't seem deterred at all by both president trump's words but also by president xi's word and actions in china. as you know china has moved several forces, several divisions, it's estimated, to the northern border of north korea, as well as the u.s. influence with the carrier battle group off the coast of korea. he is not deterred at all and he will continue to test and he will continue to look upon these provocationses as just another measure that he has to improve his capabilities to counter the rest of the world and their

feelings on him. >> yeah. i want to talk about the fact that they are likely not deterred in a second. isn't there a bit of embarrassment here? i mean, you have this parade and then you do this test launch and then it fails? >> you would certainly think so. but as will just said, his people don't know about this. so all they know about is this wonderful parade they just had that they had gobs of north korean newsmen covering and spattered all over north korea nets and televisions and newspapers. they don't know about this failed launch. there have been failed launches in the past and many of the south korea see this as a failed missile launch. he will continue to do it until he gets successful missile launches in a variety of ways and he continues, kim jong-un,

continues to expand his missile program and his attempt at matching and pairing nuclear weapons to icbms and other types of missiles. >> will, i want to bring you in here. as you know, vice president pence is in south korea today. he is going to be discussing the military response to north korea. what do you think pence's strategy is going to be going into these meetings in south korea with the leaders there? >> one, he needs to reassure south korea that the united states is behind them that the alliance is strong and the 28,000 u.s. troops on the southern side of the korean peninsula will be ready to come to the defense of south korea if things escalate. keep in mind out of of all the u.s. allies in the region south korea is the one to lose. take nuclear weapons out of the equation. north korea has a standing army of more than a million people and a lot of conventional

weapons including artillery luned up like the demilitarized zone. the city of seoul is 30 miles from the dmz and artillery pointed for seoul could be easily done and do a lot of damage if north korea felt they were in a corner here. not a type of scenario you could launch an air strike on a military target and expect that nothing will happen in terms of retaliation because north korean official i've been speaking with here said they will retaliate with force if the united states launches some sort of preemptive strike on this country. another interesting thing i learned at the military parade on saturday, speaking with a government official, there was a special operation that was conducted in north korea on thursday where there were commandos jumping out of airplane and they put out photos of that special operation. the official told me that was in direct response from tweets by president trump about north korea. >> thank you so much to you both for that great context.

if you don't see your photo you must immediately leave the oval office and join kellyanne conway in the basement. the person who will stay on as my top adviser is jared! that sketch coming on the heels of what the president has been signaling this week, that many observers have saying he is putting distance between himself and steve bannon. let's talk about this with errol lewis along with sarah westwood of "the washington examiner." >> good morning. >> errol, you get every question on the "snl" conversation because you're the only one of the three of us who has been featured on the show. so what did you think? there is some truth to that. the reporting shows there is this feud and things are getting pretty contentious. >> the reality is our cousins in the comedy writing business are actually pretty good and a number of people who come out of

political journalism and work for late night comedy shows and work for "snl." it does, in fact, reflect what the reporting also reflects and whether you're looking at the "the washington post" or "the new york times" or "vanity fair" has a great profile and a lot of infighting here and the infighting matters in this case. it's not trivial and not just a joke. a president was not elected to anything and not part of a political force. the personalities and the personal agendas within the white house matter more than usual and watching this fighting going on actually does tell you what policy is going to look like coming out of this white house. >> sarah, you're there at the white house. how close is this to a breaking point? >> there are a group of trump supporters who are increasingly worried about bannon lose onning his influence within the white house because even though jared kushner advocates for more

centrist progs and for trump to pursue more compromises he is inexperienced and some in his orbit are worried that kushner vastly overestimates the likelihood that democrats are going to work with trump on anything. so even if bannon is ousted in some sort of shake-up coming in the west wing, there are still voices inside the white house. we have steven miller who came from sessions office in the senate and sessions is d.o.j. mick mulvaney at the doj. but bannon is the face of that ideological faction and his demotion would be a sign that trump is moving away from that ideology. >> does that lose supporters? >> some people are social media saying they stand with bannon

and so far, and so on. this is the heart of the question. does trump need to rile up or hold on to that base in order to do what need to do both in governing terms and in political terms? and it's not clear that that is the case. you know? i mean, where would a die-hard trump supporter, a nationalist, a populist supporter, where would they go now and have him do what he is not doing? you have a whole bunch of policy items that this administration has to get on with and that is governing. that is not the politics of the moment. so if the populace aren't happy the way he is trying to build a wall or reset trade relations or the way he is trying to make our defense posture in the far east and in the middle east, well, you know, we will see in 2020 but right now they have to figure out how to run the country. >> sarah, there has been a lot of talk about the search for a trump doctrine as it relates to

foreign policy. but as we look at domestic issues, these two men are very different. is there any clear indication of which is most like the president's own ideology if we know what the president's ideology is? >> he is flexible. what he wants more than anything is get things done. he doesn't really care about the details of how you get there. i think health care was a perfect example of that. conservatives wanted president trump to pursue a more black and white repeal of obamacare and a replacement, rather than just the bill that was put forward which was seen more as tinkering on the margins of the health care system. president trump didn't care whether it was the conservative approach or a moderate approach. he just wanted a bill to go through that he could check off the box of obamacare being reformed. within the white house, you had conservatives who were concerned about the approach that was put

forward and on the other side of the spectrum you had kushner and others who wanted president trump to go even further towards a compromise to get them democrats on board to work with him. you can see that president trump only really cares about the ends, rather than the means. and that gives room for these advisers to pull him in different directions. >> the rhetoric on the president and steve bannon has changed the last 85 days or so. thank you both. >> thank you, victor. this likely will be one of the topics coming up on "state of the union" later this morning. on the show, senator bernie sanders is jake tapper's guest. the show starts at 9:00 a.m. eastern here on cnn. the death toll in a car bomb explosion in syria has risen to at least 112. yesterday's blast targeted a bus convoy carrying several thousand syrian refuges. . the buses, which were parked at the time, were taking refuges from two rebel-held towns into

aleppo under a so-called four towns agreement. the united states has condemned the blast. no group has claimed responsibility. north korea is ignoring worldwide angst over the country's missile test and disregarding a clear warning from the united states. so how is the white house responding? i mean wish i had time to take care of my portfolio, but..

>> reporter: yeah. really no response from president trump, rene. in fact, his administration marking this failed missile launch in north korea with a very terse and short response from defense secretary james mattis, really a two sentence response. secretary mattis putting it this way saying the president and his military team are aware of north korea's most recent unsuccessful missile launch. the president has no further comment. so administration officials saying that this terse and short response is exactly what was needed because north korea, that they don't want to give north korea the attention that north korea sought in making this missile launch, a failed missile launch at that. the vice president, of course, traveling over in seoul today. he landed there today after that trip from the u.s. yesterday. the vice president really just making passing remarks when he spoke with military families in seoul earlier today saying that this failed test was a reminder of the provocation and the risk that those people in south korea face. now, on board air force two, a

white house foreign policy adviser did speak with reporters, telling them on background that the administration does not believe that this was an intercontinental ballistic missile that failed. they do believe this was a medium-range missile. again, the administration really putting a fine point on it with that white house foreign policy adviser really putting it this way, saying, if they took the time and energy to launch a missile and fail, we don't need to expended any resource against that. to that end the president, himself, not responding to the failed missile test. in fact, the president here spending a quite and somewhat relaxing weekend at mar-a-lago. we have seen him twice over at his golf course. trump international here in west palm beach. we know the president is down here at mar-a-lago with the weekend with first lady and their son and don jr. and his family. we expect it's possible the president might attend easter service at the church he attends here in palm beach. really the administration not giving much of a response to this failed missile test.

>> reporter: it's been an annual tradition for well over a century. one of the most lighthearted days of the year at the white house and one of the most crowded. tens of thousands of adults, children, and eggs on the south lawn! the egg roll, itself, is a race. children push eggs across the grass with long handled spoons but this event dates back to the late 1800s when president hayes led a group of kid and let them play easter game on the south lawn and it's happened nearly every year since then except for a break for world war ii and a few rain-outs. first lady pat nixon introduced the white house easter bunny for the first time in 1969 and decade later a familiar face. sean spicer put on the east egg

bunny. reports of late arrangements, overdue ifnvitations and a plea for the company's wooden eggs tweeting, quote, manufacturing deadline for the easter eggs are near. please reach out. the company assures fans the eggs will be done, even sharing these behind the scenes photos from the workshop of the finished product. and the bush era bunny says, confidently. >> i think we are going to have an egg-lesent time. >> reporter: no word whether he is inside the suit this year. christi paul, cnn. final preparations for the easter egg roll are happening today. we want to take you behind the scenes. we have got kate anderson broward, a cnn contributor and author of the book "first women." and melinda gates, the director of the white house visitors office under president clinton and she is also the author of white house story. good morning to you both. kate, we know that the first

lady's office is in charge of organizing this event. but melania trump's full staff wasn't in place in time to start the planning. how big of an issue do you think this is going to be? >> well, look. it's the biggest public event at the white house and during the obama administration they had upward of 35,000 people at the easter egg roll and it's a feel-good event. i know for the obama administration and i know melinda it walk more about this with the clintons. we are talking about january of 2009 people working on this. the fact they didn't have a staff in place to really coordinate the easter egg roll which is a huge on event. i think it does pose problems. it's going to be a scaled-down event and we know about 20,000 people this year versus the upward of 30,000 for the obamas last year. like everything with the trump administration, it was off to a

bit after slow start but i think it's going to be a fun day. >> melinda, you've been behind the scenes for this sort of event. give us some specifics. what exactly could go wrong here? >> so many things can go wrong. there is all of the logistics of moving tens of thousands of people on the lawn in an orderly way without them having to wait all day to get in. once on the lawn, there should be dos of activities spread out across the lawn. there would be celebrity readers and musical act. if they have reached out to the diplomatic community a display of springtime traditions and as people exit normally, you hand each child a wooden easter egg that looks like this and a little gift bag. you know what? it takes time to stuff 20,000 little gift bags. you can't do that overnight. i can't imagine they will have

them ready. >> so it could be chaos on the front lawn of the white house if they don't get their act together. kate, back to you. this is one of the largest events that we are going to see at the white house and it is the first lady's responsibility traditionally. how much of a big test is this going to be for melania trump? >> i think melania has big shoes to fill with michelle obama, because part of this is about playing with the kid, being out there on the lawn. i covered this as a white house reporter and you see firsthand, president obama out there shooting hoops with shaquille o'neal and reading children's books and a celebrity packed event and they had fergie books for the 2009 easter egg roll well in advance. melania is more reticenreticent. this is a test whether she can get down there and play with the kid and interact with people. that is one of the fun parts

about tomorrow so we have to give her a chance and wait saen e. >> she actually tweeted recently about this event. we are going to put that up on the screen. looking forward to hosting the annual easter egg roll at the white house on monday. so she sound like she is geared up and ready. melinda, i want to talk to you about performances. usually you see some pretty high profile names. in the past, justin bieber and miley cyrus and this year's performer is relatively unknown bro band, bro 4. is this a sign there have been some struggles in planning this year? >> i think not only have they been slow to pay attention to this and plan, i think perhaps they are not all that many people in the entertainment industry who are interested in participating, which is kind of sad. i imagine that last year, they had the star of "frozen." and this year, two little known band.

i don't know who the celebrity readers will be and that is always a thrill. my personal favorite moment out of all eight, i'm the first person in history to have organized eight of these, was watching robert de niro reading a children's book on the lawn of the white house. an amazing experience. i don't think they have got any of that lined on up. >> kate anderson broward and melinda bates, thank you. >> who is bro 4? i saw a picture and can't rehearse a single verse they have much less a hit. melissa mccarthy returning to "saturday night live" last night as reprising her role as sean spicer. >> president trump recently bombed syria while eating the most beautiful piece of chocolate cake america has ever laid eyes on! that is a fact!

sugar, you may be low in protein. so take a few slow deep breaths in through the nose, and out through the nose. during that time, think about when it was last that you ate protein. if it was more than three or four hours ago, you may need a protein packed snack. after eating that, move on and see if you still want the carbs or sugar. next, play reverse psychology on yourself. if you don't like chocolate cake but if i tell you you cannot have chocolate cake, you want it, because psychologically you want what you can't have. give yourself permission to eat whatever you want whenever you want and see if that helps with cravings. if you went to bed early, i did, show started at 6:00 this morning, you missed the thrilling nba playoff game between the jazz and the clippers. >> christina fitzpatrick has
