reporting begins today with an impromptu presidential q&a session. president trump talking about the north korean missile launches to upcoming trade talks with china that could affect global markets. more in just a moment. the president also weighed in on the intelligence committee subpoena for his son, don jr. republicans control that committee pitting the president's son against his father's own party. president trump says his son is a good person and that he's already given investigators everything they've requested. >> frankly for my son, after being exonerated to now get a subpoena to go again and speak again after close to 20 hours of telling everybody that would listen about a nothing meeting? yeah, i'm surprised. >> shepard: when a reporter asked the president would he would fight the subpoena, the president said we'll see what

happens. john roberts reporting live from the white house. john? >> shep, good afternoon to you. this has been going on for some time now. when donald trump jr. first did an interview with the staff members of the senate select committee on intelligence in december of 2017, he agreed to stay as long as they wanted him to state, which amounted to nine hours to answer questions with the understanding that it would be a one and done-type of a fair, that he wouldn't have to come back. multiple sources tell us that recently the committee invited donald trump jr. back to answer more questions. according to a source close to trump jr., he tried to make an accommodation with the committee offering written information, even saying that he would consider coming back in person for an hour or two if the follow up questions were limited to select topics. the committee we're told wanted an open-ended time commitment and had some 10 to 12 topics to cover, including trump tower meeting back in 2016 in the

summer and the trump tower moscow project. both topics had been explored by the committee and the special counsel, robert mueller, who found no evidence of wrong doing on trump jr.'s part. the president weighing in on that earlier today. >> i was very surprised. i saw richard burr saying there's no collusion. now he's testified for 20 hours or something. a massive amount of time. the mueller report came out. that is the bible, the mueller report came out. they said he did nothing wrong. >> richard burr is the chairman of the committee. a source close to the president says trump jr. believes they want to compare what michael cohen is in jail for lying to congress and compare what he said to what don jr. said, that the president didn't know about the trump tower meeting and donald trump jr. had only peripheral involvement in the trump tower moscow project.

it appears that is exactly what democrats want to do. listen to senator richard blumenthal of connecticut. >> i want to hear about what the truth is as to what he said to his father about the meeting in trump towers with russian agents. why he said he was only peripherally aware with the moscow negotiations when he was in the thick of it. he truly misled the judiciary committee. now he needs to be held accountable. >> the source that we spoke to donald trump jr. says if the committee needs the information, donald trump jr. will find a way to get it to them. the source questioned is the committee looking for a sound bite or are they looking for the information here. at the same time that this is going on, democrats are now trying to figure out when to schedule a vote in the entire house of representatives to hold the attorney general, bill barr, in contempt of court for

refusing to hand over the unredacted version of the mueller report and the background investigative materials. nancy pelosi asked if she agreed with the judiciary committee chairman gerald nadler that the nation is in a constitutional crisis. in answering that question, seemed to indicate that there may be more contempt of congress charges ahead. listen here. >> this administration wants to have a constitutional crisis because they do not respect the oath of office that they take to protect and defend the -- to support the constitution of the united states. >> well, i was expecting her to say in terms of timing when we're ready, we'll come to the floor and see because there might be some other contempt of congress issues that we might want to deal with at the same time. shep, she did not elaborate on all of that. we do know that the white house is in a wrestling match with congress over documents that were subpoenaed from don mcgahn,

the white house also considering whether don mcgahn will or will not appeal before the house judiciary committee. a lot of potential or a lot of contempt of congress and more battles ahead, shep. >> shepard: it would appear. the president today also went after the previous administration. >> he did. he accused john kerry of getting in the way of negotiations or at least diplomacy between the united states and iran. in an interview with hugh hewitt on september 12 of last year, kerry said he had spoken with the iranian minister three to four times saying what i've done is try to elicit what iran might be able to do in order to change the dynamic in the middle east for better. he said he was blunt and told them the world does not appreciate what is happening with missiles, hezbollah and yemen. the president saw that involvement as kerry trying to go around the state department and conduct his own diplomacy.

listen here. >> what i'd like to see with iran, i'd like to see them call me. john kerry speaks to them. he tells them not to call. that is a violation of the logan act. he should be prosecuted on that. my people don't want to do anything that is -- only the democrats do that kind of stuff. >> a spokesperson for john kerry begged to differ with the president saying everything president trump said is wrong, end of story. he's wrong about the facts the law and sadly wrong about how to use diplomacy to keep america safe. secretary kerry helped to negotiate the nuclear agreement with iran. he said we hope the president would focus on solving foreign policy problems for american instead of attacking his predecessors for theater. tensions ratcheting up with the united states and iran which is why we're moving a carrier group in the gulf just in case and why secretary of state pompeo went to iraq in recent days.

shep? >> shepard: john roberts with his bag pipes. the relationship with the united states and north korea is unraveling as both sides test out some missiles and the united states targets north korea's bank account. we're just learning that a navy submarine is expected to test fire an unarmed long range nuclear missile off the coast of cape canaveral later today, this as the trump administration confiscate one of north korea's largest cargo ships trying to ship out coal, which is a violation of sanctions. the assistant attorney general said the sanctions busting ship is now out of service. earlier today, north korean and american military officials launched test missiles minutes apart. u.s. officials say the timing was a coincidence. south korean officials say the rogue nation launched two short

range missiles. north korean's foreign minister called the launch routine and a self-defensive military drill. president trump said the white house is seriously monitoring the situation. >> we're taking a good look. we'll see. the relationship continues. we'll see what happens. they want to negotiate. they talk about it but i don't think they're ready to. >> shepard: back in february, talks between president trump and kim jong-un about a possible nuclear agreement fell apart during their second summit in hanoi and vietnam. north korea's test this week are the country's first missile launches since november of 2017. rich edson reporting live from the state department. rich? >> shep, since that hanoi summit, officials say the discussions and negotiations with the north koreans have stalled. secretary of state mike pompeo was supposed to be in greenland today. officials say he cut that trip short, returned to the

washington area this morning. officials say the reason was to discuss iran, but now because of these missile launches when he was on his way, that is a subject that will be folded into why the secretary is here and not in greenland. previously secretary pompeo has talked about the more recent north korean missile launches and said they are of a shorter range, they'd never cross any international borders and never threatened the united states. also, there was a pledge from kim jong-un last year that north korea would not fire any long range icbms and these launches, the more recent launches seemed to adhere to that pledge. if you take in the more recent launches and the rhetoric from north korea, it's a much more aggressive stance from the north koreans than we have seen. kim jong-un has been demanding that the united states relent on sanctions relief. the united states has said no. essentially the only way the u.s. is giving up on sanctions

is if north korea gets rid of their nuclear weapons. today when all this is happening, he's in seoul, south korea. >> shepard: what more do we have on the seizing of the coal ship? >> the justice department says this is part of what they call a cycle of sanctions evasion. the united nations banned cole exports. the operators of the ship tried to evade the location or tried to disguise where it was. the state department said --

>> a senior justice department official said the ship is in u.s. custody and on its way to american samoa. shep? >> shepard: thanks, rich. live at the state department. warfare meet whily coyote. a secret missile that acts like a falling hunk of steel hitting the ground. how important that could become. we're less than two hours away from a high stakes meeting with negotiators from china trying to hammer out a trade deal before tomorrow when president trump says he will more than double the current tariffs. that is coming up as our reporting continues on this thursday afternoon. >> we're the piggy bank that everybody steals from, including china. we've been paying china $500 billion a year for many, many

china and into other countries like vietnam to avoid the tariffs that could cause a global slow down to continue and a slow down here in the united states. the president believes that china has more to lose than we do. this is a global game of economic chicken. he's looking at strong fundamental numbers in the united states. >> shepard: thanks, edward. to gerri willis live on the floor of the stock exchange. the stock is down. >> this is shaping up to be the worst week of the year for stocks. dow down 203. the s&p down 16. weakness in stocks. it could have been worse. at its worst, the down was down 440 points. big rally. why? the very comments that you just heard about. the trade deal was still possible. that's what the president said. he got a beautiful letter from the chinese president and hoped to talk to him by telephone. that's what investors are

adding that even as anna sorkin's scheme came crashing down, she didn't stop. with that, she handed down the 4 to 12-year sentence. she will have to do a minimum of four years. the five-week trial ended april 24. a jury found her guilty on multiple counts of grand larceny for her scam of pretending to be a wealthy german heiress. she claimed to have $67 million in trust funds overseas. she apologized in court. prosecutors say that sorokin faked her way through social circles and conning those around her to believe that she couldn't access her fake trust account, asking friends to front big bills that she never played back. she played the part well going on lavish trips, one to morocco with a reporter tagged along to document her lifestyle and shopping trips.

listen. she went shopping, indeed. prosecutors say sorokin stole around $275,000 including a $35,000 bill she didn't play for a private jet she chartered from the birkshire hathaway shareholders meeting. she claimed her father was a diplomat or oil baron. in reality, he was a truck driver. sorokin's attorney said she never showed criminal intent but an ambitious entrepreneur. >> shepard: surrounding this, tv projects in the works? >> she's been the rikers island. her story caught the attention of tabloids and movie makers. netflix was creating a series on her tale. one of her friends reportedly stole her story and sold it to simon and shuster with hbo. sorokin faces deportation to germany because she overstayed her visa. she will face ice agents once

helping out a theft heist. and why david beckham can't drive his bentley for a while. first, the missile nicknamed the flying ginsu because of the blades that punch out from its sides to rip apart enemies. it's designed at killing terror leaders without blasting apart civilians. the "wall street journal" posted the news, the hellfire r9x. that missile has no warhead. it's just solid metal blasting down from the sky. the journal report knives extend to shred the target without hurting others. officials have not only been using this a half dozen times already, it was at one point a plan b to take out osama bin

laden. meantime, we're watching military moves with ships and bombers the pentagon has deployed to the middle east. after what we're told were threats from iran. iran said they would stop complying with the nuclear deal. the u.s. hit them with sanctions and warns that tehran can expect further action if they alter they conduct. we go now to the managing director at the washington institute, michael o'hanlon. what do you think of this? >> with north korea and iran, both states are trying to increase their leverage against the united states, increase the urgency of finding solutions to these crises and really to put pressure on the trump administration. it's going to take some patience and diplomacy by the trump administration to resist this. >> shepard: what sort of actions

could iran take now to deescalate this? >> we see them escalating, shep. i'm not sure that they want to deescalate. they see two sources of leverage. one is actions in the region. they know fundamentally the u.s. wants out of the middle east. so by targeting forces, u.s. allies there, they may see a comparative advantage for themselves. second is resuming their nuclear program to try to accelerate the clock, create urgency. sanctions take time to work. the message they're trying to send to the europeans and washington, we won't give you that time. we'll force events by these type of steps. >> how great the concerns that one mistake could lead to an escalation that nobody wants? >> i think we should have tremendous concern about that, shep. look at what has already happened. the iranians have given ballistic missile to yemen.

if one of them hits and kills civilians, you have a different dynamic on your hand as if the iranians targeted u.s. forces. >> and the idea of sending this strike force over with the warnings that are accompanied, good idea or bad idea? your thoughts. >> this has created a lot of speculation and panic in washington. it's a prudent step, shep. it's quite credible that under this massive burden of sanctions, iran would look for ways to push back, to retaliate against american interests. not necessarily by using sanctions, but by using the tools they have. so extending these forces as a deterrent, you might avoid that conflict all together and calm the situation a bit. so it is prudent. >> shepard: thanks, michael. >> thanks. >> shepard: concerned about your privacy? what about your child or grandchild's privacy?

now we know amazon may be illegally recording what your kids and grandkids are saying. that is what a coalition of child protection and privacy groups is now reporting. they filed a complaint with the federal trade commission claiming that the echo dot kids edition violates children's privacy laws. a version of alexa. the coalition claims alexa stores what kids tell it even if parents try to delete the conversation. last year, some folks in oregon said that the device recorded their private conversation and sent to it a person in their contact list. jackie deangelis has more. >> let's talk about how these devices work so we can understand what is at issue here. when you're talking to alexa, for example, there's a wake word that triggers the device to interact with the user. sometimes that wake word can be

triggered when you don't mean to. that's part of the problem. people don't necessarily realize when the device is on and when it's off. either way, the recording is certainly a problem and how this data is being stored, kept is certainly concerning for a lot of people, especially when it comes to the devices specifically targeted at children seen as a part of the population that needs to be defended more. amazon gave us a statement about this from a spokesperson. it said free time on alexa and kids dot are complying with the childrens online protection act. customers with finds more information here, amazon.com/alexavoice. so this is one of the issues. the second is the fact is that the smart speakers are not just limited to the echo and alexa.

are accusing dennis rodman with a scheme to help steal from their shop. that's according to tmz. tmz sports released this video. rodman walked in with three people. the owners told tmz that he distracted workers while a woman stuffed clothes in her purse. at one point, she walked behind him and shoved more items in her bag apparently using him to shield her from the workers. it just got weirder after that. let's let trace gallagher tell us more. >> i would like to have mike tobin's type. this is a celebrity yoga studio where people like kolb bryant and selena gomez among the clientele. tuesday, dennis rodman walked in with two women and a man. an employee said they wreaked of
