the meaning was clear. >> people just make stuff up. we see the utter loss of shame among political leaders, where they're caught in a lie, and they just double down and lie some more. >> reporter: while president trump received widespread backlash here at home, his summit performance played right into the russian propaganda machine. putin unsurprisingly garnering almost unanimous praise from a press corps mostly controlled by the russian president himself. >> one more note on this. the summit controversy is too much for one republican leader in ohio. chris gagin has resigned. he says the president's correction of his comments unfortunately, with the gh. president trying to alter the meaning of the language that we

all saw him use in helsinki, i'm afraid it's not as credible as those in the white house would hope. i take no joy or pleasure in saying that, but i just don't think that's going to alleviate the problems. >> so the commissioner there called his resignation a matter of conscience and says he's still a proud conservative and republican. hundreds of victims of the las vegas concert massacre are now being sued by the hotel management company where it happened. since the attack many victims have sued the company. mgm's new lawsuit is asking the judgment to dismiss the claims and rule that the hotel is not liable for the massacre. people are still posting video of pranking their kids. their videos show them embarrassing or harassing their kids.
