i'm christine romans. >> i'm dave briggs. 31 minutes past the hour. happy monday.stin, texas. we start with breaking news. police in austin investigating another explosion rattled by a series of recent blasted. -- blasts. they are working on the attack which is connected to earlier explosions that killed two people. it was reported near the dawn song drive near the republic of texas boulevard. >> austin police are asking residents to stay home until 10:00 a.m. local time. the chief says the way the device was detonated is serious cause for concern. >> it is possible this device was a device that was activated by someone handling or kicking or coming in contact with a trip wire that activated the device. that changes things. we need the community to have an extra level of vigilance and pay attention to a package or bag or backpack or anything that looks out of place and do not approach it. >> the two men injured in the blast are in good condition at local hospitals. schools are excuses absences today since school buses cannot get by the scene. this is after the rewa

like jennifer, christine was empathic and passionate.led by humanity and understanding. individual effort of pushing towards a larger goal. she was the future of the work. she is irreplaceable. jennifer gonzales was well known throughout california as a dynamo. and up and comer with boundless energy and cutting-edge skills. she left her mark personally and professionally up and down the state, los angeles, palo alto, mountain view, santa rosa, san francisco, napa. a local gem who made a national impact in the field of care for veterans. we were blessed that she joined the student fret program at the san francisco ba. absolutely. she was a consummate team player, devoted to directly helping veterans, clinical poise, skills and depth. so warm and genuine, bright in the truest sense of the word. smart but also radiant, effervescent and enthusiastic. she always wanted to do more, more places to go, more people to meet, pulsing with energy. on our team, we loved jen of course, but we would always laugh a little because she had beautifully col

my panel, christine quinn and matt welch. how was this not vetted, either by the white house or by them? >> i don't understand it. we were talking at the break, the wife is a lawyer. i've been asked to be in different boards in government capacities, private citizen capacities, and i always have to check with her to make sure her firm doesn't have any business relevant to that board. >> if they do, you say no and it doesn't get announced publicly probably. >> the vetting is run before you can sign a contract, take a client. so how this happened makes no sense at all from the way you run government. >> i think the real thing here is the vetting is whatever the president of the united states says at a given moment. so everyone plays catch-up afterward. his tweet about every lawyer wants fame and fortune and no one would turn it down. here's how bad it is for his legal team. my neighbor's dad was asked to be his lawyer. this is months ago -- >> maybe you have a really nice neighborhood. >> no, i mean, yes, it is very nice. >> he

i'm christine romans. >> i'm dave briggs. "the bachelor" finale had more breaking news than we had today. one time trump campaign adviser sam nunberg has three days to decide to stick to his board and co -- word and comply with the grand jury investigation. it is of interest because of the cable news circus, but claims he made could have a real impact on robert mueller's russia probe. he is supposed to appear friday in a series of interviews. nunberg said no way. >> they want me over. they want me over at the grand jury. screw that. to go? why? for what? >> this week's whirlwind started with a grand jury subpoena over documents related to the campaign. he spent five hours being questioned by the special counsel's team. >> you are willing to go to jail for this? sam? >> i'm not cooperating. arrest me. >> you are not cooperating. arrest you? >> yes. i'm not cooperating. you are more than happy to arrest me. you know what? at this instant, i'm not a fan of donald trump, jake. >> you had a big falling out. >> when they start aski

preet bharara and christine todd itman, first you, mr. bharara, wh would be the first thing that you want to s redressed? the most important thing? >> five seconds? i don't want to prejudge that, we're looking at a lot of things. that's why we have the task force. to the governor. >> governor, will you lay your cards on the line? what is the most important thing right now? >> i think the independence of the judiciary and people's trust in the independence of the judiciary and law enforcement, if those two things get severely eroded, we're in real trouble. >> thank you both very much indeed for joining me, governored to whitman and preet bharara. thank you so much for being in the studio. >>> as we said, for the first time, the trump administration has agreed to slap sanctions on russian individuals today for election med ling, including all those indicted in robert mueller's investigation. it also joined with france, germany and the uk to denounce the chemical attacks and nerve agent attack onner sergei skri and his daughter julia. russia

he does not have the power to do this under labour's rules but urge christine shawcroft ago.y. who thinks that ifjeremy corbyn didn't said that she should stand down, that it wouldn't happen? nobody. you know, this is about action. we've had enough letters, enough words to paper nelson's column. you know, if people are going to believe us as a party, we need to start following through on that and doing things. what was also interesting is the person in question christine shawcroft has posted twice on facebook today. initially her facebook today. initially her facebook posts said very clearly that she was not somebody who supported holocaust and eyes, but she was suggesting that the whole thing was got up to have a go at jeremy corbyn. that would tend to suggest that his supporters are not taking the underlying problem of anti—semitism seriously. she posted again and that reference had been deleted. but she is still arguing strongly that she has not herself than anything offensive, she said she made a mistake by not looking at evidence. and secondly, she is saying that she wil

. >> part of where we come to pathways was christine, her passion and dedication that she gave to us veterans. we knew these ladies. they worked with us. we'd given them money. we'd made fundraisers. because of the great work she's doing, their doing for our veterans which so many people are not doing. >> reporter: the three women remembered tonight are christine loeber, dr. jennifer golick and dr. jennifer gonzales. they were victims of the march 9th hostage situation at pathway home, a program developed to help military veterans suffering from ptsd and traumatic brain injuries. we've also seen groups of other employees from va home and hospitals here tonight wearing turquoise shirts that say three brave women to honor those victims. live in yountville, katie nielsen, kpix5. >> let's listen into this memorial where the mayor of yountville is speaking right now. let's listen in. >> it took more than clinical expertise, fortitude, intelligence and experience in mental health treatment. it took their humanness, listening, understanding, authenticity and their compassion. it also took c

christine shawcroft has previously apologised, saying she was not aware of the nature of this facebookuspension. but in the further development, a social media post has appeared today apparently from christine shawcroft‘s account, reiterating that she thinks she made a mistake but also saying, this whole row has been stirred up to attackjeremy. now, that is a view that some people have but it could exacerbate the situation after we've had these 39 labour mps and peers writing tojeremy corbyn, calling for her suspension, calling for her to be removed from the national executive body. in their letter tojeremy corbyn, they wrote, you pledged this week to be an ally in the fight against anti—semitism. this action would represent an initial step in honouring that commitment. jeremy corbyn has over the past week tried to show he is reaching out to the jewish community, he's done so again today, saying in a passover message, in the fight against anti—semitism, i am your ally and i always will be. but i've spoken to a signatory of last night's letter, they say they have had a lot of warm words

>> reporter: good morning, christine and dave. it would not be welcome because ultimately it throws a wrench in the works which is the possible meeting with kim jong un and donald trump. south korea brought trade into the equation since coming into the office. we asked the trade minister in south korea and they tried to brush it off. they cannot comment every time president trump makes remarks. of course, the issue of troops on the border is a national security issue to the south koreans. they are in ongoing negotiations with the u.s. about who pays for what and that is a separate issue. it is conflated by president trump. the foreign minister in south korea is en route to d.c. right now. she will meet with key officials. not meeting with rex tillerson as he is no longer secretary of state. >> you can sure bet north korea and kim jong un will get word of these remarks. david live for us in seoul. thank you. >> problems and disagreements are worked out by diplomats. there is no ambassador to seoul and transition is under way at the
