nikki haley, the u.s. ambassador, calls this the most stringent set of sanctions on any country in a generation. we have heard tough talk from recent different administrations that the north korean sanctions are the toughest ever, but nothing seems to deter pyongyang and the interest to get missiles that threaten the east coast of the united states. she says there's more to do. >> that's right. >> the north korean threat has not left us. it is rapidly growing more dangerous. we have seen two icbms fired in the last month. further action is required. the united states is taking and will continue to take prudent defensive measures to protect ourselves and our allies. our annual joint military exercises for instance are transparent and defense oriented. they have been carried out regularly and openly. for nearly 40 years. >> it was just a week ago ambassador haley declined to have an emergency security council meeting after the latest icbm launch saying there's no use for just words. she seems pleased that th

the talk by nickki haley, an ambassador haley was tough, but it is what you would expect, because president trump has said that it is one of the biggest threats and that president obama did not act forcefully enough, and he would push china to act, and they are following through on that. >> and to you, kevin, what may have happen ed ed in the backgr to get this to work? because we are not absent of the reality of the relationships that i just brought up between russia, and the united states, and china and the united states, and just within the last week or so where the semantics were not positive, but here in the united nations, getting something done. >> richard, it was days ago when the secretary of state rex tillerson said that china and russia were economic enablers of the north korean dictatorship, and regime. you saw a clear description from am b ambassador haley in which she said that the north e krooians were using their military nuclear weapons program to grow the economy and not take care of the millions of workers within their own country. and you saw from ambassador haley, a sig

. >> nikki haley warning that north korea could raise or should raise pressure from all around the world, live from washington the breaking details. >> reporter: more pressure on pyongyang as north korea vows retaliation for sanctions amounting to $1 billion on their export revenues, the heaviest level against the rogue nation and a diplomatic when at the united nations led by ambassador nikki haley who said she had to twist a lot of arms to get there. >> had to twist a lot of times when it came to china and russia. >> what we had to show them is more icbm tests before we do something and the fact that every dollar north korea government gets are not feeding their people with that, they are using it towards a nuclear weapon system so we had to stop it. >> the response is troubling, north korea showing no signs of halting its march toward icbm missiles capable of striking the united states with nuclear weapons and spy satellites detecting two anti-cruise missiles on a patrol boat, clear sign they are not listening. retired general jack king says they would be unwise to. >> they may be mov

you haired nikki haley tonight.hose were sentiments that came right out of the core heart of conservative republican foreign policy but not everybody in the administration. deign contain i have about 20 seconds left. i'm going to give them to mary anne. what do you make of that? is that a distraction that will hurt the president? >> it is but james rosen reported earlier tonight that donald trump gave him a vote of confidence. but i think the bigger thing going forward is that donald trump continues to play to his base and that's going to hurt anybody. >> dana: all right, the three of you. you are amazing. thank you so much for being here day 200. we'll be right back. when my doctor told me i have age-related macular degeneration, amd, he told me to look at this grid every day. and we came up with a plan to help reduce my risk of progression, including preservision areds 2. my doctor said preservision areds 2 has the exact nutrient formula the national eye institute recommends to help reduce the risk of progression

ambassador, to the united nations, nikk nikki haley, and u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson right now in bedminster, new jersey, we're monitoring that meeting for you, and we'll bring you the latest we bring in former u.n. -- u.s. ambassador to united nations, john bolton. thank you for joining us, what do you think is happening in that meeting? >> well, it could this is coconfer with president on what made happen under various condingenceys dealing with north korea if there were the use of military force, whether north korea attacked us or whether we went afte after a perspective missile launch, we would see north korea bring it to security counsel council we might want to take it on the security council first. liz: china said it would stay neutral if north korea launches first and u.s. retaliates, but china saying that, they would step in if they try to change the peninsula. >> this is interesting, this is not an official statement from the government but this newspaper is owned by the government, interesting, thing is if north korea attack

ambassador to the united nations nikki haley. ambassador haley, wonderful to see you.hank you very much for joining us. >> thanks. it is a new day at the u.n. >> it is a new day at the u.n. tell us the impact of this. and why this resolution was so important? >> it's an incredibly strong day for the united states. it's a strong day for the united nations. it's a strong day for the international community that wanted to send a message to the north korean regime that we were done. the time of talking is over. we made that very clear on monday. and the time for action has happened, and now it is time for north korea to decide where they are going to go. what you saw the security council do was a unanimous vote that basically banned coal, lead, lead ore, iron, iron ore, banned seafood, stopped all new joint ventures, stopped expansions of joint ventures, had multiple sanctions designations, including, you know, a primary bank that north korea does business with, hit very very hard. a third of their trade exports have been hit. and we gave them basically a kick in the gut w

nikki haley was asked about that report on fox that the president retweeted.ere's what she said. >> i can't talk about anything that's classified. if that's in the newspaper, that's a shame. it's incredibly dangerous when things get out into the press like that. you're not only just getting a scoop on something, you're playing with people's lives. >> as i said, cnn has not confirmed that fox reporting. barbara starr is with us at the pentagon. nikki haley said incredibly dangerous and a shame it's out in the media, but the president put it out there more. >> he gets to tweet what he wants, but let me take a little different take and discuss some of the substance at hand. this is all about an anti-ship miism. i don't want to geek out, but it's important to understand what the president is talking about. it's very different than the bligsic intercontinental missiles that pose a direct threat to the united states, south korea and japan. these are missiles that go on ships and basically defend coast did not lines or make atab shipping at sea. the new yorkance typi

ambassador had to say, nikki haley.his is after the vote that took place from last weekend, where you noted, 15-0 the un security council voted to impose new sanctions on north korea. >> today, the full security council has come together to put the north korean dictator on notice. this time, the council has matched it to words and actions. the resolution we have passed is a strong, united step toward holding north korea accountable for its behavior. today, the council increased the penalty of missile activity to a whole new level. north korea's year responsible and careless acts have proven to be costly to the regime. this resolution is the single largest economic sanctions package ever leveled against the north korean regime. the price the north korean leadership will pay for its continued missile development will be the loss of one third of its exports and hard currency. this is the most stringent set of sanctions on any country in a generation. these sanctions will cut deep and in doing so will give the north korean

so they can only be for haley? of course not. haley isn't the only hottie living here. i washed the car in my cheer shorts the other day. i definitely felt eyes on me. has it ever occurred to you that those flowers could be for me? - what do you mean? - i mean, like, from my boyfriend. - what? - you have a boyfriend? and you thought my thing was crazy. [laughs] ♪

there's nikki haley. ann guerin covers foreign policy and politics and has been writing specifically about north korea's response to the sanctions. good morning. listen, when you look at the penalties here, they are the toughest we've seen to date, and we of got the approval of china and russia. symbolically, that's a big deal, but does it actually hold any weight when you think about north korea and who runs that country? >> well, stephanie, i think it's important to separate out the difference between the symbolic effect of these sanctions and the practical effect. the symbolic effect is actually quite significant. we have china negotiating the terms of these sanctions right alongside the united states. and that sends a powerful message to north korea, which does 90% of its economic activity with china. and beyond that, china acts as a sort of diplomatic and security protector for north korea. it's really their buffer to the world, the filter through which north korean money and any kind of diplomatic a

>> that's nikki haley's view. the ultimate view is the president and the president is very clear on the record what he thinks about climate change. >> i don't think he has been very clear -- >> as clear as he can be. >> it can definitely force the president's hand. his own government is pressing this report. don't forget the timing. this is coming at the start of hurricane season. if we had a major hurricane in this country in the next month or so, that could even make that more powerful. >> that's going to tick donald trump off because he'll see that people want to use this report as a leverage against him if something like that happens and, of course, you know, he's not going to be happy about that. >> dthis draft did not leak accidentally. this came out for a reason because somebody was afraid it wouldn't come out during the regular channel. >> michael stele, always a pleasure. thank you. a belated thank you for kristen welker. >>> next up, head to ohio to talk health care where 20 counties were at risk of havi

nikki haley saying it is a step. i don't think anyone feels this round is going to curtail north korea's habit of launching missiles. ana? >> we also heard from the national security adviser mcmaster this morning, also addressing the north korean threat. what we heard from nikki haley is further action is required. we heard that in the remarks. we heard mcmaster this morning talking about all options being on the table, including a military option. >> that's right. i mean, i think ultimately, nobody wants, ana, to launch any type of military action because the consequences against south korea, against u.s. troops in the region, would really be devastating. so i think what the u.s. is doing is wanting to show a lot of military resolve. letting the north koreans know there is very credible nuclear option -- military option, and that president trump not going to stand for north krae yorea te a nuclear weapon that can hit the continental united states. at the same time, you have secretary of state rex tillerson on his wa

mcmaster and nikki haley. no doubt north korea will be the focus of the meetings. the attacks on kim jong-un leaked out that north korea had the ability to miniaturize nuclear we pops and put them on missiles. after that, the president doubled down on the fire and fury comment saying he didn't go far enough. the president said the military is locked and loaded. hopefully kim jong-un will find another path. earlier today, north korea released a statement of its own considering the u.s. no more than a lump which we can beat to a jelly at any time. it's important to note, there's no indications that the president is planning to make any kind of preemptive military strike against north korea, which would immediately put seoul at risk and the millions of people that live there along with many americans. so right now, it appears to be a back and forth between these two leaders, a verbal and written back and forth. we'll have to way to see what happens next. >> thanks, rick. the u.s. pacific command tweeting out that the u.s. b-1 b bombers are ready to go if called upon.

ambassador nikki haley. us from the white house this morning, ambassador haley, thanks for joining us this morning. >> good morning. >> the president said we will win in afghanistan. but he didn't define victory, so can you define victory specifically for the american people? >> well, i think what we're trying to do is defeat terrorism of all kinds and i think in afghanistan what it's become is a safe haven, but it's not just about afghanistan, it's also about the region and so i think what you're seeing the president and the generals do is basically say, look, let's stay focused. let's look at the terrorist attacks that we've -- that could happen on american soil but let's go after terrorism and i think what you heard last night was strong, it was solid. i was in the national security council meetings which there were multiple meetings. i saw the process of where it went. i saw this president ask a lot of questions and i saw him want to go in a different direction and i think it's a direction that's good fo

ambassador nikki haley has followed up over the weekend saying the u.s.is prepared to do whatever it takes. and i think we need to send that message. and i think while oftentimes many people accuse the president of being unpredictable, he was pretty clear today. and when you're dealing with a madman like kim jong-un, it's important for us to be clear and decisive on this. >> clear and decisive and precise, though. as senator risch pointed out to anderson, the president today said if you make another threat, essentially we'll use nuclear weapons against you. the north koreans made another threat. now, maybe you can interpret that to mean a physical threat against the united states, he's got wiggle room, those of us who play with words know that. but i was troubled. i think ambassador haley is doing a fine job. i think the sanctions we got passed are terrific. i think secretary tillerson talking about negotiating. he's got a good team. i'm not reflexively bashing my president here. but he's got to be careful how he uses words. he's doing this, a very defens

we had nikki haley on, ambassador to the u.n.ow obviously and i asked her if afghanistan is so treacherous, if pakistan is so unstable, why aren't they on the travel ban? and her answer was well we know enough about the people who want to come to america from those two places that they didn't need to be on it. that seems to be a real eye popper to are me. for you, steve? >> it is interesting see how the government selected certain nations for a travel ban and left others off and you wonder whether or not our intelligence is that robust inpakistan, for opposed to some of the other countries. it's interesting to see how we approach those things. in afghanistan, we heard the president talk briefly about leveraging pakistan, using the diplomatic component of national power. what we didn't hear anything about is kind of the larger, in my view, presence of for example china, who share a border with pakistan and shares a border with afghanistan, and where was the mention of china, how we use china to create some calm in the region. i di

ambassador haley had apparently made over the weekend. and so, we've seen this before. tillerson says one thing about what's going on in the middle east, you know, as we saw with recent divisions there, and then the president comes out and attacks these countries. we saw that just recently. and so, again, erin, he needs to be level-headed right now. he needs to be consistent. and unpredictability is an okay tactic, as long as it's part of an overall strategy. and right now i'm not convinced that there is an overall strategy. >> do you, congressman, believe, from what the president said today, that he is willing, he is prepared, to use a nuclear weapon? >> yes. i believe that he is somebody who would prefer to use the military over diplomacy, because it's easier and he hasn't shown a willingness to engage even our friends. that's what concerns me. he has a lot of smart people who are working for him. and a number of experienced generals, a number of foreign policy experts. he should listen to them. also, erin, he should appoint an ambassador to south korea. we had a very

larry and thanks the kind introduction for ambassador haley to get the u.n. sanctions we've been trying to get sanctions all through the obama years and were unable to do so so it's a victory for ambassador haley for rex tillerson the secretary of state and for president trump to to bring together all these countries including the russians the chinese who have a veto on. supt curity council and get them to sign on with the sanctions so big victory for the trump administration and i'm proud of the baster haley's and her work out of the un they've been vetoing it previously they had been and what change then i think the. a list of missile test which are it would show that north korea now may have the opportunity to hit not only the midwest of the united states the west coast but also china and parts of russia with their ballistic missiles this is becoming a very serious crisis and i think even the chinese and russians have realized that they'd like to have north korea on a chain like a pit bull to keep us busy but i think they're realizing that the dog maybe ra

security council nikki haley said don't anyone be fooled into thinking this is enough.t's not even close she said. more action is required. but the action won't come here. it will be a lot of talk but north korea will be left in no doubt number one that it's isolated and number two that 26 countries want it to stop being provocative. >> bill neely, thank you so much for that report. >>> a search and rescue mission for three missing u.s. marines has been suspended. it was conducted off the east coast of australia where an osprey aircraft crashed yesterday. it hit the deck of a ship during landing and crashed into the bay. 26 other marines were rescued. >>> coming up why people lined up at an oklahoma health care clinic yesterday. which is such a dad thing to do. after he gave his name the woman from capital one said "mr. garner, are you related to jennifer?" kind of joking with him. and my dad was so proud to tell her, "as a matter of fact, she is my middle daughter". so now dad has the venture card, he's earning his double miles, and he made a friend at the company. can

nikki haley was at the cameras at the u.n. and i want to play for you what she had to say. >> north korea's been a situation we haven't taken our eye off of at all since the last icbm testing. we'll continue to stay strong and aggressive. we're going to continue to hope that they do want to come to the

train to nikki haley kelly maria bartiromo on "sunday morning futures" that north korea has the opportunityo do the right thing. >> the united states will respond based on north korea's actions. we hope they don't do anything further in they stop the reckless activity. we hope we don't have to do anything. all options have been on the table and continue to be on the table. cheryl: secretary of state rex tillerson discussing the situation in north korea and a conference that happened in the philippines. >> the world is also expressing the view to china and russia that we do have an expectation that you will do everything you possibly can to help north korea understand the reality as well and bring it to the negotiating table. lauren: north korea sharp enough for new sanctions to china. the largest and most economic partner after chinese diplomats urge pyongyang to stop missile tests. lauren: the nation for the sanctions and we hope they do. the ongoing investigation by robert mueller into meddling in the presidential election was a major topic yesterday deputy attorney general rod rosenstein

nikki haley, mike pence. what you said earlier is important pap signaling to the republican party and two people, if president trump were not running for re-election, we can argue would most certainly be, heavily eyeing their prospects. so -- it's a woman. it's a man. >> a woman of color. >> a woman of color represented different swaths of the country geographically in terms. republican party but very much republican party names and faces. this is an effort to rally the party together. to keep the establishment and the party as supportive of the president as possible. while he continues to figure out how to message to the base in way more politically acceptable. >> constant balancing act from the white house and republican party members. we'll continue to see it. >>> more ahead, up next, trump back on the road for a rally tonight in arizona. usually an off-teleprompter ritual for the president. will he stay on message? hmm? is that the rest of our food? what? no. how come you have cheese in your beard? becaus

the morning, they have little doorstep and i was -- little george stephanopoulos talking to nikki haley. he talked about the speech i made last night, believe it or not, it got great reviews. it was with soldiers, we were somber, we were truthful, we were saying things, he talked

nikki haley says the reactions are a gut punch to north korea. i spoke with her just a short time ago. you called this the single largest economics sanctions package leveled against north korea. do you expect a dirchltd result from these sanctions? >> well, thank you very much for having me. first of all, it's a new day at ton. this was a day of action and we stopped all the talk and we said to north korea they have to stop their irresponsible actions. we wanted to make sure north korea understands what we're talking about. this resolution is the strongest resolution with sanction measures that we've seen in a generation. it will go after a third of north korea's hard currency, it bans coal, it bans iron, it bans additional laborers that they can send overseas. it has quite huge implications to north korea. we hope they take notice, and we'll see what happens. >> again, the question is do you expect a different result from north korea because we know time and again sanctions have been imposed, sanctions have been increased, and yet north korea's

he's, some of his surrogates including nikki haley were asked about that this morning. this is how she explained the president's change of approach. >> i think that really shows the signs of a president. you know? one thing is to be a candidate and talk about what you think. the other thing is to be a president and talk about what you know. the facts were put on the table. and he asked all the right questions, and you're going to see a very different approach. our enemies are no longer going to know what our timeline is, no longer going to know where we are and how many troops and all of those things. >> but, margaret, the, some of -- president trump's allies in the past are not so happy.

haley holland tonight. we had encouraged her to stay safe, but she could no longer stay in her home. >>> eve within the dire forecast warnings, the rain took millions in the houston area by surprise, falling so quickly, all through the night. this is a stretch of memorial parkway yesterday. and today, less than 24 hours later, the parkway now a river. flood waters threatening home and high-rises. here's victor oquendo. he and his team among those rushing to stay ahead of the rising water. >> reporter: tonight, the total devastation, evident from the sky. every neighborhood within sight, under water. but this life-threatening emergency first unfolding in the dead of night. >> anybody up there that wants to go? >> reporter: the houston police chief pulling people to safety, livestreaming from the flood zone. >> any kids? two kids, all right. you got the baby? >> reporter: our team, with a local police officer, witnessing firsthand this morning how fast that water rises. >> this is insane. >> reporter: within

nikki haley that speaking at the un security council a short while ago. well for more on that meeting we can cross now straights to new york where a correspondent daniel hoffman is standing by daniel festival. could this latest missile test carried out by north korea over japan. be the one that finally gets the un security council to really sit up and take action. well we're going to have to know really you know what comes out of this meeting to to really know if if this is the case. and as of now we obviously have very few details on the outcome of of this sir emergency meeting that was called. by japan south korea and and the united states at you know yesterday when we learned. that's the north korean regime sense this a new missile over japan and we rushed to the security council that the reporters at the un. and to have some reaction from the diplomats most of them were not even aware that as this event had happened so it was really a situation. of emergency this morning the american ambassador to the united nations nikki haley briefly talk to reporte

steve: all the questions for nikki haley.p in a little bit. 6:11 in new york city and jillian has other news going on. jillian: we have update on two stories we brought you yesterday. let's begin with this fox news alert. a nationwide manhunt coming to a yiewsm end. brandon powell escaped and dangerous sexual assault suspect found dead in the crawl space of his parent's home in rural, ohio. police say he shot himself as they closed. in powell escaped from a transport van friday after attacking a deputy. this comes as a desperate manhunt intensifies in missouri. police officers searching door to door for a man suspected of killing a rookie cop in cold blood. ian mccarthy is charged with murdering 37-year-old officer gary michael at a traffic stop. michael is an army veteran of living his dream of being a police officer. he leaves behind a wife and two stepsons. three marines aircraft crashed during a training exercise. have now been identified. you can see them on the screen right now, 26-year-old lieutenant benjamin cross of

that done by nikki haley the u.n. ambas deer for the united states. she addressed her fellow colleagues at the security counsel, got them onboard. most notably that china and russia agreed. this, of course, a reaction to the north korean regime's testing of intercontinental ballistic missiles and the threats they have made and the cyberrattling, if they will. nikki haley the ambassador was really front and center with this trying to make two points. toughness towards the leadership in north korea but a willingness to support the people of north korea and to try to work with them to resolve this. here's how ambassador haley expressed it. >> i think now north korea needs to step up. north korea has a variety of options. we are willing to deal with those options based on their actions. we are happy to talk with them, but they have to stop this reckless action in order for us to do that. >> this package of sanctions which blocks the north from exporting all kinds of goods, everything from coal to sea food, also limiting its ability to send abroad laborers

nikki haley talked about the recent u.n.anctions and said the message would be clear to north korean leader kim jong un. listen. >> this had to happen. we had to go after his hard currency. we had to stop him. how he responds, he is going to now have to think what's the end game? is he really going to come after the united states knowing what the united states can do back? he has got to make that calculation. he now has to decide that. >> and that briefing is expected to happen at 3:00 p.m. eastern, harris. and we have been told by the white house press pool that the white house chief of staff general kelly and kellyanne conway, counselor to the president, will be on hand. when that meeting is over, those 2 are expected to come to us to where all the reporters are gathered to give us debrief about the briefing that happened on the opioid crisis and hopefully we will get some reaction from them on what's happening right now with north korea. >> harris: well, and the news is moving so quickly with regard to north korea, laura.

ambassador to the united nations nikki haley said that this was the toughest set of measures against any country ever it does indeed look like that and it's also one of those cases where all countries members of the u.n. security council all fifteen members came together and voted unanimously even the countries which have not had. a stance as the united states when it comes to north korea such as russia and china in fact the russian envoy to the united nations mr actually said that they do want the north korean bit of the korean peninsula to be denuclearized but at the same time by adopting this resolution it also russia also wants these six party talks to continue on the peaceful solution to this matter also we've had reactions obviously from pyongyang which reacted with indignation said that there will be a righteous response according to the state agency to the new sanctions and also one of the officials quoted by the state agency in north korea said that if the united states things that it will be safe by imposing these sanctions against pyongyang it's a wrong assumption so clear

nikki haley on the importance of russia and china joined the u.s. on those sanctions. >> all of us should be concerned about what's happening right no now. north korea is concerned back, now they are seeing the international community standing with one voice, china didn't pull off, russia did and pull off, and all of the security council and the international community said that's a lot, you've got to stop it. the international community really laid on down the groundwork of saying we're not going to watch you do this anymore, now north korea has to respond. and yes, they're going to say, they're going to threaten, they're going to do all of these things, but we're not going to run scared. >> melissa: greg palkot is live from our london bureau. speak out talk and action on both sides of this issue come out let's start with secretary of state to listen. he is right now in asia, he's been in thailand moving on to malaysia trying to drum up support for those strong new security council sanctions. they ban a range of exploit. both of those countries are

haley? thus far in the project? >> i would not want to give you an exact number ma'am but it has been a significant investment. much of that has been our professional staff and individuals that sit behind me. the individual engineer that actually build our facility originally in the biometric facility that you are well aware of was brought into d.c. to lead the project. he is sitting behind me here. we have invested a lot of educational resources on this. now at the same time, the $500 million we have sitting in the account, the appropriations. we hope that this project will take on a similar anatomy like the building where we were able to instrumentally bring those funds in and at the point of the funding was available, we were able to move forward with that capital investment.>> i was going to mention that with senator ben cardin i do not want to mention a great fbi facility have west virginia.i did not want to throw another location into the next but we do enjoy and it is a wonderful facility.we are very pleased

haley, mr. wise. >> thank you for the opportunity to discuss our work on gsa's efforts to consolidate fbi's headquarters and large, real property projects. i will discuss three points. in november 2011, we reported over the preceding decade, they determined the hoover building no longer supported the fbi's security space and building condition requirements. due to the lack of space, fbi functions have been dispersed in various an exs around the region and other locations. in the 2011 report, we also noted that the condition of the hoover building was deteriorating and gsa assessments identify significant needs. in 2017, we reported that several fbi field offices are in foreign entities and that would give added risk. we considered exchanging the hoover building in exchange for a new building in one of three locatio locations in maryland and virginia. gsa canceled procurement because according to gsa and fbi officials, they lacked the funding needed to proceed. they would continue to work togethe

lauren: nikki haley can u.s.mbassador to the united nations told dana perino on the story that america has the upper hand here. >> it was a gut punch to north korea to let them know the international community is tired of it and will fight back. every dollar of revenue that the north korean government gets come and they are not prepared people with. going up to the sanctions going up to their ability to build these missiles and something that needed to happen. lauren: north korea remained at the top of the president's agenda appeared more on that now from adam shapiro. >> president trump is a new jersey in late monday afternoon he treated the fake news media will not talk about the importance of the united nations security council 15-02 the intentions of north korea. sanctions on north korea getting a great deal of attention. sebastian cork outcome advisor to the president was on trish regan had this to say. >> we managed to convince everybody and now we shall see. we shall see what happens. very simple signals.

credit to ambassador haley for getting it through. north korea may be able to implement some of these -- skmin in a has been cutting down on north korean coal. the real thing is, ana, these other countries may follow through on these sanctions, in addition to these sectors that we're talking about, it's about a billion dollars of north korean export income. china has 90% of north korean trade. so china needs to do even more than this, it remains to be seen this is what the pressure on china has been about. we have to see how much more they're ready to do, it's unclear whether this will be enough as you say. >> before you go, rex tillerson met with his russian counterpart for the first time since president trump signed off on those russia sanctions. what do we know about that meeting? >> it was a really -- it seemed to be a tough meeting, of course, they have things to talk about. they have this north korea issue. they have to talk about syria, they have to talk about ukraine, this is the first time the leaders have met since those san

nikki haley in the u.n. security.clear where it's coming from, wanting to change the subject. but some of the subject changing steps on the message that he wants to get out which is not unusual for the white house. >> he's going after democratic senator blumenthal in this particular case and the news media, but he's not going against his fellow republicans. >> right. it's a very low bar, i think. we're like, wow, it's a great day if he hasn't attacked someone from his own party. you know, i think his use of twitter today is a perfect example of how you do not use twitter. he has 35 million followers on twitter. even if a tenth of them were able to see his tweets, should he not use that medium to try to get his policy goals done, whether that is to try to get tax reform done? maybe he should have used twitter in a more strategic way during the health care vote to try to get people, to try to convince those like lisa murkowski or susan collins or john mccain to support the health care bill. instead he uses it as a weapo
