neither he nor sean spicer nor kelly kellyanne conway have not answered the question. the idea that we need to ask the president ourselves, we'd love to. we'd ask him about his views on global warming and the russian investigation because on the latter sean spicer has a new tactic, referring all questions to that subject to the president's outside counsel. so, now on two of the most pressing issues facing the administration, the new line is basically, don't ask us. jim acosta was involved in one of those questions and nonanswer exchanges. he's joining us now. it seems like no one in the white house wants to answer whether the president believes in climate change. >> reporter: that's right. you'd think we were asking for the nuclear codes today in the briefing room. we were trying to ask if the president believes that climate change is a hoax. we've seen this pattern before. when the president clings to a false belief that, for example, president obama was not born in the united states or that president obama wire-tapped him at trump tower or climate change is a hoax, i

problems are self—inflicted and a lot of the people who have come out and spoken for him today, kelly and conway't pay attention to his twitter feed. but he shouldn't pay attention to his twitterfeed. but he hasn't shouldn't pay attention to his twitter feed. but he hasn't given an interview for three weeks so we will pay attention to it. we should perhaps stop calling them presidential tweets and we should call them presidential statements. i'm joined now by robin wright. thank you for coming in to join me. when you look at what has happened in london and you look at the scale of the response to it, what are we learning about how we are going to deal with this threat in europe because it's not going away, is it? no. there are a number of trends that have emerged. you see the proliferation of amateurs. they are self recruited, self empowered, self weaponised. they are not the whole core experience professionals like the plo or the red b great. it's very difficult for law enforcement to try to keep track of them. it makes it more difficult. there is also the fact that whilst terrorism was far mor

kelly and conway said the media should stop obsessing about donald trump's tweets. take too seriously what the president of the usa is saying. but one thing to be taken with utmost seriousness is the state visit of the president to britain later this year, an invitation extended when to reason may was that the white house. an invitation that might be a little challenging diplomatically. —— when it to reason may was at the white house. the first funeral of a victim of the manchester arena attack has taken place on the island of barra in the pouter hebrides. aylie macleod attended the ariana grande concert with herfriend, 15—year—old laura macintyre, who remains in hospital. as a mark of respect, the local school and businesses bagpipes. in this small island community, they said farewell. eilidh macleod's father at the head of a dignified procession, family close behind as the coffin was passed gently from hand—to—hand. as a gaelic song praising a fair—haired girl from barra played on the teenager's beloved pipes. her family wanted eilidh's funeral to be a celebration

kelly and conway is here. questions surrounding whether president trump is actually under investigation or not with but a special counsel looking into the alleged meddling. the president tweeted this. yesterday a member of the president's legal team contradicted that. the president has not been notified by anyone that he is under investigation. it alleged that five unnamed sources linked to the washington post that the president was in fact under investigation. there has been no notification of any investigation. nothing has changed. judge, good to see. good morning. i think it's a little bit in the weeds because if you have the former fbi director making a case for attempted obstruction of justice or even bribery against the president of the united states and making it in a fairly forceful way. that is certainly enough to trigger an investigation. i think both sides are right. i think the president is being investigated but he has is not been a target. they plan to bring charges against you. so when he says h

kelly anenn ann kon conway. >> jim comey, a career prosecutor, five years as the fbi director was so stunned that he had a one on one private conversation with the president of the united states he didn't know how to report this to the attorney general, the white house counsel or the associated attorney general to say i'm concerned? >> that's one of the talking points we might hear from president trump when we talk to him a little later on today. he's going to hold a joint press conference with the president of romania. he was up tweeting today which was striking. think about yesterday. we didn't hear from him. on twitter he got shouted questions. didn't respond. this is what he had to say this morning on twitter despite so many false statements and lies, total complete vindication and wow, comey is a leaker. the question for the president is how can comey be a liar and also vindicate him. maybe we'll get a question today. >> we'll be trying. kristen, stick around for the rest of the block. but i want to go to pete williams in our d.c. bureau. you saw the president say it, he believe

even george conway, a prominent conservative lawyer and the husband of white house adviser kelly aanne conway is suggestin the president's comments could significantly hurt his case. he writes, quote, these tweets may make some people feel better, but they certainly won't help the office of the slis tore john get five votes in the supreme court. again, that's kelly ann's husband george. he went on to clarify, in response to inquiries, i still very strongly support potus, his administration, policies and executive order and, of course, my wonderful wife, which is why i said what i said this morning. every sensible lawyer in the white house office and every political appointee at doj would agree with me. the point cannot be stressed enough, tweets on legal matters seriously undermine the administration's agenda. potus and those who support him as i do need to support that point and not be shy about it. >> there's the interesting layer of george conway being kellyanne conway's husband, they've used donald trump's own words to strike down the travel ban. the supreme court could be watching

kelly on -- kellyanne conway sent out a tweet an hour ago, "it was business as usual at the white house today. the president posted a meeting. amazing speech at faith and freedom." that group was meeting in washington. we did carry that speech on c-span. you can watch it on c-span.com. he did not reference james comey in the speech at all. you can watch it online at c-span.org. we are going to marry -- mary, democrat from new york. what is your reaction? caller: my head is spinning. first of all, i think about leadership. positionso have small of leadership throughout my career and what i know about leadership is you have to lead with a vision, the people that you lead have to trust you. you have to be consistent and honest and unwavering. you have to be able to be any position to make hard decisions and it is really hard because not everybody will like what you say. i have watched parts, not all of it, but parts of the testimony today and i think james comey has done an incredible job. he has been, in my opinion, very candid, very honest. he has reflected on his responses, questions an

it's neither productive nor patriotic -- >> kelly yawn, as you know -- >> the toxicity is over the top. >> now, conwayt is simply using his social media platform to connect with the american people. many critics of the president saying that his rant is beneath the dignity of the office. and look at today's "daily news." front page. it shows an eagle, head bowed, and the headline "humiliation." >>> on a separate note, one of the year's busiest travel days, and protesters are expected back at sfo this morning to demonstrate against the president's revised travel ban. that ban has not even been in effect for a full day. already, though, there is a lawsuit filed against it. abc7 news reporter janine de la vega is live at sfo this morning. janine? >> reporter: jessica, under the new guidelines, you need to have a bona fide relationship with someone from the u.s. in order to enter. well, hawaii's attorney general just filed an emergency motion asking for clarification. there have been protests here at sfo in the international terminal for people rallying against president trump's travel ban, and it prohibit

kellyanne conway says at the supreme court, the justices are going to put more weight on what the president says as opposed to what anybody who works for the president says including secretary kelly who's trying to be a good soldier and spin this in a way favorable to the president. if they say don't -- george conway, these tweets may make some people better but they won't help get five votes in the supreme court of the united states which is what actually matters. selli kellyanne conway's husband, an attorney here in washington. >> and someone who was up for and almost took a job in that office in fact. so he knows -- he he's a very well reported litigate or. what the president is doing is making life more difficult for his own administration on multiple levels. this is only one of the issues where he's doing that. all of the courts that have considered the, to use the president's word, travel ban so far have taken into account the president's campaign rhetoric. what jeff sessions said on the campaign trail, intent matters when the court looks at how to define this action and the courts are going to take into account the president's intent. he's in a lot of ways digging himself

. >> kelly, real i quickly on that question that ken just raised. i saw kellyanne conway with some glib -- this team is becoming notorious for being crummy winners but do they take this seriously? do they worry about how they're perceived by foreign leaders abroad or is this who they are, deal with it? >> i think they make a distinction about the relationship that the president has with the leaders and that's more of a face-to-face bond and they view the twitter statement flow of the president as something that is much more in his sort branding, provocative marketing sense. they would draw a distinction between the kinds of personal bochds the -- bonds the president has begun to make with specific leaders. if those leaders view it differently, that might be a case by case scenario. but they have begun to view his tweet storms or tweet sort of trouble spots as something that can be dealt with and explained away even though we just outlined how problemic it can be and can trigger unwanted consequences. this has not yet come into the realm where they have been terrified by a

kelly this morning, what do you do? >> well, i don't think he's going to go on television like sebastian gorka and kellyanne conway and say everyone's so obsessed in the media with the president's tweets, which actually say what he's feeling and what he's thinking, and it's designed to bypass his own staff in the media and get straight to the voters for the real deal. i don't think general kelly's going to go on and say, this is just social media and people should just discard it and only pay attention to what we put on paper on the official letterhead of any cabinet within the administration. so, if i were him, i'd lay low for a few more days. this is not the first time the president's done this. he does this all the time. he asked jeff sessions, who was recused at the time from the russia investigation, to join him at a meeting with his deputy attorney general, rod rosenstein, to come up with a memo describing why james comey, the then fbi director, could no longer function in that position. he sent out his staff to talk about why. it was the strong recommendation of rod rosenstein that led to the firing of comey. vice
