kristin fisher, fox news.>>> semper cisco mayor, atley was among many who were taken aback. >> he calls it discriminatory at the core. >> his tweet has yet again, so un-american in so many ways. to suggest that transgender people cannot serve in our armed forces and protect our country like anybody else, is ridiculous and consistent with the kind of tweets we see from this president. you do not know what he is thinking. he is just reacting to a constituent that he thinks represents the value of americans. it is not american. >> ed lee said the city of san francisco will continue to support the transgender community. likely puts people in fear of what could be coming next. >>, -- calvinist senator said the presidents decision to force transgender people out of the military it discriminatory, wrong and un-american. we should not punish or turn away courageous people who are willing to risk their lives to serve our country. we should embrace them. >>> the presidents announcement has drawn praise and criticism. how do people living in the military communities feel about it ? >> are rod rock

. >> juan: joining us now with reaction from the president today, kristin fisher. >> president trumpg his son by saying he applauds his transparency. that transparency just handed investigators on capitol hill and in a special counsel's office of the whole mountain of new evidence. here's the exchange that's probably the most problematic from the white house. it's from a british tabloid publicist who put up the meeting between trump, jr., and that infamous russian attorney. this is high-level and sensitive information but it is government support for mr. trump. it would incriminate hillary and her dealings with russia and will be very useful to your father. trump junior responded by saying if it's what you say, i love it. especially later in this summer. obviously closer to the election. at that has democrats like senator tim kaine using word like perjury and even treason. trump junior says tonight he thought this meeting was just your routine opposition research and that his father, president trump, knew nothing about it. wallin. >> juan: kristin, thank you so much. that was terrifi

today the vice president traveling in eastern europe told kristin fisher traveling with him not he expects the president to sign this sanctions bill. >> do you anticipate the president to sign the russian sanctions bill while year-over-year? and if so, how will that bolster the message? >> the president has made it very clear. the russians destabilizing activities and rogue regimes activities in ukraine are unacceptable. the president made it very clear that very soon he will sign the sanctions from the congress to the united states to reinforce that. but at the same time as we make our intentions clear, we expect russian behavior to change. >> also, this new russia crisis right now, yesterday the president re-tweeted this. and the president headed in other words, russia was against trump in the election and why not? i want strong military and low oil prices. witchhunts. this all has a lot of echoes of tensions, not cold war collision eric. >> at 755 diplomats, 20 times more than minimum diplomats of president obama expelled from the us in december. do you remember that? we expelled 35 at

passed this new russia sanctions bill, and today in astonia, vice president pence said to our kristin fisher accompanying him on the trip that he expects the president to sign that bill. >> the president's made it very clear that russia's destabilizing activity, support for rogue regimes, activities in ukraine are unacceptable. the president made it very clear, very soon, he will sign the sanctions from the congress of the united states to reinforce that. >> reporter: and there is something else which plays potentially into this new russia crisis. yesterday, the president retweeted this from fox and friends -- and then the president added this -- . >> reporter: that may have potentially rubbed putin the wrong way. the threat of increased u.s. oil and gas exports to europe is a real threat to russia which depends very, very heavily on own gas and oil imports to europe, to flag up its own sagging export industry. we'll keep an eye on this, this is not a good sign in relations with russia. certainly doesn't jive with russian collusion conspiracy to this point. arthel: so much more to be reveale

kristin fisher is live with the press briefing, where it was taking place off camera. kristen, president trump's attorneys about donald trump, jr., involving the secret service. how is that plane out? >> personal attorney seem to focus the blame on the secret service, saying, why did the secret service not bet these russians to keep this meeting from happening? here it is, the clip. >> i wonder why the secret service, if this was nefarious, why did they let these people in. he had secret service protection at that point. that raises a question with me. >> in a rare move, the secret service is now weighing in by saying, president trump are then, candidate trumpet, he may have had secret service protection, but his son, donald trump, jr., did not. here's the statement that they put out just this morning. donald trump, jr., was not protected by the secret service in june, 2016, and thus, we would not have screened anyone he was meeting with. that is their defense, and melissa, i should point out the fact that the secret service is even putting out a statement shows you th

. >> kristin fisher has more from the site of today's dedication in norfolk virginia. >> the speech focus on two things first it was a salute to the sailors who will man this ship and to the nearly 9,000 ship builders who built it many of whom who were here today. second his speech was also a salute to the ship itself and what it means to the u.s. navy and our country. >> this ship is the deterrent that keeps us from having to fight in the first place, but this ship also ensures that if a fight does come, it will always end the same way. we will win, win, win. we will never lose. we will win. >> now, this is made in america week for the white house, and what better way to end it than with the commissioning of the largest and most sophisticated warship ever built. made entirely right here in virginia. so there's a lot about this carrier that president trump loves, but there's also a lot that he doesn't like. it was billions of dollars over budget. several years behind schedule. and it's still not finished. in fact, it won't actually be able to be deployed for a few more years, likely until

kristin fisher live in washington.now, campaign director for the center for american progress action fund. and katie, news editor for townhall.com and a fox news contributor. emily, let me start with you, obviously the egregious part of that is that there was coordination with a foreign government. >> the dnc has categorically denied this. the dnc research director said they have never been in contact and 4.5 years with any foreign government. that does not change the fact that what donald trump, jr., did was probably collusion, and admitted to it. he had first lied about it, it's important that we talk about the timeline. first he said the meeting never happened, then he said it was about adoption an end he said it was to get dirt, but it was actually find that it was to get dark. these are just things that we know about. time and time again from the trump administration people very, very close to the president meeting with russian officials and lying about it. >> martha: katie, what you think you might >> we know tha

kristin fisher is live at the white house with more. we think scaramucci will do that's different than sean spicer? >> today scaramucci said that he's going to focus on three things, first he really wants to reset the culture inside the white house's communications team. second, he wants to stop the leaks. and he's willing to take dramatic action to do just that. and then third, he really wants to work on focusing and refining the message that's coming out of this white house. now, just to double back on point number two, because this is a big one, if you look at what he's saying, he is saying that these staff shakeups may not be over yet. when he says he's willing to take dramatic action to stop the leaks, that could include firing some current white house staffers. >> if the leaks don't stop, i'm going to pair down the staff because it is not right, chris. i think it is not fair to the president. it is actually not fair to america or the people in the government. something's going on inside the white house that the president does not
