melania and ivanka will not go there with president trump. melania will go see the baby jesus hospital, which is a famous pediatric hospital just around the corner. managed by the holy see. she's expected to be there in about an hour. at the same time ivanka is expected to go to the community of santo giglio. that is a lay catholic community that is linked to e holy see. the pope is a big fan of this community. they offer charitable services to -- they have several charitable projects but the most popular right now is the humanitarian corridors that they offer to selected migrants that are camping out in place like leban lebanon, beirut, mainly syrian refugees. what they do primarily is they select families who are in particular need to get out of that camp and find a new life. it's not just christians. they also select muslim families. and what they do, they offer them safe passage into europe, into italy. they put them on a plane, take them here, and offer them a hou house, italian lessons and perhaps they help them find a job and integrate

melania trump took time out to visit children in a brussels hospital. she seemed at ease joining kids making paper flowers. she came bearing gifts for the kids and was presented with a handmade bouquet in return. before she left, she posed for a selfie with a new fan. it was melania's third solo visit to a children's hospital on the foreign tour. in italy, she spent time at a clinic at the vatican. this time, doing drawings with sick kids from 15 different countries. >> hospitals and children's issues are a very safe place for melania trump to be. she can do good and she can get little criticism for trying to help out the causes. >> melania was at her husband side for his meeting with pope francis. the black lace veil she wore sparked a debate on social media. she had worn no head covering in saudi arabia. her spokeswoman said melania herself, a catholic, was following vatican protocol. it was this moment, as melania arrived in israel, she was caught on camera apparently slapping away the president's hand. she appeared to again refused to take his hand

melania is not like michelle obama. smiling, not always appearing to be outwardly joyful but that doesn't moan she's not. she's one of the kindest and happiest people that i know. she's been modeling for years. she doesn't outwardly show this kind of joy. if she was smiling and happy, we might not be having this conversation, but because she's more stern andy will served, people are asking questions. >> that's a very good point. mary alice stephenson and kate bennett, great conversation, really appreciate it. >>> next we're going to talk about our breaking news. the brother of the manchester concert bomber who has been arrested. he's accused of planning a separate terror attack. we'll be live from the uk with breaking details. peeled because any time now we're expecting a congressional budget office to release its controversial health care bill that's passed the house. it's hit a $2 billion savings goal or it has to hit that goal or it's dead in the water in the senate. the estimate will also give us a sense of how many

. >> a tweet poking fun at president trump and his wife melania was apparently liked by melania trump's own twitter account. thises with a tweet, seems the only wall donald trump has built is the one between him and melania. but it's not clear if melania trump liked the tweet herself or if she was hacked. her account has since unliked that tweet. >> trevor: i'm sorry, if she was hacked? no, no, really? hacked? that would be the most low-key hacker in the world. i am in, sir, i'm in the main frame. we did it, guys. we liked the tweet. great work, all right, the tax returns, no, no, no, just leaf-- all right, done, done, done. like i don't know what happened here but it was fun to be reminded of that great moment from inauguration when melania's face changed. and that moment also shows that melania is the same person on twitter as she is in real life. she liked something, and then she unlikes it. but this wasn't the only awkward twitter moment from team trump. >> a picture of the president's steve bannon shows how the tracks its record on fulfilling campaign promtions. >> a rabbi yesterda

meeting that was only the pope and the president they had an expanded meeting, ivanka was there, melania, hr mcmaster, the national security advisor and a few other aides as well got a chance to meet the pope and talk to each other. the whole thing lasted 45 minutes or so. gifts were exchanged, the pope gave the president a medallion, to give to world leaders as well as three of his and cyclicals and the president because the pope during his 2015 address to congress had mentioned the march to selma, 50th anniversary of that in 1965, gave him a first edition of martin luther king writing that a sculpture by jeffrey smith, an artist from stuart, florida. after the meeting with the pope the president went to meet with the secretary of state and had a tour of the vatican. he should be leaving in the next few minutes meeting with the president of italy and the prime minister who was at the white house not long ago. they will meet in brussels when he attends the nato leaders summit. italy doesn't exactly match its commitment of 2% of its gdp, it is more like 97%. the president trying to push t

he's there along side his wife melania trump and, of course, vice president pence. the question is whether or not the media will bite on this. i mean, it's one thing to go out there and do all this and work yourself actively to change the narrative but it's challenging and you're still stuck with the reporters who want to stick to one thing and one thing only and that's the special prosecutors and james comey, et cetera. go ahead, pablo. >> i think that having melania with him on the trip is a tremendous asset. i think that everybody can agree doesn't really get it sometime when it comes to washington media like it did with the tabloid media, melania does, she has a lot more like an international sophistication, her being immigrant from another country that, you know, she seems to manage with these things. trish: hey, you know, i love that you're saying about melania because i will tell you i think she's a huge asset and she's always been but she's not someone who necessarily likes the public eye. one can understand specially given how the media is these days, it's

some interesting color as you noted melania trump was not wearing a head scarf when she arrived in riyad, sort of not really in keeping with norms, tradition am norms here in saudi arabia. evan kra tru ivanka trump not wearing a head scarf. at the same time, this is a president who has really defied conventional wisdom in the past and he'll do it here i assume on this foreign trip. martin it's interesting to watch how the president conducts himself on the first foreign trip. as you heard from ryan nobles he has so many controversies swirling around him in washington and no escaping those controversies when you get on the road. >> all right, cnn's jim acosta, thanks very much. very good to fill in the color for us there and give us a clearer understanding of who is doing what and when. >>> joining us now to talk further about this as we continue to watch these images and we will continue to show them to you as we discuss matters that may be domestic as well, joey jackson is part of the cnn legal team, analyst and criminal defense attorney, paris dennard, and alex pappas, "washington exami

melania tweeting the news.the most the world has seen of the first lady since her husband took off. and melania has made sure she's prepared for the world stage. the white house telling cnn her strategy was to pack a separate bag for each stop on the trip, taking every event on this five-city, nine-day journey as a separate focus. every outfit, from the demure black jump suit she arrived wearing in saudi arabia to her white ensembles in israel, where white is considered by some to be a holy color, a symbol of peace and purity, to the black lace dress by italian designers, do dolce and gabbana that she wore to meet the pope. she and ivanka trump wearing the required black formal wear, long sleeves and head veil for their audience with the pontiff. part of the protocol she likely studied when she met with state department officials in preparation for this trip. but it hasn't all been perfect. there was that hand swat heard around the world. the moment on the tarmac in tel aviv, when the president, crowding her ou

attention had to do with melania trump and the video. this a slap or did she just pull her hand away? she pulled her hand away but i didn't quite see the contact of a slap. >> trevor: wow, leave it to fox news not to recognize what rejection from a woman looks like. ( cheers and applause ) she -- she, uh -- she slapped his hand away which probably means she wants a promotion first, right? ( laughter ) now, on the next leg of trump's trip which took him to the vatican, trump's hands really couldn't catch a break because, this time, the first lady gave him the old down low too slow -- ( laughter ) -- which made me wonder, when you watch that, do you think maybe melania is jealous? oh, now you want to hold hands, donald. you sure you wouldn't rather be holding that orb? i remember when you used to touch me like the orb, donald. i told you, melania, me and the orb was a one-time thing. the orb means nothing to me, means nothing. i was barely hard. barely.

deeply moved to see that picture of you cutting the stones of the law and to see the first lady, melania trump touching the stone on that wall and equally moved when we saw your son and son-in-law and daughter do the same. now you touch other stones. we honor the memory of 6 million jews who were murdered in the holocaust. a few weeks ago you gave a powerful speech in the holocaust memorial day in washington d.c., and today in the solemn place our great monuments of remembrance, we remember the holocaust. we remember the hatred toward jews that consumed a defenseless people. we pledge never to be defenseless against that hatred again and to fulfill that pledge, israel must always be able to defend itself, by itself, against any threat. i appreciate america's long-standing commitment to that principle, and mr. president, i appreciate your commitment to that principle. your commitment to the security of the one and only jewish state which is entrusted with securing the jewish future. you said just now that we must confront evil in the world. we must confront the barbarians. they are sadly

and then first lady melania who has been by the president's side. but who will also have her own events. she of course today was with president trump, she is wearing a veil, as is daughter ivanka, that is tradition for women who are first meeting the pope. we're really seeing the first family on display in a way we don't typically get to see it in washington. and that has made this trip remarkable as well. just to underscore the point, jared kushner as come out as a top adviser to the president but really slowly taking on a more public role in this white house. so some of the optics that we're watching as we monitor this extraordinary morning, francis. >> optics are interesting, even leading up to this meeting, and reading on politico, a few days before this, claudia. as we bring in -- some were suggesting in some senset is pope francis here with the power and just the timing and when he chose to schedule it on a wednesday mortgagning, right be his regularly scheduled audience, i'm sure people are preparing for that. suggesting that -- i don't know
