mollie, back to you. molly: thank you for that update. it is time now for our press review. i am joined here in the studio by dheepthika laurent. we are going to start off with the story we are covering yesterday, but it continues to get reaction. this is the phone call the between the prime minister of australia and the u.s. president. dheepthika: this affair keeps escalating. sean spicer said late on thursday that trump would indeed honor the refugee deal with australia. this after trump called it a done deal on twitter -- a dumb deal on twitter before hanging up on prime minister turnbull. miss -- chris spicer mispronounced turnbull's name. says allies in a , and the paper's columnist, troy branston, said survivedalliance has many presidents and many prime ministers, but we are in uncharted territory now. never before has a most early been disrespected in this way. turnbull's not fault, it is certainly his problem now. molly: donald trump also managed to anger arnold schwarzenegger. arnoldika: schwarzenegger has bitten back, after trump mocked him at the national prayer b

molly: that's right. reportedly within the administration you had this sort of sessions wing advocating for this rollback of the obe ma protections for transgender kids and betsy devos who, despite her reputation as a quite conservative, including socially conservative person, is friendly to lgbt issues and didn't want this to happen. so this an example of an issue that's a huge cultural flash point and where you know, the social conservatives who are very well organized within the republican party, within the conservative movement, they want this white house to do their bidding. they feel they got trump elected and now they deserve things in return. but there are other school offingsthouth even within the administration, even within the white house, and with a president, again who hasn't been in politics and doesn't have a well-articulated ideology, you end up with a squabbling that can sort of go either way. robert: the squabbling is happening, but in politics we track who is winning. it seems that atto
