i am poppy harlow in new york. we begin with a line presidents are not supposed to cross, but it was crossed by trump. the white house was a powerful force to lift a gag order to allow an undercover informant to cooperate with a deal involving uranium sale. it was uranium, and a host of agencies look at all those of u.s. agencies that had to approve the sale, including the state department which was headed at the time by hillary clinton. what was not public knowledge back then in 2010 was a newly reported fbi investigation into shady russian dealings aimed at getting a foothold in the u.s. nuclear sector. there are a lot of dots to be connected. i am glad we have jessica snyder to help us connect them, because this is important. let's begin before we go through those dots with the president making a really unprecedented move since the nixon era. >> it's being criticized. two sources tell cnn president trump did play a hand in getting this gag order lifted, and it's something chuck grassley asked the justice departm

>> poppy, you're absolutely right., many american analysts have said who iran is trying to do in the course of its nuclear program was split the united states from france, germany, britain, china, russia who are parties to the deal on this issue. instead what's happened is that president trump, if he goes ahead with the decertification, is taking a step that we expect none of the other signatories will follow. so is the u.s. will have accomplished the deal doing that split. but remember decertification by itself, as indicated before, does not pull the u.s. out of the deal. it is simply a message from the white house to congress. on so only the next step, which would be reimposing sanctions that the u.s. lifted under the deal in return for iran shipping its fuel out, only that would violate the deal. there is a sense what the white house aides are doing here is helping the president get past his allergy of this 90-day certification. >> right. >> but doing something that wouldn't blow the deal up. >> it sends a message t

>> reporter: hi, poppy. there's a variety of reactions. there's certainly disappointment and some anger. on the whole, if you talk to government officials, they say despite all of this, we're not going to budge on our own positions. one of the things iranian officials have been saying, they believe if there's decertification the u.s. would be isolating itself. they say you have to keep in mind this iran nuclear deal is not between america and iran, it is between america, iran and a lot of other countries, and head of parliament came forward and said i do not think the world has taken allegations made by trump seriously, then he goes on as far as i know, the stances adopted by european countries, russia and china, is like the stances adopted by tehran, and such hasty measures will create problems for other countries. the iranians believe most other countries are on their side in all this. you heard from the russians saying they believe iran is abiding by the nuclear agreement. and very interesting when you speak to regular folks, crews spok

>> hey, poppy. clark county sheriff says it's a minute change to the timeline.t's about 15 minutes roughly, and that 15 minutes makes a difference. the original theory is the security guard arrived on the 32nd floor and was shot by the suspect after he already fired down at the crowd for about ten minutes, and that his presence there seemed to distract him from firing down. well, that is no longer the case. it's still true that cam pos was responding to a open door, and he was shot six minutes before the shooting down at the concert venue started. so why did the suspect stop firing? that is now still an open question, poppy. >> police also are now more and more confident, scott, there was an escape plan. they thought perhaps there was and there was a lot of ammunition, guns in his car, but why are they so sure now there was an escape plan? >> we will likely never know for sure, poppy, but the sheriff said yesterday that this idea of an escape plan is still very much possible for a couple reasons. first, we know the suspect tried to fire at large fuel tanks at th

>> reporter: hi there, poppy. well, we know joint military exercises happen regularly between the u.s. and south korea. we know they always infuriate the north korean regime. what is different as of now is that tensions have never been hire. there has never been this bellicose rhetoric between the u.s. and north korea. president trump saying everything from threaten to go totally destroy the country to making up a demeaning nickname for kim jong-un calling him little rock et man. all of that has pushed the north koreans to a level of anger that we haven't seen in quite some time. the foreign minister calling the president mentally deranged and threaten to go detonate a bomb over the pacific, a nuclear bomb. so now we are here where we have joint military exertions that kicked off today. they will last 10 days. 40 naval ships involved. uss ronald reagan involved, along with fighter jets. previous joint drills have resulted in north korea app nuclear tests and missile launchesing including a missile tpaoeurld over j

>> reporter: good morning, poppy. what we understand is this. hospital where i'm standing of southern nevada is the only level one trauma center in the state. and from what we understand, there are more than 100 patients that are here in this hospital. we reached out to the hospital to find out how many people they have here. they are saying they have more than 30 patients that were treated in the trauma center. eight of the patient there is taken to the operating room. we also know that they have 12 patients that are in critical condition. so over 104 total patients admitted to this hospital of the more than 400 people that were transferred to hospitals. they say they are also working to make sure they are getting blood donations. they are going to need blood. they are saying this is one of the places they are going to do it. as we get later into the morning here, they are going to ask people who are in the jarea if they could come and donate blood. they are going to need that here. it's crucial to understand that this is the only trauma center

. >> i am poppy harlow. cnn just learned the fbi joined the investigation into what happened to the four u.s. soldiers in niger. that's critical for their families to know. what is making the most noise, though, is the continued new battle and new back and forth over president trump's c condoleance call. fredricka wilson listened to the call. and donald trump said fake news is going crazy with the whacky congressional woman. >> my emphasis today is on my constituents, and helping them lay our hero to rest. that's where my head is today. i'm also concerned about him and his last moments. i want to know why he was separated from the rest of the soldiers? why did it take 48 hours to find him? was he still alive? was he kidnapped? >> more on the fbi's pursuit of these answers in just a moment. first, let's go to the white house. cnn's joe johns is there, and joe, this morning, the feud very much continues. >> we can't hear joe johns. this happens and we'll get him back in a moment. yes, this is news that the fbi

. >> reporter: good morning, poppy. what the picture suggests is it adds to the picture behind the scenes of drama and the white house. it adds to the picture that senator bob corker was eluding to when he talked about the white house as an adult daycare center. there's also some suggestion that the president has become increasingly distraught after seemingly losing the magic touch in trump country alabama by backing the wrong candidate in the senate race there. this reporting from gabriel sherman in "vanity fair" magazine really describes a president that is increasingly isolated. let me say that the white house denies that all of this reporting is true. nonetheless, if it is true, it's fascinating and offers a lot of insight. one of the quotes we have taken out, according to two sources familiar with the conversation, trump vented to his long-time ns,urity chief keith chillar, i but i hate them. at the center of all of this, of course, is the president himself as well as his chief of staff, john kelly. there's some su
