with oil at $50 a barrel, it's been met with some skepticism. >> a little bit of this is hype. but from the standpoint of embracing this with a big grin on his face, that's what people in saudi arabia want to see right now. >> reporter: during his eight-year tenure, president obama approved $115 billion of potential arms sales to the kingdom. many of those were put on hold after saudi arabia invaded yemen. some of those may be resuscitated now, including deals for combat ships from lockheed martin and tanks. a new security system is made by raytheon, run by tom kennedy. >> missile defense is important to any country's strategy today. >> we've been recommending raytheon, frankly mr. kennedy has done a nice job of expanding the capability of his offerings in saudi among other places. also they have the premier air defense offering and probably the singular best radar capability in the world today. >> reporter: other agreements could involve more patriot missiles and munitions. according to one industry official familiar with the discussions, more combat vehicles from a british co

there were a lot of critics and skeptics are from the western world that said your boat was not legitimate it was not a legitimate one, -- >> it was a question of fairness. president trump kind of stood out and that he congratulates the president on this when which erdogan new powers, executive powers than was traditionally the case with the presidency, other things, you have the president demanding from americans that they extradite him from berlin. you have the issue of the who are accused of breaking sanctions against iran. rudy giuliani is on the defense he is a close ally of president trump. >> out you to weigh in here. he is going to come to saudi arabia, he spoke to the turkish president, what is the shipping up to become? is the saudi arabia and visit going to be the climax? arabia isit to saudi the first part of the visit. it is remarkable. second of all, they do seem to be dealing. the ceos were going to be with president trump, we are expecting some deals with them being signed. they are to have the news that there is $14 billion from saudi's being invested in u.s. infrastructur

there's still a lot of skeptics in washington and across the u.s. when it comes to the nuclear deal, even though trump, as i said before, extended the sanctions rollback this week is there a sense they could extend president trump to extend those sanctions? >> the sanctions put in play in 2011 and 2012 that were so effective and forced iran back to the table, created the context of the nuclear deal, those sanctions were as effective as they were because the obam mra administratia admi convinced countries like the uk, like germany to cooperate. the u.s. acting loonu unilat ra prior to that had by theal success. the opportunity to convince those skeptics on the sanction toss go back to reinstating sanctions, they're a long way away from doing that when you listen to the foreign ministries in beijing, in london and in germany. you're not hearing minute centers ready to go on reinstating sanctions. the trump administration will have work to do to reconstruct that cole lig. coalition. >> thank you very much. >>> just on the oil market, steve will be live

whenever a politician talks about health care, there are rightly a little skeptical about it.'m not surprised people are wanting to get a good look at it. >> jenna: lemay good to that. you're the one that we say over and over again, we should trademark that thing. if that is the same accusation and we've seen the story play out, then what's the response to that about whether or not the average american health care is going to get better? >> i think that's the goal of this whole effort and politics be darn, you've got a house democrat in congress who is out there and saying that he is hopefully going to address some of the problems they couldn't. i would like to hope that the senate democrats would have a different point of view, but it doesn't appear they do. >> jenna: what about that? just listening to that, it's like, okay. politics as usual. or, democrats plug in and help here? if the priority is actually the american public and not politics? >> first of all, parts of obamacare is working very, very well. it is a lot more people who are insured who weren't insured before an

and the memos may be the only way for this administration to credibly make a case to a justifiably skeptical american public about its version of the story reported by "the new york times." the president says what comey said was wrong. prove it. it's easy to prove. as long as there are tapes or transcripts of what happened. if the president's right, he'll have no problem releasing memos, tapes, transcripts that collaborate his story, but if he fails to release them, the american public will justifiably tend to side with mr. comey, not what the president had to say, particularly in light of so much backtracking, backsliding, factual fabrication in this white house. finally, the events of this past week only heighten the need for a special prosecutor who is truly independent to run the department of justice's investigations into the potential collusion between the trump campaign and russia. the american people must have faith in the integrity and impartiality of this investigation. we've learned that if the reporting is accurate, that the president is willing to directly interfere with an acti

those who have been skeptical about him in the past are skeptical, but the usual alliances of most republicans are holding in support of the president, despite the fact that the president is making it difficult. for example, explaining that one of the reasons he fired director comey was because he thought investigation comey was heading was not legitimate. democrats, of course, see that as obstruction of justice. but even if republicans are in lockstep, there's another challenge here, which is how do they continue pushing legislation now that they have to face this distraction this week, and the distraction that seems almost certain to come in the future. >> mason: john dickerson, thanks, john. sunday on "face the nation," john's guests include former defense secretary robert gates, and adam schiff, the top democrat on the house intelligence committee. an ohio coroner is reopening the investigationave suicide by an eight-year-old boy. it happened in january. today, the cincinnati school district released surveillance video showing what happened to the boy two days before he took his life. here

the vaccine skeptics who spread doubt in the somali community declined our request for an interview.its website the vaccine safety council of minnesota says, because there is risk there must be choice. patsy says this is what that choice looks like. >> that's why we vaccinate to prevent terrible life-threatening diseases. >> reporter: tonight, minnot kristen dahlgren, nbc news, minneapolis. >> we are back in a moment with a scam you need to watch out for, just in time for mother's day. a am you this lovely lady has a typical airline credit card. so she only earns double miles on purchases she makes from that airline. what'd you earn double miles on, please? ugh. that's unfortunate. there's a better option. the capital one venture card. with venture, you earn unlimited double miles on every purchase, everywhere, every day. not just airline purchases. seems like a no-brainer. what's in your wallet? i never miss an early but with my back pain i couldn't sleep or get up in time. then i found aleve pm. the only one to combine a sleep aid plus the 12 hour pain relie
