Merkley: U.S. needs watchdog, not Russian talking points
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo told senators that the Trump administration has been tougher on Russia than its predecessor, and that the president has the prerogative to have private conversations with his Cabinet and with other leaders. Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., tells Nick Schifrin that Trump has actually been very slow to act, and has had to be “dragged, screaming” into taking any firm stand.
