.@nancycordes: Graham said someone ought to assassinate Putin. Does the WH have any take on that statement? PSAKI: "That is not the position of the United States government and certainly not a statement you'd hear come from the mouth of anyone working in this administration."

Christie got a lot of heat for his book, but he laid down a marker on saying Trump post election conduct was wrong. Today Pence said Trump was “wrong” to say one man could overturn election results. That’s Trump’s final two VP choices during his 2016 deliberations.

There've been 8 defense secretaries, 6 chairmen of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and 4 presidents since the war in #Afghanistan began. @CBSDavidMartin has covered them all for @cbsnews. His reported and studied perspective on today's @facethenation was most valuable.
“It just wasn't supposed to end this way,” @CBSDavidMartin says. “When we went into Afghanistan, the primary threat was a terrorist attack. And now we're leaving 20 years later, and the primary threat is a terrorist attack.”
