JUDY WOODRUFF: President Trump
is reacting cautiously to
reports that North Korea is

rebuilding a
missile launch site.

He was asked today it about
commercial satellite images that
show new construction that the

 

North has said it partially
dismantled last year.

DONALD TRUMP, President
of the United States:
The relationship is good.

I would be very disappointed
if that were happening.

I would be very, very
disappointed in Chairman Kim.

And I don't think I will be,
but we will see what happens.

We will take a look.

It will ultimately get solved.

JUDY WOODRUFF: The president's
second summit with North Korea's
leader, Kim Jong-un, collapsed

last week.

It is not clear if the
missile site work began
before or after that happened.

 

Democrats in the U.S. House
have delayed a resolution that
indirectly rebukes Minnesota

 

Representative Ilhan Omar.

The freshman congresswoman,
a Muslim, had suggested that
lawmakers feel pressured to

 

pledge allegiance to Israel.

Party leaders initially
offered a resolution
condemning anti-Semitism.

They delayed it today, amid
reports that supporters
of Omar protested at a
contentious closed-door

 

meeting.

The secretary of homeland
security told Congress
today that there is a
crisis at the southern

 

border with Mexico.

Kirstjen Nielsen cited
76,000 migrants who crossed
illegally last month.

 

That was more than
twice the total from
February of last year.

At a House hearing,
Nielsen said most of the
migrants are families
and that border agencies

cannot keep up.

KIRSTJEN NIELSEN, U.S. Secretary
of Homeland Security: We face
a crisis, a real, serious,

and sustained crisis
at our borders.

Our capacity is already severely
restrained, but these increases
will overwhelm the system

 

entirely.

This is not a
manufactured crisis.

This is truly an emergency.

JUDY WOODRUFF: At a separate
hearing, the Customs and
Border Protection commissioner,

Kevin McAleenan, said that
his agency has unprecedented
medical needs at its short-term

 

holding facilities.

Officials in Alabama now say all
those missing in Sunday's deadly
tornado have been accounted

 

for, and that the death
toll remained at 23.

Today, volunteers in the
hard-hit Beauregard community
turned a church into a donation

 

center.

They set up piles of clothing,
food, and diapers for victims.

U.S. Senator Martha McSally,
the first female combat pilot
in the ®MDNMir Force, revealed

 

today that, early in her
career, she was raped
by a superior officer.

The Arizona Republican made
the disclosure during a hearing
on sexual assaults in the

 

military.

McSally said that she didn't
report the rape because she
didn't trust the system.

REP.

MARTHA MCSALLY (R),
Arizona: I was horrified
at how my attempt to share
generally my experiences

 

were handled.

I almost separated from
the Air Force at 18
years over my despair.

 

Like many victims, I
felt the system was
raping me all over again.

 

JUDY WOODRUFF: McSally said the
military has come a long way
in handling sexual misconduct,

 

but that too many
commanders still have not
addressed the problem.

 

In Canada, a former top
aide to Prime Minister
Justin Trudeau denied
today that Trudeau demoted

 

his former attorney general
for targeting a Montreal
engineering company.

The former attorney general,
Jody Wilson-Raybould, has
said that Trudeau pressed
her not to prosecute

 

the company for alleged
bribery in Libya.

The former Trudeau aide,
Gerald Butts, told a
parliamentary committee
that nothing inappropriate

 

was done.

France has unveiled plans to
impose a 3 percent tax on tech
giants, including Amazon, Google

 

and Facebook.

The tax would apply to all
revenues generated in France.

The companies currently
pay taxes mostly where
they are based, and
they pay little in other

 

countries, even if they have
extensive operations there.

Back in this country, the U.S.
Interior Department gave notice
that it wants to end protections

for gray wolves nationwide.

The animals were granted
endangered species status in
1975, when only 1,000 were left.

 

Now more than 5,000 live in the
continental U.S. Protections
for wolves in the Northern

 

Rockies were lifted in 2011.

And the overall U.S. trade
deficit hit a 10-year high
last year, at $621 billion.

 

The Commerce Department reports
that it was driven largely
by a record trade gap with

 

China.

The negative numbers helped to
push Wall Street lower today.

The Dow Jones industrial
average lost 133 points
to close at 25673.

 

The Nasdaq fell 70 points,
and the S&P 500 slipped 18.

 

Still to come on the "NewsHour":
I sit down with Alaska
Senator Lisa Murkowski; a new

 

bill protecting millions
of acres of public
land; Saudi Arabian
students in the U.S. face

 

constant surveillance from
their home country; the director
of the National Institutes of

 

Health on sexual harassment in
the sciences; and much more.
