1
00:00:01,933 --> 00:00:05,000
In the day's other news: 
President Trump said that he is 
not worried about impeachment,

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:07,600
not even a little 
bit, as he put it.

3
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:12,600
Some Democrats are pushing 
to begin impeachment 
proceedings based on 
his actions as described

4
00:00:13,333 --> 00:00:15,300
in the Mueller report.

5
00:00:15,300 --> 00:00:19,300
The report also relates multiple 
accounts of aides ignoring 
the president's directives.

6
00:00:20,733 --> 00:00:24,400
But he insisted today -- quote 
-- "Nobody disobeys my orders."

7
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:29,400
The House Judiciary Committee 
subpoenaed one of the aides, 
former White House counsel Don

8
00:00:29,900 --> 00:00:31,933
McGahn.

9
00:00:31,933 --> 00:00:35,900
The Mueller report says that 
McGahn refused to fire the 
special counsel in 2017.

10
00:00:37,966 --> 00:00:41,400
Meanwhile, the president and the 
Trump Organization sued to block 
another subpoena, this one for

11
00:00:43,033 --> 00:00:45,066
their financial records.

12
00:00:45,066 --> 00:00:49,200
In turn, the House Oversight 
Committee chair, Democrat Elijah 
Cummings, accused the White

13
00:00:50,633 --> 00:00:54,333
House of what he called 
unprecedented stonewalling.

14
00:00:54,333 --> 00:00:59,300
Five key nations that buy 
Iranian oil now risk losing 
favored status with the United

15
00:01:00,966 --> 00:01:02,933
States.

16
00:01:02,933 --> 00:01:06,933
China, India, Japan, South 
Korea and Turkey were served 
notice that they must halt their

17
00:01:08,333 --> 00:01:11,900
Iranian oil imports by 
May 2, or face penalties.

18
00:01:11,900 --> 00:01:16,900
U.S. Secretary of State Mike 
Pompeo said today the goal 
remains to deprive Iran's regime

19
00:01:18,333 --> 00:01:22,000
of critical revenue by 
cutting off all its oil sales.

20
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,100
MIKE POMPEO, U.S. Secretary 
of State: We're going to zero.

21
00:01:25,100 --> 00:01:30,100
How long we remain 
there, at zero, depends 
solely on the Islamic 
Republic of Iran's senior

22
00:01:31,100 --> 00:01:33,166
leaders.

23
00:01:33,166 --> 00:01:37,200
We have made our demands very 
clear to the ayatollah and 
his cronies: End your pursuit

24
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:42,200
of nuclear weapons, stop 
testing and proliferating 
ballistic missiles, stop 
sponsoring and committing

25
00:01:43,666 --> 00:01:47,266
terrorism, halt the arbitrary 
detention of U.S. citizens.

26
00:01:47,266 --> 00:01:52,233
JUDY WOODRUFF: The sanctions 
announcement sent oil prices 
surging to their highest levels

27
00:01:52,866 --> 00:01:55,033
since October.

28
00:01:55,033 --> 00:01:58,466
But the Trump administration 
said that it will work with 
Saudi Arabia and the United

29
00:01:58,466 --> 00:02:03,200
Arab Emirates to ensure that 
the global oil market is stable.

30
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:08,200
U.S. Representative Seth 
Moulton of Massachusetts 
is now the newest Democrat 
in the 2020 presidential

31
00:02:09,966 --> 00:02:11,200
race.

32
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,800
The 40-year-old Marine 
veteran announced today.

33
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:18,633
He garnered attention 
last year when he sought 
to oust Nancy Pelosi as 
leader of House Democrats.

34
00:02:20,233 --> 00:02:24,900
We will have a report 
from the campaign trail 
later in the program.

35
00:02:24,900 --> 00:02:29,900
The U.S. Supreme Court will 
consider whether lesbians, gays, 
bisexuals, and transsexuals

36
00:02:31,366 --> 00:02:34,900
are covered by federal law 
against sex discrimination.

37
00:02:34,900 --> 00:02:39,000
The court today accepted a 
case to be argued this fall.

38
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:44,000
At issue is whether the 
1964 Civil Rights Act 
extends to LGBT people.

39
00:02:45,633 --> 00:02:49,533
Federal appellate courts 
have ruled that it does.

40
00:02:49,533 --> 00:02:54,500
The latest numbers are in, and 
two major government entitlement 
programs are still going broke.

41
00:02:56,700 --> 00:03:01,666
Program trustees reported 
today that Medicare will 
be insolvent by 2026.

42
00:03:02,866 --> 00:03:04,933
That is unchanged from 
last year's estimate.

43
00:03:04,933 --> 00:03:08,833
Social Security will 
run dry by 2035.

44
00:03:08,833 --> 00:03:12,033
That's one year later 
than the last estimate.

45
00:03:12,033 --> 00:03:16,633
In economic news, one of the men 
President Trump was considering 
for the Federal Reserve

46
00:03:16,633 --> 00:03:21,633
Board, former pizza company 
executive Herman Cain, withdrew 
today from consideration.

47
00:03:23,500 --> 00:03:27,933
He faced questions about sexual 
harassment allegations and 
his qualifications for the

48
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,900
job.

49
00:03:30,900 --> 00:03:34,000
Meanwhile, on Wall Street, 
the Dow Jones industrial 
average lost 48 points 
to close at 26511.

50
00:03:36,566 --> 00:03:39,100
The Nasdaq rose 17 points.

51
00:03:39,100 --> 00:03:42,366
And the S&P 500 
added about three.

52
00:03:42,366 --> 00:03:47,366
And some 30,000 children and 
parents gathered on the White 
House lawn today for the annual

53
00:03:47,966 --> 00:03:49,966
Easter egg roll.

54
00:03:49,966 --> 00:03:54,166
The main event, as always, was 
the race to roll hard-boiled 
eggs across the grounds.

55
00:03:55,566 --> 00:03:59,600
The White House tradition 
dates back to 1878.

56
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:04,566
Still to come on the "NewsHour":

for president of Ukraine;
