In the day's other news:
President Trump said that he is
not worried about impeachment,

not even a little
bit, as he put it.

Some Democrats are pushing
to begin impeachment
proceedings based on
his actions as described

 

in the Mueller report.

The report also relates multiple
accounts of aides ignoring
the president's directives.

 

But he insisted today -- quote
-- "Nobody disobeys my orders."

The House Judiciary Committee
subpoenaed one of the aides,
former White House counsel Don

 

McGahn.

The Mueller report says that
McGahn refused to fire the
special counsel in 2017.

 

Meanwhile, the president and the
Trump Organization sued to block
another subpoena, this one for

 

their financial records.

In turn, the House Oversight
Committee chair, Democrat Elijah
Cummings, accused the White

 

House of what he called
unprecedented stonewalling.

Five key nations that buy
Iranian oil now risk losing
favored status with the United

 

States.

China, India, Japan, South
Korea and Turkey were served
notice that they must halt their

 

Iranian oil imports by
May 2, or face penalties.

U.S. Secretary of State Mike
Pompeo said today the goal
remains to deprive Iran's regime

 

of critical revenue by
cutting off all its oil sales.

MIKE POMPEO, U.S. Secretary
of State: We're going to zero.

How long we remain
there, at zero, depends
solely on the Islamic
Republic of Iran's senior

 

leaders.

We have made our demands very
clear to the ayatollah and
his cronies: End your pursuit

of nuclear weapons, stop
testing and proliferating
ballistic missiles, stop
sponsoring and committing

 

terrorism, halt the arbitrary
detention of U.S. citizens.

JUDY WOODRUFF: The sanctions
announcement sent oil prices
surging to their highest levels

 

since October.

But the Trump administration
said that it will work with
Saudi Arabia and the United

Arab Emirates to ensure that
the global oil market is stable.

U.S. Representative Seth
Moulton of Massachusetts
is now the newest Democrat
in the 2020 presidential

 

race.

The 40-year-old Marine
veteran announced today.

He garnered attention
last year when he sought
to oust Nancy Pelosi as
leader of House Democrats.

 

We will have a report
from the campaign trail
later in the program.

The U.S. Supreme Court will
consider whether lesbians, gays,
bisexuals, and transsexuals

 

are covered by federal law
against sex discrimination.

The court today accepted a
case to be argued this fall.

At issue is whether the
1964 Civil Rights Act
extends to LGBT people.

 

Federal appellate courts
have ruled that it does.

The latest numbers are in, and
two major government entitlement
programs are still going broke.

 

Program trustees reported
today that Medicare will
be insolvent by 2026.

 

That is unchanged from
last year's estimate.

Social Security will
run dry by 2035.

That's one year later
than the last estimate.

In economic news, one of the men
President Trump was considering
for the Federal Reserve

Board, former pizza company
executive Herman Cain, withdrew
today from consideration.

 

He faced questions about sexual
harassment allegations and
his qualifications for the

 

job.

Meanwhile, on Wall Street,
the Dow Jones industrial
average lost 48 points
to close at 26511.

 

The Nasdaq rose 17 points.

And the S&P 500
added about three.

And some 30,000 children and
parents gathered on the White
House lawn today for the annual

 

Easter egg roll.

The main event, as always, was
the race to roll hard-boiled
eggs across the grounds.

 

The White House tradition
dates back to 1878.
