Pan, motorcade departs airport STORYLINE: U.S. President Donald Trump talked for about a half-hour to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein during their flight Monday to Orlando, Florida, en route to a speech by the president to police chiefs around the world. White House spokesman Hogan Gidley says the two did not speak alone and that others sat in on their chat aboard Air Force One. He did not disclose details of their conversation, but referred back to the president's comments as he left the White House saying he did not intend to fire Rosenstein. Rosenstein's tenure at the Justice Department has been in question since news reports last month that he'd discussed possibly secretly recording Trump and invoking constitutional provisions to get him removed from office. Rosenstein, who oversees special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia probe, denied the reports. The conversation came after Trump told reporters on the White House's South Lawn that he doesn't have plans to fire Rosenstein. Trump added that he has a "very good relationship" with Rosenstein. Their meeting two weeks ago was postponed amid the Supreme Court nomination hearings. =========================================================== Clients are reminded: (i) to check the terms of their licence agreements for use of content outside news programming and that further advice and assistance can be obtained from the AP Archive on: Tel +44 (0) 20 7482 7482 Email: [email protected] (ii) they should check with the applicable collecting society in their Territory regarding the clearance of any sound recording or performance included within the AP Television News service (iii) they have editorial responsibility for the use of all and any content included within the AP Television News service and for libel, privacy, compliance and third party rights applicable to their Territory.
