House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said at her weekly news conference that the whole world on Monday saw President Donald Trump “cower in the presence” of Russian leader Vladimir Putin. She decried the president for even entertaining the idea of allowing Russia to potentially interrogate former U.S. diplomats; and she called on her GOP counterparts to fully fund efforts to secure the 2018 from potential Russian meddling.
