How is the U.S. government responding to the violence in Mexico?
At 1.30 this morning, the security detail detected that an individual had made his way into the inner perimeter of Bar Lago. A deputy and two Secret Service agents on the detail went to that area to investigate. They confronted a white male that was carrying a gas can and a shotgun. He was ordered to drop those two pieces of equipment that he had with him at which time he put down the gas can, raised the shotgun to a shooting position. At that point in time, the deputy and the two Secret Service agents fired their weapons and neutralized the threat. He is deceased at the scene. I'll give you a picture of the shotgun and the gas can to have with you. So that's what we know now. The investigation continues.
What challenges do tourists face in Mexico amid the cartel violence?
The FBI is the lead investigation agency on this case, and we will be assisting them in whatever manner they would like.
And they will be responsible for answering any other questions at an appropriate time. So everybody is being told to leave the area right now here on the beach.

huge buildup of air and naval assets in the region preparing for some kind of strike. Trump has said he wants this resolved within 10 to 15 days, so that clock is ticking. There is a meeting scheduled on Thursday in Geneva where the Iranians will show up with a new proposal. It's hard to see now how that will be sufficient to close the gap fully between the U.S.
