What did President Trump and Xi Jinping discuss at the White House meeting on trade and AI?

Dave Anthony 0:02
This hasn't happened since 2015. I'm Dave Anthony, Fox News. China's leader is at the White House, where President Trump gave Xi Jinping a red carpet welcome before state dinner tonight. They'll talk trade and AI. And in a Trump Truth social post, the President wrote that he and the Chinese leader both want superintelligence to be left exactly where it is, amid a push by many lawmakers for more regulations to keep AI from getting dangerously out of control. The two leaders may also discuss this.

She broke that promise, fortifying the islands with runways and air defense systems, and President Xi is expected to press President Trump to halt U.S. arms sales to Taiwan during their summit.
Dave Anthony 1:06
They may also talk about the Iran conflict that continues to spill over to Saudi Arabia.
Jonathan Savage 1:10
Six ballistic missiles were fired towards the Saudi port of Yanbu on the Red Sea. According to the Saudi military, all were intercepted. They blame the Iran backed Houthi group based in Yemen, which is attempting to blockade Saudi Arabia, the world's top oil exporter.
Dave Anthony 1:25
That's Fox's Jonathan Savage. In about three hours, Israel's Prime Minister will speak out about Iran at the United Nations General Assembly. The Israeli ambassador to the UN, Danny Danone, tells Fox that Benjamin Netanyahu will detail what we have to do in order to ensure they are not capable of obtaining nuclear warheads.

Why are Iran‑backed Houthi missiles targeting Saudi ports and what is the UN response?

Dave Anthony 1:43
Netanyahu will also address Gaza. As anti Israel protests are planned in New York accusing Netanyahu of genocide and all the Palestinian deaths from Israel's war in Gaza triggered by Hamas's deadly terror attack in twenty twenty three. America's listening to Fox News. Senate Republicans continue to investigate former presidential COVID advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci, wanting to question one of the doctor's unnamed aides who, like Fauci, isn't cooperating. I do not want to see Anthony Fauci's assistant go to jail. Uh I want the truth.
Bill Malugin 2:19
Republicans say they've got a whole lot of evidence that this former Fauci aide was destroying government emails on Fauci's behalf.

What are Senate Republicans alleging about a former Fauci aide’s refusal to testify?

Bill Malugin 2:26
That's why they want her sworn testimony and why they wanted to offer her immunity for that testimony. But Democrats blocked that effort yesterday. Committee Chairman Rand Paul says the aide refused to answer the committee's questions last week under subpoena. She pleaded the fifth amendment multiple times, and this vote was an effort to give her some legal cover in exchange for the truth. Paul says that because this staffer, this former Fauci staffer, is taking what he describes as the hard road here by not answering questions under subpoena, he is going to refer this matter to the Department of Justice.
Dave Anthony 2:58
Paul's GOP led committee also referred Dr. Fauci to the Department of Justice for possible contempt of Congress charges for refusing to answer questions at a hearing over the summer. It is stormy in the Pacific. Polo is the second strongest hurricane ever in that ocean.
