CBS cut away from President Trump's declaration of a national emergency at the border on Friday to return to its regularly scheduled programming of "The Price is Right" on the East Coast.
All of the broadcast and cable news networks carried the declaration and press conference that followed, with only CBS deciding to cut away after 21 minutes before the event was complete.

The Trump Doctrine: Never shall a national emergency interfere with golf...
Interesting optics on Friday as Trump, according to the W.H. schedule, declares a national emergency at the southern border and then jets off to Mar-a-Lago a few hours later.
10 a.m. today: President Trump will declare a National Emergency at the border.
4:20 p.m. today: In light of these grave circumstances, President Trump will depart for Palm Beach, Florida, where he will spend the weekend golfing at his private beach resort, Mar-a-Lago.

Pelosi on Fire!
"You want to talk about a national emergency? Let's talk about today. The one year anniversary of another manifestation of the epidemic of gun violence in America. That's a national emergency. Why don't you declare that emergency, Mr. President? ... A Democratic president could."
