Russia, Trump's own tweets distract from White House Infrastructure Week

It may be Infrastructure Week at the White House, but former FBI Director James Comey's testimony and President Trump's own words have trampled the administration's message as it pushes to repair roads, bridges, ports and tracks across the country.

With so much non-infrastructure news over the last few days, Infrastructure Week has become the target of jokes from Trump's opponents.

"Just wanted to say I'm enjoying infrastructure week," Sen. Brian Schatz, D-Hawaii, quipped Wednesday.

"I can't believe Infrastructure Week is half way over already," conservative columnist Jonah Goldberg said.

Trump is scheduled to continue the administration's infrastructure blitz by participating in a listening session with governors and mayors in Washington on Thursday. But all eyes will be on the Senate Intelligence Committee, where Corey will testify about his conversations with Trump.
