The Fallout From Trump's Former Aides' Guilty Verdicts

We hear reaction to the statement by Donald Trump's former lawyer, Michael Cohen that he violated campaign finance laws on behalf of his client.

US President Donald Trump's former lawyer, Michael Cohen, has pleaded guilty to violating campaign finance laws. He said he had done so at the direction of "the candidate", for the "principal purpose of influencing the election". On the same day, former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort was found guilty of bank and tax fraud charges. We look at the reaction in Washington and we hear from Trump supporters.

Also, we go to Brazil where Venezuelan immigrant's have been fleeing into the country to escape Venezuela's growing economic crisis. And we speak to photographer Johnny Miller, whose aerial drone shots revealing the dramatic divide between rich and poor around the world have gone viral.
