'Start Here': Trump promises more in US-Mexico tariff deal and helicopter crash in NYC

Here's what you need to know to start your day.

June 11, 2019, 6:19 AM

It's Tuesday, June 11, 2019. Let's start here.

1. Trump's tariff talk, Barr turns over some evidence

Without providing details, President Trump continues to say the U.S. and Mexico have agreed to "another very important part" of the tariff deal the two countries stuck over the weekend. Mexico has denied the claim.

ABC News' Karen Travers tells "Start Here" what the president told her when she asked about it: "the president continues to insist that there's more there there."

Then, ABC News’ Ben Siegel previews a vote in Congress today which would authorize the House to go to court to seek enforcement of subpoenas against Attorney General Bill Barr and former White House counsel Don McGahn.

2. Bishops conference begins

Today, bishops from all over the country will meet in Baltimore to discuss how to handle sex abuse by priests in the Catholic Church.

Michael O'Loughlin from the Jesuit magazine "America" previews the event: "The big debate that we're going to hear is how involved will lay people be in this process of holding bishops accountable."

3. NYC copter chaos

A pilot died when a helicopter crashed onto the roof of a Midtown Manhattan building in a hard landing on Monday, prompting evacuations near Times Square.

Col. Stephen Ganyard, a retired military pilot and current ABC News contributor, tells the "Start Here" podcast that "there's going to be real questions about whether he was where he should have been and whether he should have been flying at all."
