News Wrap: White House asked whether Trump believes he is above the law

In our news wrap Monday, President Trump argued he has an "absolute right to pardon" himself in the Russia Investigation. He also claimed that the appointment of special counsel Robert Mueller to head the Russia probe was "totally unconstitutional" but gave no reason. Also, Guatemala's official death toll rose to 62 after the country’s most violent volcanic eruption in more than four decades.
