   The fallout from the weekend's clash in Charlottesville has dominated the day's news again.


  It came in new criticism of President Trump 1, and in words of praise for the woman who was run down by a car. John Yang begins our coverage 2.
  In Charlottesville today, hundreds of people gathered to remember Heather Heyer at a downtown theater,
  just blocks from where the 32-year-old was killed as she protested Saturday's white nationalist rally.
  Did I ever tell you how much I loved you? Heather, when my children ask me who I admire most, I will them you.
  President Trump called her a truly special young woman.
  The firestorm over Mr. Trump's ricocheting response to the violent confrontation 3 spread. More CEOs quit Trump administration advisory 4 councils.
  With even additional resignations likely, Mr. Trump moved preemptively.
  "Rather than putting pressure on the business people of the Manufacturing Council and Strategy and Policy Forum 5, I am ending both."
  In Chile, Vice 6 President Mike Pence stood by his embattled boss.
  The strength of the United States of America is always strongest,
  as the president has said so eloquently 7, when we are united around our shared values. And so it will always be.
  But lawmakers from both parties condemned 9 equating 10 the white nationalists who organized Saturday's rally,
  and counterprotesters many Republicans never mentioning the president's name.
  Former Presidents George Bush, father and son, issued a joint 11 statement: "America must always reject racial bigotry 12, anti-Semitism, and hatred 13 in all forms."
  The backlash also extended abroad.
  I see no equivalence between those who propound 14 fascist 15 views and those who oppose them.
  And I think it is important for all those in positions of responsibility to condemn 8 far-right views, wherever we hear them.
  Mindful of Saturday's confrontation, Baltimore officials ordered the overnight removal of statues of Confederate leaders in the interests of public safety.
  In Charlottesville, all this was on the minds of those who spoke 16 of Heather Heyer.
  I want to thank you, Heather, for all your passion, for all of your talks,
  for all of your smiles, for believing that this world can change, and trying to make that happen.
  A grieving mother sought meaning in her daughter's death:
  They tried to kill my child to shut her up well, guess what? You just magnified her.
  So, remember, in your heart, if you're not outraged 17, you're not paying attention.
  And I want you to pay attention. And that's how you're going to make my child's death worthwhile.
  I would rather have my child, but, by golly, if I have to give her up, we're going to make it count.
  For the PBS NewsHour, I'm John Yang. undefined
