WASHINGTON - Congress may consider cutting the almost $1.3 billion in annual aid to Pakistan if it turns out the Islamabad government knew where Osama bin Laden was hiding, the head of the Senate Intelligence Committee said Tuesday.Sen.

Zzlv Point-Counterpoint: Two views on impeaching the president
Top Republican fundraiser and Hewlett Packard executive Meg Whitman told the New York Times Tuesday that she would throw her weight behind Hillary Clinton this year -- both with her vote and with her pocketbook. I will vote for Hillary, I will talk to my Republican friends about helping her, and I will donate to her campaign and try to raise money for her, Whitman told the Times, citing her strong opposition to Donald Trump, the Republican nominee for president.In the interview, Whitman, a billionaire former executive for eBay, blasted Trump as a dishonest demag stanley cups ogue, and cautioned against leadership that would put the U.S. on a very dangerous journey.

For Whitman, Republicans had to begin putting country first before party.

Apparently Maliki announced that there was no civil war in Iraq stanley mug 151; or even any real sectarian conflict 151; and therefore no need for the Shiite majority to waste time making any further concessions to the Sunni minority. The process of political reconciliation is dead because, as far as Maliki is concerned, it s already happened:Leave aside the various dubious claims which he makes....Focus intead on the political implications of what he s saying: this amounts to a public declaration by Maliki that there will be no further efforts to achieve political reconciliation.

Sweet reports that Barack Obama s campaign is doing a little re-organizing, sending some key staffers from headquarters in Chicago out to individual states. Not the early ones like Iowa and New Hampshire, but to some of those participating in the enormous February 5th primary date.The campaign says such moves have long been planned and it suggests that Obama is either planning on cashing in on some momentum from early wins or putting the pieces in place for a protracted battle at any cost. And, with about stanley travel mug $80 million already raised this year for the campaign, price is almost no object.From a strategic standpoint, the primary calendar remains the biggest question mark of the campaign.

Vuzq Wisconsin, Michigan GOP state lawmakers look to limit powers of new Democratic governors
Edgefield, S.C stanley us . -- Attorney General William Barr stanley kubek said Monday he sees a way to legally require 2020 census respondents to declare whether or not they are citizens, despite a Supreme Court ruling that forbade asking the question.In an interview with The Associated Press, Barr said the Trump administration will take action in the coming days that he believes will allow the government to add the controversial census query. Barr would not detail the plans, though a senior official said President Trump is expected to issue a memorandum to the Commerce Department instructing it to include the question on census forms.The Supreme Court recently blocked the question, at least temporarily, saying the administration s justification seems to have been contrived. That was a blow to Mr. Trump, who has been pressing for the government to demand information about citizenship. The U.S. Census Bureau s experts have said requiring such information would discourage immigrants from participating in the survey and result in a less accurate count. That in turn would redistribute money and political power away from Democratic-led cities where immigran stanley cup ts tend to cluster to whiter, rural areas where Republicans do well.Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Monday that Mr. Trump wants to add the demand for citizenship information because he wants to make America white again.

Bush - to fly him home to Texas on Tuesday as the former president. The aircraft will be the familiar 747-400 that routinely serves as Air Force One, but that won t be its radio call-sign on Tuesday afternoon, since Mr. Bush will be out of office.
