The narrow
GOP majority in the Senate is not just threatened by Democrat filibusters.
There are more than enough Republicans suffering from the malignant
pre-condition of libertarian isolationism to flip the balance in the
chamber when national security issues are at stake.
"The
coalition does not seek to fight Syrian regime, Russian or pro-regime
forces partnered with them, but will not hesitate to defend coalition or
partner forces from any threat."
Tillerson was

concerns with National Security Secretary John Kelly regarding the
connection between "criminal networks and terrorist networks."
The
memorandum written by former Director Comey memorializing his meeting and

translate: The investigators have no evidence of Trump campaign
coordination with Russia and, if it is possible, they have even less cause
to believe there was a bribe, and less still to believe the bribe was
conveyed in a deceptive manner that amounted to a felony money-laundering
violation.
"This is

massacre and many Republicans would have had to be replaced.

Sean Spicer briefed reporters and responded to questions on a range of
issues. He addressed the alleged tapes of conversations between President
Trump and former FBI Director James Comey, the Ninth Circuit Court of
Appeals ruling on the president's executive order on immigration and
refugees, and Attorney General Jeff Sessions' upcoming testimony on Capitol
Hill. At the top of the briefing, Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta updated
reporters on workforce initiatives and job creation. (CSPAN)
