State Department drops human rights as condition for fighter jet sale to Bahrain
The Obama administration had required as a precondition that Bahrain improve its human rights record, but the Trump administration dropped that requirement in a notification to Congress.

not any sort of a pogrom. The word 'pogrom' means a general ethnic cleansing or massacre of some whole group of people.

Everybody look!!!!! A Larouche reference! I will wait for georgeob's intricately worded yet overwrought condemnation of such nonsense. I know he won't stand for such a corrupt mischaracterization by the notorious Larouchies. It would rank right up there with endorsing the John Birch Society, which is another thing georgeob has too much integrity and patriotic fervor to do.

Everybody look!!!!! A Larouche reference!

2 White House Officials Helped Nunes View Secret Reports

WASHINGTON — A pair of White House officials played a role in providing Representative Devin Nunes of California, the Republican chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, with the intelligence reports that showed President Trump and his associates were incidentally swept up in foreign surveillance by American spy agencies.

The revelation that White House officials assisted in the disclosure of the intelligence reports — which Mr. Nunes then discussed with President Trump — is likely to fuel criticism that the intelligence chairman has been too eager to do the bidding of the Trump administration while his committee is supposed to be conducting an independent investigation of Russia’s meddling in the last presidential election.

Mr. Nunes has also been faulted by his congressional colleagues for sharing the information with President Trump before consulting with other members of the intelligence committee.

This guy's not so good with the politickin'.

White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer told NBC News after the defeat that the takeaway from the experience was knowing who the White House could trust and work with, and who they couldn't.

"Some people you can take at their word," he said at the time.

Not only is it unusual for a president to take on his own party, but it runs counter to a new narrative from the White House that it's seeking bipartisan support on future legislative efforts.

Trump shared a rare evening of bipartisanship with senators and their spouses Tuesday evening at the White House, with Spicer telling reporters the president looked forward to the opportunity to "speak with some of the senators about the places where they can come together and make this country better."

Spicer specifically mentioned outreach to Democrats on confirming Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch.

But Spicer also invited Democrats to join the administration as they plan tax reform and infrastructure overhauls. "We'd love to have as much support as possible," he said Tuesday briefing the press.

Thanks. I hadn't read it at all and rarely tune in to that stuff.

I was commenting only on the post I quoted. I thought I was clear, but perhaps Glitterbag doesn't read carefully.

I'm sorry, how exactly did Iran or Cuba improve their human rights records prior to Obama signing deals and handing over money?
