Abraham Lincoln Was Black And Frederick Douglass Is Alive

Vice-President Mike Pence posted a tweet on Wednesday in which he recognized the beginning of Black History Month by honoring a white man.
The tweet acknowledged President Abraham Lincoln and his work around the abolishment of slavery, but fails to mention the contributions of any black trailblazer.
The good news is that President Donald Trump opened Black History Month by mentioning the renowned abolitionist Frederick Douglass. The bad news is he doesn’t seem to realize he’s dead. Speaking at a Black History Month event on Wednesday, Trump’s comments suggested he thought Douglass was alive.

Donald Trump Vows To 'Totally Destroy' Johnson Amendment
Published on Feb 4, 2017 by Mike Malloy
President Donald Trump has announced he will "get rid of and totally destroy" a 60-year-old rule that blocks tax-exempt religious groups from endorsing or opposing political candidates.
The so-called Johnson amendment was introduced by then-Senator Lyndon B Johnson in 1954. It threatens churches and other religious institutions with the loss of their tax-exempt status should they overstep the mark.
At the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington DC on Thursday Mr Trump said: "Jefferson asked, 'Can the liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God?' Among those freedoms is the right to worship according to our own beliefs. That is why I will get rid of and totally destroy the Johnson amendment and allow our representatives of faith to speak freely and without fear of retribution—I will do that."

Trust Records Show Trump Is Still Closely Tied to His Empire
Among the Trump family, Donald Trump Jr., right, is one of two named trustees who have broad legal authority over President Trump’s assets. The elder Mr. Trump can revoke the trustees’ authority at any time.
FEB. 3, 2017
Just days before his inauguration, President-elect Donald J. Trump [ http://www.nytimes.com/topic/person/donald-trump ] stood beside his tax lawyer at a Midtown Manhattan news conference as she announced that he planned to place his vast business holdings in a trust, a move she said would allay fears that he might exploit the Oval Office for personal gain.
However, a number of questions were left unanswered — including who would ultimately benefit from the trust — raising concerns about just how meaningful the move was.
Now, records have emerged that show just how closely tied Mr. Trump remains to the empire he built.
While the president says he has walked away from the day-to-day operations of his business, two people close to him are the named trustees and have broad legal authority over his assets: his eldest son, Donald Jr., and Allen H. Weisselberg, the Trump Organization’s chief financial officer. Mr. Trump, who will receive reports on any profit, or loss, on his company as a whole, can revoke their authority at any time.
What’s more, the purpose of the Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust is to hold assets for the “exclusive benefit” of the president. This trust remains under Mr. Trump’s Social Security [ http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/subjects/s/social_security_us/index.html ] number, at least as far as federal taxes are concerned.

PREVIEW: Trump Tells O'Reilly He 'Respects' Putin in Super Bowl Interview
Feb 04, 2017 // 6:20pm
On Sunday, Bill O'Reilly will have a special Super Bowl pre-game interview with President Trump at 4 p.m. ET on your local FOX broadcast station.
In a special preview, Trump revealed his plans for dealing with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
O'Reilly asked Trump whether he "respects" the former KGB agent:
"I do respect him, but I respect a lot of people," Trump said, "That doesn't mean I'm going to get along with him."
Trump said he would appreciate any assistance from Russia in the fight against ISIS terrorists, adding that he would rather get along with the former Cold War-era foe than otherwise.
"But, [Putin] is a killer," O'Reilly said.
"There are a lot of killers," Trump responded, "We've got a lot of killers. What do you think? Our country's so innocent?"
O'Reilly also pressed Trump on whether it is irresponsible for him to make public claims about topics like immigration, without citing facts to back them up.
He pointed to Trump's claim that 3 million illegal aliens allegedly voted in the presidential election, suggesting that large number helped Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton capture the popular vote count.
Trump noted many people agree with his contention that, in states like California, illegal immigrant votes helped Clinton's tally.
"When you see... people who are not citizens and they are the registration rolls... it's a really bad situation," Trump said.
Tune in to the big interview on your local FOX broadcast network during the Super Bowl pre-game show at 4 p.m. ET Sunday!
Be sure to tune in again at 8 p.m. ET on Monday & Tuesday for parts 2 & 3 of Bill's interview on "The O'Reilly Factor" on Fox News Channel!

Asked about Putin, Trump says US isn't 'so innocent'
Russian President Vladimir Putin listens during a meeting in the Kremlin in Moscow, Russia, Friday, Feb. 3, 2017.

Feb. 5, 2017 10:44 AM EST
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump said he respects Vladimir Putin, and when an interviewer called the Russian leader "a killer," Trump said the United States has many of them.
"What do you think? Our country's so innocent?" he told Fox's Bill O'Reilly in an excerpt released by the network. The president's interview was to air Sunday afternoon on the Super Bowl pregame show.
Trump has long expressed a wish for better ties with Moscow, praised Putin and signaled that U.S.-Russia relations could be in line for a makeover, even after U.S. intelligence agencies determined that Russia meddled in the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign to help Trump win against Democrat Hillary Clinton. Putin has called Trump a "very bright and talented man."
During Putin's years in power, a number of prominent Russian opposition figures and journalists have been killed.
In the interview, Trump says, "I do respect him," and then is asked why.
"I respect a lot of people, but that doesn't mean I'm going to get along with him. He's a leader of his country. I say it's better to get along with Russia than not. And if Russia helps us in the fight against ISIS, which is a major fight, and Islamic terrorism all over the world — that's a good thing," Trump said, using an acronym for the Islamic State group. "Will I get along with him? I have no idea."
O'Reilly then said about Putin: "But he's a killer, though. Putin's a killer."
Trump responded: "There are a lot of killers. We've got a lot of killers. What do you think? Our country's so innocent?"
In the excerpt, Trump did not cite specific U.S actions. It was unclear whether he expanded on the comment or added context later in the interview.
"I don't think there's any comparison," said Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., on ABC's "This Week."
"I really do resent that he would say something like that," she said.
The Kremlin had no immediate comment on Trump's interview.
The Senate's top Republican, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, distanced himself from the president.
"Putin's a former KGB agent. He's a thug. He was not elected in a way that most people would consider a credible election. The Russians annexed Crimea, invaded Ukraine and messed around in our elections. And no, I don't think there's any equivalency between the way the Russians conduct themselves and the way the United States does," McConnell told CNN's "State of the Union."
While saying he would not critique "every utterance" by Trump, McConnell said he thinks "America's exceptional, America is different, we don't operate in any way the way the Russians do. I think there's a clear distinction here that all Americans understand, and no, I would not have characterized it that way."
"I obviously don't see this issue the same way he does," McConnell said.
Vice President Mike Pence denied that Trump's comments were a false equivalency between Putin's actions and those of U.S. leaders, adding that Trump was trying to reset the U.S. relationship with Russia, as he promised in the campaign.
"If we were able to work with Russia to hunt down and destroy ISIS and confront radical Islamic terrorism, that would be a good thing," Pence said on NBC's "Meet the Press." ''What you have in President Trump is someone who is not going to look in the rearview mirror so much as looking out the windshield."
O'Reilly also asked Trump to back up his claims that some 3 million to 5 million illegal votes were cast in the election. Trump didn't answer directly, but asserted that immigrants in the U.S. illegally and dead people are on the voter rolls. "It's a really a bad situation, it's really bad," Trump said.
There is no evidence of widespread voter fraud in the Nov. 8 election. Trump won the Electoral College vote but lost the popular vote by nearly 2.9 million votes to Clinton.
Trump recently announced on Twitter that he would call for a "major investigation" into voter fraud, but the plan for Trump to take some type of executive action on the issue has been delayed, senior administration officials said last week.
McConnell, meanwhile, said such an investigation should be handled by the states, which historically have been the ones to probe such allegations.
"There's no evidence that it occurred in such a significant number that would have changed the presidential election, and I don't think we ought to spend any federal money investigating that," McConnell told CNN. "I think the states can take a look at this issue."
The Trump administration on Thursday revised recent U.S. sanctions that had unintentionally prevented American companies from exporting certain consumer electronic products to Russia. The change allows companies to deal with Russia's security service, which licenses such exports under Russian law.
The products were not intended to be covered by the sanctions the Obama administration imposed on Dec. 29 after U.S. intelligence agencies concluded that Russia interfered in the presidential election. The White House denied it was easing sanctions.
Also last week, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley condemned Russia's "aggressive actions" in eastern Ukraine and warned Moscow that U.S. sanctions imposed after its annexation of Crimea will remain until the peninsula is returned to Ukraine.
But she tempered her criticism, saying it was "unfortunate" that she had to condemn Russia in her first appearance at the U.N. Security Council.
"We do want to better our relations with Russia," Haley said.

Abraham Lincoln Was Black And Frederick Douglass Is Alive

Vice-President Mike Pence posted a tweet on Wednesday in which he recognized the beginning of Black History Month by honoring a white man.
The tweet acknowledged President Abraham Lincoln and his work around the abolishment of slavery, but fails to mention the contributions of any black trailblazer.
The good news is that President Donald Trump opened Black History Month by mentioning the renowned abolitionist Frederick Douglass. The bad news is he doesn’t seem to realize he’s dead. Speaking at a Black History Month event on Wednesday, Trump’s comments suggested he thought Douglass was alive.

The Alabama Republican, whose career has been dogged by accusations of racism and bigotry, has passed the first hurdle to the top job and must now be confirmed by the full senate.
The senate judiciary committee voted 11 to nine in favour of Mr Sessions the day after Democrats successfully delayed the vote.

Donald Trump Vows To 'Totally Destroy' Johnson Amendment
Published on Feb 4, 2017 by Mike Malloy
President Donald Trump has announced he will "get rid of and totally destroy" a 60-year-old rule that blocks tax-exempt religious groups from endorsing or opposing political candidates.
The so-called Johnson amendment was introduced by then-Senator Lyndon B Johnson in 1954. It threatens churches and other religious institutions with the loss of their tax-exempt status should they overstep the mark.
At the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington DC on Thursday Mr Trump said: "Jefferson asked, 'Can the liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God?' Among those freedoms is the right to worship according to our own beliefs. That is why I will get rid of and totally destroy the Johnson amendment and allow our representatives of faith to speak freely and without fear of retribution—I will do that."

Trust Records Show Trump Is Still Closely Tied to His Empire
Among the Trump family, Donald Trump Jr., right, is one of two named trustees who have broad legal authority over President Trump’s assets. The elder Mr. Trump can revoke the trustees’ authority at any time.
FEB. 3, 2017
Just days before his inauguration, President-elect Donald J. Trump [ http://www.nytimes.com/topic/person/donald-trump ] stood beside his tax lawyer at a Midtown Manhattan news conference as she announced that he planned to place his vast business holdings in a trust, a move she said would allay fears that he might exploit the Oval Office for personal gain.
However, a number of questions were left unanswered — including who would ultimately benefit from the trust — raising concerns about just how meaningful the move was.
Now, records have emerged that show just how closely tied Mr. Trump remains to the empire he built.
While the president says he has walked away from the day-to-day operations of his business, two people close to him are the named trustees and have broad legal authority over his assets: his eldest son, Donald Jr., and Allen H. Weisselberg, the Trump Organization’s chief financial officer. Mr. Trump, who will receive reports on any profit, or loss, on his company as a whole, can revoke their authority at any time.
What’s more, the purpose of the Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust is to hold assets for the “exclusive benefit” of the president. This trust remains under Mr. Trump’s Social Security [ http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/subjects/s/social_security_us/index.html ] number, at least as far as federal taxes are concerned.

PREVIEW: Trump Tells O'Reilly He 'Respects' Putin in Super Bowl Interview
Feb 04, 2017 // 6:20pm
On Sunday, Bill O'Reilly will have a special Super Bowl pre-game interview with President Trump at 4 p.m. ET on your local FOX broadcast station.
In a special preview, Trump revealed his plans for dealing with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
O'Reilly asked Trump whether he "respects" the former KGB agent:
"I do respect him, but I respect a lot of people," Trump said, "That doesn't mean I'm going to get along with him."
Trump said he would appreciate any assistance from Russia in the fight against ISIS terrorists, adding that he would rather get along with the former Cold War-era foe than otherwise.
"But, [Putin] is a killer," O'Reilly said.
"There are a lot of killers," Trump responded, "We've got a lot of killers. What do you think? Our country's so innocent?"
O'Reilly also pressed Trump on whether it is irresponsible for him to make public claims about topics like immigration, without citing facts to back them up.
He pointed to Trump's claim that 3 million illegal aliens allegedly voted in the presidential election, suggesting that large number helped Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton capture the popular vote count.
Trump noted many people agree with his contention that, in states like California, illegal immigrant votes helped Clinton's tally.
"When you see... people who are not citizens and they are the registration rolls... it's a really bad situation," Trump said.
Tune in to the big interview on your local FOX broadcast network during the Super Bowl pre-game show at 4 p.m. ET Sunday!
Be sure to tune in again at 8 p.m. ET on Monday & Tuesday for parts 2 & 3 of Bill's interview on "The O'Reilly Factor" on Fox News Channel!

Asked about Putin, Trump says US isn't 'so innocent'
Russian President Vladimir Putin listens during a meeting in the Kremlin in Moscow, Russia, Friday, Feb. 3, 2017.
(Alexei Druzhinin/Sputnik, Kremlin Pool Photo via AP)
Feb. 5, 2017 10:44 AM EST
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump said he respects Vladimir Putin, and when an interviewer called the Russian leader "a killer," Trump said the United States has many of them.
"What do you think? Our country's so innocent?" he told Fox's Bill O'Reilly in an excerpt released by the network. The president's interview was to air Sunday afternoon on the Super Bowl pregame show.
Trump has long expressed a wish for better ties with Moscow, praised Putin and signaled that U.S.-Russia relations could be in line for a makeover, even after U.S. intelligence agencies determined that Russia meddled in the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign to help Trump win against Democrat Hillary Clinton. Putin has called Trump a "very bright and talented man."
During Putin's years in power, a number of prominent Russian opposition figures and journalists have been killed.
In the interview, Trump says, "I do respect him," and then is asked why.
"I respect a lot of people, but that doesn't mean I'm going to get along with him. He's a leader of his country. I say it's better to get along with Russia than not. And if Russia helps us in the fight against ISIS, which is a major fight, and Islamic terrorism all over the world — that's a good thing," Trump said, using an acronym for the Islamic State group. "Will I get along with him? I have no idea."
O'Reilly then said about Putin: "But he's a killer, though. Putin's a killer."
Trump responded: "There are a lot of killers. We've got a lot of killers. What do you think? Our country's so innocent?"
In the excerpt, Trump did not cite specific U.S actions. It was unclear whether he expanded on the comment or added context later in the interview.
"I don't think there's any comparison," said Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., on ABC's "This Week."
"I really do resent that he would say something like that," she said.
The Kremlin had no immediate comment on Trump's interview.
The Senate's top Republican, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, distanced himself from the president.
"Putin's a former KGB agent. He's a thug. He was not elected in a way that most people would consider a credible election. The Russians annexed Crimea, invaded Ukraine and messed around in our elections. And no, I don't think there's any equivalency between the way the Russians conduct themselves and the way the United States does," McConnell told CNN's "State of the Union."
While saying he would not critique "every utterance" by Trump, McConnell said he thinks "America's exceptional, America is different, we don't operate in any way the way the Russians do. I think there's a clear distinction here that all Americans understand, and no, I would not have characterized it that way."
"I obviously don't see this issue the same way he does," McConnell said.
Vice President Mike Pence denied that Trump's comments were a false equivalency between Putin's actions and those of U.S. leaders, adding that Trump was trying to reset the U.S. relationship with Russia, as he promised in the campaign.
"If we were able to work with Russia to hunt down and destroy ISIS and confront radical Islamic terrorism, that would be a good thing," Pence said on NBC's "Meet the Press." ''What you have in President Trump is someone who is not going to look in the rearview mirror so much as looking out the windshield."
O'Reilly also asked Trump to back up his claims that some 3 million to 5 million illegal votes were cast in the election. Trump didn't answer directly, but asserted that immigrants in the U.S. illegally and dead people are on the voter rolls. "It's a really a bad situation, it's really bad," Trump said.
There is no evidence of widespread voter fraud in the Nov. 8 election. Trump won the Electoral College vote but lost the popular vote by nearly 2.9 million votes to Clinton.
Trump recently announced on Twitter that he would call for a "major investigation" into voter fraud, but the plan for Trump to take some type of executive action on the issue has been delayed, senior administration officials said last week.
McConnell, meanwhile, said such an investigation should be handled by the states, which historically have been the ones to probe such allegations.
"There's no evidence that it occurred in such a significant number that would have changed the presidential election, and I don't think we ought to spend any federal money investigating that," McConnell told CNN. "I think the states can take a look at this issue."
The Trump administration on Thursday revised recent U.S. sanctions that had unintentionally prevented American companies from exporting certain consumer electronic products to Russia. The change allows companies to deal with Russia's security service, which licenses such exports under Russian law.
The products were not intended to be covered by the sanctions the Obama administration imposed on Dec. 29 after U.S. intelligence agencies concluded that Russia interfered in the presidential election. The White House denied it was easing sanctions.
Also last week, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley condemned Russia's "aggressive actions" in eastern Ukraine and warned Moscow that U.S. sanctions imposed after its annexation of Crimea will remain until the peninsula is returned to Ukraine.
But she tempered her criticism, saying it was "unfortunate" that she had to condemn Russia in her first appearance at the U.N. Security Council.
"We do want to better our relations with Russia," Haley said.
