Trump leaves the Meeting with Democrats abruptly

In the fierce debate around the wall on the border to Mexico Donald Trump has hit a peak with the representatives of the Democrats abruptly abandoned. It was "a total waste of time," wrote the American President on Wednesday on Twitter.

The democratic Leader in the Senate, Chuck Schumer, said the same time in front of journalists that the President had asked Pelosi whether the required wall support. As Pelosi did this in the negative, whether Trump got up and left. To Schumers, the President proposed "somehow on the table". Then he was gone "just got up and out". Once again, Trump not to have had a "tantrum", "because it is according to his will," said the Democrat.

Vice-President Mike Pence, who was at the Meeting also present, but denied that Trump had lost control. To the beginning of the Meeting the President of the sweets distributed, reported Pence.

An end to the shutdown in sight

Wheeler durable EPO-chief

Trump has nominated the interim head of the environmental authority, the EPA, the former coal lobbyist, Andrew Wheeler, as the permanent authorities chief. The White house submitted the official nomination on Wednesday to the Senate, which must approve the hiring decision. In the Congress chamber Trumps the Republicans have the majority. The US President had praised in November, Wheeler's work as "fantastic" and announced, to entrust him permanently with the EPA chief post.

Wheeler directs the EPA, since the previous authorities chief Scott Pruitt had resigned in July because of a series of scandals. As before, Pruitt Wheeler is working systematically to make a series of environmental regulations to undo, which had been decided under trump's predecessor, Barack Obama.

As environmental protection requirements for coal-fired power plants have been loosened. In addition, the emission standards for cars are to be attenuated from the year 2025. However, several States filed a lawsuit against these decisions. The environmental organization Sierra Club explained in November, to Wheeler, the EPA's lead was as if "you give a thief the key to the locker".

If the Democrat-led government of California "can't get the curve, which is little likely," he instructed Fema to the termination of the payments, wrote Trump on Wednesday when the short message service Twitter.

"billions of dollars are sent to the state of California for forest fires, which would happen with a clean forest-Management never," wrote Trump. "It is a shameful Situation in terms of life and money."
