SUMMARY:
So we have a deal, maybe. Trump and Juncker reached a deal to avert a transatlantic trade war, ease tensions stoked by Trump’s threat and impose tariffs on car imports.

The two leaders agreed to expand European imports of U.S. liquified natural gas and soybeans and lower industrial tariffs on both sides, Trump said. The U.S. and European Union will “hold off on other tariffs” while negotiations proceed, Juncker added.

THE CENTIPEDE BREAKDOWN:

TRUMP: We agreed to work together toward zero tariffs on industrial goods

So the US and EU will reduce tariffs on machinery and components in order to make manufacturing more financially viable in the US and EU.

TRUMP: Deal made to strengthen strategic energy cooperation

Continuing the Bush era policy of the US increasing oil and gas production in order to reduce the wests dependency on Russia and the Middle East.

TRUMP: We'll resolve steel, aluminum tariff issues
JUNCKER: We agree there's global overcapacity in steel sector

Translation: F*** China.

JUNCKER: We agree there are too many illegal subsidies

Translation: F*** China again.

JUNCKER: We agreed on need to crack down on forced tech transfer

Translation: No really, F*** China.

Kevin O’Leary, noted investor and one of the stars of ABC’s “Shark Tank,” says when you cut through all of the noise surrounding Trump’s presidency, he’s doing some “remarkable” things to help businesses, specifically the cutting of regulations.

“The reduction of regulations has been remarkable in how it has accelerated small business,” he said. “These things are quietly being changed, and I really — I credit the administration for doing this. They’re making it easier to run a small business in pretty well every state I’m involved in. So that’s working.”

64 of those arrested, had been previously removed from the United States and returned illegally.

Of those arrested, 29 individuals were previously released from local law enforcement custody with an active detainer. Several had prior felony convictions for serious or violent offenses, such as sexual offenses, weapons charges, and assault, or had past convictions for significant or multiple misdemeanors.

Caroline, 31, offered an apology while promising her wild ways are behind her, as she accepted her sentence of two-years probation.

She also told to police while she was being arrested:

'I shouldn't be handcuffed! You don't know who you're doing this to!'

To divert that the UK has been trying to take down POTUS, they tried to frame Russia and blame them for the "Sum Of All Fears" event. With friends like these, who needs enemies?
