Resolute Reads FIVE STORIES PRESIDENT TRUMP DOESN'T WANT YOU TO MISS

FIVE STORIES PRESIDENT TRUMP DOESN'T WANT YOU TO MISS Vice President Pence: A Partisan Impeachment, a Profile in Courage -The Wall Street Journal “As the U.S. Senate takes up a purely partisan impeachment, and the mainstream media focuses on what Republican senators may do, it may be timely to consult Kennedy’s definition of political courage and why he considered one statesman in particular worthy of admiration,” Vice President Mike Pence writes. In 1868, it was Republicans who tried to impeach a President they didn’t like on “dubious constitutional grounds.” In what one historian called “the most heroic act in American history,” Sen. Edmund Ross of Kansas ignored political pressure and voted to acquit President Andrew Johnson. “Who, among the Senate Democrats, will stand up to the passions of their party this time?” Trump Honors National Champion LSU Tigers at White House -Fox News “Just days after they capped off a 15-0 national championship season in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome with President Trump in attendance, the LSU Tigers stopped by the White House on Friday to be honored by the commander in chief. They topped Clemson 42-25 to grab their first title since the 2007-2008 season,” Tyler Olson reports.  Watch: President and First Lady attend the National Championship game Trump's Phase One China Trade Deal Result of Negotiator-in-Chief's Courage -Fox Business “For decades, as a result of political short-sightedness and economic expediency, policymakers have acquiesced to Communist-controlled China,” Rep. Jodey Arrington (R-TX) writes. “At this critical juncture in history, we are fortunate to have a Negotiator-in-Chief who understands that China is the biggest existential threat to America and, more importantly, who has the political courage to do something about it.”  History made: President Trump signs historic deal with China Senate Approves USMCA Trade Deal in Landslide Vote -New York Post “The Senate in a landslide vote Thursday passed a new trade deal with Mexico and Canada, giving President Trump his second high-profile trade win in as many days,” Mark Moore reports. USMCA will replace the Clinton-era, job-killing NAFTA and “passed by a 89-10 vote, sending it to the president’s desk for his signature.” VP Pence: ‘USMCA Is a Huge Win for American Workers and American Farmers’ Pelosi’s Impeachment Offenses -The Wall Street Journal “The Senate can now do better by the Constitution by holding a trial that judges President Trump without validating the partisan House process and its weak case . . . The House hearings blocked GOP witnesses and limited cross-examination. Despite selective leaks and a pro-impeachment media, they failed to move public opinion,” The Wall Street Journal editorial board writes.
