#2 | But reducing the U.S. footprint in Afghanistan would mean fewer U.S. air bases, and American firepower will be less responsive and less available for Afghan troops fighting Taliban militants, said Jason Campbell, a former senior Defense Department official and now a policy researcher at the RAND Corp. think tank.
Plans to scale back the U.S. military mission in Afghanistan comes after Washington pressed NATO allies this year to keep troops in the country, and some governments including Britain agreed to expand their contributions following an appeal from Defense Secretary James Mattis, who resigned on Thursday.
The news shocked and confused NATO allies and the Afghan government, at a moment when the United States is engaged in a major diplomatic push to try to launch peace negotiations.
The abruptness of this I think really hurts our credibility, Campbell said.
For Khalilzad, the move deprives him of his most effective point of leverage before negotiations even have begun in earnest, experts and former officials said.
It will have a devastating effect on peace negotiations, said Seth Jones, a former adviser to the U.S. military now at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a Washington think tank.
The challenge now the U.S. faces is how is it going to get the Taliban to reach an agreement if they can wait and expect a better outcome in the future if the U.S. continues to withdraw its forces? --- |

#1 | https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/taliban-greets-pentagon-s-withdrawal-troops-afghanistan-cries-victory-n950811News that the White House had ordered the Pentagon to draw up plans for a troop withdrawal from Afghanistan provoked widespread criticism that the move would kneecap efforts to broker a peace deal to end America's longest war.
But there was one group on Friday celebrating the reports the Taliban.
Senior members told NBC News the news was a clear indication they were on the verge of victory.
The 17-year-long struggle and sacrifices of thousands of our people finally yielded fruit," said a senior Taliban commander from Afghanistans Helmand province. "We proved it to the entire world that we defeated the self-proclaimed worlds lone super power."
We are close to our destination," added the commander, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the group's leadership had prohibited members from talking to the media about current events. He added that all field commanders had also been told to intensify training efforts to capture four strategic provinces in the run up to the next round of talks between the U.S. and Taliban, which are expected in January.
A Taliban leader in eastern Kunar province, Maulvi Sher Mohammad, said news of withdrawals should serve as a lesson to Americans.
The U.S. people and particularly its rulers should think about what they achieved by invading Afghanistan and by causing so many losses to the citizens of Afghanistan and wasting their own resources on this long war, he said.
The Pentagon declined to comment on the Taliban's claims.
So far, the U.S.'s military campaign, along with billions in aid, have not succeeded in driving out the Taliban and other militants or making the country safe.
In 2017, Afghanistan overtook Iraq to become the deadliest country for terrorism, with one-quarter of all such deaths worldwide happening there. And the number of civilians killed in the country reached a record in the first half of this year, with a surge in suicide attacks claimed by the Islamic State group, according to the United Nations.
Despite years of fighting, only around 65 percent of the Afghan population lives in areas under government control.
The U.S. plans for a withdrawal were due shortly after the new year, according to two defense officials and a person briefed on the matter. They cautioned that no decision has been made, but President Donald Trump wants to see options.
The White House has asked the Pentagon to look into multiple options, including a complete withdrawal, the officials said.
The Taliban sheltered 9/11 mastermind Osama bin Laden and was toppled soon after the 2001 attacks. Since then, the militants have been trying to unseat the U.S.-backed government in Kabul and reimpose their strict version of Shariah. Successes on the battlefield coupled with a recent intensifying efforts to reach a peace deal led by U.S. envoy Zalmay Khalilzad have boosted the movement's confidence and power.
Khalilzad, a former U.S. ambassador to Iraq, Afghanistan and the United Nations, has stressed he is "in a hurry" to secure an agreement, a sign of how eager the White House is to withdraw the 15,000 American troops remaining in the country. --- |

#2 | The White House ultimately declined to comment for Greenblatts article, which was published two days after the email exchanges.
In February, as doubts about Hartnett Whites qualifications and expertise increased even among Senate Republicans the White House withdrew her nomination.
Asked by HuffPost to comment on the emails, a Council on Environmental Quality spokesperson said that while assisting with the nomination process, Loyola forwarded the questions from the December 2017 inquiry to the then-nominee, Hartnett White, because they pertained to her ongoing Senate nomination process.
The White House did not respond to questions. Neither Seal nor Hartnett White answered similar requests.
The episode is precisely the sort of behind-the-scenes coziness between industry and government representatives that concerns ethics watchdog groups.
The emails expose the Trump administration eagerly using energy lobbyists to craft PR and provide answers to journalists queries, said Tyson Slocum, director of Public Citizens energy program. This is wildly inappropriate, and demonstrates the importance of aggressive congressional oversight of the administrations penchant for taking marching orders from corporate lobbyists.
The case also further illustrates the powerful sway the fossil fuel industry and the Koch network has on Trumps administration and its energy policies. From a former Exxon Mobil CEO serving as Trumps first secretary of state to an Environmental Protection Agency and Interior Department that have worked to benefit the industries they supposedly regulate, oil, gas and coal interests have wielded powerful influence over policy at the highest levels of government.
The attempt to install Hartnett White at the helm of Council on Environmental Quality was part of this influence.
The emails illustrate the extent to which the Trump administration is willing to nominate someone who is a mouthpiece for polluters to a top environmental position, said Dave Anderson, policy and communications manager for the Energy and Policy Institute, which monitors attacks on renewable energy by the fossil fuel industry.
A review of the Council on Environmental Qualitys visitor logs shows that Loyola met with Nasi and Gibbs the lobbyists copied on Seals email shortly before Hartnett Whites confirmation hearing. Another email obtained by HuffPost reveals Hartnett White shared her opening statement with Loyola a week in advance of the hearing.
Loyola is one of many former employees and fellows from Koch-backed groups and think tanks now working in the Trump administration. His work calendar from the first half of 2017 suggests hes involved in ongoing efforts to expedite environmental reviews of infrastructure projects. In his writings, published in such conservative outlets as The Federalist, National Review and The Weekly Standard, Loyola has railed against the EPA and climate change policy.
Only a month before he joined Trumps Council on Environmental Quality, Loyola questioned the scientific consensus that humans are driving the climate crisis, employing the common denialist trope of climate alarmism. --- |

#1 | https://www.huffingtonpost.ca/entry/exxon-mobil-trump-environment-kathleen-hartnett-white_us_5c1d006fe4b08aaf7a88135cAn energy industry lawyer whose client list includes Exxon Mobil Corp. crafted comments in defense of a White House nominee for a top environmental post as if they were written by President Donald Trump himself.
The episode, revealed in emails obtained exclusively by HuffPost, further shows the fossil fuel industrys enormous reach into the Trump administration.
In December 2017, journalist Mark Greenblatt of Scripps emailed the White House several questions on the nomination of Kathleen Hartnett White to head its Council on Environmental Quality, which coordinates federal environmental policy under the National Environmental Policy Act. Greenblatts query included four questions addressed specifically to the president about Hartnett White, a climate change denier who works for the Koch brothers-backed Texas Public Policy Foundation. Last year alone, the Charles Koch Foundation donated more than $1.8 million to the conservative organization.
An email chain, obtained by HuffPost from the Council on Environmental Quality through a freedom of information request, details what actually transpired behind the scenes.
White House press officers informed the Council on Environmental Quality of Greenblatts questions. The councils associate director for regulatory reform, Mario Loyola, a political appointee who formerly worked with Hartnett White at the Texas Public Policy Foundation, then forwarded the questions to Hartnett White.
The next morning, Hartnett White wrote back to Loyola, and forwarded him answers to the journalists questions drafted by Derek Seal, an attorney at the law firm Winstead who currently represents Exxon Mobil.
Here are some sample responses that I like, Hartnett White told Loyola.
Copied on the email from Seal were several other energy industry attorneys and lobbyists. Among them were Michael Nasi, a critic of EPA regulations who represents coal and mining interests, and Gary Gibbs, who lobbies for the utility American Electric Power. Nasi also recently took over the Texas Public Policy Foundations Life:Powered PR campaign, which promotes fossil fuels and downplays renewable energy.
I would answer the questions you want to answer, Seal coached the White House in his email, rather than try to answer the loaded questions that have been asked.
Seal nonetheless crafted answers to each of the four questions in Greenblatts original query. In response to a question asking whether Trump knew of Hartnett Whites role in underreporting radiation levels in drinking water when she led the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality in the mid 2000s which she first denied in her Senate confirmation hearing, but Greenblatts reporting showed otherwise Seal suggested this answer: The President is aware that Ms. White made thousands of decisions while she was at TCEQ. Many of those decisions where highly technical and based on her expertise and the expertise of her staff.
To the question of whether Trump still supports Hartnett Whites nomination in light of the troubling answers she gave at her hearing, Seal offered: The Administration has not been provided with any credible reason not to support Ms. Whites nomination.
Seal then signed off: The President.
The emails also reveal that Hartnett White spoke with Seal on the phone about his comments, and that Loyola tried to contact him as well. --- |

#1 | https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/422471-mcconnell-rejects-using-nuclear-option-on-wallSenate Majority Leader Mitch McConnells (R-Ky.) spokesman says the Senate does not have enough votes to change its rules and pass border wall funding with a simple majority.
The Leader has said for years that the votes are not there in the Conference to use the nuclear option. Just this morning, several Senators put out statements confirming their opposition, and confirming that there is not a majority in the conference to go down that road, said David Popp, McConnells communications director.
Popp issued his statement after several Republican senators voiced opposition to holding a procedural vote known as the nuclear option to change the Senates rules and make it easier to pass a funding bill that includes $5.7 billion to build a border wall.
Trump urged McConnell Friday morning to pull out all the stops to fund the wall.
Mitch, use the Nuclear Option and get it done! Our Country is counting on you! he tweeted.
The House passed on Thursday a short-term government funding bill that provides $5.7 billion to construct a border wall but Democrats say they will defeat it in the Senate.
While Republicans have a 51-49 majority in the upper chamber, Democrats can block the House bill with a filibuster or other procedural objections, which require 60 votes to overcome.
Sen. Steve Daines (R-Mont.), who is up for reelection in 2020 in a state that Trump won by 20 points, has urged colleagues to invoke the nuclear option to lower the vote threshold vote stopping a filibuster.
Trump praised Daines for the bold position.
Thank you @SteveDainesfor being willing to go with the so-called nuclear option in order to win on DESPERATELY NEEDED Border Security! Have my total support, Trump tweeted.
Republican Sens. Jeff Flake (Ariz.) and Lamar Alexander (Tenn.) immediately announced Friday morning that they would not vote for the nuclear option.
The retiring Senate president pro tempore, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), also said he opposed the idea.
He said the Senates traditional 60-vote threshold for quashing a filibuster has prevented our country for decades from sliding toward liberalism. RIP in peace --- |

The story was picked up by Fox & Friends as well. In his Ingraham appearance, Kolfage noted he had raised over $600,000 for Justice Kavanaugh with John Hawkins, who founded Right Wing News. (According to the crowdfunding page for Kavanaugh the campaign now closed short of $500,000, after some people withdrew money due to the change of beneficiary).
Hawkins started a Go Fund Me for Kavanaugh around the time of his contentious nomination hearings that initially raised about $600,000; when Kavanaugh said he couldnt accept the money, Hawkins pledged to donate it to the Catholic Archdiocese of Washington DC. Quartzs calls to the Archdiocese were unanswered late on Thursday afternoon, so it unclear if they received the cash. --- |

Mulvaney is due to start his new job at the end of the year. Trumps announcement of Mulvaneys appointment followed a troubled hiring process that saw several of his preferred picks refuse the role. Trump reportedly started regretting his appointment after seeing the video of Mulvaney from a week before the 2016 election saying: Yes, I am supporting Donald Trump, but Im doing so despite the fact that I think hes a terrible human being. Axios reports Trump was furious when he heard about the footagehe reportedly asked one adviser: Did you know [Mulvaney] called me a terrible human being back during the campaign? A spokeswoman for Mulvaney dismissed the remarks as old news and said he changed his mind about Trump after they met.

#1 | https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/422426-fox-friends-co-host-trump-just-refounded-isis-by-pulling-troops-outFox & Friends co-host Brian Kilmeade on Friday said President Trump had "re-founded ISIS" and was giving Russia "a big win" with his decision to pull U.S. troops from Syria.
Kilmeade made the remarks during an interview with White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
He also is doing exactly what he criticized President Obama for doing. He said President Obama is the founder of ISIS, Kilmeade pointed out. He just refounded ISIS because they have 30,000 men there and they are already striking back with our would-be evacuation. The president is really on the griddle with this.
Sanders said she respectfully and vehemently disagreed with Kilmeade.
"The idea that the president has had anything to do with helping ISIS reemerge is absolutely outrageous," she said.
Leaving is helping, Kilmeade said. Leaving is helping.
Sanders responded that Trump would "destroy" ISIS.
If ISIS wants to pick a fight with somebody, they sure as heck dont want to pick one with Donald Trump because he will destroy them and defeat them, Sanders said. Hes made that extremely clear.
Sanders said that U.S. forces have wiped out 99 percent of ISIS in Syria.
Kilmeade responded that the word on the ground among U.S. military is different from what the White House claims.
The hosts then abruptly wished Sanders a merry Christmas and ended the segment.
Kilmeade, a frequent supporter of the president's, earlier in the morning fiercely criticized Trump for pulling U.S. forces out of Syria and leaving Kurdish forces in the area alone.
We are now abandoning the Kurds who are about three weeks away from total slaughter, Kilmeade said. All they have done for us is show total allegiance to us and they trusted us, and now we will never get another ally in that region.
Trump has vowed to withdraw from Syria, which is in the midst of a civil war, since he was on the campaign trail in 2016.
He announced the decision to pull troops from the country on Wednesday.
Defense Secretary James Mattis, who disagreed with the decision, on Thursday said he would resign.
In a letter notable for its breaks with Trump, he said the president deserved a secretary "whose views are better aligned with yours." --- |

so will GoFundMe refund the money when this goes bust or does the organizer just get to take the money and run?
GoFundMe isn't like Kickstarter, where the default is that you set a goal and if it's not funded then no one pays. Since GoFundMe is set up more like charity, you get to pocket the money even if you don't raise all of it (this makes sense from their typical usage, since often times the "goal" is a nebulous thing and just helping out with bills, doing something nice, etc. don't have strict budgets).
The organizer can choose to return the funds and it's set up so that refunding your backers isn't hard, but he would have to choose to do so. Right now, he's claiming that if he doesn't get the money he'll refund all of it. My guess is that he's not going to outright scam people, but instead of returning the money he'll probably donate it to something dumb Which is against GFM's rules. The reality is that no matter how the right-wing shitbrains will try to spin it, it's in GFM's best interest to cancel this and return everyone's money. They're better off getting yelled at by the idiots on Fox News than they are leaving this up knowing this guy's history. --- |

#1 | https://www.cfr.org/blog/115-percent-trumps-china-tariff-revenue-goes-paying-angry-farmersBillions of Dollars are pouring into the coffers of the U.S.A., tweeted President Trump last month, because of the Tariffs being charged to China.
It would be nice if it were true. But it is, in fact, doubly false.
First, tariffs are not being charged to China. They are being charged to American firms importing Chinese goods. As the left-hand bar in the graphic above shows, such firms will pay about $8.4 billion in tariffs on China imports by the end of 2018.
Second, this tariff revenue does not remain in U.S. government coffers. As shown in the right-hand bar above, all of it and more is being paid out to American farmers as partial compensation for their losses from Chinese tariff retaliation. The U.S. government has already committed to paying out $1.2 billion more to angry American farmers than it will take in this year from angry American firms.
By launching a trade war with China, therefore, the president has simultaneously raised taxes on U.S. companies and lost the government money. And with the farm constituency critical to his 2020 re-election hopes, the losses are only set to mount going forward. --- |
