He was inheriting a tense relationship. Not long before he took the job, Clapper, his predecessor, had released a report summarizing the intelligence community’s conclusion that Russian President Vladimir Putin had personally ordered the Russian meddling campaign in the 2016 elections, and had done so to benefit Trump. The president has several times cast doubt on these findings. Within days of tapping Coats for the DNI job in January 2017, Trump held a press conference at which he stated, “I think it was Russia” responsible for the election meddling, then reversed himself at the same event, saying, “It could have been others also.”

She met on March 20, 2017, with representatives from the Pennyrile Area Development District, who had gotten similar praise and were interested in discussing their long-running priority of redesignating the Breathitt Pennyrile Parkway as Interstate 169. President Donald Trump signed into law a bill sponsored by Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), designating the highway I-169 in May 2017.

Hi, Leslie good question I gave you the estimates. We think it's probably 40% to 50%. So Q4 firstly in spreads were LIBOR 49 today they are LIBOR of 400. Secondly spreads were 928 and 916 just probably a couple of days ago that would imply about probably 40% to 60%. So think of it as $0.10 to $0.12 per share if we ended the quarter today. So who knows what the market holds, but you would expect if the quarter ended today that you would have a decent amount that will back through and reverse.

Even for presidents who haven’t been accused of habitually distorting reality, the “truth to power” ethos can be unpleasant. It’s not fun to hear, for example, that the Taliban controls large portions of Afghanistan when you are determined to pull troops out, as Obama discovered before Trump. Presidents are not obligated to make policy based on intelligence assessments alone—and as examples from the Bay of Pigs to Iraq illustrate, intelligence officials can be wrong. As a matter of national security, though, presidents are obligated to at least consider the facts.

And for us the 3% rule is simple, which is this sector doesn't have the ability like the rest of sectors to take out excess capacity. And so you end up having in the sector ROE, the effective trade below book value, the ROE is below the cost of capital to me, which means the sector has too much capacity and the 3% rule is the biggest impediment for it to take out capacity because what you would have in any other industry you saw it from paper and packaging et cetera, you would have activism or shareholders' involvement and governance to actually force M&A, the forced rationalization of capacity and you haven't had that in this industry.

We think western brands won’t want to just observe the changes underway in China during 2019, they will want to participate. With 5G roll-out and connected TV achieving real scale, it will be an exciting year in China.

Trump’s threats to security clearances—especially of a still-serving official like Ohr—may actually be more consequential to the intelligence workforce than his expressions of disregard for their product. In a profession that often deals in classified information, livelihoods depend on clearances. Then, of course, there was the five-week government shutdown, which stalled investigations and delayed paychecks at the FBI. The FBI Agents Association released a report during the shutdown in which field agents testified to damaged morale. Otherwise, it’s hard to measure the impact the president’s attitude has had across the 17-agency intelligence community.     

Their routing and switching gear sit in the core of telecom networks where traffic is aggregated—the very area that intelligence experts fear could be targeted by Chinese spyware.
