GOP/Dem Deal Keeps Catch and Release for Thousands of Illegal Aliens
Republican-Democrat border deal keeps current rates of Catch and Release of illegal aliens, border crossers, and adults who have trafficked children across the U.S.-Mexico border at around the same level as this previous year.
As Breitbart News reported, the Republican and Democrat lawmakers’ deal includes about $1.3 billion in border wall funding — a fraction of the $5.7 billion that President Trump had requested — that can only be used in certain areas of the southern border and must be the bollard fencing that the Bush and Obama administrations previously deployed. The funding will add 55 miles of new barriers at the border.
Additionally, the deal keeps the amount of detention space that federal immigration officials need to detain illegal aliens and border crossers at about current levels. As of today, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is only funded for about 40,250 beds in detention centers

Nick Cannon Calls Out Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, and Sarah Silverman for Past Use of Blackface
Nick Cannon went after comedians Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, and Sarah Silverman for their past use of blackface in a social media post this week, saying, “Tell the Jimmys to holla at me!”
“Are these your Kings of Late Night??? JimmyFallon JimmyKimmel you know I’m always on the side of the comedian and never pander to the sensitive, but I feel there needs to be some “truth & reconciliation” discussions and teachable moments amongst our communities,” Nick Cannon said.
“I’m ready and willing for the discourse, so who wants to step up to the table first? In the meantime, I’ll just leave this right here.”

Trump Says He May Let Trade Truce Deadline ‘Slide’
Donald Trump said Tuesday that he could let the March 1st deadline for the trade truce with China “slide” if the two sides are close to making a “real deal.”
U.S. officials are in Beijing for the latest round of trade talks. While the American side has expressed optimism, officials caution that there are still many large issues between the U.S. and China. In particular, the U.S. is demanding structural changes to the Chinese economy, including an end to state-subsidies of Chinese-owned businesses and an end to policies that transfer technology intellectual property from U.S. firms to Chinese competitors.
“If we’re close to a deal, where we think we’re going to make a real deal and it’s going to get done, I can see myself letting that slide for a little while,” Trump said Tuesday. “But generally speaking, I’m not inclined to do that.”
Too early. Not close enough to Friday to make the DEm's sweat. I'm inclined to agree with you.

Trump Lied About Getting Special Permission From El Paso Fire Dept, Says Fire Dept
You spin me right round, baby right round…=
resident Donald Trump told the crowd at his rally in El Paso, Texas, on Monday that he got special permission from the El Paso Fire Department to let 10,000 people inside the El Paso County Coliseum.
El Paso Fire Department spokesman Enrique D. Aguilar told The El Paso Times that not only did the fire department not give Trump special permission, but the Coliseum had about 6,500 people in it during the president’s rally. Aguilar says that number was at capacity and well within its standard allowance.
The spokesman added that “it might be 10,000 with the people outside” total, but the fire department didn’t track the number of people outside the venue. While the number Trump quoted about his attendees might not have been far off, he blatantly lied that he got special permission, according to Aguilar.

Trump says he found $23 billion for Wall from ‘other sources’
Unfazed by a congressional deal giving him only $1.3 billion for a barrier on the US-Mexico border, President Donald Trump is saying he found twenty times that much for overall border security “from other sources.”
Details of the “compromise” negotiated by congressional Democrats and Republicans ahead of the February 15 deadline have not yet been made public, but information leaked to the media suggested the Democrats have offered only $1.375 billion, and explicitly prohibited a concrete wall.

UK govt-commissioned report urges regulator for tech giants to fight fake news
British government-commissioned report has called for a regulator to oversee online platforms such as Facebook and Google to help weed out “fake news.” Academic Frances Cairncross said tech firms should be obliged to help users understand the origin of news articles and the trustworthiness of their sources. A regulator is needed because “this task is too important to leave entirely to the judgment of commercial entities,” she said. Google said on Tuesday that it looked forward “to discussing the proposals further to ensure sustainable, high quality journalism in the UK,” AP reports. The government should also consider direct funding for local news and offer tax relief to support public-interest journalism, according to Cairncross. She was asked to investigate the sustainability of quality journalism amid declining newspaper sales and falling revenues.
