Peter Navarro says 'several sticking points' for Canada trade talks before midnight deadline

 

The White House must give Congress the text of a proposed trade deal with Mexico by midnight to proceed under "fast track" trade rules. Trump left the door open to including Canada when he sent a formal one-month notice to Congress.

 

Navarro said there's "broad agreement" on some matters, but that there remains an impasse with Canada on the country's dairy market and support for continued trade dispute-resolution panels.

 

"Here's where things stand. The broad brush of the deal is two things: one is we want to restore North America as a manufacturing powerhouse by reclaiming the supply chain. The deal in principle with Mexico will do that. If Canada comes in, that's great," Navarro said. "There's also a modernization component that brings in things like protection for digital, [intellectual property], pharma, and things like that. That's where things stand. There is broad agreement on virtually all of that. There are several sticking points. You mentioned one, dairy is another."

Lindsey Graham promises 'full scale' probe into Democrats' handling of Ford-Kavanaugh allegation

 

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., vowed Sunday to launch a thorough inquiry into Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee to find out whether there was any wrongdoing in how they managed the sexual misconduct allegation Christine Blasey Ford leveled at Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

 

"We're going to do a wholesale, full scale investigation of what I think was a despicable process to deter it from happening again," Graham said during an interview on ABC News' "This Week."

 

"The FBI will do a supplemental background investigation, then I'm going to call for an investigation of what happened in this committee. Who betrayed Dr. Ford's trust? Who in Feinstein's office recommended Katz as a lawyer? Why did Ms. Ford not know that the committee was willing to go to California?" Graham continued, referring to Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., and Debra Katz, one of Ford's attorneys who has been involved in Democratic politics in the past.
