A Letter from the President to the President of the Senate
TEXT OF A LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT, TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE April 11, 2017
Dear Mr. President:
Consistent with the condition set forth in the Senate resolution of advice and consent to ratification of the Protocol to the North Atlantic Treaty on the Accession of Montenegro of March 28, 2017, and based on the recommendation of the Department of State, I hereby certify to the Senate that:
(i) the inclusion of Montenegro in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) will not have the effect of increasing the overall percentage share of the United States in the common budgets of NATO; and
(ii) the inclusion of Montenegro in NATO does not detract from the ability of the United States to meet or to fund its military requirements outside the North Atlantic area.
Sincerely, DONALD J. TRUMP

President Donald J. Trump’s Weekly Address
My Fellow Americans,
We're only 11 weeks in, but already my administration has achieved historic progress for the American people – in fact, 93% of our domestic manufacturers have expressed optimism in the future, a record.
The confidence we are seeing in our Nation is about jobs and opportunity – but it's also about safety and security.
Security begins at the border – as a candidate, I pledged to take swift and decisive action to secure the border, and that is exactly what I have done. We inherited a full-fledged border crisis – it was a disaster. Yet, with quick and bold steps, we have so far exceeded even the most bullish predictions for the progress we could make in so short a period of time. Last month, we saw a 64% reduction in illegal immigration on our southern border.

WORLD SPOTLIGHT REPORT: Putin says trust erodes under Trump, Moscow icily receives Tillerson (REU)
Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday trust had eroded between the United States and Russia under President Donald Trump, as Moscow delivered an unusually hostile reception to Secretary of State Rex Tillerson in a face-off over Syria.

Editorial Note: Well contrary to news reports earlier, looks like Putin did meet with the Secretary of State. That's a start. He took the opportunity to bash the US, instead of trying to work for the greater good however, like reigning in his pal Assad to stop the use of chemical weapons on his own people.
