“We watched as things got more tense, but we thought the same thing we always did — they won’t come after Americans,” said Amber Langford, 43, a midwife in La Mora. “They would stop us at a checkpoint and ask what we had. We’d say ‘honey’ or ‘potatoes,’ and they’d let us go.”
“Trump not going to Warsaw now. Pence going,” Kurt D. Volker, the administration’s then-special envoy for Ukraine, texted the country’s defense minister. “I’m so sorry.”
Ambassador Bill Taylor’s testimony has been released on the same day Democrats announced details for the first public Trump impeachment inquiry hearings. Reaction and analysis on ‘The Five.’ #TheFive #FoxNews

President Donald Trump on Thursday slammed a report from The Washington Post that said he had asked Attorney General William Barr to hold a news conference defending his controversial call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
The president, through his subordinates, indirectly asked Barr to publicly declare that Trump had broken no laws in the July 25 call, The Washington Post reported Wednesday night, citing people familiar with the matter. That phone call is now at the center of the House impeachment probe into Trump’s efforts to get Ukraine to announce investigations into the Bidens and the 2016 presidential election.
The Post reports that Barr decided not to hold the presser. Trump tweeted Thursday morning that “Bill Barr did not decline my request to talk about Ukraine” — disputing Barr’s reported refusal while appearing to acknowledge that he did ask the attorney general to discuss Ukraine publicly.
But in a follow-up, Trump seemed to broaden his denial. “The degenerate Washington Post MADE UP the story about me asking Bill Barr to hold a news conference. Never happened, and there were no sources!” Trump tweeted.
Trump continued to rail against the story as the day wore on. In another tweet, he revived his nickname for the Post — linking it to Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, who owns the paper — and called out each of the three reporters by name.
“A garbage newspaper!” he tweeted.
White House spokesman Hogan Gidley said that Trump “has nothing but respect for AG Barr and greatly appreciates the work he’s done on behalf of the country — and no amount of shady sources with clear intent to divide, smear, and slander will change that.”

Most other public polls conducted in Kentucky over the last 13 months showed the race moving in either direction within a single-digit margin — close but fluid. None showed anything close to a 17-point advantage for Mr. Beshear.
Private polling for other Republican committees, which Ms. McDaniel and her staff have access to, also depicted a much closer race. The Republican Governors Association’s survey showed Mr. Bevin leading Mr. Beshear by two points two weeks before the race, according to someone who saw the results. In the final week, the gap closed to dead even.
Republicans have given Mr. Trump credit for victories in every recent election where he campaigned for the Republican candidate, including the governors’ races in Louisiana and Mississippi. The R.N.C. also said it noticed, in the September special election for a North Carolina House seat, a marked improvement for the Republican candidate, Dan Bishop, in the area around Fayetteville, where Mr. Trump held an election eve rally. That county went Democratic in 2018 by more than four points. But Mr. Bishop won in September by 0.2 percentage points, which the R.N.C. said was higher than it had expected given historical precedent.
It is difficult to assess whether Mr. Trump deserves credit for closing the gap in these races — where just a few thousand votes has made the difference — given the many factors that can swing close elections. In heavily Democratic Fayette County, Kentucky, where Mr. Trump campaigned on Monday, Mr. Bevin trailed by 33 points, a larger margin of defeat than other Republicans in recent elections.
Republicans could simply be holding their noses and voting for candidates they are not in love with so their party does not lose. This phenomenon, known as “coming home,” is not reliable in campaigns but it is familiar to anyone who worked on Mr. Trump’s behalf in 2016.
During the final weeks of his campaign, Mr. Trump sent his running mate, Mike Pence, to round up votes for him around the country. Mr. Pence’s plea to voters was, “It’s time to come home.”

Trump administration officials have been considering lifting the latest tranche of tariffs levied on Sept. 1 on more than $100 billion of Chinese goods, assuming China agrees to make changes to its economic practices.
Those tariffs, which include household products like electronics, are weighing more heavily on American consumers than the initial rounds, which were more focused on technology and manufacturing industries.
The trade war’s toll continues to show up in economic data, with tariffs hurting growth in agricultural and manufacturing states. New figures released by the Commerce Department on Thursday showed that while the United States economy continues to grow, it is particularly sluggish in the Midwest, where farmers have faced fierce retaliation from China.
In the second quarter of this year, which ran from April to June, gross domestic product rose by an annual rate of just 1.1 percent in Wisconsin, Michigan, Iowa, Illinois and Georgia. G.D.P. grew by just 1 percent in Indiana and Kentucky.
Some officials, including top trade negotiator Robert Lighthizer, argued against the imposition of the Sept. 1 tariffs in the first place, and have not been opposed to trading them in return for significant concessions from China, people familiar with their deliberations say. Reductions of the rate of other tariff tranches have also been under discussion.
American officials have emphasized that any moves depend on China taking more aggressive action to protect American intellectual property, and that Mr. Trump will make the final determination.
From a longer-term perspective, American officials have also discussed the deal with China as a series of agreements, each one of which would be associated with some degree of tariff removal. But how many of the tariffs would be removed, and in return for what concessions, remain big outstanding questions.

China’s Commerce Ministry said Thursday that Beijing had agreed with Washington to lift existing trade tariffs between the two nations in phases.
Gao Feng, a ministry spokesperson for China’s Commerce Ministry, said that both sides had agreed to simultaneously cancel some existing tariffs on one another’s goods, according to the country’s state broadcaster.
The ministry spokesperson said that both sides were closer to a so-called “phase one” trade agreement following constructive negotiations over the past two weeks.
One important condition for a limited trade agreement, Feng insisted, was that the U.S. and China must remove the same amount of charges at the same time.
Fresh hopes of a “phase one” trade agreement prompted U.S. stock index futures to rally Thursday morning, with Dow futures poised to open up more than 120 points.
Market participants had expected the two economic giants to sign a deal later this month, after both Washington and Beijing spoke of progress in talks late last week.
However, Reuters reported on Wednesday that a meeting between President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping could be postponed until December — delaying a chance for the two leaders to sign an interim trade deal.
The world’s two largest economies have imposed tariffs on billions of dollars’ worth of one another’s goods since the start of 2018, battering financial markets and souring business and consumer sentiment.
The Trump administration has been putting increasing pressure on Beijing to curb massive subsidies to state-owned companies and stop the forced transfer of American technology to Chinese firms.
But, analysts are skeptical that a “phase one” trade deal will effectively tackle these issues, suggesting the two economic giants will need a more comprehensive agreement before market sentiment can be boosted sustainably.

Soon after calling Mr. Giuliani to say that he might represent Mr. Cohen, Mr. Costello emailed Mr. Cohen and said, “Rudy was thrilled and said this could not be a better situation for the President or you,” noting that Mr. Giuliani knew and trusted Mr. Costello. Mr. Giuliani, he added, “said thank you for opening this back channel of communication.”
Mr. Costello ultimately had a falling out with Mr. Cohen and never formally represented him.
Few details of the current criminal inquiry focused on Mr. Giuliani have been revealed publicly, and he has not been accused of wrongdoing. But the investigation could cover a broad range of his conduct, including his work with two associates and former Ukrainian prosecutors.
Together, the men tried to dig up dirt about former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., a candidate in the 2020 presidential election, and his son Hunter, and increase pressure on other targets of Mr. Trump and his allies, including the American ambassador to Ukraine.
The investigation into Mr. Giuliani appears to have grown out of a 14-month inquiry that has already resulted in charges against the associates and two other men. The associates, Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, were indicted last month on campaign finance violations, some of which were linked to work the two men did for Mr. Giuliani in Ukraine. They have pleaded not guilty.
One of the federal prosecutors handling that case said in court two weeks ago that the investigation was ongoing, though “no decision about any type of additional charges” had yet been made.
Mr. Giuliani was briefly represented by Jon A. Sale, a former Watergate prosecutor who also worked as a federal prosecutor in the Manhattan office, in connection with a subpoena he received last month from House impeachment investigators.
On Mr. Giuliani’s behalf, Mr. Sale declined to cooperate with the impeachment inquiry, writing on Oct. 15 that the material sought was “beyond the scope of legitimate inquiry” and a violation of attorney-client and executive privilege. On the same day, Mr. Giuliani said on Twitter that Mr. Sale would no longer be representing him because the matter related to the subpoena was over and, “at this time, I do not need a lawyer.”

LAS VEGAS — A proposed ordinance to criminalize camping or sleeping on downtown streets when beds are available at established shelters passed Wednesday night against a backdrop of protests in and around city hall.
Protesters flooded the Las Vegas City Council chambers with signs reading “Poverty is not crime” and “Eat the rich,” while others led led chants of disapproval aimed at Mayor Carolyn Goodman, who sponsored the bill, and council members.
“Housing not handcuffs! Housing not handcuffs! … Hey hey, ho ho — the war on the poor has got to go!” they yelled.
None of it swayed the council, which voted 5-2 in favor of the law. The measure will apply to the city’s downtown urban core, not the Las Vegas Strip, which is overseen by a different jurisdiction.
“This is flawed but it is a start,” Goodman said, noting Las Vegas’ economy relies on its image as an attractive international tourist attraction.“We have been having these conversations for 20 years, and we must have results.”
A line of people waiting to comment on the ordinance wrapped around the chambers. Before the first comment, Goodman warned the crowd that anyone speaking out in the audience risked being kicked out of the meeting.
“You can’t hear me if you keep screaming,” Goodman said, but yelling continued in the crowd. “Excuse me, let’s try to have some manners.”
The ordinance represents another chapter in the city’s decades-long effort to sweep homeless people off the streets of downtown – a campaign that has included some of the country’s harshest tactics.
The council criminalized food handouts to people in public, closed parks and outlawed naps within 500 feet of feces – a blunder that was later repealed. The former mayor – Carolyn Goodman’s husband, the flamboyant mob attorney Oscar Goodman – even proposed moving the homeless to an abandoned prison 30 miles away.
On Wednesday, Las Vegas residents and homeless struggling to survive on the streets stepped up to the microphone and rejected the proposed law.
If there’s money to build stadiums in Southern Nevada, there’s money to help people without roofs over their heads, said George Allen, a homeless man working in the home care industry,
“We need to be able to work together,” he said. “We need to find a way.”
Stretch Sanders, president of All Shades United, called the council “lousy” and alleged the mayor is out to feed herself – not “feeding the block.”
The ordinance “is a total camouflage for doing nothing,” said Las Vegas attorney Gerald Gillock. His office is in the 400 block of South 4th Street, where he encounters the homeless on the streets every day. “It doesn’t require the city to do one single thing.”
Protesters in the crowd peppered the public comment portion of the meeting with outbursts of jeers and cheers.
Goodman asked security to escort a man and a woman out of the chambers.
“Death to the bourgeoisie,” the man yelled, raising a red protest sign in the air. “Remove me!”
Several Democratic presidential candidates have weaved the Las Vegas ordinance into their campaigns – a strategy that has drawn criticism from GOP leaders.
“Democrat candidates for President opposing the ordinance the Las Vegas City Council is voting on today are advocating for the homeless to continue suffering on our streets,” said Nevada Republican Party Chairman Michael J. McDonald in a statement. “Their pandering has also exposed them for the hypocrites they truly are.”
The GOP backlash follows opposition of the ordinance from former Vice President Joe Biden, Sens. Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, Kamala Harris and Cory Booker, former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julian Castro and businessman Tom Steyer.

After launching a round of attacks aimed at Warren’s fellow Democratic 2020 contender, former Vice President Joe BidenJoe BidenBiden allies see boost in Tuesday’s election results Trump rails against House Democrats, impeachment inquiry during campaign rally: ‘It’s all a hoax’ Trump acknowledges Warren’s rise in the polls, revives ‘Pocahontas’ slur MORE, Trump fell into a familiar refrain aimed at the progressive Democratic senator.
“I don’t even know, because I’m looking at Pocahontas, can you imagine?” Trump said. “No, no — Pocahontas is starting to rise from the ashes.”
“I thought she was gone, we hit her very hard six months ago,” he added, referring to his campaign’s attacks aimed at Warren for misrepresenting herself as a Native American in the 1980s.
“I give her credit, she’s emerging from the ashes,” Trump continued, adding: “Not a nice person.”
Trump’s comments are some of his first direct attacks aimed at Warren in months, following weeks of Trump surrogates attacking Biden, who has typically been seen as the front-runner in the Democratic primary.
The president’s attacks toward Warren could be a sign that his campaign is starting to view the Massachusetts senator as a rising threat within the Democratic Party, as Warren has challenged Biden in some national polling.

The Ukraine whistleblower’s attorney Mark Zaid has been warning President Trump of a pending coup since 2017.
Zaid has been a critic of the president long before he was hired to represent the whistleblower that triggered the House impeachment proceeding.
In 2017, Zaid tweeted that Trump was facing a “rebellion” that would eventually lead to impeachment.
Zaid’s tweets came as Trump announced that Trump had fired Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates for refusing to enforce executive policies.
Zaid became a pivotal member of Trump’s impeachment by representing the whistleblower.
Despite calls from Trump and others for the whistleblower to be identified and provide an impeachment testimony, Zaid has maintained that the whistleblower will remain anonymous.
He called any efforts to identify the whistleblower the “pinnacle of irresponsibility.”

Asked on Tuesday why he hasn’t disclosed the name of the individual, Paul told reporters that he “probably will.”
“I’m more than willing to, and I probably will at some point,” he said. “There is no law preventing anybody from saying the name.”
