Single borrower limit, weve increased by 50 basis points. Forerms of advice countries, that has not been increased. The concessional loans for the poorest countries are focused are zero interest with a 40 year maturity. That has not changed. For some countries, especially the very poorest, we still provided grants. The fees have only change for a very small percentage of countries. We are very grateful because they had to approve that.

Be compelled to resign and should he now be included . Bloodthere is some bad between congressman issa of california and congressman cummings. That is unfortunate. I view it as an unfortunate sideshow. I dont want to get into whether congressman cummings committed ethical issues. If facts come out that warned that he is somehow engaged in improper conduct, i will change my mind at that point.

Brandnew reporting this morning about a Fiery Exchange between the acting defense secretary and senator Lindsey Graham over the president s plan to withdraw United States troops from syria. And off to the races. Just hours after throwing his hat into the 2020 ring, Bernie Sanders raises more than 4 million bucks surpassing his closest rivals in fundraising intensifying a battle among democratic contenders. 4 million. Too much money is in politics. The president s scorched earth strategy to combat the numerous investigations looking into all aspects of his public and private life. New reporting shows just how far mr. Trump has gone to undermine those efforts. I have a great team to break down all of it. But first, i want to give you a snapshot of exactly where we stand because it is easy to get lost. As we get closer to the end of the special counsels inquiry, we must remember that the president has done Everything Possible to be distract, downplay and demonize everyone and everything c
