Trump Budget Hit List Has Programs Long in G.O.P. Sights
By SHARON LaFRANIERE and ALAN RAPPEPORT

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting, 
AmeriCorps and the National Endowments for the 
Arts and the Humanities could all be eliminated.

Most of the programs cost under $500 million 
annually, a pittance for a government that is 
projected to spend about $4 trillion this year.

Trump calls the media 'the enemy of the American People'
Trump calls the media 'the enemy of the American People'

WEST PALM BEACH. Fla. - President Trump further 
escalated his attacks on the news media Friday 
afternoon when he tweeted that outlets such as 
the New York Times, NBC, ABC, CBS and CNN are not 
his enemy but "the enemy of the American People."

It took the president two tries to properly post 
his message, which came soon after he arrived at 
his luxury oceanfront estate for the weekend. The 
first tweet, which was quickly deleted, contained 
a number of extra spaces and listed the Times, 
CNN and NBC, ending with this conclusion: "SICK!" 
The second tweet added ABC and CBS to the list, 
while removing "SICK!" Both tweets labeled those 
organizations as being "the FAKE NEWS media."

"  Š organisms have a physiological response to 
temperature, and these responses have important 
consequences Š. biological rates and times (e.g. 
metabolic rate, growth, reproduction, mortality 
and activity) vary with temperature."

"  Š  analysis suggests that despite high-level 
statements to the contrary, there is now little 
to no chance of maintaining the global mean 
surface temperature at or below 2C. Moreover, the 
impacts associated with 2C have been revised 
upwards, sufficiently so that 2C now more 
appropriately represents the threshold between 
'dangerous' and 'extremely dangerous' climate 
change."
