Why split with Sessions may pit Trump agenda against Trump himself

Posted: 26 Jul 2017 01:51 PM PDT

Why split with Sessions may pit Trump agenda against Trump himselfThe Trump presidency has, at times, adopted the style and tone of "The Apprentice," the reality television show that made Donald Trump a household name. The Sessions imbroglio suggests to political observers that Mr. Trump has fealty to his and his own first, a stance that could jeopardize his own policy agenda and spark more serious conflicts – with Republican allies in Congress, and perhaps even with his own voters.

Syria pivot? Why anti-Assad rebels, dropped by CIA, could land with jihadists.President Trump's reported suspension of a covert CIA program to fund, arm, and train Syrian rebels is seen as signaling the end of US efforts to pressure Syrian President Bashar al-Assad on the battlefield. The move, which some commentators have characterized as appeasing Russia, Mr. Assad's most powerful backer, has left thousands of mainstream rebels struggling to navigate a battlefield suddenly tipped against them, without a patron, without guidance – and for some – without a cause.
