Trump Cancels Visit To The New Billion-Dollar U.S. Embassy In The U.K.

Description

On Thursday, President Donald Trump said that he cancelled his planned trip to Britain, where he was expected to open the new billion-dollar United States embassy. In a tweet, Trump claimed that the Obama administration had sold the former US embassy "for 'peanuts,'only to build a new one in an off location." However, the decision to sell the old embassy was actually made during the George W Bush administration and was reportedly inspired by security concerns. The new 12-story glass embassy, scheduled to open on January 16, is the most expensive embassy ever built.

  • From Florida Resort, Trump Holds Economic Fate Of 14 Million American Workers In His Hand

    President Donald Trump faces a ticking clock with respect to the current proposed COVID-19 relief package. Trump has suggested he may reject the $900 billion package that Congress approved earlier this week unless lawmakers include $2,000 stimulus payments. Business Insider reports Trump could cost jobless workers a week of $300 federal unemployment benefits if he fails to sign the bill by midnight Saturday. Business Insider reports nearly 14 million Americans may lose all their unemployment aid this weekend if the bill doesn't pass. Labor experts say a two-to-three week gap in unemployment benefits is inevitable, as states need to recalibrate their computer systems to send the payments.
