In-Brief

1. The Federal government is fully open until February 15 as Trump loses the first battle in the Border Wall - Immigration war. A bi-partisan House and Senate conference committee will now attempt to craft a deal on the wall and immigration.
2. China’s economic and political policy choices threaten its future.
3. Venezuela is in political and economic chaos. Socialism is on the retreat in another important country.
4. Americans are satisfied with the overall quality of life but dissatisfied with important areas of American life and the country’s institutional structure.
5. The Joke: ”If con is the opposite of pro, then is Congress the opposite of progress?”
