Mitt Romney says President Donald Trump called Democrats' bluff in making a short-term deal to reopen the federal government to work out an agreement to fund border security and avoid another shutdown.

KURT SCHLICHTER — Chill. Just chill. The wailing and gnashing of teeth on the hardcore conservative side over Trump's delaying action – really, a hudna – in the battle for the wall is way over the top and typically overdramatic. Trump's caved-in! We're doomed! Pelosi annihilated him with her master stratagems and it's all over for conservatism! Oh please. Lighten up, Francises, – and many of you are my pals. But you need this bucket of cold water. What happened Friday doesn't matter.... (more)

The White House says Trump donated $100,000 to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism. Alcoholism is a personal issue for the president.

WASHINGTON EXAMINER — Senate Republicans are skeptical that Congress will be able to reach agreement on a deal in just three weeks to boost border security that includes funding for a border wall, as President Trump is demanding.

CLIFF KINCAID — The predawn raid on Roger Stone and his arrest are the latest developments in what is an obvious plan to force President Trump from office or impeach him. On the matter of border security, Trump looks weak and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi looks strong. The deal between the White House and congressional Democrats to negotiate over border security measures is a major loss for Trump. He has become toast for re-election because he has disappointed his base. The question now becomes how long he can survive as president.... (more)

BARBARA KRALIS — New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has again threatened his people with extreme abortion legislation that only causes a further deChristianization of the state's culture. The degree of Gov.

FOX NEWS — Mercedes Schlapp, the White House director of strategic communications, told Fox News on Thursday that President Trump is considering the option to declare a national emergency to force the construction of his long-promised border wall.

REP. TOM MCCLINTOCK (R-CA) — The term "crisis" is chronically overused by politicians, but the numbers behind the debate over the "border crisis" speak for themselves.

TIMES OF ISRAEL — U.S. President Donald Trump said Wednesday night he was postponing his State of the Union address until the partial government shutdown ends, yielding after a week-long showdown with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Following a high-stakes game of dare and double-dare, Trump conceded there was "no venue that can compete with the history, tradition and importance of the House Chamber" and that he was not looking for an alternate option after Pelosi served notice earlier Wednesday that he won't be allowed to deliver the address to a joint session of the US Congress next week....

JACK CASHILL — To his credit, National Review editor Rich Lowry has apologized more than once for his and the publication's initial response to the flap at the Lincoln Memorial involving the kids from Covington Catholic.
