The Washington Post reported Monday that due to an alleged Iranian threat to assassinate President Trump, he secretly swapped planes before departing the July NATO summit in Turkey — leaving senior administration officials, staff and members of the press corps on board.
"The Israelis passed a tip, a concern, that the plane and potentially the president was under threat," says Dan Lamothe, one of the Washington Postreporters who broke the story. But it turns out the "CIA had low confidence" in the Israeli tip, according to a more recent Post story Lamothe co-authored on Thursday. "I think that kind of leaves the Secret Service in a tough spot of assessing: What do you do in this zero-fail mission to keep the president safe?"

The Trump administration has introduced a new interpretation of the Endangered Species Act, a bedrock of successful U.S. wildlife conservation for more than 50 years, dramatically weakening its power to protect natural habitats and opening vulnerable lands to real estate development, oil drilling and other extractive industries. A coalition of conservation groups is suing the Trump administration over the rule change. They are represented by the environmental law group Earthjustice and senior attorney Ben Levitan, who calls this latest Trump administration attack on the environment "a total repudiation of the premise that endangered species need places to have shelter, to have food, to raise their young."
