Residents and representatives. Jon President Trump has unvowed to do the agenda, whether he can reverse National Monuments is unclear. Lets talk about erin from the paste washington post. Why is it unclear . The president used an authority since 1906. We havent seen an example of a president trying to undo one of those designations, so we really are in unchartered territory if president elect trump does want to undo this specific designation. Now, we dont know specifically if this is one he will object to. Certainly many republicans in congress do. But this would be one of the areas where there could be a legal fight if they do decide to fight back. Jon president elect trump maintains that the fact that hes moving into the white house is a direct repudiation of so much of the Obama Administration stands for and yet, the outgoing president seems to go pedal to the metal to get some of these things done that he thinks are important, witness the banning of drilling on the atlantic shelf a
Michael flynn vacated that job, and its just that chain of events that well be talking about today. Its that chain of events and this story specifically that dominated the White House Briefing within the last hour here as part of the exchange with press secretary sean spicer.

This is a line youll keep hearing over
President obama warned President Trump ab flynn. Tell us more. Reporter well, he warned him. We did get that confirmed today. But i think its fair to give context to that warning. Keep in mind flynn had already been fired by president obama. Flynn had been openly critical of the Obama Administration. So when you look at it through the context of what was happening at the time, by the way, he had already been reupped as someone who had the highest level of clearance, reupped by the Obama Administration. When you take all that together, you might understand why the president was just a little skeptical perhaps of the admonition of the outgoing president. The president never disclosed details of meetings he had. Its true the president , president obama, made it known he wasnt exactly a fan of general flynns which shouldnt come as a surprise to anyone. Given general flynn had worked for president obama, was an outspoken critic of president obamas short comings. The question you have to ask
