The White House is fiercely divided over President Trump’s campaign promise to “cancel” the Paris agreement, the 2015 accord that binds nearly every country to curb global warming, with more moderate voices maintaining that he should stick with the agreement despite his campaign pledge.
Stephen K. Bannon, Mr. Trump’s senior adviser, is pressing the president to officially pull the United States from the landmark accord, but he is clashing with Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and the president’s daughter Ivanka Trump, who fear the move could have broad and damaging diplomatic ramifications.
Mr. Trump wants to make a decision by next week, say people familiar with the White House’s debate on the climate pact, in order to announce his executive order to undo Mr. Obama’s climate regulations in conjunction with his plans for the Paris deal.
According to leaked budget documents, the president will also propose killing off nearly two dozen E.P.A. programs, including the Obama-era Clean Power Program, climate partnership programs with local governments, Energy Star grants to encourage efficiency research in consumer products and climate-change research.

More BS....
Get out, NOW!
“More bs”
I’m not so sure. We’ve been hearing Ivanka has been pushing Trump to break his pledge and keep us in this dreadful “treaty”. Rex said he believes the AGW BS. Ivanka is a problem.
We’ll see if Trump keeps his word or goes against what his supporters want...
IMO, another attempt by NYT to cause division among Trump supporters...Just like the “amnesty” fake news before his Congreesional address...You saw how that played out...
Who would want to go to Paris anyway? The Muslims are burning down the city. Maybe that’s why they think there is global warming. If I were Trump, I would tell these third world morons to pound sand.
The Slimes lies again. Yet more completely fake news, as in “Ms. Trump is for the Paris accord” then they go on to say she never said she was for it.
Baldfaced liars. Good. More and more Independents are seeing the media bias, lies and false news for what it is.
No, we have never heard Ivanka wants to stay in the treaty. We have only seen it reported as fake news in the lying media. We have never heard a peep from her in favor of the Paris treaty. None. It is only in the evil news media that we have read this fake news.
Don’t fall for it.
But we know that Ivanka wants to make this one of “her issues”, and Tillerson had already sold out on it previously.
So no particularly reason to expect that somehow Ivanka has changed her mind, but the NYT is just reporting old news in this case.
Exactly.
Kushner has also been a lifelong Manhattan Democrat—and he is now one of Trump’s most senior advisors.
