Today at the WH: Pres Trump holds talks with Greek PM Alexis Tsipris. They have talks, a working lunch and joint press conference at 130pm.

PM Tsipras looking for strong relations with the US, as a reliable alternative to US tensions with Turkey.

Tsipras has already scored points with the Trump Admin by exceeding the 2% of GDP @POTUS wants all @NATO allies to spend on defense.

SNIDE REPORTING ALERT_

Though in 2016, Tsipras publicly voiced concern about Trump's election, telling Greece: "I hope this bad thing doesn't befall us."

This evening, Pres Trump again pitches his tax plan in speech to @Heritage, the conservative think tank. His 9th tax speech since Aug 30.-Mark loves to count times our President does anything.

Also today, Pres Trump marks Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights, with an Oval Office ceremony to light the Diya oil lamp.

No WH press briefing today because of the @POTUS news conference with PM Tsipras....1:30
