The White House will decide in “the months ahead” whether to remove sanctions against Russia in exchange for coordinating efforts against ISIS in the Middle East, Vice President Mike Pence said Sunday.

“If we have opportunities to work together, I think the President is looking for an opportunity to begin that relationship anew,” Pence said on ABC’s “This Week.” “But, make no mistake about it, those decisions will await action. And they’ll be very dependent on how the Russians respond in the days ahead.”

When asked directly about whether sanctions against Russia — with whom Trump has been accused of cultivating a cozy relationship — would remain in place “as long as Russia is violating the ceasefire in Ukraine,” Pence replied that it “was a question that will be answered in the months ahead.”(nydailynews)…[+]

The next trial for the self-styled militia that took over a federal building in Oregon might be bungled — by Burning Man.

A federal agent who oversaw operations during the weeks-long Oregon standoff, and was expected to be a key witness in the upcoming trial, has been accused of abusing his position to get tickets and security for the Burning Man desert festival in 2015.

A report on the alleged back-dealing dropped just six days before jury selection is set to start for the trial in a Las Vegas federal courtroom. The first trial for the occupation, in an Oregon court, ended last year with the defendants getting acquitted on all major charges and a juror blaming federal prosecutors for a faulty case.(nydailynews)…[+]

“Yes, Arnold Schwarzenegger did a really bad job as Governor of California and even worse on the Apprentice … but at least he tried hard!” the President tweeted early Friday morning. Trump had ripped the “Celebrity Apprentice” ratings during the National Prayer Breakfast on Thursday. That prompted Schwarzenegger to make a video response.(nydailynews)…[+]
