Input: Consider Input: A senior White House official told Fox News that the  Trump-Schumer  meeting was productive  but there was no deal yet. Still  the president labeled the meeting "excellent" in a tweet.
“We had a long and detailed meeting "  Schumer  said in a statement. "We discussed all of the major outstanding issues  we made some progress  but we still have a good number of disagreements. The discussions will continue.”
According to a White House source   Schumer  arrived in the Oval Office and presented the president with a list of demands on domestic issues that went well beyond just DACA. The president listened to  Schumer  and appeared perplexed as  Schumer  rattled off  his  agenda items  the source said. The president told  Schumer  he wasn’t going to get all of those demands in a spending bill.
 Schumer   the source said  did appear open to considering a continuing resolution that would keep the government funded for five days. The official White House position is still a 30-day extension.

Input: Consider Input: (Reuters) - Saks Fifth Avenue owner Hudsonâs Bay Co (HBC.TO) said on Wednesday it had received a bid for its German department store chain Kaufhof from  Signa  Holding  the Austrian property and retail group that owns Karstadt  another German retail chain.
The announcement came after Reuters reported earlier on Wednesday  citing sources  that  Signa  had made a 3 billion euro ($3.5 billion) offer for Kaufhof. Hudsonâs Bay did not comment on the bidâs value  and  Signa  declined to comment.
 Signaâs offer  comes one week after Hudsonâs Bay agreed to sell its flagship Lord & Taylor building in New York for $850 million to WeWork Cos.
The Reuters sources said that  Signa  expects Toronto-based Hudsonâs Bay  which has been reluctant so far to engage in negotiations to sell Kaufhof  to respond to  the offer  by the middle of November.
Hudsonâs Bay called  the offer  incomplete  non-binding and unsolicited  with no evidence of financing.
The sources said that in its offer letter to Hudsonâs Bay   Signa  stated  its  bid for Kaufhof would not be contingent on any third-party financing  since  it  already has 700 million euros in approved financing from European banks  and also has cash available from a 1 billion euro equity raise last month.
 Signa  has also offered to assume all of Kaufhofâs liabilities  including a 1.34 billion euro real estate loan by German bank LBBW  the sources added.
Hudsonâs Bay said it plans to review  the offer  in due course. It added that its European business is an important element of the companyâs strategy  and that it remains focused on executing its strategy and plans for the upcoming holiday season.
At a valuation of 3 billion euros including debt  Signaâs bid values Kaufhofâs real estate at 2.63 billion euros  the sources said.
Signa tried to buy Kaufhof in 2015  but Hudsonâs Bay outbid it by paying 2.5 billion euros including debt for the German chain and its Belgian subsidiary. Since then  Kaufhofâs finances have deteriorated  to the point where vendors are finding it more difficult to find trade credit insurance to make shipments.
âHudsonâs Bay board of directors should  consistent with its fiduciary duties  seriously consider the reported  Signa  fully financed 3.0 billion euro offer for Hudsonâs Bay European business  which is above the Companyâs purchase price and stated net asset value â Lands and Buildings CEO Jonathan Litt said in a statement.
 Privately held Signa   founded 17 years ago by property developer Rene Benko  now runs more than 125 retail locations in Northern Europe  generating annual revenue of about 3.8 billion euros  according to  its  website.  It  owns a big real estate portfolio with a gross asset value of more than 10 billion euros.
 Signa  bought Karstadt from the brink of bankruptcy in 2014 for the nominal consideration of just one euro from  its  majority owner Nicolas Berggruen  son of an international art dealer.
 Signa  restored Karstadt to profitability: realigning  its  offerings closer to the tastes of German consumers  cutting costs and making operations more efficient. Karstadt and Kaufhof are now the two largest department store operators in Germany.
Last month   Signa  said  it  had completed an equity raise of 1 billion euros  giving  it  more firepower to pursue acquisitions.

Input: Consider Input: The attempts to curtail testimony to congressional investigators became clear this week when  former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon  appeared before the House Intelligence Committee and infuriated both sides of the aisle by refusing to answer questions about  his  work during the presidential transition and in the White House.
At some points during  Bannon 's six hours of closed-door testimony   his  attorney took breaks to confer via telephone with the White House counsel's office to clarify what questions could be answered and came back with the same guidance:  Bannon  could not discuss any activities related to the transition or  his  tenure in the White House.
 Bannon 's team negotiated ground rules with the White House counsel's office the week prior to his appearance before the House Intelligence Committee  according to a source familiar with the situation.
The President's personal legal team was aware of discussions between the White House counsel's office and  Bannon 's lawyer about protecting a possible privilege claim. But it wasn't their decision  according to a person familiar with the discussions. The protection of the privilege is a matter for the White House  not the President's legal team  because it relates to the office.
Before the hearing   Bannon 's lawyer informed a staff member of Rep. Devin Nunes  the California Republican who chairs the House Intelligence Committee  that  Bannon  planned to claim executive privilege on topics beyond the presidential campaign  a source said.
But that information was apparently tightly held. "It caught me personally by surprise" that  Bannon  asserted executive privilege  said Rep. Mike Conaway  the Texas Republican leading the committee's Russia investigation.
South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy and Florida Rep. Tom Rooney  the other two Republicans leading the Russia probe along with Conaway  also said they weren't aware of any agreement between the White House and committee staff about the scope of  Bannon 's testimony.
"They wouldn't do that because I'd ask what I think is relevant to ask  and if you've got a legal privilege you can assert it " Gowdy said  adding that  Bannon  was in a "legally indefensible position."
As it became clear on Tuesday that  Bannon  was refusing to answer questions  the committee served  him  with a subpoena to compel  him  to divulge additional information.
But the scope of what  Bannon  was claiming was privileged shocked members from both parties.
" His  version of executive privilege is it covers the transition  the time  he  was at the White House and covers time forever " Gowdy told Fox News Wednesday. "That is no one's definition of executive privilege."
Lawmakers were also offended that  Bannon  had already divulged details about some of  his  post-campaign activities in Michael Wolff's explosive book "Fire and Fury " but then refused to discuss those events with the committee.  Bannon 's attorney also informed members that he would  in fact  answer those questions when he meets with special counsel Robert Mueller's team because executive privilege doesn't apply to Mueller's investigation.
Democrats charge that  Bannon 's appearance before the House committee marks the broadest attempt so far at using privilege to shield events that occurred from the moment Trump was elected.
Republicans haven't ruled out the possibility of holding  Bannon  in contempt  but at least one GOP member -- Gowdy -- suggested it was unlikely.
House Speaker Paul Ryan downplayed the issue of whether witnesses like  Bannon  might be abusing the bounds of executive privilege.
Still   Bannon 's stonewalling sparked a sharp warning from Conaway -- the Republican leading the House Russia probe -- to White House aides who might follow the Bannon model: "We're going to insist on getting questions we need to answer our report."
