A split emerged in Italy’s populist coalition government Wednesday after 
right-wing leader and Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini rejected an 
E.U. plan, approved by Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte, to send about a 
dozen rescued migrants to Italy -- although Salvini later backed down and 
agreed to let some enter.
 
This week, the Maltese government announced a deal to distribute a group 
of 49 asylum seekers from two rescue boats to a number of European 
countries -- including Italy. Conte, a political neophyte chosen by 
Italy’s populist coalition to lead the government, said that if Italy took 
about 15 child migrants and their parents, then it wouldn’t “stain” the 
country’s crackdown on accepting migrants from rescue boats.
 
That was met with a furious response from Salvini -- the leader of the 
right-wing, anti-immigration League who serves as the interior minister in 
the government consisting of his party and the anti-establishment 5 Star 
Movement. The coalition formed last year, representing one of the biggest 
gains for the populist movement sweeping the continent.
 
"Whether it is eight or eighty-eight migrants, I do not authorize anyone 
to enter Italy," Salvini said in Poland on Tuesday, according to La 
Repubblica.
 
Salvini has been one of the continent’s most vocal advocates against mass 
migration, and the driving force behind Italy’s push to keep numbers down, 
particularly those who board makeshift boats from Libya and are rescued by 
NGO rescue boats.
 
His push has worked, with numbers of migrants from irregular crossing 
dropping to their lowest levels in years, but the pressure from the E.U. 
to take in rescued migrants as part of a continent-wide response to the 
crisis has not let up.
 
Salvini said that it was up to him to authorize such a move, which he had 
not.
 
“I do not authorize the arrivals of migrants. We consult before making 
decisions like this. I do not understand this acceleration of Conte. I 
have control over ports,” he said.
 
The open clash marks a significant feud within the coalition in a country 
that sees fragile coalitions dissolve frequently. An op-ed in La 
Repubblica declared that the government “is already finished.”
 
But by Wednesday Salvini appeared to accede to a form of the plan. After a 
meeting of senior government officials, around 10 migrants were allowed to 
come to Italy but would be entrusted to the care of the Waldensian Church 
at no cost to the state, Italian news wire ANSA reported.
 
Salvini said on Twitter that he had not changed his mind on the issue, and 
was ultimately happy with the outcome.
 
“Our ports remain closed, the landings are zero and the Italians will not 
pay a euro for other new arrivals,” he said. “The battle against 
smugglers, traffickers and rogue NGOs continues!”

 A letto tardi e in piedi presto, un po’ stanco ma felice??.
I nostri porti rimangono chiusi, gli sbarchi sono a zero e gli Italiani 
non pagheranno un euro per altri nuovi arrivi. (1/2)

He later told an Italian radio station that he doesn’t want the government 
to collapse: "The government is fine. We have done a lot in six months and 
the two government parties have the confidence of 60 percent of the 
Italian people, which is pretty unique".

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in 
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016.  The clown car 
parade of the democrat party ran out of gas and got run over by a Trump 
truck.
 
Congratulations President Trump.  Thank you for cleaning up the disaster 
of the Obama presidency.
 
Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the 
The World According To Garp.
 
ObamaCare is a total 100% failure and no lie that can be put forth by its 
supporters can dispute that.
 
Obama jobs, the result of ObamaCare. 12-15 working hours a week at minimum 
wage, no benefits and the primary revenue stream for ObamaCare.  It can't 
be funded with money people don't have, yet liberals lie about how great 
it is.
 
Obama increased total debt from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the eight 
years he was in office, and sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer 
liberal democrat donors.
