U.S. President Donald Trump  said the Uzbek immigrant accused of killing eight people when  he  drove a truck down a New York City bike path should get the death penalty. The suspect  Sayfullo Saipov  told investigators he was inspired by watching Islamic State videos and began planning Tuesdayâs attack a year ago  according to a criminal complaint filed against him.
A visa program aimed at diversifying the U.S. immigrant population came under attack from  Trump  after he learned that the suspect used it to enter the country.
Trumpâs drive to overhaul the U.S. tax system will reach a major milestone  when Republicans in the House of Representatives unveil their long-awaited initial bill. The expected bill will be the starting gun for a frantic race toward what  Trump  and House and Senate Republicans hope will be their first major legislative victory: the enactment this year of a tax package seeking up to $6 trillion in tax cuts over the next decade for corporations  small businesses and individuals.
Ralph and Mike Waller are such ardent backers of  Trump  that they help stage a counter-protest every Wednesday in front of their Front Royal  Virginia  pawn shop  sparring with anti-Trump demonstrators who gather across the street. But ask them about Ed Gillespie  the Republican candidate for Virginia governor in next Tuesdayâs election  and they show little enthusiasm.
 Trump  does not recall a meeting with  his  foreign policy advisers in March 2016 in which one of them suggested  he  could arrange a meeting between candidate Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin  the White House said.
North Korea may be planning a new missile test  South Koreaâs spy agency told lawmakers  after brisk activity was spotted at its research facilities  just days before U.S. President Donald Trump visits Seoul.
