I think Trump likes to mix it up on social media, and I actually think that is one of the good things about this president is that he's not filtered.

He doesn't send everything through a communications professional.

Sometimes, we're going to have disagreements on public policy.

The Pope has been critical of our immigration policy. But ultimately, the immigration policy of the United States is set by Donald Trump. The Pope is going to have disagreements on other issues.

We can respect the Pope. We certainly have a good relationship with the Vatican.

We're also going to disagree on substantive questions from time to time. I think that's a totally reasonable thing.

As a direct result of Hezbollah's reckless actions, the Israeli and Lebanese governments are engaging in open, direct, high-level diplomatic talks โ€” the first such talks since 1993-brokered by the United States.

This conversation will scope the ongoing dialogue about how to ensure the long-term security of Israel's northern border and support the Government of Lebanon's determination to reclaim full sovereignty over its territory and political life.

Israel is at war with Hezbollah, not Lebanon, so there is no reason the two neighbors should not be talking.
