In this file photo from July, Angela Merkel and Donald Trump pass each other at the Nato headquarters in Brussels. Photo: Kay Nietfeld/DPA German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Sunday warned US President Donald Trump against "destroying" the United Nations. "I believe that destroying something without having developed something new is extremely dangerous," Merkel said at a regional election campaign event in Bavaria. The veteran leader -- a close ally of Trump's bugbear Barack Obama while he was president -- added that she believed multilateralism was the solution to many of the world's problems. Trump failed to see the possibility for win-win solutions, she said, instead seeing only one winner from any international negotiation.

Trump-Rosenstein face-off may be delayed again
Associated Press Published 11:24 AM EDT Sep 30, 2018 Washington – The White House says President Donald Trump’s highly anticipated meeting with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein could be delayed again. They were expected to meet this week, but press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders tells “Fox News Sunday” she could see the meeting “pushing back another week” given the continued focus on Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court nomination.
