NYT: White House Split over Trump Pledge to Cancel Paris Climate Deal
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, the New York Times reported the White House is sharply
divided over President Trump's campaign pledge to "cancel" the 2015
Paris climate accord. The Times cited unnamed officials who said Trump's
chief strategist Stephen Bannon is pushing the U.S. to withdraw from the
agreement entirely, while Trump's daughter Ivanka and Secretary of State
Rex Tillerson are said to be calling for the U.S. to remain a signatory
to the pact.
