In the run-up to Christmas, President Donald Trump has been the beneficiary of some surprisingly good news and glad tidings.<\/p>\n

Sunday, Vladimir Putin called to thank him and the CIA for providing Russia critical information that helped abort an ISIS plot to massacre visitors to Kazan Cathedral in St. Petersburg.<\/p>\n

Monday found polls showing Trump at his highest in months. Stocks soared 200 points at the opening bell in anticipation of pre-Christmas passage of the Republican tax bill. The Dow has added a record 5,000 points in Trump\u2019s first year.<\/p>\n

And the Russiagate investigation may have busted an axle. Though yet unproven, charges are being made that Robert Mueller\u2019s sleuths gained access to Trump transition emails illicitly.<\/p>\n

This could imperil prosecutions by Mueller\u2019s team, already under a cloud for proven malice toward the president.<\/p>\n

What was U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley doing last week at what looked like a prewar briefing at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling in D.C.?<\/p>\n

Looming behind Haley was part of what was said to be an Iranian missile fired at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh.<\/p>\n

Though the rocket had Iranian markings, it was not launched from Iran, or by Iranians. Houthi rebels, for two years victims of a savage war waged by the Saudis \u2014 using U.S.-made planes, missiles, bombs and drones \u2014 say they fired it at the Riyadh airport in retaliation for what the Saudis have done to their people and country.<\/p>\n
