Fake News Update: Trump Meets Abe of Japan, Russia Narrative Dissolves

The meeting and the description of the meeting.

The one main problem I have with this article is that it mentions that Abe is getting pressure from home on Trump's immigration policy and it is just left to hang there.  The writer either doesn't know or doesn't want the reader to know that Japan has a very strict immigration policy that wouldn't likely allow any of the refugees.  Correct me if I'm wrong and check this yourself but Japan has a policy of not allowing immigration.

Japan Migration Policy - notice the demographic breakdown


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_to_Japan
Read the numbers.  There is nothing wrong with this except that any suggestion that Japan should put pressure on the USA to keep our borders open in laughable considering it is coming from a country that has very strict controls on immigration and if you notice that the arrivals are listed as residents and becoming a Japanese citizen is very difficult.

The Russia Narrative at the NYT is recycled propaganda
 This describes a knowing and intentional effort to discredit the Trump administration.
