9A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • THURSDAY, AUGUST 17, 2017 Port: There are no plans to discuss Tongue Point at next week’s meeting WORLD IN BRIEF Associated Press Trump decries monument removals, ‘history ripped apart’ WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump bitingly decried the rising movement to pull down monuments to Confederate icons Thursday, declaring the nation is seeing “the history and cul- ture of our great country being ripped apart.” Trump’s new remarks came even as the White house tried to manage his increasing isolation and the continued fallout from his combative comments on last weekend’s racially charged violence in Charlottesville, Virginia. He also tore into fellow Republicans who have criticized his statements on race and politics, fanning the controversy toward a full-fledged national conflagration. Pressured by advisers, the president had taken a step back from the dispute on Monday, two days after he had enraged many by declining to single out the white supremacists and neo-Na- zis whose demonstration against the removal of a Robert E. Lee statute had led to violence and the death of a counter-protester in Charlottesville. He returned to his combative stance on Wednesday — insisting anew that “both sides” were to blame. And then in a burst of tweets on Thursday he renewed his criticism of efforts to remove memo- rials and tributes to the Civil War Confederacy. “You can’t change history, but you can learn from it,” he tweeted. “Robert E. Lee. Stonewall Jackson — who’s next, Wash- ington, Jefferson? So foolish. ... “Also the beauty that is being taken out of our cities, towns and parks will be greatly missed and never able to be comparably replaced!” He wasn’t talking about beauty in earlier tweets, lashing at GOP U.S. Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Jeff Flake of Arizona. He accused “publicity-seeking” Graham of falsely stating his position on the demonstrators, called Flake “toxic” and praised a Flake primary election opponent. Trump aide: No military solution in North Korea BRIDGEWATER, N.J. — President Donald Trump’s chief strategist Steve Bannon says there’s no military solution to the threat posed by North Korea and its nuclear ambitions, despite the president’s recent pledge to answer further aggression with “fire and fury.” In an interview with The American Prospect posted online Wednesday, Bannon tells the liberal publication that the U.S. is los- ing the economic race against China. He also talks about purging his rivals from the Defense and State departments. Bannon is also asked about the white supremacist movement, whose march on Charlottesville, Virginia, last weekend led to deadly violence. He dismisses them as “losers,” ‘’a fringe element” and “a collection of clowns.” The White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment. “There’s no military solution (to North Korea’s nuclear threats), forget it,” Bannon says. “Until somebody solves the part of the equation that shows me that 10 million people in Seoul don’t die in the first 30 minutes from conventional weapons, I don’t know what you’re talking about, there’s no military solution here, they got us.” Continued from Page 1A Bob Brown/Richmond Times-Dispatch A Richmond Police vehicle pauses in front of the Jeffer- son Davis Memorial in Richmond, Va., Wednesday. the president’s insistence that there were “very fine people on both sides” of a violent weekend clash between white supremacists and counterdemonstrators. The nuanced statements reflect the party establishment’s deli- cate dance. Few top Republican officeholders defended the pres- ident in the midst of an escalating political crisis. Yet they are unwilling to declare all-out war against Trump and risk alienat- ing his loyalists. And as the 2018 elections begin to take shape, the debate over Trump’s words appears to be taking hold in GOP primaries. Trump’s overall approval rating may be dismal, but a small group of die-hard supporters is expected to play an outsized role in next year’s midterm elections when the Republican control of Congress is at stake. Those supporters are praising the president’s response to the violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, which left one dead and many more wounded. “You got racism in both factions, on both sides,” former New Hampshire GOP chair Jack Kimball said. “Trump has zero fault here. None.” Charlottesville woman’s family: Fight injustice like she did CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — Family members of the young woman mowed down while protesting a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville used her funeral as a rallying cry, telling mourn- ers the best way to honor Heather Heyer is to continue her fight against injustice. “Let’s find that spark of conviction,” Heyer’s mother, Susan Bro, told the hundreds who packed a downtown theater to remem- ber Heyer on Wednesday. “Find what’s wrong and say to your- selves, ‘What can I do to make a difference?’” Heyer’s death on Saturday — and President Donald Trump’s insistence that “both sides” bear responsibility for the violence — continued to reverberate across the country, triggering fury among many Americans and soul-searching about the state of race rela- tions in the U.S. The uproar has accelerated efforts in many cities to remove symbols of the Confederacy. Heyer, 32, was eulogized as a woman with a powerful sense of fairness. The mourners, many of them wearing purple, her favorite color, applauded as her mother urged them to channel their anger not into violence but into “righteous action.” “They tried to kill my child to shut her up. Well, guess what? You just magnified her,” said Bro, receiving a standing ovation from mourners inside the Paramount Theater. is the very definition of crony capitalism,” Hunsinger wrote in an ad scheduled to run Friday in The Daily Asto- rian. “The fact that was done without public notice to deny community input or scrutiny is disgraceful. If a private purchaser such as (Hyak) Maritime is so interested in fully operating Tongue Point, then why did they never ask for a public meeting, or openly ask to discuss public partnership options with the Port?” Port staff added the dis- cussion item regarding Tongue Point four days before taking the Aug. 1 vote. Port Executive Direc- tor Jim Knight said discus- sions with Hyak and Wash- ington Development Co. had only recently finalized to the point of bringing the item to the Port Commission. Hyak’s CEO and co-owner Robert Dorn said the company wants to work with shipwright com- pany and Port tenant WCT Marine to develop a ship- yard. The concept has received endorsements from WCT’s co-owners Willie and Carol Toristoja and from fellow shipwright Tim Hill. One of the Port’s first ten- ants at North Tongue Point, Hill recently sold J&H Boat- works to WCT Marine. Hunsinger urged peo- ple to attend the Port Com- mission’s meeting Tuesday and send letters and emails to the agency’s staff. “At a minimum, you should demand the Port to pay for an appraisal of Tongue Point so everyone can honestly know what the Port will be giving away to private cor- porate interests,” he wrote. Spence said there are no plans to discuss North Tongue Point at next week’s meeting, which will include the interviews of seven finalists for the Port Com- mission seat left vacant by Robert Mushen’s recent resignation. “There’s nothing to dis- cuss,” Spence said. “The Commission sent the let- ter to Washington (Devel- opment Co.) to be released, and the 60-day timetable … is working now for Hyak to close their deal.” A former U.S. Navy and U.S. Coast Guard base, North Tongue Point includes two large former seaplane hangars utilized for ship work and seafood process- ing, about 30 acres of paved land, several piers front- ing a channel of the Colum- bia River and a derelict rail spur belonging to Portland & Western Railroad. Port staff have said the agency loses about $250,000 annu- ally at North Tongue Point, which has been the subject of many development pro- posals, none of which have come to fruition. US: War would be ‘horrific’ but Republican leaders dance around NKorea nukes ‘unimaginable’ BEIJING — A military solution to the North Korean missile Trump remarks threat would be “horrific” but allowing Pyongyang to develop NEW YORK — One after another, the nation’s most power- ful Republicans responded to President Donald Trump’s extraor- dinary remarks about white supremacists. Yet few mentioned the president. The Senate’s top Republican, Majority Leader Mitch McCo- nnell, condemned “hate and bigotry.” House Speaker Paul Ryan charged that, “White supremacy is repulsive.” Neither criticized 105 Business-Sales Op 150 Homes for Sale PUBLISHER'S NOTICE the capability to launch a nuclear attack on the United States is “unimaginable,” the top U.S. military officer said Thursday in Beijing. The chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, Marine Corps Gen. Joseph Dunford, told reporters that President Donald Trump directly has “told us to develop credible viable military options and that’s exactly what we’re doing.” 230 Houses, Unfurnished EQUAL HOUSING OPPORTUNITY Be an Astoria Carrier! $100 Signing Bonus!
