Many great things are happening for our Country!"  The president  [dropped his threat of tariffs against Mexican goods on Friday](, announcing via Twitter that he had reached a deal with Mexico to stem immigration through the southern border. The State Department said in a statement that Mexico agreed to deploy its national guard throughout that country "giving priority to its southern border."  The department also announced Friday the U.S. would expand its "migrant protection protocols" requiring migrants seeking to enter the United States to stay in Mexico until their cases are processed.  It said Mexico would authorize people to enter for humanitarian reasons "while they await the adjudication of their asylum claims."

Adam Schiff, D-Calif, said his goal is "to explain to the American people the serious counterintelligence concerns raised by the Mueller Report, examine the depth and breadth of the unethical and unpatriotic conduct it describes, and produce prescriptive remedies to ensure that this never happens again. That is a tall task, but it begins with a detailed focus on the facts laid out in the Special Counsel's report."  The first of the hearings is scheduled for 9 a.m. Wednesday.  Read more from [NBC's Ken Dilanian](.
