president says slow the economy. "An Associated Press review of the department's rulemaking activities in Trump's first year in office shows at least a dozen safety rules that were under development or already adopted have been repealed, withdrawn, delayed or put on the back burner. In most cases, those rules are opposed by powerful industries. And the political appointees running the agencies that write the rules often come from the industries they regulate. Meanwhile, there have been no significant new safety rules adopted over the same period." http://bit.ly/2F8rjVA 2020 WATCH -- Elizabeth Warren's stealth campaign to shed 'Pocahontas'," by Gabe Debenedetti: "Elizabeth Warren's surprise address this month on her disputed Native American heritage was just one piece of a concerted campaign by the Massachusetts senator and potential 2020 hopeful to put the controversy behind her. Derisively nicknamed 'Pocahontas' by President Donald Trump over allegations that she used claims of Native American heritage to get a head start in her job search - a claim she and former colleagues strongly deny - Warren has met with close to a dozen tribal leaders and prominent activists recently. "She has also signed onto at least six bills directly related to Native American policy. It's clearly an organized effort: Four of those co-sponsorships came within two days of her speech, and Warren endorsed two bills around that time even though they'd been introduced months earlier." http://politi.co/2Cl7VDE FOR YOUR RADAR -- "China Moves to Let Xi Stay in Power by Abolishing Term Limit," by NYT's Chris Buckley and Keith Bradsher in Beijing: "China's Communist Party has cleared the way for President Xi Jinping to stay in power indefinitely, by announcing Sunday that it intends to abolish term limits on the presidency, a momentous break with decades-old rules meant to prevent the country from returning to the days when Mao was shown cultish obedience. The surprise move, revealed in a dryly worded proposal to amend the Constitution, is the boldest yet by Mr. Xi as he seeks to strengthen the party's control over a modernizing society and restore China to what he considers its rightful place as a global power - an agenda that his allies have suggested requires his personal leadership." http://nyti.ms/2CHWP7E COMING ATTRACTIONS - "Michelle Obama to release memoir in November," by AP's Hillel Italie: "Michelle Obama's memoir, one of the most highly anticipated books in recent years, is coming out Nov. 13.

One industry insider equated this to the Seinfeld episode when Cosmo Kramer used his golf caddy as a jury consultant. A senior administration official told me that comparison is completely unfair. The source confirmed Trump recommended Dunkin and that he's sat for an interview for the post. That source said he was impressive." http://bit.ly/2EV3XU4 -- THIS IS A position that needs confirmation from the Senate. PUTTING THE PIECES TOGETHER -- "Behind a Key Anti-Labor Case, a Web of
