Theresa May issued a parting shot at Donald Trump as she prepares to leave office, calling the US president's comments about a group of Democrat congresswomen "completely unacceptable." The Prime Minster, who has largely refrained from publicly criticising the US president's tweets, weighed in after he told the ethnic minority congresswomen to "go back" where they came from. Mrs May's spokesman said: "Her view is that the language used to refer to these women was completely unacceptable." Mr Trump and Mrs May, who leaves office in just over a week, have had a roller coaster relationship. Earlier this month they had a public falling out over the resignation of Sir Kim Darroch, the UK's ambassador to Washington after his diplomatic cables were leaked The two leaders are not expected to speak again before Mrs May leaves Downing Street. The current row began on Sunday when Mr Trump issued a lengthy diatribe on Twitter. He did not name anyone but was widely taken to be referring to a group of four high profile female Democrats known as "the squad," who have been critical of his immigration policies. Donald Trump's UK state visit, in pictures Mr Trump described congresswomen who "originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe." He added: "Why don?t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came." The congresswomen include Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan. All four are US citizens and only Ms Omar was born outside the US. She was born in Somalia. Following a backlash, in which Democrats accused him of being racist, Mr Trump re-iterated his criticism. He said: "When will the Radical Left Congresswomen apologize to our Country, the people of Israel and even to the Office of the President, for the foul language they have used, and the terrible things they have said. So many people are angry at them &their horrible &disgusting actions!" He added: "If Democrats want to unite around the foul language &racist hatred spewed from the mouths and actions of these very unpopular &unrepresentative Congresswomen, it will be interesting to see how it plays out." Kamala Harris, a Democrat 2020 presidential candidate, said: "It's absolutely racist and un-American." But there was little criticism from Republicans. Backing the president Lindsey Graham, the Republican senator, said: "We all now AOC and this crowd are a bunch of communists and they hate Israel, they hate our own country."

Protesters in Puerto Rico gathered outside La Fortaleza governor's residence on Sunday, demanding Gov. Ricardo Rosselló step down for his involvement in a private chat in which he used profanities to describe an ex-New York City councilwoman and a federal control board overseeing the island's finances. Undersecretary of La Fortaleza's press office, Michelle De la Cruz, said she did not know if the governor was home. Some activists say they are ashamed of the language used by Rosselló in the group chat and the ways the reputation of the U.S. territory might be affected.

Just in time for next week?s likely House vote on a federal $15 minimum wage, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office has come out with a caustic report on the consequences of the policy.The report confirms what even liberal economists caution: A $15 minimum wage would ?risk undesirable and unintended consequences? and lead to a survival-of-the-fittest labor market, where only the highest-skilled workers come out on top. Democrats are under the illusion that the government can force employers to artificially increase wages with no adverse consequences for American workers. But that?s like saying the government could double families? mortgage and rent payments without any consequence.Here are six ways this new report exposes the minimum wage proposal as bad policy.1\. It would be a job-killer.The Congressional Budget Office report estimated that a $15 minimum wage would lead to 1.3 million lost jobs by the year 2025, with job losses rising over time due to compounding negative impacts.The exact number of job losses are highly uncertain, but the report says losses would most likely range between zero and 3.7 million, with a not-insignificant chance that losses could exceed 3.7 million.A 2011 Heritage Foundation estimate was even bleaker. It estimated a $15 minimum wage would lead to 7 million lost jobs.
