President Obama will meet with House Speaker Rep. Paul Ryan and Senator Majority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell on Tuesday, according to the White House. White House press secretary Josh Earnest confirmed the meeting during a White House press briefing. He says the meeting would be about the president's "legislative priorities" in Obama's last year in office and "opportunities to work together."
"Building on the bi-partisan agreement that the president signed into law last year, we certainly believe that there are areas of cooperation for the year ahead," he said.
When asked why the meeting had taken so long to take place, Earnest blamed preparation for the State of the Union, Congress being out of session, and recent snow days for the delay
"The president is looking forward to the conversation," Earnest said. Today is Paul Ryan's 46th birthday.
Ryan spokesperson Doug Andres responded to the news in a statement to Breitbart News.
"While the House is focused on a bold agenda for 2017, the Speaker appreciates the opportunity to see if we can find any areas of common ground in the year ahead," he said, referring to the meeting.

If they had any negotiation skills, they would send him a messenger and tell him to go F himself. Taking control is the key to negotiation, I do it every day! Respond to a ‘summons’ doesn’t happen in my world, you make your adversary come to you, assuming that Mitch and Paul see him as an adversary, which is highly questionable.
In a role reversal the Massa has summoned Stoop and Fetchit the barnyard fools.
You have to give the Chicago Mob credit.
They made the term “lame duck President” completely obsolete.
Bootlickers, islamists and traitors. Trump or no Trump, like it or not, it really is over folks.
Respectfully,
Will Obama find it necessary actually to SHOW Ryan and McConnell the video he has of them in bed with little boys? Or will he just have to remind them of it?
Oh Boy , something STUPID is coming
Formulating plans on how to stop Trump or Cruz, no doubt.
“I’ll take care of your Hillary problem if you take care of my legacy problem.”
Who was ordered to bring the Vaseline?
Gun control, WW3, Open borders for ISIS and those with diseases, government control of the Internet, nationalizing retirement accounts, War on cash, more government surveillance, federalizing and miltarizing local police forces, more internal checkpoints for “citizens”
They’re all totalitarians now.
I wouldn’t doubt that either. I have no faith that what they discussed would be of benefit to we the people.
And the way it is going, the Hillary problem is the Republicans are worried that Hillary “won’t”. win the presidency.
