Political Cornflakes: Jared Kushner suggests setting up webcams to live-stream border wall construction

The White House has plans to set up a “wall cam” to live-stream construction of a barrier at the nation’s southern border. The plan formulated by Jared Kushner and other senior Trump administration officials runs counter to advice from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and senior U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials. These officials have pointed out that construction contractors don’t want to broadcast their techniques to competitors. [WaPo]

Topping the news: Protestors temporarily shut down a Salt Lake City Council meeting on Tuesday evening, as they demanded that officials keep open The Road Home’s downtown shelter through the winter.
