It was a good moment to get coffee.

There's almost literally no way this is true, but I'm sure he said it with conviction

Trump's bonkers lawyer publicly apologized. I am not sure I really doubted it, especially since he has been Trump's guy for so long, but t is just tragically humorous.

Like he was delivering the eulogy at his mothers funeral.

EDIT: Found it. NBC reporting Where there might not be any current connections from the unnamed Russian to the current regime, it is another case of amnesia massively afflicting the Trumps and all their cronies.

The meeting had at least one additional Russian agent: Paul Manafort.

3rd previously unnamed person now

what a clown show, brah

imagine a drumpfco concept paper devoted to the subject of trust

Pod Save America just had a funny, reasonable, and cool-sounding Republican on. Tomorrow they'll be speaking to Bigfoot

name names - we need to keep track of these phenomena

VA 7th district Rep David Brat coming hard at VA's senators. Warner sees smoke everywhere like he is in a Cheech and Chong movie, and Kaine crowing collusion like a morning rooster. Entertaining.

Tim Miller is great, though Jeb people still annoy me a bit. At least he didn't work for the SuperPAC.

Exact Trump words to Brigitte Macron: 'You know, you're in such great shape...beautiful.'

What a scumbag. Women's rights, naw.

I'm sure other people know this, but she was his husband's high school literature and theater teacher at the Jesuit school the French President attended. His parents changed his school for his senior year due to their "bond," as wiki tells me. They originally met when he was 15, and started dating at 18, while she was still married with 3 kids between the ages of 11 and 20. Wiki makes no mention of whether the children attended the same school. She and her husband divorced 10 years later, and married Macron 1 year after.

ben sasse is "great" too - cool-sounding! - and then you find he has few if any genuinely useful governing ideas

Sessions warps sanctuary city study to find that these location suffer more violent crime, of course he is completely wrong, but if you say it, then it is fact.

The WH staff defense teams have been preparing for DjTJr's disclosure for 3 or 4 weeks?!? Kushner's team was taking the lead, and fighting over it with the prez reps. Now little Donnie's team will join the mix.

In related news, the rumor mill is talking about "who" should pay for these defense teams, and it has been said that the GOP should be on the hook! The party has a legal defense fund, and the chief exec wants to tap it for himself, friends and family.

So another person in this Jr. meeting was a Russian translator. The fucking meeting was in Russian and it some how slipped Kusner's mind on his SF86. How does he have clearance still?

Because the only person who can revoke it is his father-in-law.

Why does it totally figure that a lawyer named Ty Cobb is all set to work for drumpf

Now I'm fully expecting Shoeless Joe Jackson to show up on the defense team for one of the drumpfco mob

The Bezos/WaPo is bird bombing Ivankna and Jared. Two articles: Ivankna's brand runs counter to empowering women and buy American, and The royal couple's fall from political grace. Probably just Bezos striking back at the internet tax Trump want to lay on him. Get ready for #SoUnfair

at least 8 people were in the Don Jr meeting.

incredible.

The sequencing of the revelations is pretty fantastic
