American intelligence intercepts recorded members of the Russian government talking about Donald Trump and his allies months before he launched his presidential bid, according to a new report.

 

The allegations come from a new Wall Street Journal report that describes the 2015 conversations as containing "vague and inconclusive information." According to the report, the intercepted conversations included talk of meetings between Russians and Trump allies.

 

While the intelligence community reportedly didn't see the conversations as major revelations, the Journal reports that investigators are taking a second pass at the conversations to see if they can find new relevance amid the twists and turns of the investigation into allegations of collusion between President Trump's campaign allies and Russian officials.

President Donald Trump will sit down for an interview with Pat Robertson of @CBNNews today at the WH. Intv will air on @700club Thursday.

President Trump said Wednesday that Russian President Vladimir Putin would have been happier with his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton, in the White House.

“If Hillary had won, our military would be decimated. Our energy would be much more expensive. That's what Putin doesn't like about me,” Trump said in an interview with Christian Broadcasting Network founder Pat Robertson.

“And that's why I say, why would he want me? Because from day one I wanted a strong military — he doesn't want to see that,” the president added.

Despite that, jersey still prays at the altar of Ryan. I don't think trying to appeal to jh's moral side is going to work.

I dunno if she's any good as a pollster, and she was his best surrogate during the campaign (low bar), but it's been one embarrassment after the other since January when they've occasionally let her on camera. Everyone who has gone inside has just completely embarrassed themselves.
