MOSCOW, Sept 30 (Reuters) - The Kremlin said on Monday that Washington would need Russian consent to publish transcripts of phone calls between U.S. President Donald Trump and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin.


lolrussia

I don't think that's unreasonable, for a foreign leader to object to transcripts or audio being shared with the public without review from the other party.

It’s not unreasonable but Putin can’t prevent the Americans from releasing it.

I honestly think Trumpism is the GOP's only path now. It was always a weirdly cobbled together coalition, and now they've gone three years pushing all in on the crazy.

I don't think that coalition is large enough.

you don't think so? I think it's absolutely large enough to sufficiently splinter the GOP in such a way that a D always wins.

Johnson has also called for an investigation into Biden, including suggesting that a Senate investigation would be "completely appropriate."


Trump apparently was correct about the United States becoming Venezuela; although he was wrong about which party was driving us there.

Rudy Giuliani, President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer, told Reuters that he traveled to Madrid, Paris, and Warsaw to meet Ukrainian officials about getting dirt on Joe Biden last year. But he says his client, the president, did not pay his way. “Nobody pays my expenses,” Giuliani told Reuters in an interview that was published Monday. “What does it matter if I’m getting paid for it? Isn’t the real story whether he [Biden] sold out the vice presidency of the United States, not whether I got paid for it?”


Dude is losing it.

Add Rep. Chris Collins to the pile of dead wood. He tendered his resignation as he changes his plea to guilty as charged. Or is that 'as filmed by a news crew'?

"We’re trying to find out about a whistleblower. We have a whistleblower that reports things that were incorrect," the President said at the White House moments ago.

Rudy got his subpoena for documents. He has two weeks. He is on the clock to claim attorney/client privilege. There is a prediction that the knives are out over in Big Mike Pompeo land to carve him up.

Attempting to rebut a report that supposedly completely vindicated you. Sounds about right for this president.

Its not.

The US president encouraged Scott Morrison to work with William Barr in an investigation meant to discredit Mueller’s Trump-Russia findings


Also

NBC News has now confirmed the New York Times’ reporting that Trump asked the Australian prime minister for assistance in a Justice Department investigation of the origins of special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe.
