Bob Woodward, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to release the hundreds of hours of recordings you have of Trump's allies bashing him. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.

"hundreds of hours of taped interviews"
Who among us hasn't ranted about a truly despicable, imbecilic, complete liar of a boss in the heat of the moment only later to regret it because the rant was to Pulitzer Prize winning journalist @realBobWoodward and it's ALL on tape? 😂

"In light of Woodward’s reporting that Mattis told associates Trump 'acted like — and had the understanding of – a 5th or 6th grader,' internal speculation about Mattis’s potential departure has intensified."

Yet, Trump claimed Mattis didn't say.

Trump campaign chair & deputy chair Paul Manafort & Rick Gates conspired with Russian GRU-linked Konstantin Kilimnik to pass internal polling data to Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska, whose private jet Kilimnik flew on to meet Manafort in AUG 2016.

In AUG 2016, after Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort's told him to share internal polling data with Putin ally Oleg Deripaska, Russian GRU-linked Kilimnik used Deripaska's jet to meet Manafort in NY – soon after he met with Deripaska in Moscow .
#Maddow
In SEP 2016, weeks after Kilimnik flew to NY on Oleg Deripaska's private jet to meet Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort, Deripaska secretly met with Russia's deputy prime minister Prikhodko & briefed him on how to "solve the issue with America."

NEW ––> Trump admin makes FALSE case for crisis at border, laying foundation for Trump to declare a PHONY national emergency to build his useless wall. [FIFY, @PhilipRucker]

If there's such a crisis, why didn't Trump use all of the money he was allotted for the wall last year?

#MuhRussia Timeline part 1
2014
March 6: The U.S. begins imposing sanctions on Russia for “violating the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine.”

(No date): The Russian government allegedly performs various “intelligence-related activities targeting the U.S. voting process” starting in 2014,
according to a Senate Intelligence Committee report released on May 8, 2018. Russians perform “traditional information gathering efforts as well as operations likely aimed at preparing to discredit the integrity of the U.S. voting process and election results,” according to

Something I always thought interesting. When Trump asked Russia for help finding the 30,000 "missing" Clinton emails, Trump suggested he was asking for the press.

"I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press. Let's see if that happens. That will be next."
It made me wonder at the time, was Trump trying to create a defense to any claim that Trump was asking for campaign assistance and any claim that Trump was promising to provide a payoff to Russia? You will be rewarded mightily ... "by our press"
In other words, Trump's added language claiming that Russia would be "rewarded mightily by our press" is an acknowldgement that Trump knew that he would be engaging in a crime if Trump was asking for assistance.

1/ Let’s take a close look at these indictments handed down today, shall we? (justice.gov/file/1080281/d…)
2/ Count One is Conspiracy to Commit an Offense Against the US. It is alleged that Russia, through its military intel agency (GRU) engaged in large-scale cyber intrusion operations and staged release of documents to interfere in the 2016 election.
3/ In paragraph 8, indictment alleges those charged “conspired with each other, *AND WITH PERSONS KNOWN AND UNKNOWN TO THE GRAND JURY*” —this implies there are *UNCHARGED CO-CONSPIRATORS*. Acts began in March, 2016. Releases began in June, 2016, continuing through November 2016.

There’s one positively enormous shoe that still hasn’t dropped in special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference with the 2016 campaign:
an indictment about all those hacked emails. vox.com/policy-and-pol…
The operation was more wide-ranging than many remember. It wasn’t just emails stolen, either — posted material ranged from Democratic Party turnout data a GOP operative thought was “probably worth millions of dollars” to even a purported picture of Michelle Obama’s passport.
Trump associates tried to get involved w either Russian-provided dirt, hacked Dem emails, or WL at least 6x. We don’t yet know if they were successful — but Papadopoulos has already pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about the matter, and began cooperating with Mueller’s team.
