NEW: We’ve published a huge bundle of internal Trump Organization documents that show how secret negotiations for Trump Tower Moscow unfolded while Trump was on the campaign trail, publicly praising Putin. buzzfeednews.com/article/azeeng…
As Trump went from rally to rally denying any dealings in Russia, his representatives, Michael Cohen, and Felix Sater, worked with Trump Organization lawyers and even Ivanka Trump to build the tallest tower in Europe. buzzfeednews.com/article/azeeng…
They planned to use Trump’s public praise for Putin to help secure the lucrative deal. At the same time, they plotted to persuade the Russian president to declare his support for Trump’s candidacy. buzzfeednews.com/article/azeeng…

Only a fraction of shootings in US cities are ever solved. Our investigation with @teamtrace revealed overworked detectives are letting promising leads go cold while families wait in vain for justice.

buzzfeednews.com/article/sarahr…
@teamtrace In the cities we examined, homicides and assaults carried out with guns lead to arrests around half as often as the same crime with another weapon or physical force.
@teamtrace The odds of an arrest are even lower if the victims are people of color. When a black or Hispanic person is fatally shot, the likelihood that local detectives will catch the culprit is 35 percent — 18 percentage points less than when the victim is white.

Last week, nearly 100 Mexicans died in an explosion from a punctured pipeline. The incident revealed the full extent of a crisis that has long gone ignored — that fuel theft is now out of control. buzzfeednews.com/article/karlaz…
For some time now, members of local cartels and gangs have targeted Mexico’s vast network of pipelines — last year, they made more than 12,000 illegal taps, siphoning around 56,000 barrels of fuel a day.
The death toll from last week’s explosion is unprecedented. But the government had long turned a blind eye as gangs stole gasoline, and money poured into their coffers.

The news that Trump told his longtime lawyer Michael Cohen to lie to Congress is the culmination of more than a year of BuzzFeed News reporting.

This is how we got here.

buzzfeednews.com/article/jasonl…
The story began in April, when we revealed that as Trump ran for president, his business team worked on a Trump tower in Moscow — with the help of a former Russian intelligence officer. But in a twist, that former officer also gave intelligence to the US.

buzzfeednews.com/article/jasonl…
The definitive story of how Trump's team worked the Moscow tower deal came out a month later, thanks to a trove of emails, text messages, congressional testimony, architectural renderings, and other documents obtained exclusively by BuzzFeed News.

Against Normalization: The Lesson of the “Munich Post”

THE TRUMP-HITLER COMPARISON.
Is there any comparison? Between the way the campaigns of Donald #Trump and Adolf #Hitler should have been treated by the #media and the culture? The way the media should act now? The problem of #normalization?
2/
Because I’d written a book called Explaining Hitler several editors had asked me, during the #campaign, to see what could be said on the subject.

Until the morning after the election I had declined them.
