Reminder: When reporters asked Trump during the campaign about evidence that Putin has had journalists killed, Trump disputed the charges and responded, "I think that our country does plenty of killing, too."
The first time Trump and Putin held a press conference together in 2017, they also bonded over their attacks on the press.

And, oh yeah, that "sweeping and systemic" attack on American democracy Trump seemed to find so funny this morning included at least 14 Russian operatives who have been indicted for their roles in a Kremlin-funded online disinformation campaign.

Happening now: FBI Director Christopher Wray is testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee, including about the investigation into Russian interference. c-span.org/video/?462772-…
.@SenFeinstein notes that Wray sounded the alarm about Russian interference in 2018 as a "dress rehearsal" for 2020. You can read about that interference in the DOJ's indictment of Elena Khusyaynova, a Russian operative in those efforts:

@SenFeinstein Senator Mike Lee is dredging up old conspiracy theories about bias within the FBI impacting the Russia investigation—more than a year after a report from the DOJ's inspector general found that there was no such impact.

Last night's big WikiLeaks news sheds new light on one of last year's most controversial stories: the allegation that Paul Manafort met with Julian Assange at the Ecuadorian Embassy in March 2016. theguardian.com/us-news/2018/n…
Manafort and Assange denied it (of course). The Guardian's report notes: "Visitors normally register with embassy security guards and show their passports. Sources in Ecuador, however, say Manafort was not logged."
theguardian.com/us-news/2018/n…
Last night, we learned how that could be true: Because Assange had the ability to sneak guests pass security and delete names from the visitor logs, making it easy to cover up his actions.

Trump’s Treachery Goes Way Beyond Russia

He’s working for any dictator who flatters him.

slate.com/news-and-polit…
Mueller has ended his Russia investigation, and Republicans are gloating.

Trump and his surrogates are lying.

Mueller has indicted dozens of people.

He has obtained multiple convictions and guilty pleas.
He has proved or confirmed that Manafort, Stone, Donald Jr., and others in the Trump camp collaborated with Russian agents or intermediaries.

According to the Justice Department, Mueller’s report also presents evidence that Trump may have obstructed justice.

@pollsofpolitics @MiamiPapers @NancyPelosi @POTUS @realDonaldTrump This President is the most divisive president in the History of the republic. #TRUMP has publicly stated that he enjoys the chaos and conflict he causes in his administration, the Congress, and in the coutry. He stated that turnover, resignations, and turmoil gives him pleasure
@pollsofpolitics @MiamiPapers @NancyPelosi @POTUS @realDonaldTrump This proves his psychopathic mental illness and is dangerous and destructive to a democratic republic whose strength is in its UNITY and the RULE OF LAW that protects the least of us through equal treatment under the law. Our president routinely attacks BOTH, as AGENT OF RUSSIA!
@pollsofpolitics @MiamiPapers @NancyPelosi @POTUS @realDonaldTrump #POTUS has laundered money for #Russia for DECADES. It is the ONLY reason he was able to come back from multiple bankruptcys. He is on Russia's pocket, and they KNOW it. It is why he is fearful that he will be poisoned. He should have learned the moral of his #snake allegory.

#Trump said his Russian business efforts, including during the campaign were "Very legal" and "VERY COOL."

HAHAHAH....yep, I sure do agree with that. Very cool, indeed.

Of course, most of the media have no clue, though some of them do, b/c some have reported the truth.
Well, sommanab*tch! The link I saved from one of the media outlets that knew ...now seems to be gone. Of course I couldn't archive it because it was WaPo. They wouldn't let me archive it.
Well, here's another one, by Buzzfeed, no less. They KNEW that Trump worked WITH the FBI, yet they participated in the conspiracy against him to frame him as the guilty one.

Who funds the IEA, the TPA, the ASI &co?
You know, the RW 'free trade' thick tanks advocating tax havens, "freedom" (no regulations like workers' rights or environmental protection), no welfare (no tax & no free healthcare).
Basically, "Only the wealthier survive" philosophy?
1/n
*Could it be* that it has something to do with defending their funders' interests?
Today, I'm going to tell you the Thick Tanks' Hydra tale.
Featuring Atlas, huge piles of money, tradition, "free speech", useful idiots and a very clear agenda that Brexit/Trump are a part of.
2/n
Take a seat: It's a long story, with a lot of players, including politicians, pretty ladies squatting your TV, the climate change denial's network, the global fascist movement, Silicon Valley/multiname data-stealing/misusing company & private companies' involved in elections.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed
