Trump's meetings with Putin always highlight just how much Putin has gained from Trump's presidency. Here are our 12 examples of Putin's Payout for his investment in Trump:
themoscowproject.org/reports/putins…
1. Trump has weakened and divided the transatlantic alliance, undermining NATO and our relationships with European allies. themoscowproject.org/reports/putins…
2. Trump has helped degrade the European Union and foster pro-Russian political movements, including by actively supporting and praising anti-EU and Kremlin-backed politicians and parties. themoscowproject.org/reports/putins…
3. Trump has disrupted American leadership of the global economic order with his arbitrary tariffs and trade wars. themoscowproject.org/reports/putins…
4. Trump has contributed to global resentment and distrust toward the U.S. themoscowproject.org/reports/putins…
5. Trump has relieved economic and domestic political pressure on Russia by impeding and even rolling back U.S. sanctions. themoscowproject.org/reports/putins…
6. Trump has helped legitimize Putin's regime in the eyes of the world, repeatedly defending and even praising Putin's autocratic regime.
themoscowproject.org/reports/putins…
7. Trump has helped revive Russia's status as a great power, including by suggesting he would recognize Russia's illegal seizure of Crimea.
themoscowproject.org/reports/putins…
8. Trump has allowed Putin to keep sowing discord in Western democracy and avoid repercussions for interfering in elections—and even said he'll accept Russian help in the future.
themoscowproject.org/reports/putins…
9. Trump has helped soften America's adversarial stance toward Russia, turning a traditionally hawkish party into one actively seeking warmer relations. themoscowproject.org/reports/putins…
10. Trump has destabilized the U.S. from within, attacking our norms and institutions while driving divisive politics. themoscowproject.org/reports/putins…
11. Trump has helped advance the Kremlin's narrative, at times going so far as to adopt Kremlin talking points. themoscowproject.org/reports/putins…
12. Trump has undermined international norms and democratic values abroad, repeatedly failing to respond to human rights and autocratic behavior. themoscowproject.org/reports/putins…
Putin has received—and continues to receive—a good payout on his investment in Trump and his campaign. To learn more, check out #TheAsset, where we break down Trump's decades-long relationship with Russia from the very beginning. theassetpodcast.org

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 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

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
