Have similar reporting - West Wing officials said Bolton didn’t want to defend Trump on Russia being readmitted to G7. People close to Bolton insisted it was because he didn’t want to be the front person talking about tariffs, per multiple sources, which made little sense.
Lots of people saying the leaks related to the Camp David meeting, including about Pence’s stance, infuriated POTUS.
And there has been tension between Bolton and Mulvaney for some time, including related to staffing.

Trump campaign holding a conf call to boast of president's involvement in NC09. First question is about this @peterelkind piece and reporting that the campaign isn't sharing voter scores with downballot candidates texasmonthly.com/politics/brad-…
@peterelkind Parscale says he won't talk about "that stupid story." Prior to that, Parscale said of NC09, "There's no question that he is the congressman elect this morning because of the personal efforts of President Trump."
@peterelkind Stepien now on call, congratulates Dems for taking "moral victory," says Republicans were happy to take "the actual victory."

The president, who is well aware that Westerhout knows a great deal about his White House and who often worries about bad partings with aides who know a lot, was relatively subdued talking about Westerhout with reporters today nytimes.com/2019/08/30/us/…
"Adding to the concern was the fact that, unlike most other officials, Ms. Westerhout was not thought to have signed a nondisclosure agreement, a document that Mr. Trump has frequently used in effort to tamp down on leaks." nytimes.com/2019/08/30/us/…
And from cutting-room floor, at least one book publishing house had discussions today about trying to approach Westerhout about writing a tell-all of her own nytimes.com/2019/08/30/us/…

POMPEO is listed as a featured guest at what’s being described on invitations as a briefing and luncheon in NYC with JOHN CATSIMATIDIS, Art Laffer, Steve Forbes and Steve Moore, per ppl briefed on the plan. That group is known for being interested in pro-growth candidates.
Pompeo continues to be a wished-for KS senate candidate by some. He also is seen as a potential presidential candidate down the road.
Another meeting POMPEO held today was with Ronald Lauder, who has a long relationship with Trump and who could be a supportive donor for a Pompeo senate run, per two people briefed.

RUSSIA CONNECTS

The West, being overtaken by China & those allied with it has repeatedly signaled its intent to weaken those rising to threaten its continued ability to be World Control HQ.

The East has largely until recently hoped for a change of heart & a return to sanity.
RUSSIA CONNECTS

The East doesn't wish conflict, it wants stability, strong relationships, security & trade.

The West has shown time after time its malign intention, to disrupt & destabilize, creating chaos, organizing provocations, sanctioning, sabotaging, ever threatening war.
RUSSIA CONNECTS

Color revolutions have become the West’s favored means of undermining nations & replacing governments.

The fomented insurrection occurring now in Hong Kong is another example of its cynical attempt to generate chaos with a view to furthering western aims.

 First some qualifications. I am first and foremost a financial economist, and by nature and study, fiscally conservative. Most finance academics are.

I care deeply about fiscal and monetary policy, but not obtuse enough to believe my opinion is always right

What makes the country great is our ability to disagree passionately about a wide array of subjects but find a working common ground.

I try to refrain from many political topics, especially on this platform, because, what can be accomplished debating on @Twitter

BREAKING: The White House has said that US President #Trump is canceling his upcoming South America trip to remain in the US "to oversee the American response to Syria." - @NBCNews
This sounds like the US is planning to strike #Syria and Trump will remain in the US to closely monitor responses by #Russia. This is terrible.
BREAKING - British forces are now mobilizing at their bases in #Cyprus for strikes against #Syria. It appears very likely that the US, France and U.K. will strike Syria in the next 24 hours. This is dreadful.

The #transcript is *312 pages*. Things get JUICY on p62👉🏼Simpson describes the #SteeleDossier as ”broadly speaking, a kind of holistic examination of Donald Trump's business record...it evolved somewhat quickly into issues of his relationships to *organized crime figures*‼️🔥
Simpson says his work on the #SteeleDossier began in Sept/Oct 2015.🤔

Feinstein staffer Heather Sawyer asks WHO initially engaged Fusion to perform the opposition colonoscopy on @realDonaldTrump, says it was a REPUBLICAN‼️
