Aug 28, while we’re at it: politico.com/story/2019/08/…
Forgot this one.

Sept 10: CNN publishes a bizarre follow-up to its exfiltrated spy bombshell which is about how Trump sometimes randomly asserts that he dislikes using foreign spies against adversaries. cnn.com/2019/09/10/pol…
To drop the coy act, my irresponsible speculation is that Trump promised to hand over that spy we exfiltrated, the outing of the spy was an effort to protect the spy, and Trump’s muttering about his distaste for using spies was laying the predicate to order this one returned.
