1. On October 5, 1993, Donald Trump spoke before a group of lawmakers and blatantly lied about Native Americans and reservations. Rep. George Miller noted the racism in Trump's comments. trumpfile.org/trump-lies-to-…
Donald Trump: They don't look like Indians to me, sir.

Rep. Miller: Thank God that’s not the test of whether or not people have rights in this country or not, whether or not they pass your look test.

2. In the summer of '98, Rudy Giuliani found a new cause to promote: ending treatment for heroine addicts. Knowing what we do about his relationship with the mafia, this might have been an effort to increase profits for the illegal drug business. trumpfile.org/official-warns…
3. In March of 2000, ads paid for by the Institute for Law & Society warned that a casino at the St. Regis Mohawk Reservation would bring drugs and create broken families.

But the ads were actually designed by Roger Stone and paid for by Donald Trump. trumpfile.org/donald-trump-a…
4. In April 1997, a New Jersey official accused Trump of violating state law by trying to prevent the construction of a tunnel in Atlantic City. The state refused to investigate due to a pending lawsuit, which was dismissed a few weeks later. trumpfile.org/nj-official-ac…
5. Jeffrey Epstein's New York and Palm Beach mansions were sold in March. Updated to include the buyers and the Palm Beach property, which was not part of the original post. trumpfile.org/jeffrey-epstei…
6. Updated to include the exact line and page number from the FBI's 1996 report that states Semion Mogilevich owns the Baltschug-Kempinski Hotel in Moscow. (I couldn't find it at first and almost convinced myself I imagined it.) trumpfile.org/donald-trump-m…
7. When Trump World Tower opened in 2001, Donald Trump enlisted his old pal Sam Kislin (Giuliani donor, mafia member, former KGB spotter) and a Russian realty firm to sell the condos. The firm went looking for buyers at Semion Mogilevich's hotel in Moscow. trumpfile.org/trump-world-to…
8. William "Bill" Sessions was FBI Director from November 1987 - July 1993. But by 2007, he was working for Semion Mogilevich. They were probably introduced by Dmitry Firtash, who Rudy Giuliani was involved with in 2019. trumpfile.org/william-sessio…
9. In April 2013, the FBI busted two transnational gambling rings in Trump Tower. The mafia boss in charge was running the operation from Russia, where he attended Trump's Miss Universe pageant as a VIP guest months later. trumpfile.org/fbi-finds-russ…

NEW: Three months ago, a New York Times story tricked America. We deserve to know if Donald Trump is still receiving intelligence briefings. trumpfile.org/is-trump-getti…
"Biden Bars Trump From Receiving Intelligence Briefings"

That’s a really comforting headline, isn’t it? We could all sleep easier at night, if it wasn’t a lie. We have no idea if Trump is still receiving intelligence briefings traditionally shared with former presidents. Image
Neither President Biden or any government official has, to my knowledge, confirmed the New York Times headline, and no reporter has asked for an update. The Times story stems from an interview in which Biden was asked if Trump should — should — receive intelligence briefings.

"We're now living in an era of kind of shamelessness that I think didn't exist in the same way before, and of course, the personification of that is Donald Trump." - @dklaidman

A friend and I watched two political films last night that came out less than a decade ago. Game Change (Julianne Moore, 2012) and Confirmation (Kerry Washington, 2016). In the last four years, the GOP has turned these films into relics from a different United States.
Confirmation is about the confirmation of Clarence Thomas to SCOTUS, complicated by sexual assault claims from Anita Hill. It's a moving film. But the most shocking moments don't feel like an untold story. They feel like a kid-friendly version of the Kavanaugh confirmation.
Game Change tells the story of McCain's 2008 campaign picking Sarah Palin for VP & everything that happened after. As the campaign got to know her, they FEARED that the base would find out how bad she is for the nation. All of those bad qualities are what the GOP aims for today.

1. On April 30, 1993, Donald Trump sued the federal government for discriminating against people like him: wealthy casino owners. trumpfile.org/donald-trump-s…
2. On June 18, 1993, Donald Trump said Native American reservations are run by organized crime figures. "I think I might have more Indian blood than a lot of the so-called Indians..." trumpfile.org/donald-trump-n…
3. On Thursday, the Federal Elections Commission decided not to move forward on its probe of the Stormy Daniels hush-money payment, which violated campaign finance laws. It's unlikely anyone but Michael Cohen will ever face charges. trumpfile.org/fec-drops-trum…

1. In 1999, Donald Trump showed a New York Times reporter a rigged poll with only 100 respondents to "prove" that Americans wanted him to run for president. trumpfile.org/1999-poll/
2. In the same 1999 interview, Donald Trump said he couldn't believe Bill Clinton had an affair with Monica Lewinsky. Not because of the affair, but because of Monica.

If Bill chose a supermodel, Trump said, "he would have been everybody's hero." trumpfile.org/trump-bill-cli…
3. On May 3, the Justice Department informed three Washington Post journalists that Trump's DOJ had secretly obtained their phone records from 2017, when government sources were providing details about the Trump campaign and Russia. trumpfile.org/justice-dept-t…

Fox News is so fair and balanced and "America First" that Sean #Hannity was getting briefings from Russian chaos agent Paul Manafort during the Trump campaign.
Steve Bannon was very concerned people might find out Manafort was still advising Trump's team. Manafort "resigned" from the campaign three months before this.
"The reality is you cannot count on [Trump] to win a debate."

Accurate.
