I blame 45*, Putin, #TrumpRussia for my new reading list of the following: (1)

(2)

Btw, I recommend reading Collusion so you understand how much of a BFD it is to have certain names pop up in Fire and Fury.
(3)

The Despot's Apprentice: Donald Trump's Attack on Democracy amazon.com/dp/1510735852/…
