The Trump Presidency

I generally stand with the whistleblower on things like this.

Takes a lot of balls to leak information like this and basically throw your entire life away. She's pretty young too.
 
Donald Trump went to Saudi Arabia and he did it again: claimed credit for a YUGE deal that doesn’t exist and if it did exist, started during the Obama administration. Bruce Riedel, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution who has advised four presidents, writes that the $110 billion Saudi arms deal Trump keeps bragging is “a bunch of letters of interest or intent, but not contracts”:

It is reported Trump has hired a private law firm to deal with the Russian thingy.
Who is paying them ?

Quick reminder that 26 days ago the president publicly admitted that he fired the FBI director to impede a criminal investigation
 
That's not the case. In reviewing filings from the Eric Trump Foundation and other charities, it's clear that the course wasn't free--that the Trump Organization received payments for its use, part of more than $1.2 million that has no documented recipients past the Trump Organization. Golf charity experts say the listed expenses defy any reasonable cost justification for a one-day golf tournament.

Additionally, the Donald J. Trump Foundation, which has come under previous scrutiny for self-dealing and advancing the interests of its namesake rather than those of charity, apparently used the Eric Trump Foundation to funnel $100,000 in donations into revenue for the Trump Organization.

Kinda looks like the President stole hundreds of thousands of dollars from a charity for kids with cancer?

Trump has dinner with Marco Rubio and Tom Cotton at the White House tonight. Both senators will question James Comey on Thursday.

Clinton Foundation was damn shady, and I called it out as such plenty; but if evidence brought to light regarding the various Trumps' foundations is mostly proved true, this is an order of magnitude more demonstrably illegal.

Just asked @BetsyDeVos if she has any problem w for profit elementary school CEOs making millions off public education.

She did not.

She also refused to commit to withholding federal funding from any private school that practiced or advocated discrimination on sex/gender-identity or religious grounds. Definitely one of Dumper's most disastrous and immorally-oriented nominees, which is becoming clearer for many as she gets down to the business of Making Education Worse Again.

Heard a talk today from a writer of an article on the science of lying published in NatGeo.

One point he made was, we designate 3 degrees for murder yet only one for lies.
His comparison was Clinton lying over an affair and Bush lying us into war. Both were lies yet ...

Or in this case, "shady" charity foundations

My guess is most, if not all, charity foundations are to a degree guilty (especially if subject to the scrutiny of a POTUS campaign) of the same "shade" as Clinton Foundation.
However, gaining personal profit is illegal.
As is funneling charity donations to a political campaign.

I'm sure you get the point

Interesting tidbit. The comedian pictured in that issue is a friend of mine. He lives a couple blocks away, and I see him at most of the comedy events.
 
Supposing Trump is innocent of colluding with the Russians.

Why would he go to so much trouble to squash the investigation.
"Truth will set you free"

HRC sat and faced her accusers for 11 hours

Comey said Trump assured him there was nothing to the Russian hooker story
