lawyering collusion

Don't look now, but Trump's rhetoric on collusion has shifted.

In new statement, Trump claims "to the best of my knowledge" nothing happened after Trump Tower meeting.

Former WH counsel tells me this is significant.

TRUMP: Maybe he gets hit by a truck.

As former prosecutor, 3 things notable about Cohen tape:

2) Goal was to kill story before election, so campaign motivated

3) Regardless of cash or check, whole point of phony corp. was to hide campaign expenditure

Cambridge Analytica again

BBC’s Paul Wood: “An American lawyer I know told me that he was approached by a Cambridge Analytica employee after the election. They had had the Clinton emails more than a month before they were published by WikiLeaks.” https://t.co/iT8EGX1TKW

aussweiss!

Border Patrol agents shut down I-95 southbound in Maine. “If you want to continue down the road, then yes ma’am. We need to know what citizen — what country you’re a citizen of,” an agent said.
This is insane.https://t.co/ZPUnXtrTHm

🍊 deal

Trump's art of the congressional deal:

-Give mixed signals on immigration at closed-door meeting

-Insult popular congressman

-Lie publicly about the reception to the insult

-Privately urge lawmakers to pass a bill

-Wait til they commit.

-Tweet at them not to vote on bill

So President Trump denied the existence of a senior White House official, Matt Pottinger, who gave a formal briefing to journalists about the Korea summit. That's the kind of thing one expects in North Korea, not in the US.

thread explaining the perversion of laws in the children atrocity

Everyone's assuming Trump just made up a law requiring separation of children. The truth is worse. His DOJ is arguing in court that the Trafficking Victims Protections Reauthorization Act–a law designed to *protect* children–requires it.
