Too lazy to quote article myself :b
 
Just resubscribed to the NYTimes. Essentially a $10.50 donation every month to help bring Trump down. Will probably also do the Washington Post.

This is EVIDENCE of collusion. Isn't it?

Yes. If the FI have this emaiBl, that is. Which, I don't see why they wouldn't, at this point.

This tells me one thing: The FBI has already reached the point in their evidence gathering where they could be making arrests.
 
Lurker here. Also dying to see the Bruce Springsteen spin. One of the few things to make me come out of the woodwork around here.

Trump Jr. gets an email saying "Hey we're Russia we want to help your dad's campaign" and they want me to believe Jr. didn't immediately run to daddy?

BULL

SHIT
You can guarantee he did. Just like his dad he's a rotten liar.

This is kind of hilariously amazing. They've put DJT in the position where he has to throw his own son under the bus.

Yeah, that's the hilarious part. Not only did he somehow not go tell his dad, he was in the same building as this meeting. No way Trump Sr. didn't know about this shit. No way in hell.

That's also probably the funny thing that could come up during questioning. If Jr. didn't tell his dad the only logical explanation would be to protect him from wrong doing, which means Jr. knew it was wrong.

That's my first reaction too.
Don is so eager to please daddy there is no way he thought to himself "ooh I better sit on this news". At the very least he told Donald trump
And more likely Donald knew from manafort etc before this date that he would be lifted by Russia.
 
Lawfare's Susan Hennessey said on NPR that the matter of collusion might not be technically illegal. I'd honestly love to see them play up that angle.

They already are, fortunately collusion would usually involve trading of things of value which would fall under conspiracy or any number of campaign finance violations which are crimes. So the changing narrative on the right regarding the legality of collusion means something big must be coming.

Wow trump defenders have hit a new low. The mental gymnastics required to defend this shit is very impressive.

Can't wait to see the Republicans do nothing with obvious evidence. Depressing doesn't begin to describe...

In Mueller we trust.

Well, this is about Jr above anyone else right now. I mean, he had obvious ties to the campaign even though I'm not sure he was officially part of it. Congress really can't protect Jr.

But the president can.

And his party won't stop him.
