He reunited families separated under Trump. Now he’s running for Congress.

It is not normal for a U.S. envoy to coach the Kremlin on how to influence an American president, especially in a way that undercuts Ukrainian and American national interests. As I told @NPR's Morning Edition.

Trump: "Things happen."

Disgusting man.
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

“You’ve learned some flashy tricks, your holiness, but you’ve forgotten the essence of the game … it’s about the cones.

I move my abbot to the ocean hex,

which moves my brinksman to the devil's lair,

and pushes my farmer, yes, my humble farmer,

directly into the central cone.

New: The Pentagon confirms to CNN it will funnel $130M from an anonymous Trump “friend” toward military pay.

Asked about the donor’s identity and any foreign or domestic entanglements, the WH referred questions to DoD. DoD then referred questions back to the WH

I’m sorry, this summary does not accurately reflect the statements in the Dutch article. As such I’d classify it as fake news.

All the article says is the Dutch security services now are more careful in determining what they will and won’t share with the Americans.

Which I think is prudent.
