It got referred to Rosenstein. Likely then to Mueller. Just another thing on the pile, essentially.

I like that Avenatti says that he knows of two other women that were payed to keep quiet about affairs with Trump, and he did it the day after Trump's financial disclosure which had no payments like that except for the stuff we already knew about. And I bet that if Trump were to come out with amendments to his financial disclosure Avenatti would mention more payments he knows about.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

The guy is not bad at this.

 

[Schlosser85]

Avenatti is a showboat but he’s good at what he does.

 

[Hotwire]

Take it to the Israel thread guys.

Agreed. There are a lot of renewed racism issues thank to Trump as well but, they're not really discussed here.

As long as he punishes Trump.

 

[Marvolo]

You keep using weird false equivalences like this. Israel's conduct is unacceptable, but black American men aren't trying to move across a border into another country and they aren't using makeshift weapons to do so. They also don't support an organization that's trying to drive a certain demographic out of the USA.

Kind of hard for those people to know where the borders are when Israel keeps stealing land and bulldozing homes.

This.

I haven't quite liked how he has come across, but I have to hand it to him, he is fighting Trump very effectively.

EDIT: And apparently Manafort's former son-in-law and business partner has flipped.

Trump weighs in on Laurel vs. Yanny and you know what, it's pretty funny (knowing that it's a PR move)

International law says otherwise, but why pay attention to that when one is justifying a country committing murder.

I'm done, this is talking to a brick wall at this point.

Basically a microcosm of the wider situation and why this'll never be solved. It's literally "half the people hear 'Yanny', half the people hear 'Laurel'."

 

[Sithborg]

Looks like Trump is going full conspiracy theorist this morning.

 

[squeekness]

Isn't that every morning?

NY Times - F.B.I. Used Informant to Investigate Russia Ties to Campaign, Not to Spy, as Trump Claims

https://mobile.nytimes.com/2018/05/18/us/politics/trump-fbi-informant-russia-investigation.html

In fact, F.B.I. agents sent an informant to talk to two campaign advisers only after they received evidence that the pair had suspicious contacts linked to Russia during the campaign. The informant, an American academic who teaches in Britain, made contact late that summer with one campaign adviser, George Papadopoulos, according to people familiar with the matter. He also met repeatedly in the ensuing months with the other aide, Carter Page, who was also under F.B.I. scrutiny for his ties to Russia.

The informant also had contacts with Mr. Flynn, the retired Army general who was Mr. Trump’s first national security adviser. The two met in February 2014, when Mr. Flynn was running the Defense Intelligence Agency and attended the Cambridge Intelligence Seminar, an academic forum for former spies and researchers that meets a few times a year.

According to people familiar with Mr. Flynn’s visit to the intelligence seminar, the source was alarmed by the general’s apparent closeness with a Russian woman who was also in attendance. The concern was strong enough that it prompted another person to pass on a warning to the American authorities that Mr. Flynn could be compromised by Russian intelligence, according to two people familiar with the matter.

Looks like Pence is going after Planned Parenthood.

I don't see how you can prevent a doctor from telling a patient where they can go for care is legal.

All you have to do is live by his incredibly strict, contradictary and hypocritical standards and this won't be a problem (helps not to be female either).

Of course, the pro-Trump trolls assume that the Obama administration was interfering with the 2016 election...
