Discussion: NBC: In Meeting With Russian Lawyer, Manafort Took Notes About 'Donations'

But if he laid the ground work for preserving the information, which could aid this investigation, then his restraint will have paid off.

This would never have been cleaned up had Hillary won. And by “this” I mean the nest of spies that might be colluding with Russian hackers and operatives to subvert our democracy.

Steven Harper must see updating his timeline on all things Tramp/Russia as a near full-time job at this point and it doesn’t appear to be subsiding any time soon.

McConnell, or someone in his office, blabs about the profanity-filled conversation with PotUS. PotUS calls Grassley…and Grassley immediately tweets about it. Burr won’t set foot in the White House.

It’s a quarantine in all but name. McConnell’s conference seems to be pulling away in a way Ryan can’t.

This report looks to be addltional to the manafort…info…

Sent from a friend in Bangladeshi. …

Josh appears to be telling us to exercise caution in interpreting the few facts in this story. I agree. Only Mueller knows for sure. And now, “Great Moments in Pareidolia.”

I noticed that these kind of news always come at the end of the week (for many the week ends today). Seems like the just want Trump simmering all weekend long and deprive him of rest. Good job gentlemen!

Very true about Mensch and Taylor and how this squares with long-standing assertions of theirs. Still, Mensch has been making many over-the-top claims besides these and is hard to take seriously. I had been starting to dismiss Taylor as well, since he has been passing on (apparent) false information about Trump’s involvement in human trafficking. But now at least some of his credibility has definitely been restored. He was right in his early reports about the grand juries as well.

Follow the donations. A political campaign accepting foreign money is low hanging fruit for prosecutors.

I don’t get it. Isn’t the RNC equivalent to the Chamber of Commerce?
Lateral move.

I’m not sure what he could do to get below 30 percent. While riding down 5th Avenue in his limousine, run over a child, and throw coins to the father???

Taking notes for WHOM?

Of for sure.

This is why Preet Bharara was fired from his Federal Prosecutor role by Trump.

He was investigating this EXACT SAME THING and the Money Laundering via Real Estate Deals behind it.

Nope. He would run over the child, then sue the parent for the damage to his limo.

“Look, “donation” and “adoption” have many of the same letters in them. A majority of the letters are the same, in fact. What’s the issue?”
