Discussion: New Details Emerge In Timeline Of Don. Jr Meeting, Kushner's Foreign Contacts

eQIP is notoriously annoying when it comes to verifying your entry before submission. No way someone pressed send before ready because the system asks too many questions before it lets you go final.

From the article: It’s unclear if Trump’s legal team concealed the meeting from their client after they were informed about it in the third week of June [2017], or if the President is not being upfront about when he learned about it.

Let’s see, the meeting was on June 9, 2016. The first email was on June 3; the phone call to Emin the Singer was on June 6. Trump found out June 3, 2016 - June 6 at the latest - and has been lying ever since.

Because:

  1. The music sounds cool
  2. At this rate with the Trump Administration we made need to learn it.

I thought that Yahoo news was only for those ā€œYahoosā€ who post silly comments. Nice to see them doing work.

I co-sign that. My favorite of the names is Allegra -I think that’s a gorgeous name but the edge is slight. Esme is great too - they are just all cool as fuck. hahahaha

So… someone posted on another thread that Jaime Gorelick, Kushner’s lawyer, has stepped down. The link was to Yahoo news. Has any other outlet confirmed? because if she has, having to amend an amended filing because she was being lied to by her client would seem to be a pretty good reason to resign from the case. It’s interesting because, aside from the guy who just agreed to do PR (again, why??), she was the only lawyer who seemed to have experience in the relevant specialties.

Nice to see ā€œAliceā€ making a comeback.

Daily Beast is reporting that she’s being replaced by the lawyer who represented John Edwards and Jack Abramoff. Sounds about right. http://www.thedailybeast.com/jared-kushners-russia-lawyer-drops-him

Rosemary Woods was amazing - never saw a woman with an 8’ wingspan!

But I think Jared’s assistant has her beat - it’s takes a very special kind of stoopid to accidentally enter passwords and okay okay info on a form TWENTY-EIGHT FUCKING TIMES that later get your boss in trouble…

Still believing T Sr. knew about meeting before it occurred and was briefed on it after. Per his subsequent tweet and pre meeting speech promising a followup. Just saying.

The SF86 has to be printed out, signed, and then sent.

It is impossible to ā€œaccidentally hit send.ā€

Jared is a liar—just like the Trump family.

Sam Thielman is doing a good job, too! Esme gets a few extra props from me because she always seems to pick the short straw for weekend duty 'round here.

I’m just glad that ā€œKatharineā€ from last summer is gone. Did not like her reporting, it felt lazy and filled with cliches and I got really pissed when she kept referring to Tramp as a ā€œbillionaire business mogulā€ while Josh was questioning his wealth on the same front page.

Whoa! Pretty sure that particular comparison is a first.

Goodness, blaming it on staff? Maybe it’s the same person who copied Michelle Obama’s speech into Melania’s. Or the one who failed to make hotel arrangements for the G20.

No matter! Ivanka and Jared are off to commune with their God and then spend some time relaxing in Sun Valley. This government stuff is so exhausting.

They have all been a MAJOR step up from Sahil Kapur, IMO. His combination of ā€œChicken Littleā€ what-if scenarios, and what I used to characterize as sitting around with his right wing buddies at a bar and writing up their discussions used to get on my last nerve.
