No matter. Mueller will find out what's true and what's not and he'll only come forward with charges that have abundant evidence (as he has done thus far). The whole latest fake news brouhaha is an unforced error by several in the MSM, but it changes nothing about possible future criminal charges against Trump and his crime family. If Trump and his minions were a stock, I'd be selling. Bigly.

Meanwhile, the Toddler-in-Chief has his daily briefing watered down so he doesn't throw a tantrum.

President Trump's daily intelligence updates are reportedly set up oftentimes in an effort not to displease him.

The Washington Post reported that U.S. officials would not say whether recent information on Russia had been included in the president's daily briefing.

A former senior intelligence official familiar with the matter said intelligence about Russia that could upset Trump is sometimes just included in the written assessment. The order in which the information is presented could also be altered to try not to upset Trump, according to the Post.

“If you talk about Russia, meddling, interference — that takes the PDB off the rails,” a second former senior U.S. intelligence official said, referring to the president's daily briefing.

Trump has never convened a Cabinet-level meeting on Russian interference or what to do about it, administration officials said. Although the issue has been discussed at lower levels at the National Security Council, one former high-ranking Trump administration official said there is an unspoken understanding within the NSC that to raise the matter is to acknowledge its validity, which the president would see as an affront.


Trump, you are an affront to everything normal, decent and good about this country.

A minor detail under the current situation. Question is how many lies has Junior told the investigating authorities.

If the news media gets something worng first and then corrects themselves, that's normal and most people will not hold it against them.

So far this "Russian Collusion" has been more noise than substance.

Not exactly. There's plenty of substance, Tovarich, for those willing to open their eyes to what's hiding in plain sight.

Up against a paywall. However the use of the word "hiding" gives away the show.

It is significant that Trump's ship has been leaking badly and up till now there is not one leak which proves "collusion".

What is obvious to any unbiased observer that there is a serious effort, especially by the MSM, to conflate the machinations of Trump's coterie and the Russian oligarchs to hustle Russia with "collusion".
