I sat down with an nba great after lebron just opened a school for 240 at risk third and forty graders. And during our conversation lebron said this. We are in a position right now in america more importantly where this whole race thing has taken over, and one because i believe our president is kind of trying to divide us.

him . No. I would sit across from barack, though. He made lebron look smart, which isnt easy to do, i like mike. Unlike this president who lashes
What was he projecting when he was tweeting that meeting at the trump tower was about getting dirt on Hillary Clinton . Why would he tweet something that completely contradicts the statement that they wrote saying it wasnt about that and that he lied to us saying he had nothing to do with it. I rest my case. Come on, hes saying exactly what is happening and exactly what is true about him. He cannot help himself. Listen, you know, chris, we do not take this lightly. When this man was on the campaign trail with every being to be objective and report him in a fair equitable manner. And then when we became president of the United States, the same thing. It always gets me when people say this study shows theres 90 of the reports show about this president are negative, but they dont talk about the things that comes out of his mouth and the policies he proposes and what he says or does to people. How are we as media to report positively on something thats negative . The president called count

Manafort. The defense is going to go on offense to attack gates credibility. All of that is part of the drama today. The nuts and bolts of this case are still in the numbers, in the tax fraud, bank fraud, alleged deals for these clients allied with the putin regime. Now, Paul Manafort faces 18 fraud charges from a time before he ever joined the trump campaign. This was all the ukrainian consulting work, which means theres a ton of paper and prosecutors are arguing to this jury whatever happens with mr. Gates, the paper doesnt lie.
