About a Russian Oligarch and putin confident are not true. Its a confidential binding document that according to the times lays out a deal between Oleg Deripaska and trumps department and relieves deripaska from hundreds of millions of dollars of debt and allows he and allies to keep majority ownership. This is stunning and crucial and not just stunning because deripaska is central to the russia investigation, it is stunning because when trumps treasury secretary Steven Mnuchin announced sanctions were lifted on da eripaska, he said was losing control of the company. That was the just ification. She said they were undergoing governance deripaskas control. Begging the question why and as we ask that question, it comes as President Trumps lawyer Rudy Giuliani is trying to change the timeline on how President Trump was personally working on a major deal in moscow during the campaign, a deal that involved putin. Giuliani quoting trump himself to the New York Times saying the talks were quo

Cummings, of course, the chair of the Oversight Committee investigating the administration, he was the target of an onslaught, at least 19 tweets by the president over the weekend and into this morning. His defenders struggling to answer for him. Plus, look at what he said and why he did it. Congressman cummings has sat there and attacked our Border Patrol agents. All right. This reminds me of what happened to soldiers coming back from vietnam. That justifies a racial resentment tweet in response. Is that president ial leadership . Well, look, i didnt do the tweets, chuck. I didnt do the tweets. Critics didnt hold back labeling the tweets racist, including the president s description of cummings district as a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess. The congressman fired back,
Then on sunday came the other story, this one from the Washington Post, this one revealing, trump, quote, has gone to extraordinary lengths to conceal details of his conversations with russian president Vladimir Putin, including on at least one occasion taking possession of the notes of his own interpreter, and instructing the linguist not to discuss what had transpired with other Administration Officials, current and former officials said. Trump spent the weekend fuming about the times story on twitter unleashing a barrage of attacks aimed mostly at the former leadership of the fbi. Today he went after the news media, and we quote, the fake news gets crazier and more dishonest every single day.
