From an aide briefed on the Trump/Congressional leader meeting:

Trump Jr. Says He Wanted Russian Dirt to Determine Clinton’s ‘Fitness’ for Office

http://www.palmerreport.com/politics/drought-trump-north/4781/
Donald Trump traveled to North Dakota today for what was supposed to have been a speech about tax cuts. Instead he proceeded to babble incoherently and embarrass himself, while getting creepy with his own daughter, and admitting that he has no idea how things like climate and geography work.
North Dakota is currently being hit hard by a drought. That was apparently news to Trump when he arrived in the state today, not only because he pays no attention to anything going on in the country that he’s supposed to be the president of, but also because he didn’t think it was possible. Trump actually said to the crowd that he didn’t know a drought could happen “this far north.” No really, he said this.

https://www.deathandtaxesmag.com/344295/trump-ad-schumer-pelosi-trying-to-stop-him/?utm_campaign=Echobox&utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#link_time=1504799194
Donald Trump has been in constant campaign mode ever since taking office, because running for office is way more fun than actually reading policy papers or learning how to govern. As such, Trump released a campaign-style ad on Thursday, slamming “Career politicians and the media trying to stop him,” while flashing pictures of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren, and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi.
It’s all fear mongering to whip up Trump’s base around the idea that he is the one man in the history of the presidency who deserves no oversight and should be left on his own to make decisions about a job he was clearly unprepared for. Exceeeeepppttt… Trump cut a deal with Pelosi and Schumer over the debt ceiling just one day before this ad came out.

http://www.palmerreport.com/opinion/donation-fiasco-trump/4715/
The Trump Foundation’s own publicly available nonprofit records make clear that Donald Trump stopped donating to his own foundation after the 2008 economic crash, and he never did resume donating. That means his financial situation has been so upside down since 2008 that there hasn’t been a single year where he would have even benefited from a charitable write-off. That suggests he’s been showing a net income of zero each year. Since that time he’s been caught pilfering from his charity, using it to buy things and pay his lawsuit settlements.

http://www.palmerreport.com/politics/hicks-promotion/4825/
Yesterday we learned that Trump White House adviser Hope Hicks is about to become a star witness in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s obstruction investigation, whether she wants to be or not. Among the six current and former Trump advisers Mueller is targeting, Hicks is the most senior adviser who still has a job. Speaking of seniority, Donald Trump recently gave Hicks a strange interim promotion, right around the time he figured out that she was going to be a key witness.

In 1994, Trump took a 13-year-old girl to a party with Jeffrey Epstein, a billionaire who was a notorious registered sex offender, and raped her that night in what was a "savage sexual attack," according to a lawsuit filed in June 2016 by "Jane Doe." #SexualPredatorTrump

Bill Clinton and Trump were both friends with Epstein (and so were other people like Chris Tucker), so that's not fake news.

I can tell you that I know for a fact that Trump owes back taxes of an insurmountable amount that would cripple his family for years.

He has been fighting this for almost five years via attorneys but that's when he became anti-Obama and anti-Government.

BREAKING: (Thread) A conservative operative trumpeting his close ties to the NRA and Russia told Trump campaign adviser, Rick Dearborn last year that he could arrange a back-channel meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir V. Putin, the Russian president...
According to the NYT, "A May 2016 email to Dearborn bore the subject line “Kremlin Connection.” In it, the N.R.A. member said he wanted the advice of Dearborn and Sessions, then a foreign policy adviser to Trump about how to proceed in connecting the two leaders.
Torshin is a Russian Mafia Kingpin accused of laundering Money for organized crime. He has incredibly close ties with the Kremlin and Putin. This all took place nearly 6 months prior to the election.
