Unmasking is not spying. Unmasking is not leaking.

...If you don't understand this, you should probably stop tweeting about #SusanRice.

1/ So @seanspicer just called us a “left-wing blog.” Since we’re actually in the biz of facts, we figured we’d respond w/ a few...

2/ @seanspicer was trying to knock our story that Trump’s trust doc was revised to say he can take $ frm biz anytime propub.li/2ouRDkC

3/ @seanspicer said he’s “not aware of any change in the trust.” And he then said this: pic.twitter.com/lrQpWkZjKh

4/ The Trump trust doc was revised & signed Feb. 10. Here you go, @seanspicer: www.documentcloud.org/documents/3525993-Contracting-Officer-Letter-March-23-2017.html#document/p161/a346553 … pic.twitter.com/9odXRrFEjV

5/ We do no-surprises journalism. We told the Trump Org & WH what we knew and gave them time to explain.They didn’t. propub.li/2nxumcR pic.twitter.com/paZfZWr4W1

6/ What we do is hold people in power accountable, no matter who they are, or what names they call us. We do it with facts. Like...

7/ The fact that Tom Price bought drug company stock same day he pushed policy that could help the company. propub.li/2ouugrw

8/ The fact that Trump has quietly installed officials across the government to be his eyes and ears: propub.li/2ouJCft

9/ The fact that Jared Kushner isn’t actually separating himself from his business empire: propub.li/2nxakPR

10/ Or the fact that 5 top Trump officials have made false statements to Congress:
propub.li/2ouRtK2

11/ And yes, our job always has been and will be holding all those in power accountable.

12/ So, we wrote about fact that Obama caved to big banks and didn’t deliver on his promises to help homeowners: propub.li/2ouKKQs

13/ We wrote about former Obama officials lobbying to push through a merger that could make flying more miserable: propub.li/2ouTAhh

14/ And wrote about how Obama was falling short on his own promises to grant pardons. propub.li/2ouNNrE

15/ So any other facts you’d like to know, @seanspicer?

Watching Rachel Maddow re Carter Page. Sounds as if he practically admits being a Russian, if not operative, then at least a 'conduit of information' in the past.

It just gets worse and worse. Or better and better. Again, it's all of these little pieces and bits. When will one of them be the smoking gun?!

Hadn't realised there is an election in the Georgia 6th District on 18 April. Traditionally a conservative state but Trump only won by 1% of the vote in November. It's being seen as the first public litmus test of his Presidency: thehill.com/homenews/campaign/327018-bannon-closely-watching-ga-special-election-report

BiglyBadgers · 04/04/2017 08:28

Why you are all getting so excited and worried is beyond me. We have Theresa May trundling us all into the abyss after all.

Thankfully I have a finally honed ability to worry and can even worry about more than one thing at a time! I know this may seem incredible, but i have found that having something awful happening in one place does not seem to stop me also being concerned about awful things in other places. Sometimes i think i must have some sort of super power. Hmm

CaveMum · 04/04/2017 09:20

Is Trump now part of the establishment? www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-39483715

Yes!

Lweji · 04/04/2017 09:38

Worse than that.

Trump is the worst that the Establishment has to offer.

AndHoldTheBun · 04/04/2017 09:48

Bigly, I think I have that superpower too- sadly it's much needed these days Sad
