The Reuters story from tonight, to be clear, means that Jared Kushner is ON TAPE talking to Sergey Kislyak PRE-ELECTION. April and November.

#BREAKING G7 statement to acknowledge climate deadlock with US: officials

TheClaws · 27/05/2017 12:39

Wouldn't it be awesome for NATO countries to refute Trump's latest tweet re: the payment of monies.

lionheart · 27/05/2017 13:01

Yes it would and if they could be less than diplomatic in their language, that might be helpful too.

Just a reminder that Sessions, who is charged with enforcing our country's laws, also met with Kislyak twice and hid those meetings.

Significant: @USNavy deploying #CVN68 (USS Nimitz) to Western Pacific, meaning there'll soon be three carrier-led strike forces in region.

Crime timeline template. Grin

Mortificado, that is magnificent.

PerkingFaintly · 27/05/2017 13:21

Oh no, I've just seen your post, lionheart. That's absolutely horrible.Sad

lionheart · 27/05/2017 13:23

Sorry--I tried to find a link that didn't have such a horrible headline (especially as that particular detail does not appear in the US reports I have read).

PerkingFaintly · 27/05/2017 13:25

No no, not the headline's fault. It's ghastly in so many ways, not just that detail.

lionheart · 27/05/2017 14:52

Yes, horrible without any detail. Those poor people.

AcrossthePond55 · 27/05/2017 15:05

This is just the kind of thing that will happen more and more. Because, you know, hate is OK now.

I really can't think of anything to say about Trump's EU visit. It was an embarrassment from beginning to end. It's humiliating. It's like having your abusive STBXH take a shit on the lawn in the middle of a garden party. You hope everyone knows that you hate him, you are doing your best to be rid of him, and that you cannot control his actions, but you still worry that you'll be tainted by association.

I just woke up, so thanks for the 'catch up'. It seems as if more and more dirty deeds are coming to light. And I only hope that what we are being allowed to see is only a snapshot of the 'whole picture'. I still say that impeachment is so far off as to be impractical before the 2020 election, but that all the investigations plus the 2018 elections will effectively tie the GOPs hands before they can do much further damage.

cozietoesie · 27/05/2017 15:10

My large concern is that Blah Blah 101 sort of demands a 'small war' to.........coalesce opinion behind the CIC at this point. It's in the playbook.

Maybe he's getting bored with his shiny new toy. Getting a wee bit too complicated for his poor brain and keeping him off the golf course.

Will our reality TV president walk away from last best hope against climate change? And what will become of our planet? Tune in to find out!

Gumpendorf · 27/05/2017 16:10

Oh to be a fly on the wall in the climate change debate and watch the 6 grapple with the 1's limited thinking. A couple of paras stood out:

His views are evolving, he came here to learn," Cohn said. "His basis for decision ultimately will be what's best for the United States."

You sort of get the sense that he doesn't feel comfortable in this group," he said.

It's a bit like what Vladimir Putin was like when Russia was in the G8; [looking] a little bit separate, looking a bit surly and like he doesn't really belong here. [Trump] seemed to be much more comfortable in Saudi Arabia and in Israel," said Lee.
