She's not the president. I swear, I wish someone would point this out followed by an offer to ensure that all charges and investigations will be dropped, full stop, if he resigns his office.

If that's the road you want to go down, Donny, but your money where your mouth is and order Sessions to open up an inquiry into it.

Of course.

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-us...KBN1962Q3?il=0

Quote:
President Donald Trump on Friday will tighten rules on Americans traveling to Cuba and significantly restrict U.S. companies from doing business with Cuban enterprises controlled by the military, according to U.S. officials who have seen a draft presidential memorandum.

Trump will lay out his new Cuba policy in a speech in Miami that will roll back parts of former President Barack Obama's opening to the communist-ruled island after a 2014 diplomatic breakthrough between the two former Cold War foes.

Taking a tougher approach against Cuba after promising to do so during the presidential campaign, Trump will make clear that a ban on U.S. tourism to Cuba remains in effect and his administration will beef up enforcement of travel rules under authorized categories, the officials said.

Seriously, what the f--- is the point of this? Clearly this is just another Obama accomplishment that he wants to dismantle simply out of spite and jealousy. Unreal.

Sell weapons to Saudi and roll out the high fives... Crank up the embargo on Cuba... More high fives. 🙄

The assault on logic is mind boggling.

Also sell F-15s to Qatar after backing the Saudi coalition in ostracizing and sanctioning Qatar. o.O

It's like Trump's having an ongoing contest to see whether he can be more inept domestically, internationally, politically, legally or in basic human intelligence and decency. What a goof.

Imagine the meltdown he is going to have when the new president comes and starts to destroy all of his EO's and overturns all of his decisions. Beautiful!

They are, but it usually comes out as a stifled cry.

Looks like Pence just lawyered up.

http://www.cnn.com/2017/06/15/politi...sia/index.html

Quote:
Vice President Mike Pence has hired his own lawyer to represent him in the special counsel's Russia investigation. The lawyer, Richard Cullen, is a former Virginia attorney general and a former US attorney for the eastern district of Virginia.
Quote:
Pence's communications director Jarrod Agen said in a statement: "I can confirm that the vice president has retained Richard Cullen of McGuire Woods to assist him in responding to inquiries by the special counsel. The vice president is focused entirely on his duties and promoting the President's agenda and looks forward to a swift conclusion of this matter."

Statement from the Justice Department tonight:

Quote:
"Americans should exercise caution before accepting as true any stories attributed to anonymous 'officials,' particularly when they do not identify the country — let alone the branch or agency of government — with which the alleged sources supposedly are affiliated. Americans should be skeptical about anonymous allegations. The Department of Justice has a long-established policy to neither confirm nor deny such allegations."
Everyone seems to agree this is a little odd. The most likely explanation is that Trump demanded the DoJ do something about the leaks so they issued a statement telling them not to believe them. Second most likely possibility is that this is in regards to a specific story out there, like the Washington Post story about Kushner, which originally didn't state where the officials providing the info were from but has since been updated to say they're US. Least likely is that this is a preemptive strike against some salacious rumour that may pick up steam in the coming days.
