Robert Mueller To Testify Before House Judiciary And Intelligence Committeeshttp://www.huffpost.com/entry/mueller-testify-house-judiciary-house-intel_n_5...Then orange boy comes out with this: Trump Accuses Robert Mueller Of A Crime, Citing 'Pants On Fire' Claimhttp://news.yahoo.com/trump-mueller-testimony-153232343.htmlIran says White House is 'afflicted by mental retardation' after latest sanctionshttp://news.yahoo.com/iran-says-white-house-afflicted-131647271.htmlThen, the idiot in chief does this: Wrong Iranian leader trends on Twitter after Trump's sanctions announcementAyatollah Ruhollah Khomeini was trending on Twitter Monday afternoon and evening after President Trump mistakenly said he was issuing sanctions against the former Iranian supreme leader, who died in 1989.http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/450162-wrong-iranian-leader-...In rambling interview, Trump pronounces Biden 'a lost soul'Trump, who has also referred to the former vice president as “sleepy,” “Swampman” and “creepy,” made the remark during a phone interview on Fox Business after host Maria Bartiromo asked if the 2020 presidential election was a battle between capitalism and socialism.
“It looks like it, it looks like it, except Biden. Biden is a lost soul,” Trump said. “He doesn’t know where he is, I don’t think. He’s changing his views rapidly.”
Trump rambled through the interview, which ran for more than 45 minutes and past the scheduled end of Bartiromo’s show, occasionally talking over Bartiromo as she tried to bring him back on topic. He repeated claims that his 2016 campaign was spied on and suggested that Google is “trying to rig” next year’s election.http://news.yahoo.com/in-rambling-interview-trump-pronounces-biden-a-lost-sou...Trump is trying to rewrite the history of his family separation policy before 2020In two new interviews this week, President Donald Trump made brazen attempts to rewrite history about his administration’s ill-fated child separation policy, trying to shunt the blame to his predecessor Barack Obama.
In both instances, Trump dodged dogged questions about the family separation policy his administration implemented last year by asserting, falsely, that he inherited it from Obama. Heading into the 2020 campaign, Trump’s deflections indicate he’ll use baseless whataboutism when pressed about one of the most inhumane things his administration has done so far.
During an interview with Time, Trump was asked if he would consider reinstituting the child separation policy — something he reportedly wanted to do when he forced then-Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen to resign in April. But instead of addressing the question, Trump immediately tried to pin blame on Obama and characterized himself as “the one that put the families back together.”
While it’s true that Obama did, during a 2014 surge in migration, implement wide-scale detention of families, Trump’s administration chose a much harsher path. As part of a broader border crackdown, Trump instituted a “zero tolerance” policy in April 2018 that called for every illegal entry case to be prosecuted. That policy resulted in thousands of children being separated from their parents before Trump walked it back two months later, amid international outcry, with an executive order. (The ACLU estimates over 700 families have been separated since then due to loopholes in a federal ruling that ordered the Trump administration to reunify separated families.)http://www.vox.com/2019/6/21/18700575/trump-family-separation-policy-obama-ti...Trump on what he tells Putin: 'It's none of your business' Ahead of his expected meeting with Putin on the sidelines of this weekend’s G-20 Summit in Osaka, Japan, the president told reporters that while he expected to have a positive conversation with Putin, he would not divulge whether he will press the adversarial leader about election interference.
“I will have a very good conversation with him,” Trump said, adding, “What I say to him is none of your business.” http://www.politico.com/story/2019/06/26/donald-trump-vladimir-putin-g-20-138...Trump’s repeated defense against assault accusations: call the accuser unattractive When the president says E. Jean Carroll is “not my type,” he wants us to think sexual assault is about sex and not power.Donald Trump recycled one of his ugliest defenses against an accusation of sexual assault this week, claiming he couldn’t have raped advice columnist E. Jean Carroll in a department store dressing room 20 years ago because “she’s not my type.”
“I’ll say it with great respect: Number one, she’s not my type. Number two, it never happened. It never happened, OK?” Trump told the Hill in an Oval Office interview.
Trump has tried to peddle this idea before. In two other instances, he has conflated sexual attraction with sexual assault in his attempt to discredit accusers.http://www.vox.com/2019/6/25/18744356/donald-trump-jean-carroll-not-my-type
