News, analysis and interviews with politicians and observers. Several other top campaign officials, and with russians who had ties to the kremlin. On sunday, this tweet describing in the clearest terms yet what this meeting was about. This was a meeting, the president tweeted, to get information on an opponent, totally legal and done all the time in politics and it went nowhere. Adding lastly, i did not know about it. Now remember, when the New York Times was first breaking news of this meeting, the president Helped Don Junior Draft a statement that claimed it was about adoption policy. After that was proven to be a lie, the president s story began evolving, to use a polite term. This is a year ago in paris.

Hi, everyone. Its 4 00 in new york. The breaking news today, federal Law Enforcement officials arrested a florida man suspected of orchestrating the mail bomb campaign against critics of donald trump. The arrest comes as three additional explosive devices were found. The new targets included senator kamala harris, senator cory booker, and James Clapper, the former director of national intelligence. The suspect, cesar sayoc, 56, is from aventura florida, just north of miami. Hes a registered republican, and a van covered with protrump stickers was also seized this morning.
