White house when it comes to these sorts of things. and of course trump didnt do himself any favors when he fired james comey. mueller is very well respected. so these are bureaucrats who have been in place for many, many years, theyve been through many administrations, they try to keep partisan politics out of this and keep their heads down and do their jobs and trump is stepping in and in a lot of their eyes i think is kind of up ending all of that and theyre lashing out by sending anonymous t...

Conversations. this is a reference to the conversation at the mayflower hotel and the other at the rnc convention after the russian effort to influence the u.s. election for donald trump was indeed under way. and all of this comes, of course, with some context. donald trump lashing out at the man at the center of this article, jeff sessions, over what? well, over the recusal from the russia inquiry and that very odd "new york times" interview, donald trump did not apparently clear it with his le...
