I need someone to provide me with a full briefing on the Kardashian/Jordyn Woods/Tristian Thompson/Khloe Kardashian drama as I have been a bit busy covering a few other scandals at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Many of Trump's own family members either hold senior White House positions or top roles in his 2020 re-election campaign, including his daughter-in-law Lara Trump, whose White House meetings with administration officials have also sparked controversy. newsweek.com/lara-trump-202…

A family affair for Attorney General William Barr:
His son-in-law works on Trump's legal team.
His other son-in-law works on the Justice Department's National Security division.
His daughter will work in the Treasury Department’s financial crimes unit.

Interesting way for a presidential candidate to discuss what the USIC describes as a non-state hostile intelligence service. Even more interesting that the statement is then shared almost immediately after by said non-state hostile intelligence service. twitter.com/wikileaks/stat…

Too many Americans are spending Valentine's Day placing floral arrangements in graveyards filled with shooting victims — many of them schoolchildren.
We can no longer afford to continue turning a blind eye.

We have a ruling.
Judge Amy Berman Jackson has decided that Paul Manafort “intentionally made multiple false statements to the FBI, the OSC and the grand jury concerning matters that were material to the investigation.” She especially noted the lies about Kilimnik.

Not only did the president lie about his crowd size, he claimed local fire department officials gave him "special permission" to overpack the stadium where he was holding a rally on Monday night.

As much as I wish there was a Tupac related investigation on the 2020 beat, Kamala Harris seems to be responding to DJ Envy's more general question of "What music she listens to" when she mentions Snopp Dogg and Tupac -- not answering what she listened to in college twitter.com/okayplayer/sta…

Beto O’Rourke held more than just a rally last night. His speech was a master class in fact-checking Donald Trump and refusing to let the president get away with his repeated lies about the border. My latest for @Independent independent.co.uk/news/world/ame…

Law enforcement sources say nearly 7,000+ are in attendance at Beto O’Rourke’s rally, but that doesn’t stop the Trump Campaign from spewing falsities about crowd sizes VVV twitter.com/parscale/statu…
