Oh look, @realDonaldTrump discovers socialism.

"It would be timely and appropriate for the Justice Department and Robert Mueller to reconsider the shaky policy regarding indictability of a sitting president first formulated 45 years ago."

@realDonaldTrump Then you won’t mind if all investigations go to a thorough conclusion. Only then will you rest easy...

You don’t seem innocent. You behave like someone who knows he is guilty and his only course left is to delegitimize the investigations. What a bore.

ACCOUNTABILITY.

This is serious: The FDA Commissioner who led the agency when OxyContin was approved says the agency erred and the label needs to be changed. See the latest from @60Minutes: https://t.co/C7B89eOVNc

“Yes, this is a huge victory, but to make his victims suffer for 11 years, this should not have happened. Instead of admitting what they did, and doing the right thing, they spent 11 years fighting these girls.’’

@realDonaldTrump @JussieSmollett When I learned that the attack was staged, my first thought was “this behavior is Trumpy - like the fake national emergency, the fake NK escalation that Trump may get a fake Noble Peace Prize for pretend de-escalating, and so many other ruses propagated by Don Trump.”

“There’s no evidence that thousands of Americans are killed by undocumented immigrants, especially in light of credible studies showing they commit lower rates of crime than native-born Americans”

Every claim used to support Trump’s declaration is false https://t.co/39fIJRGgXY

.@maggieNYT on Trump's claim that reporters don't reach out to the White House for comment: "That's a lie...We went through a detailed list of what we were planning on reporting. They chose not to engage." https://t.co/iGty22bHzA

[Seth quotes @mipam]

“You think of your bodies as you think of responsibilities. You think that vulnerability is wrong. Your freedom lies in your vulnerability to life sensation, experience, song and being—being is vulnerable. You can’t deny feelings without denying portions of your soul.” #Seth

@realDonaldTrump What a ding dong!

[Natasha Bertrand @NatashaBertrand]

@KenDilanianNBC Well, he doesn’t mention the CI investigation at all in the book. He couldn’t, because of the FBI’s pre-pub review process. The Times broke the story later, so now he feels he can discuss it openly. He told me this during our interview but, again, we had to cut for length.

We had to cut this for length, but McCabe told me that his guess is that the White House "immediately knew the steps I took after Jim got fired, and the cases I opened" because of Nunes. "When I was surprised to see Nunes at the briefing, I knew it would happen very quickly."
