The delivery of the Mueller report marks a turning point that will shape the remainder of Mr. Trump’s presidency and transform the political landscape heading into 2020. https://t.co/DZtn6c1QV9

USTR says granting PNTR to China in 2000 was a big mistake. But as I argue @Reason, time has proven it was one of Congress' finest bipartisan moments.

I’ve been working on sanctions policy for 15+ years. Don’t recall ever seeing a president overrule a Treasury announcement AFTER it was announced.

[Saleha Mohsin @SalehaMohsin]

Tweeting this again: Staff at the U.S. office in charge of financial sanctions are leaving in droves due to management turmoil and growing private-sector demand for its expertise

This investigation was closed without Trump ever sitting for a formal interview. His lawyers did not want him to and Mueller never sought a fight over subpoenaing the president. Written answers was what the Mueller team got.

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

Again, complete ineptitude.

[Justin Wolfers @JustinWolfers]

This is the first genuinely bad Trump pick for the Fed. But make no mistake: It's a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad pick. He hasn't gotten a thing right in twenty years, (check the record), and the Senate should not confirm him.

[Robert Costa @costareports]

On phone w/ Giuliani, who's tracking Mueller news like everyone else in D.C., with TV on, scrolling through Twitter, and making calls. He spoke with POTUS this morning.

“It’s like waiting for a baby” to be born, Giuliani says. “If the report is good, I’ll give out cigars.”

"Mexico’s chief negotiator for the USMCA predicted this week that congressional Democrats will take issue with nine or 10 of the deal's provisions, delaying a vote on the agreement and pressuring the Trump administration to compromise on a “a couple” of top priorities."

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

THINK about the fact that we don’t just have a mentally unstable president—but a president who thinks he needs to be re-elected to avoid being indicted. (At least in that one respect his thinking is clear.)

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

Again, lying in the face of the obvious. Absurd. Pathological. Compulsive.

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

Yet another lie, apart from the disgrace of his attacks the late Sen. McCain. Again, his compulsion to lie knows no bounds. His mendacity is unprecedented for a public official. He debases his office, and all around him, especially those who shamelessly defend him.

[Megan Cassella @mmcassella]

Your periodic reminder that the USMCA has yet to be ratified by any of the three countries and has not taken effect

[David Halbfinger @halbfinger]

Trump is so present in Netanyahu’s campaign imagery, you’d think one were the other’s running mate. A close look at this very special relationship. https://t.co/LfUulLvGK9

The President is playing golf again today - now his 173rd day at a Trump golf course as president.

[Josh Dawsey @jdawsey1]

The president has finished his round of golf and appears to be watching TV.

[S.V. Dáte @svdate]

No, "major sections of Wall" are not being built.

That is a lie.

The only way he can make that claim is if he redefines the fence that Bush and Obama built and maintained to be "wall."

[Josh Dawsey @jdawsey1]

President Trump is signing bibles for volunteers and survivors at a Baptist church in Alabama.
