Giuliani just admitted on CNN that there was a Pre-meeting to discuss the Strategy of the Russian meeting prior to it occurring, I.e the “how to collude” meeting.

Also confirmed Rick Gates was in that meeting.

I’m assuming there is a big story on the way this week.

Rudy also said that CNN wouldn't be prosecuted if they themselves colluded with the Russians.

"That would be ridiculous hehehehhohoho"

Oh and regardless of what did or didn't happen the president is completely innocent and they have about 4 witnesses.
Now we wait and see who those witnesses are.

Here's an exclusive first look at one of Rudy's star witnesses.

Witnesses (darkest timeline):
- Melania Trump
- Ivanaka Trump
- Barron Trump
- Alex Jones

Witnesses (neutral timeline)
- Rudy himself
- Hope Hicks
- Kellyanne Conway
- Mike Pence

Witnesses (dankest timeline)
- 4 playmates Trump invited to the Mar-a-lago that day

[agrajag]

I mean what the fuck does that prove? Unless those people were with him every waking hour, how can they know he wasn't informed/didn't approve the meeting in the Trump Tower?

[kingv]

Rudy might be a worse lawyer than Michael a Cohen. Having witnesses that something didn’t occur sort of implies that it did occur. How can anybody witness something that didn’t happen?

[Joe Molotov]

He was on the phone with John Barron all day, so it couldn't be true.

At this point I feel it’s pnly natural that after Trump is gone Rudy will say he only agreed to be his lawyer to bring the criminal conspiracy to light and save America just like he did for NYC after 9/11

Bill Kristol, the former editor-in-chief of The Weekly Standard, is considering challenging President Donald Trump in the 2020 Republican primary.

Kristol, who is consistently one of the most vocal anti-Trump Republicans, has been considering a run for months, a source familiar with Kristol’s thinking told The Daily Caller News Foundation.

Kristol, who remains an editor-at-large for the Standard, said he has no plans to run but declined to rule it out when asked by TheDCNF.

“No plans to run. But I’m randomly in Boston today, and happen to have had lunch with someone who does a lot of work in New Hampshire,” Kristol wrote in an email. “As he’d say, ‘Ya nevah know.'”

Remember when Kristol was hyping up a mystery independent conservative candidate in 2016 after Trump won the primary and it turned out to be the TV review guy for the National Review

The budget deficit is projected to be over a trillion dollars next year, so they're probably trying to close that gap a bit by enacting some pro-growth tax cuts that will pay for themselves.

A federal judge has ruled that Albuquerque's civil asset forfeiture program violated residents' due process rights by forcing them to prove their innocence to retrieve their cars. Under civil forfeiture laws, police can seize property suspected of being connected to criminal activity, even if the owner isn't charged with a crime.

The city of Albuquerque "has an unconstitutional institutional incentive to prosecute forfeiture cases, because, in practice, the forfeiture program sets its own budget and can spend, without meaningful oversight, all of the excess funds it raises from previous years," U.S. District Judge James O. Browning wrote in an order filed Saturday. "Thus, there is a 'realistic possibility' that forfeiture officials' judgment 'will be distorted by the prospect of institutional gain'—the more revenues they raise, the more revenues they can spend."

https://www.politico.com/story/2018/07/31/steyer-democrats-millions-midterms-751245

Tom Steyer has set plans to spend at least $110 million in 2018, making the billionaire investor the largest single source of campaign cash on the left and placing him on a path to create a parallel party infrastructure with polling, analytics and staffing capabilities that stand to shape and define the issues the party runs on in November.

...

Yet Steyer’s oversized role also stands to position him squarely against Democratic Party leadership, which has shown little appetite this fall for pursuing one of his signature causes: impeachment.

Unlike the $80 million being spent by Mike Bloomberg, Steyer will put his cash toward building out NextGen America and Need to Impeach, his two growing political organizations, as well as funding clean energy ballot initiatives in Arizona and Nevada. Steyer has already doubled his initial $20 million investment in Need to Impeach to $40 million, and has not ruled out adding more.

...

Between the two organizations, he’ll have close to 1,000 people on staff, in addition to over 2,000 volunteers. The Need to Impeach email list alone has already topped 5.5 million, which their research — anyone who signs up with the effort has their information run through a series of voter files and other databases — shows includes a very exact 697,780 infrequent voters in the 63 most competitive House districts.

“Our list is bigger than the NRA’s — and we’re going to make sure that it votes that way in 2018,” said Kevin Mack, lead strategist for Need to Impeach.

Those voters and others, according to new internal polling and focus group data commissioned by Steyer and described by people familiar with its findings, are very eager to hear Democratic candidates talking more about impeaching President Donald Trump: just 32 percent of Democrats said that they wanted their candidates to avoid the topic, while 59 percent said that they didn’t want Republicans dictating the terms of the campaign “so of course Democrats should talk about impeaching Trump if the Democrats win big in November.”

“There’s all this concern in Washington that impeachment is going to rile up Republicans, but our numbers show the opposite … It’s time to get past the establishment talking points and get to what’s really going to win elections,” Mack said, urging Democrats not to avoid impeachment “in fear of bothering 21 percent of Republicans who aren’t going to vote for us anyway.”

Need to Impeach is rolling out an extensive electoral plan, from having its most committed volunteers write postcards to other voters (which they are tracking through Smart Codes) to going in hard on field organizing, email and phone calls. Steyer will also continue to air ads through November pressing the issue in an organization where the expectation is that each buy is at least $1 million.

A couple other fun things I saw in the last 12 hour or so.

1) trump has also moved to collusion is not a crime framing. There’s definitely going to be some story that lays out that trump ordered the Russian meeting or something.

2) and it turns out Otto Warmbier probably was not beaten as his parents and the government let on.
https://www.gq.com/story/otto-warmbier-north-korea-american-hostage-true-story

I think this was supposed to be Trumps yellowcake uranium story for the March to war with North Korea before he decided that Kim Jong Un was actually a cool dude.

[benjipwns]

“I don't believe Otto was physically tortured,” Andrei Lankov said in his office in Seoul. “The campaign to make Otto a symbol of North Korea's cruelty was psychological preparation to justify military operations.”

Lankov was born on July 26, 1963, in Leningrad, Soviet Union (modern day Saint Petersburg). He completed his undergraduate and graduate studies at Leningrad State University in 1986 and 1989, respectively. He also attended Pyongyang's Kim Il-sung University in 1985.

Trump, however, has it exactly backwards: The solution to America’s immigration problems is open borders, under which the United States imposes no immigration restrictions at all. If the U.S. adopts this policy, the benefits will far outweigh the costs.

Last week, a man was indicted for threatening to kill Republican Rep. Diane Black. “They were serious enough threats that the grand jury did take action,” Black said in an interview with Fox News.

It’s been barely a year since the shooting of House Majority Whip Steve Scalise during congressional baseball practice, and the story of the threats to Black was barely a blip in our news.

The shooting last June should have been a wake-up call for our political discourse, but we’ve only been on a further slide since then.

This month, Black’s fellow GOP congressman Jason Lewis says his daughters were threatened. A man threatened to chop up Sen. Rand Paul’s family with an ax.

Another was arrested outside the campaign office of Rep. Lee Zeldin for threatening to kill supporters of President Trump. And the Nebraska GOP office had bricks thrown through its windows and graffiti painted on its wall.

“He started it” is never an excuse, and it won’t bring a lick of comfort to the family of the victim when someone inevitably dies from the escalation. Democrats need to step up and stop this before it’s too late.
