Barr’s tactic with the Mueller report: spin and delay – The Boston Globe
US Attorney General William Barr has some explaining to do. In the more than two weeks since Barr sent Congress his summary of the more than 400-page Mueller report it seems increasingly clear that the attorney general is doing political spadework for President Trump. In the process he’s needlessly sullied his reputation on behalf of an increasingly unhinged and chronically dishonest president. Not only did Barr endorse Trump’s “no collusion”…

Trump’s threat to close the border was just a trap for Democrats – Washington Examiner
President Trump had been vocally considering shutting down the southern border until he scaled back slightly on Thursday, giving Mexico one year to decide whether or not they’ll comply with his demands. His White House team probably talked him back from the ledge, since it seems he’s the only one in his own administration willing to take such a drastic step. Indeed, senior staffers and Department of Homeland Security officials…

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump told reporters on Friday that he would not attend this year’s White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner, and will instead hold a rally the evening of April 27.

Trump did not attend that dinner, either, but some members of his administration were there, including Press…

Mika Brzezinski recalls ‘unbelievably inappropriate hug’ from Donald Trump on set – AOL
“Morning Joe” co-host Mika Brzezinski criticized President Trump on Friday for a viral video the billionaire made mocking Joe Biden’s penchants for hugging — hinting ominously of an inappropriate moment Trump had on set. “Talk about somebody with boundary issues,” Brzezinski said. “Kind of makes me want to share the story about Trump’s unbelievably inappropriate hug in our studio.” Brzezinski’s co-host (and husband) Joe Scarborough seemed less keen on sharing,…
