So a trump tell is to accuse others o fwhat you've done.

Is this why trump was pushing the alleged $3.5m Biden got from russia? (All false by the way) Because we know trump claimed he had no business deals with russia, until Cohen revealed all his business deals with russia, the Mueller report detailed the russian money directed into his campaign fund, the russian money into the NRA used to support trumps campaign, the inflated value condo dealing...


President Donald Trump claimed that former Vice President Joe Biden received $3.5 million from Russia and that it "came through Putin because he was very friendly with the former mayor of Moscow, and it was the mayor of Moscow's wife. You got $3.5 million. Your family got $3.5 million."

Facts First: This is false.
Trump was seemingly trying to raise an allegation previously made against Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, but there's no connection to Joe Biden.

Hunter Biden also denies the allegation he received $3.5 million. Hunter Biden's lawyer, George Mesires, told CNN that Hunter Biden was not an owner of the firm Senate Republicans allege received the $3.5 million payment in 2014.
A partisan investigation conducted by Senate Republicans, whose report was released this month, alleged that Elena Baturina, a Russian businesswoman and the wife of late Moscow mayor Yuri Luzhkov, sent $3.5 million in 2014 to a firm called Rosemont Seneca Thornton, and that the payment was identified as a "consultancy agreement." The report did not provide any further details about the transaction.
Hunter Biden was a co-founder and CEO of the investment firm Rosemont Seneca Advisors. But Mesires said Hunter Biden did not co-found Rosemont Seneca Thornton. It's not clear what connection exists between Rosemont Seneca Advisors and Rosemont Seneca Thornton.

Neither the Senate report nor Trump have provided any evidence that the payment was corrupt or that Hunter Biden committed any wrongdoing.

Donald Trump's more sedate debate performance on Thursday night was a departure in tone from his chaotic performance weeks ago, but the President continued to cast his warped view of the world as truth.

In reality, Trump's performance was riddled with false claims, on topics ranging from the coronavirus to foreign policy to immigration. And while former Vice President Joe Biden made some missteps and stretched the truth at times, his comments essentially hewed to the truth.

Trump came into the debate needing to clean up from his first performance and he clearly listened to his advisers who urged him to turn down the heat and stop his incessant interruptions. But the President relied heavily on the same rhetoric that fills his raucous rallies and Twitter feed, just set at a lower volume. His lies ranged from the political, like when he falsely claimed the coronavirus was "going away" or that a vaccine to end the pandemic was ready, to the personal, like when he falsely said Biden has "houses all over the place" or lied about Biden receiving millions of dollars from Russia. And his lies were clearly aimed at politically important issues, like health care, the economy and coronavirus, three topics that voters say are critical to them as they head to the ballot box.

Biden's misstatements were more on the margins, like when he falsely claimed that he never said he opposed fracking, understated the number of people for whom Trump has granted clemency and made a misleading claim about health care coverage losses under Obamacare.

Images were doing the rounds of McConnell yesterday.

https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/amberjamieson...

In response:
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell did not answer questions about his health Thursday, only saying there were "no concerns" after reporters asked him about what appeared to be bruises and bandages on his hands in recent days.

"Of course not," McConnell told reporters in the Capitol when asked if he had any health issues people should know about.
McConnell, who is up for reelection, later said there were "no concerns" when asked directly by CNN about the apparent bruises or if he had any other problems.

The 78-year-old did not respond when asked if he was being treated by a doctor. An aide to McConnell also declined to provide any additional details when asked multiple times about the majority leader's health.

‘Release your tax returns or stop talking about corruption’

What a line.
Joe Biden had the line of the night after Donald Trump kept ranting about so many other Democratic candidates: “He’s a very confused guy. He thinks he’s running against somebody else. He’s running against JOE BIDEN.”

or trump saying: “I am the least racist person. I can’t even see the audience because it’s so dark.” biggrin I'm not racist but...

Did you notice Melania was there, because of course Jill Biden would be, but only two days ago she was too ill from CV-19 to go to trumps rally...
One has to wonder how much that cost trump to get her there biggrin

trump child separation -


The 545 children whose parents have not been found were all initially placed in shelters or foster homes under the supervision of H.H.S. They were then released to sponsors, who are typically relatives or family friends.

About 362 of the children also cannot be located because the contact information provided by their sponsors is no longer current. Many of the children are believed to be in the United States, though some may have returned to their home countries since they were released from federal custody.

They just took the children without caring about what happened afterwards

It appears the redactions all relate to underage sex allegations involved persons, those details would be protected unless released during their own process.
Thanks for the reply.

I thought perhaps some of the redacted names may be somewhat, er, contentious.
It's pretty clear who one of them is at least, in the part about activities in a London apartment, where a photo is discussed.

We are about to see volume 10 of the President Trump thread. I hope it’s the last if it’s kind.

But I worry that America is more stupid than I can imagine.
