Trump's ex-campaign manager charged with conspiracy against the United States

What about the Clinton dossier and its links to Russia?

Something that was given 7 minutes air time by CNN...

Quite the opposite, I'm enjoying the cries of 'but her emails' after a Trump team member admits to lying to the FBI about his on-goings as part of the campaign

For sure, definite progress.

A year+ in office and this is all we've got. Nice. Trump'll still be in the Oval Office by the end of the month. You'll be disappointed.

Paul Manafort, President Trump's ex-campaign manager, has been charged on 12 counts including conspiracy against the United States, conspiracy to launder money, unregistered agent of a foreign principal, false and misleading statements under the Foreign Agent Registration Act, false statements, and seven counts of failure to file reports of foreign bank and financial accounts. This indictment is related to special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into possible coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia to influence the 2016 election.

Beginning of the end for Trump? I think so. I can't wait to see what the Trumpites say... doubtless they'll find a way to blame Hillary Clinton.

As the Russians gradually assumed control of Uranium One in three separate transactions from 2009 to 2013, Canadian records show, a flow of cash made its way to the Clinton Foundation. Uranium One’s chairman used his family foundation to make four donations totaling $2.35 million. Those contributions were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons, despite an agreement Mrs. Clinton had struck with the Obama White House to publicly identify all donors. Other people with ties to the company made donations as well. And shortly after the Russians announced their intention to acquire a majority stake in Uranium One, Mr. Clinton received $500,000 for a Moscow speech from a Russian investment bank with links to the Kremlin that was promoting Uranium One stock.

Whether the donations played any role in the approval of the uranium deal is unknown. But the episode underscores the special ethical challenges presented by the Clinton Foundation, headed by a former president who relied heavily on foreign cash to accumulate $250 million in assets even as his wife helped steer American foreign policy as secretary of state, presiding over decisions with the potential to benefit the foundation’s donors.

The path to a Russian acquisition of American uranium deposits began in 2005 in Kazakhstan, where the Canadian mining financier Frank Giustra orchestrated his first big uranium deal, with Mr. Clinton at his side. The two men had flown aboard Mr. Giustra’s private jet to Almaty, Kazakhstan, where they dined with the authoritarian president, Nursultan A. Nazarbayev. Mr. Clinton handed the Kazakh president a propaganda coup when he expressed support for Mr. Nazarbayev’s bid to head an international elections monitoring group, undercutting American foreign policy and criticism of Kazakhstan’s poor human rights record by, among others, his wife, then a senator. Within days of the visit, Mr. Giustra’s fledgling company, UrAsia Energy Ltd., signed a preliminary deal giving it stakes in three uranium mines controlled by the state-run uranium agency Kazatomprom.

The comments on Breitbart are too absurd for words. Trumpism truly is a cult. Nothing will ever convince these people that Trump is unfit for office.

Err, yes. That donation to the Clinton Foundation was made before she was Secretary of State.

The final decision-makers on that deal were the Committee on Foreign Investment and ultimately President Obama. Every single one of the 16 government departments who were asked for input agreed with the deal. Clinton was merely one of 16.

There is no evidence whatsoever that this donation made years before the deal was even considered, before Clinton was Secretary of State, resulted in Clinton lobbying in favour of the deal.

BUT we have to be fair and balanced here - as we now know was funded by and leaked by crooked Hillary Clinton? No.

nobody ever gave control of nuclear weapons to L Ron Hubbard - he was mainly left to dribble over his tomatoes and talk weirdly in interviews.

Claims to be fair and balanced. Refers to Hilary in an incredibly unbalanced manor.

Before everyone gets too exited Trump getting booted out and replaced with a more competent evil Republican is the worse possible scenario. He needs to hang on until the next election, make the republican party a joke, then get a democrat back in.

"Trump cannot survive this" in the same way that "Trump cannot win the presidency".

* Searches for evidence that Trump has achieved anything since lying and cheating his way to the Presidency. *

How do you cheat your way to presidency?

Well, I think many would consider having the Russians spending millions on his behalf in a secretive campaign 'cheating'. But that's just many people.
