The following CNN story omits one extremely important fact:

You could easily get all excited as you read this story,  but for one thing:  Nowhere in this news report is there evidence that Don Jr or anyone in the Administration took advantage of this decryption gift  . . . .   no one.  This report indicts those making the promise and exempts those who listened but decided not to take the bait.  Period.  End of story  ~  editor.  

Washington (CNN)Candidate Donald Trump, his son Donald Trump Jr. and others in the Trump Organization received an email in September 2016 offering a decryption key and website address for hacked WikiLeaks documents, according to an email provided to congressional investigators.

The September 4 email was sent during the final stretch of the 2016 presidential race -- on the same day that Trump Jr. first tweeted about WikiLeaks and Clinton.
 
"WIKILEAKS: Hillary Clinton Sent THOUSANDS of Classified Cables Marked "(C)" for Confidential," he tweeted, sharing a story from the Gateway Pundit, a conservative, pro-Trump website.
The email came two months after the hacked emails of the Democratic National Committee were made public and one month before WikiLeaks began leaking the contents of Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta's hacked emails.

    1. Bad to worse? Trump still more popular than Congress, Pelosi or Schumer. Just wait until this tax bill kicks in. Bye bye 2018. Its coming and you can't stop it.

  2. A historically unpopular tax bill pushed through by a historically unpopular congress and signed by an historically unpopular president who is under criminal investigation, and now supports an accused child molester for congress. Can you get any lower?

    1. We haven't had a tax cut/reform for 30 years, so OF COURSE this is historical.

      The last I heard, Trump is not under criminal investigation. And Moore is not supported by as many folks as you pretend to know. In fact, the plan is to get Moore elected, run him through an ethics investigation, kick him to the curb and put a new appointee in his place.

      And Trump is still more popular than Congress or either Chuck or Nancy.
