Comey Memos: Clear Proof Trump Repeatedly Lied About His Trip To Moscow

There are a host of revelations and confirmations in the Comey memos released yesterday evening.

But again, he clearly and repeatedly lies about the trip itself, specifically how long he was there. This seems highly significant to me.

Let’s look at the details. Read More

‘It’s Relatively Remote’

TPM Reader KM gives us some color on the El Caribe social club …

Being from Brooklyn, I wanted to drill down on exactly where it is and give it some color.

It’s actually in Mill Basin. It may not matter to a national audience, but that’s actually a few neighborhoods away from Russian immigrant communities of Brighton Beach and Sheepshead Bay. It’s off the Marine Park / Flatlands neighborhoods.
