Quote:The Definitive Story Of How Trump’s Team Worked The Trump Moscow Deal During The Campaign
Quote:All through the hot summer campaign of 2016, as Donald Trump and his aides dismissed talk of unseemly ties to Moscow, two of his key business partners were working furiously on a secret track: negotiations to build what would have been the tallest building in Europe and an icon of the Trump empire — the Trump World Tower Moscow.
Talks to construct the 100-story building continued even as the presidential candidate alternately bragged about his relationship with Vladimir Putin and rejected suggestions of Russian influence, and as Russian agents worked to sway US public opinion on Trump’s behalf.

Pretty sure that's exactly what the NYT said when they got scooped by mother jones.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

But... maybe an actual news source?
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Somewhere with a history of doing actual journalism rather than clickbaity stuff. WaPoc, NYT, etc. I can’t take “Buzzfeed News” too seriously when the Buzzfeed home page has a trending article titled “Are these British villages or Marvel characters?”

Fucking snob. You really think you're going to get a ranking of Spongebob memes from that snooty New York Times? It is to laugh, ha ha.

Don't mock, they have the definitive story guys. No more need to report or investigate this, buzz feed has pretty much solved it all on their own. Has Mueller interviewed buzzfeed yet?
