According to The New York Times, Donald Trump's campaign aides did contact Russian intelligence the year before the election, just when Trump was speaking highly of Vladimir Putin, and there are recorded phone conversations to prove it. The NYT article says:

Phone records and intercepted calls show that members of Donald J. Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and other Trump associates had repeated contacts with senior Russian intelligence officials in the year before the election, according to four current and former American officials.

American law enforcement and intelligence agencies intercepted the communications around the same time they were discovering evidence that Russia was trying to disrupt the presidential election by hacking into the Democratic National Committee, three of the officials said. The intelligence agencies then sought to learn whether the Trump campaign was colluding with the Russians on the hacking or other efforts to influence the election.

This story started with a report on Politico on Friday, February 10, regarding a meeting between Donald Trump and some legislators in which Trump said people were taken in buses from Massachusetts to New Hampshire in order to vote illegally, thus costing him the popular vote in the state.

The claim is a lie simply because New Hampshire law requires photo ID in order to vote. People without a photo ID get a photo taken at the polling station and are requiring to sign affidavits stating they are who they say they are.

HYPOCRISY: Trump tweets about Muslim detained in Paris, but not about attack on Canadian mosque

So this morning Donald Trump tweeted this:



The tweet refers to the fact that a Frenc soldier shot a Muslim man who entered a store at the Louvre museum in Paris and attacked another soldier with a machete. The man had two backpacks with him but the backpacks did not have explosives.

The problem with this is the fact that five days before, on January 29, 2017, a far-right, White Christian extremist who is also a Trump supporter, shot and killed 6 people at a Mosque in Quebec, the French-speaking region of Canada. But Trump didn't tweet anything about it.

DAY 15: Unemployment goes up with Trump in office

According to figures from the Labor Department, the unemployment rate in January, 2017, went up from 4.7% the previous month to 4.8%. In other words, unemployment went up with Donald Trump in office.

Now, to be fair, Trump was in office only 10 and a half days in January, 2017. Which means Trump and Barack Obama share the responsibility for the unemployment increase. As to how much each share the blame is dabatable, but let's say Obama owns two thirds of the blame (since he was President for only two thirds of the month) and one third of the blame belongs to Trump.

HOWEVER...

Trump changes course on Israel settlements and Russia; To soften Congress?

This is certainly strange. The Trump administration is changing positions on Israeli settlements and Russia's Ukraine intervention.

First, according to The New York Times, the Trump administration said the following in a statement about expanding Israeli settlements into Palestinian territories:

“While we don’t believe the existence of settlements is an impediment to peace, the construction of new settlements or the expansion of existing settlements beyond their current borders may not be helpful in achieving that goal.”

Which is strange since Trump supported the expansion of settlements throughout his campaign.

Trump failed: His strike in Yemen was a disasester and it killed an 8-year old child

Five days into his presidency, Donald Trump ordered a military strike on an Al-Qaeda base in Yemen. Barack Obama refused to do it because the conditions for the strike were too poor, so the Pentagon asked Trump when they thought the conditions had improved. But according to The New York Times the raid was so poorly planned and executed it ended up being a disaster in which an 8-year old child was killed by US troops. I quote from the NYT article:

As it turned out, almost everything that could go wrong did. And on Wednesday, Mr. Trump flew to Dover Air Force Base in Delaware to be present as the body of the American commando killed in the raid was returned home, the first military death on the new commander in chief’s watch.

But there's more:

DAY 14: HYPOCRISY: Trump complains about UC Berkeley protests but his people want to shut free press

Donald Trump tweeted this today:



The tweet refers to the protests agains Milo Yiannopoulous, a racist, far-right troll (and Breitbart contributor) who got kicked from Twitter for targetting Black actress Leslie Jones with hate speech. He was invited to give a speech at UC Berkeley and the students started peaceful protests against him. However, later during the protests some unidentified poepled acted violently and the university responded by treating the protests as a riot (you know: using tear gas, rubber bullets, that sort of thing). But Yiannopoulous speech was cancelled.

But Trump can't complain about it, since him and his closests advisers have tried to shut up the free press. Here are three examples:

Trump loses AGAIN: His Muslim ban got defeated by Australia

Guess what? Donald Trump's Muslim ban got defeated by Australia!

The Washington Post published an article about Donald Trump hanging up on Australia's Prime Minister during a phone call on Saturday, January 28, 2017. And while most people may be tempted to see the fact that Trump behaved like a jerk in that phone call as the main story, the real story is the reason why Trump hung up.

You see; During the Obama administration, the United States agreed with Australia to take 1,250 refugees who were in an Australian detention center under terrible conditions. But Trump found out about it the day after he ordered his racist Muslim ban.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Trump lied about negotiating Medicare drug prices

In case you missed it yesterday, Donald Trump backpedaled on his campaign promise of negotiating for better drug prices for Medicare.

After a meeting with big pharma executives, Trump said:

"I'll oppose anything that makes it harder for smaller, younger companies to take the risk of bringing their product to a vibrantly competitive market. That includes price-fixing by the biggest dog in the market, Medicare, which is what's happening. But we can increase competition and bidding wars, big time."
