Blog Stage 2: The Trump Russia Saga Continues

In the New York Times article published on July 11th, 2017, Russian Dirt On Clinton? 'I Love It,' Donald Trump Jr. Said, Jo Becker, Adam Goldman, and Matt Apuzzo create a clear timeline of Trump Jr.'s exchange with a Russian lawyer who potentially had information that could damage Hillary Clinton's presidential run. In the emails, Trump Jr. seeks to meet with the lawyer, replying to the offer, "I love it especially later in the summer." Although Trump Jr. has publicly described the exchange as trivial, he revealed to Sean Hannity that he "probably would have done things a little differently."

This article is worth reading because it contains nothing but the facts. It lays out what the White House and Donald Trump Jr. himself have confirmed about the exchange, while leaving room for speculation up to the reader. While it hasn't been confirmed that the Trump campaign colluded with Russian officials prior to the 2016 election, recent evidence has raised plenty of questions about the White House's ties to Russia that are worth investigating.
