Numerous Key Mueller-to-Trump Questions and Answers Released
With Wikileaks at the forefront of Mueller’s mind, these answers could be highly significant.
In the ongoing saga of the Russian “witch hunt”, as described by the President, we now know that Donald Trump has answered at least a few key questions held by the Special Counsel.
We know this because two of these pieces of dialogue have been relayed to CNN today by unnamed sources.
President Donald Trump told special counsel Robert Mueller in writing that Roger Stone did not tell him about WikiLeaks, nor was he told about the 2016 Trump Tower meeting between his son, campaign officials and a Russian lawyer promising dirt on Hillary Clinton, according to two sources familiar with the matter.
One source described the President’s answers without providing any direct quotes and said the President made clear he was answering to the best of his recollection.
This is the first insight into how the President responded to the Mueller team’s written questions — a key unknown as Mueller aims to wrap up his investigation and prepare his final report.
These two points — WikiLeaks and the Trump Tower meeting — are critical to Mueller’s central mission: investigating whether the Trump campaign colluded with Russians during the 2016 campaign.
The release comes as many believe Robert Mueller is wrapping up his investigation into purported Russian collusion between the Trump 2016 campaign the the Russian government. His latest focus seems to be the timing of Trump’s knowledge of a late-campaign Wikileaks release of emails hacked and stolen from within the Hillary Clinton organization.
The material contained within these emails would invariably alter the outcome of the election, after it was exposed that Hillary Clinton had financially conquered the DNC, and then used that leverage to rig the primaries against Bernie Sanders.

(CNSNews.com) – President Trump indicated Tuesday he may call off a scheduled meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Buenos Aires, saying he did not like the “aggression” Russia displayed during a naval clash with Ukraine in the Black Sea early this week.
Trump also took the opportunity to prod NATO allies, notably Germany, to spend more on defense, underlining his argument that the alliance’s European members should be doing more as a bulwark against Russian misbehavior.
Speaking at the White House briefing room, however, National Security Advisor John Bolton gave no indication the meeting with Putin would not take place in Argentina.
During an earlier interview with the Washington Post, Trump did not directly answer when asked whether Putin was within his rights to challenge three small Ukrainian naval vessels trying to transit the Kerch Strait linking the Black and Azov seas.
Instead, he said he was awaiting a full report which would be “very determinative.”
“Maybe I won’t even have the meeting [with Putin],” he said. “We’re going to see.”
Asked whether Russia’s aggression should be of concern, Trump said, “I don’t like that aggression. I don't want that aggression at all. Absolutely.”
“And by the way,” he continued, “Europe shouldn’t like that aggression. And Germany shouldn’t like that aggression. You know they’re paying one percent, and they’re supposed to be paying much more than one percent.”
Germany and many NATO members, he added, “should be spending much more money.”
Trump was alluding to NATO allies’ commitment to devote at least two percent of their national GDP to defense spending, by 2024. Only five of the 29 have reached that mark and Germany, Europe’s biggest economy, is currently on just 1.24 percent, according to figures released at a NATO summit in Brussels in July.
At that summit Trump – whose critics at home accuse of being too soft on Putin – questioned some allies’ commitment to keeping Russia in check, based on their defense spending. He also criticized Germany for buying oil and gas from Russia -- the country that NATO was formed to protect against.
The last time Trump and Putin met, in Helsinki in July, controversy erupted after Trump was viewed as having equivocated when asked if he believed Putin or U.S. intelligence agencies on the issue of Russian meddling in the 2016 election. Critics accused him of siding with Putin over the U.S. intelligence community.
Since then, the U.S. and Russia have clashed over a number of issues, including Russia’s alleged undermining of U.N. sanctions against North Korea, its response to chemical weapons use in Syria, its decision to provide the Assad regime with sophisticated S300 surface-to-air missiles, and Trump’s plan to withdraw from the Cold War-era Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty.
Sunday’s incident in the Black Sea brought harsh new criticism from Ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley, who said of Russia’s conduct, “this is no way for a law-abiding, civilized nation to act.”
Haley made clear that her remarks had the support of Trump and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo – a point repeated on Tuesday by Bolton, who told reporters Haley was speaking for the United States, “and we’re going to stand on that statement.”
Bolton said the planned Trump-Putin meeting in Buenos Aires would cover security issues, arms control and regional issues including the Middle East.
The Kerch Strait lies between Russian territory and Crimea – Ukrainian territory occupied by Russia since 2014 – and is the only route Ukrainian vessels can take when moving between ports in the country’s south-west to those in the south-east.
To stop the Ukrainian vessels from transiting the strait, the Russian navy opened fire, rammed one of the Ukrainian ships, and then seized all three and their crew.
Pompeo called Russia’s seizure of Ukrainian ships a “dangerous escalation and a violation of international law.”
Moscow accuses Ukraine of a deliberate provocation.
Notorious Anti-Trumper Hired by State Department

According to The Daily Wire:
The U.S. State Department has hired former anti-Trump Wall Street Journal editorial board member Mary Kissel to be Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s new senior adviser for policy and strategic messaging.
The recent hire has alarmed former administration officials, including one who told Politico that "Trump would lose his mind if he knew about this."
Another former administration official said that hiring Kissel was "a recipe for disaster" because it's "a welcome sign to all never-Trumpers and establishment Republicans that they have a home in this administration."
"It’s a political mutiny," a source close to the First Family told The Daily Wire. "John Kelly and his cronies go out of their way to make sure that Trump people don’t get hired while the Kissels of the world are handed important jobs. The president has lost control of this ship."
The State Department has issued a statement that Kissel strongly supports many of the president's policies and that she is proud to serve Secretary Pompeo of President Trump.
Her anti-Trump stance did soften when Trump won the election. Here are some of her tweets expressing her anti-Trump stance:
Assad and Putin are murderous dictators who don't share American interests. Trump is delusional on foreign policy. Frightening ignorance.

True to form, @realDonaldTrump ruins decent Mexico trip with Fortress America Phoenix speech. Populist pander, cites misleading data. Sad!

Trump's speech 75 minutes because he has no coherent thoughts. A rambling mess of personal vanity, fearmongering, isolationism.
— Mary Kissel (@marykissel) July 22, 2016
Trump has also previously called out Kissel for her anti-Trump stance:
"@SirHatchporch: Mary Kissel is an SNL character, right? She's not a real person, right? #MorningJoe" She is a major loser - no clue!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 4, 2016
Apparently, there has been a change in heart that has allowed Kissel to join the administration. But judging by past views this is a questionable hire.

White liberals 'patronize' minorities: study
Valerie Richardson - The Washington Times
White liberals present themselves as less competent when addressing minorities, while conservatives use the same vocabulary no matter what the race of their audience, according to a newly released study.
Yale and Princeton researchers found that both white Democratic presidential candidates and self-identified liberals played down their competence when speaking to minorities, using fewer words that conveyed accomplishment and more words that expressed warmth.
On the other hand, there were no significant differences in how white conservatives, including Republican presidential candidates, spoke to white versus minority audiences.
“White liberals self-present less competence to minorities than to other Whites—that is, they patronize minorities stereotyped as lower status and less competent,” according to the study’s abstract.
Cydney Dupree, Yale School of Management assistant professor of organizational behavior, said she was surprised by the findings of the study, which sought to discover how “well-intentioned whites” interact with minorities.
Obama takes credit for U.S. oil-and-gas boom: 'That was me, people'
Industry argues that upswing occurred in spite of Obama's policies
Obama takes credit for U.S. oil-and-gas boom: 'That was me, people'
Industry argues that upswing occurred in spite of Obama's policies
By Valerie Richardson - The Washington Times
President Barack Obama took credit once again Tuesday for the U.S. oil-and-gas boom, even though critics have argued that the upswing in oil and natural gas production occurred in spite of his policies.
Mr. Obama told the audience at a gala for Rice University’s Baker Institute that he was “extraordinarily proud of the Paris accords” before saying “I know we’re in oil country and we need American energy.”
“You wouldn’t always know it ,but it went up every year I was president,” he said to applause. “That whole, suddenly America’s like the biggest oil producer and the biggest gas — that was me, people.”
Obama: "Suddenly America is the largest oil producer, that was me people ... say thank you."

6:46 AM - Nov 28, 2018
This wasn’t the first time Mr. Obama has claimed credit for the boom, which saw oil production grow by 88 percent during his two terms. He did so often during his presidency, inevitably meeting with rebuttals from the oil-and-gas industry.
The American Petroleum Institute said in 2013 that “we’re producing more oil and natural gas despite current federal policy, not as a result of it,” noting that production on federal lands plummeted during his tenure while increasing on private lands.
Mr. Obama also promoted policies designed to curb fossil-fuel usage and production, including the Clean Power Plan; the federal methane rule; federal restrictions on hydraulic fracturing; the rejection of the Keystone XL pipeline, and the Paris climate accord.
At Rice, the tuxedo-clad former president also gave himself a pat on the back for the stock market.
“It’s a little like, sometimes you go to Wall Street, and folks will be grumbling about anti-business, and I say, ‘Have you checked where your stocks were when I came into office and where they are now? What are you complaining about?’” he said.
He spoke along with former Bush 41 Secretary of State James Baker, the center’s namesake, at a fundraiser that raised more than $5 million for the institute, according to ABC13 in Houston.
President Trump has sought to neutralize the Obama administration’s energy agenda by moving to pull out of the Paris agreement, repeal the fracking restrictions, and roll back the methane rule.
Leftists’ Fake-Hate Nooses Help Deliver MS Senate Seat to GOP Last Night

Leftists’ Fake-Hate Nooses Help Deliver MS Senate Seat to GOP Last Night
BY MALACHI BAILEY
Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith defeated her Democratic opponent, Mike Espy, in Tuesday night’s Senate runoff election in Mississippi despite questionable headlines coming from the establishment media relating to a left-wing publicity stunt involving nooses.
With 99 percent of precincts reporting, Hyde-Smith led her Democratic opponent 53.9 percent to 46.1 percent, according to election results reported by Politico.
Espy, a former congressman and agriculture secretary in the Clinton administration, conceded the race both in a phone call to Hyde-Smith and in a speech to supporters, according to Reuters. “She has my prayers as she goes to Washington to unite a very divided Mississippi,” he said.
Hyde-Smith’s victory put the total number of Republicans in the Senate at 53, compared to 47 Democrats or independents who caucus with Democrats.
Appointed to the Senate after former Sen. Thad Cochran retired in April, Hyde-Smith managed to win the seat outright just a day after leftists set up nooses near the Mississippi Capitol.
The establishment media’s original reporting of the nooses made it seem like a hate crime.
“Nooses and signs, some referring to the upcoming Senate runoff election, have been found on the grounds of the Mississippi State Capitol,” CNN tweeted. “A state spokesman says one of the signs read: ‘We are hanging nooses to remind people that times have not changed.'”

The tweet neglected to mention that the signs were pro-Democrat and the nooses were meant to paint Hyde-Smith as racist for a joking comment she made earlier this month about attending a public hanging.
While CNN’s article briefly mentioned the pro-Democrat signs, the wording of the tweet could easily lead a reader to believe they had been put up by racists trying to intimidate black voters.
NBC News sent out an even more deceptive tweet.
“Two nooses were found hanging outside the Mississippi State Capitol, along with signs that referenced the racially charged Senate runoff race on Tuesday.”

Nooses found at hanging at Mississippi Capitol ahead of runoff between Hyde-Smith and Espy
“Thousands of Mississippians will vote for a senator. We need someone who respects lives of lynch victims,” one sign read.
Fortunately, some keen Twitter users pointed out the media’s mishandling of the coverage.
Please explain how it occurred that you described these signs which make clear it was a Democratic stunt only as "hate signs" and omitted their content completely in your initial, highly deceptive, reporting.

Clearly, the fake hate didn’t work this time.
And given the slanted coverage the signs received — and Hyde-Smith’s comfortable margin of victory — it’s likely that the signs actually helped her spur Hyde-Smith supporters to turn out by reminding voters just how ruthless and deceptive the liberal-media alliance has become in trying to defeat Republicans and damage President Donald Trump’s legislative support.
Mississippi’s election just delivered another Senate seat to the GOP.
Hopefully, it’s a sign that voters are beginning to see through the media’s deception.Helen and Moe Lauzier
