Great article by WaPo. "It's not the cost of the trip that was galling but the preparation for it."

Google for the first time has uncovered evidence that Russian operatives exploited the company’s platforms in an attempt to interfere in the 2016 election, according to people familiar with the company's investigation.



The Silicon Valley giant has found that tens of thousands of dollars were spent on ads by Russian agents who aimed to spread disinformation across Google’s many products, which include YouTube, as well as advertising associated with Google search, Gmail, and the company’s DoubleClick ad network, the people said, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss matters that have not been made public.
...

The discovery by Google is also significant because the ads do not appear to be from the same Kremlin-affiliated troll farm that bought ads on Facebook -- a sign that the Russian effort to spread disinformation online may be a much broader problem than Silicon Valley companies have unearthed so far.

Dolphins fans...they're REQUIRED to stand, or stay in the tunnel. Because Trump.

Ummm, this sounds like an accidental admission that he agrees.

Google uncovers Russian-bought ads on YouTube, Gmail and other platforms

Not surprising given we knew they did this with Twitter & facebook

oh lookie! Ivana & Melania are getting into it...

Ivana Trump says she’s the ‘first lady.’ Melania Trump’s office calls the comments ‘attention-seeking and self-serving noise.’

From August, on 45's golf game:

Maybe Trump has a chip on his shoulder because the old-boy golf clubs wouldn’t admit the gauche showman. So he built his own. Now the populist Trump boasts that he’s “the best golfer of all the rich people.”

Or maybe he can’t help himself. Not satisfied being a very good golfer, he shaves scores, boasts of championships un-won and tears up greens with carts — because he can.

The famed 20th-century golf pro and instructor Percy Boomer said that the game reveals much about the man. “If you wish to hide your character, do not play golf,” he said.

But Trump plays, and reveals more than we’d like to see.

Any word yet from the golf course on the deaths of our Special Forces?

[curbsideprophet]

Watching MSNBC...supposedly one of the reasons Trump ruled out Corker as Sec of State is because Corker is too short.

Maybe if they were red baseball hats he'd notice.
