Outside the Beltway

Donald Trump could have more to worry about regarding the investigation of Michael Cohen than he does regarding the Mueller investigation.

Hang on, the ride on the Trump Train is about to get a lot bumpier.

Out of the blue, President Trump plans to pardon Dick Cheney’s former Chief of Staff, but the move seems to have more to do with James Comey than it does Scooter Libby.

Republicans on Capitol Hill worried about all the leaking coming from the Trump White House would be wise to actually do the oversight the Constitution compels them to do.

A new report confirms that the White House has indeed required staffers to sign non-disclosure agreements that are clearly not enforceable.

A report in The Washington Post says that White House Staff under President Trump have been required to sign non-disclosure agreements.

The statute of limitations has expired. But he should never have been asked the question to begin with.

The White House chief of staff has downgraded the President’s son-in-law’s access to classified information. We’ll see how long that lasts.

The President’s fecklessness here is incredible. Either take these people out of sensitive posts or take the responsibility for granting them waivers. 

Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee have released a memo that completely eviscerates the memo prepared by Committee Chairman Devin Nunes.

Donald Trump’s dereliction of duty in response to clear evidence of Russian interference in the 2016 election is a staggering and flagrant dereliction of the duties he agreed to take on when he took the Oath Of Office more than a year ago.

More security clearance problems for the White House.

Whether it’s the abuse angle or the more serious issue of security clearances, the White House still can’t get the story straight on the Rob Porter case.

More than a year into the Trump Presidency, dozens of White House personnel lack proper security clearances.

The two most important allegations in the Nunes memo appear to be complete lies.

The 2008 Republican nominee for president condemned his party and its president for the release of a controversial memo attacking the FBI.

Republicans have released the memo prepared by Congressman Devin Nunes that purports to call into question the basis for the Russia investigation. In the end, though, it amounts to much ado about nothing.

What seems like a nothingburger story from CNN.

Chelsea Manning is running for Senate, but she may be violating military regulations by doing so.

John Kelly continues to throw away the good name he earned in decades of service as a Marine to serve the agenda of President Trump.

As I’ve said before, the Republican Party in the Trump Era has become the party of Trumpaloons, sycophants, sellouts, and cowards.

For a guy who considers the Russia investigation “Fake News,” President Trump sure is doing a lot to try to stop it.

Two Federal Judges have issued orders blocking the latest version of President Trump’s Muslim Travel Ban.

While there are real differences between what’s being reported about White House officials such as Jared Kushner and what Hillary Clinton did, the charge of hypocrisy is well-founded.

The Harvard Kennedy School pulled its Visiting Fellowship from the controversial figure after predictable outcry.

While the rest of us have been distracted by a hurricane in Texas, Robert Mueller’s investigation continues moving forward.

President Trump’s attempts to interfere in the administration of justice go beyond the Russia investigation.

Democrats and “Never Trump”ers shouldn’t count their chickens before they’re hatched.

Trump and his underlings continue to lie, even about the most trivial of matters.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller has expanded his investigation to include the allegation that President Trump may have attempted to obstruct justice

Based on his just released opening testimony, tomorrow’s testimony by Former F.B.I. Director James Comey is likely to be explosive.

A seemingly ‘safe choice’ for F.B. I. Director.

Donald Trump seems to have an odd habit of sharing highly classified information with questionable people.

Yet another report that the President of the United States sought to undermine an ongoing F.B.I. investigation.

The evidence that President Trump fired James Comey in an effort to quash the Russia investigation continues to mount.

A Constitutional coup d’etat is not the way to solve the Donald Trump problem.

Even with the revelations of the last three weeks, impeaching the President is still largely a fantasy.

In Fox News Channel’s America, Donald Trump can do no wrong and Hillary Clinton is still a threat.

Another day, another allegation against the President. This time, though, it’s very, very serious.

President Trump’s decision to share highly classified information with the Russians is yet another demonstration of his dangerous hubris and incompetence.

Was Jim Comey fired in an effort to impede the Russia investigation? Trump’s own words are making it sound more and more likely.

Less than a week after revealing that the F.B.I. was investigating the Trump campaign regarding ties with Russia, F.B.I. Director James Comey has been fired by President Trump.

F.B.I. Director James Comey testified yesterday on the reasons he chose to publicly speak out just days before the 2016 election about the reopened Clinton email investigation.

Republicans in Congress are slavishly seeking to divert attention from wrongdoing by Donald Trump, or Russia.
