Todd, I suspect “jon” is about 60 years old. He may imagine himself to be younger “at heart” and the “jon smith” persona may have been created as a perpetual thirty-something, but Michael P.

Cohen issued his own statement, saying, “President Trump once again vehemently denies any such occurrence as has Ms. Daniels.”
“This is now the second time that you are raising outlandish allegations against my client,” he added, addressing the Journal. “You have attempted to perpetuate this false narrative for over a year; a narrative that has been consistently denied by all parties since at least 2011.”

Trump replied “no” when asked if he had had knowledge about the payment to Daniels. A reporter then asked if he knew why Cohen made the payment.

Israel has pulled back the hammer and handed the trigger to Netanyahu and the Defense minister –
The law reduces the approval required to go to war from the full Cabinet to half of the much smaller security Cabinet under most circumstances. But a provision was added late in the process to give that authority to the prime minister and defense minister in “extreme circumstances.”
“The last-minute addition giving authority under extreme circumstances to the prime minister and defense minister on their own appears to be out of order,” said Yehuda Ben Meir, head of the national security and public opinion project at the Institute for National Security Studies at Tel Aviv University. “It is not appropriate to Israel’s constitutional system of government.”

“Correction: Earlier today NBC News, and this reporter, said that Michael Cohen’s phone lines were wiretapped. 3 Senior U.S. Officials now dispute that, saying the monitoring was limited to a log of calls (pen register) not a wiretap of Cohen’s lines. We will continue to report.”
Too funny. So basically we have a cabal of coastal media conglomerates who make up any old thing as long as it can result in the downfall of Trump, stay-behind operatives left by the Clinton/Obama/Clinton Whitehouse in order to bring down Trump, and a whole boatload of people who believe anything as long as it meets their needs. Mostly this is manufactured outrage about things that aren’t even illegal.
You know, the Green Libertarians could stand to do a bit of slow breathing, take a year off, and spend the time actually doing a bit of research on things that are well documented. If you could just present decent history books in the same gotcha format as The Daily Kos, Drudge Report, or The Young Turks (this last has an absolutely hilarious name given the background of the phrase), maybe a bit of knowledge might get shoveled in.
