1/ Trump attacked the late John McCain on Twitter for his involvement in sharing the dossier allegedly linking Trump to the Russian government. After the 2016 election, McCain turned the Steele dossier over to the FBI, which Trump called “unfortunately a very dark stain against John McCain.� Trump incorrectly claimed that McCain had “sent the Fake Dossier to the FBI and Media hoping to have it printed BEFORE the Election.� He continued to complain about that longtime Republican lawmaker, who died last year, “had far worse ‘stains’� than the dossier, “including thumbs down on repeal and replace after years of campaigning to repeal and replace!� Trump’s statements about McCain were actually quotes from Ken Starr, who recently appeared on Fox News.

Meghan McCain accused Trump of leading a “pathetic life� by obsessing over her father, who died almost seven months ago. McCain continued: “Your life is spent on your weekends not with your family, not with your friends, but obsessing, obsessing over great men you could never live up to.� (Washington Post / Politico)

Christopher Steele admitted that he used internet searches and unverified information to support some details he had gathered about a web company mentioned in the dossier. (CNN)

2/ Trump accused “the fake news media� of attempting to blame him for the mass shooting at two mosques in New Zealand, calling it “So Ridiculous!� In a manifesto, the alleged gunman called Trump “a symbol of renewed white identity and common purpose,� and referred to immigrants as “invaders within our lands.� Trump told reporters he doesn’t believe white nationalism is a rising threat around the world, suggesting “it’s a small group of people that have very, very serious problems, I guess.� (Politico / Washington Post)

3/ Mick Mulvaney: Trump “is not a white supremacist.� The acting chief of staff went on to say it was “absurd� to draw a connection between Trump’s statements about immigration and the acts of a shooter who embraced both white nationalism and Trump. Last week Trump called undocumented immigrants coming to U.S. an “invasion� as he vetoed a congressional resolution that would block his declaration of a national emergency at the U.S. border with Mexico.
