The best part was where she spent so much time building up to her big announcement that the Beast article went up online and scooped her.

It's a good point that this shows that he has paid taxes and is rich, it distracts from the health law story, and it makes the media look desperate to bring him down....but also doesn't seem to incriminate him in any way.

I wonder who leaked it...

Maybe more from '90s like the leak during the campaign? I have a hard time believing it'll be more than what we already know/assume.
I got the decade wrong, but besides that, it hurts to be so right.

MSNBC's O'Donnell looks like Niles and Frazier got photoshopped.

That was a pretty desperate ratings ploy. Did Maddow even look at the papers first?

Which is worse for the rabid Trump haters;

they either got played by Trump and it was Trump who leaked the return, or

their big story only makes Trump look good and the left desperate.

I love how this fact has turned into "trump leaked it". Like he does his own taxes. He probably hasn't seen his returns in decades. It's just like with W., one second he was too dumb to tie his shoes and the next second he was a Machiavellian genius.

I think when people talk about "Trump did it" the implication is that the Trump camp did it

She tied a bunch of BS conspiracy theory noise to something unrelated, making it harder to believe any evidence that will be uncovered in the future.

One of Canada's national papers had a lead story that a Russian oligarch's plane shared a tarmac with a plane Trump was on. Shared a tarmac is a story now????

wtf? Weren't McCain, Paul, and Lindsay Graham like the only three senior GOP faces who have held on to the Russian thing? Unless I've misunderstood something, isn't this a sudden about-face from McCain?

Spokesman for Saudi Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman wrote:Prince Mohammed Bin Salman discussed with President Trump the issue of banning some citizens from six countries from entering the United States of America and that His Excellency is closely monitoring this matter from the beginning. Saudi Arabia does not believe that this measure is targeting Muslim countries or the religion of Islam. This measure is a sovereign decision aimed at preventing terrorists from entering the United States of America. President Trump expressed his deep respect for the Religion of Islam, considering it one of the divine religions that came with great human principles kidnapped by radical groups.

At the same time, Prince Mohammed Bin Salman emphasized that information from Saudi Arabia confirms indeed the existence of a plot against the United States of America that has been planned in those countries in secret by those groups that took advantage of what they assume a security weakness to conduct operations against the United States of America. His Excellency expressed his understanding and support for this vital and urgent precaution measure to protect the United States of America from expected terrorist operations.

Huh.

Paul is blocking the ratification of a treaty re:Montenegro joining NATO, which is 100% a gift to Russia intentional or otherwise.
