Paul Manafort, the chairman of Donald Trump's presidential campaign who has been linked to a pro-Russia lobbying scandal, has resigned.
[...] Manafort has drawn fire for millions of dollars in undisclosed payments he allegedly received for lobbying efforts on behalf of a pro-Russian Ukrainian political party.
[...] The documents allegedly show funds allocated to Manafort totalling more than $12.7m between November 2007 and October 2012. But the agency emphasised that it had not determined whether Manafort had actually received that money.

The main story is old news. Your links should have been the basis for a more up-to-date background story. However, even better would be an analysis of how many of Trump's prior idiocies probably originated over there. I don't want to get overconfident, but Breitbart is a monstrosity and this could be the start of an amazing implosion.
I would be distinctly amused if the so-called Republicans only one Utah, and that was the other Republican, not the Donald. Sorry, I can't remember his name, but he's a nice Mormon boy. Sort of. Compared to Trump, anyone else tends to come off looking nice, eh?

More like the start of a Trump-Breitbart News Network with the now outfoxed Roger Ailes managing the whole thing.

I thought that was just something someone said here, then I started noticing it everywhere.

You've just been Baader-Meinhoffed!
But seriously, like insecure conservatives seem to love doing, they are going to emulate every caricature they accuse "the left" of being and then turn it up to 11. And it will earn money hand over fist because all those terrible sins of corruption and deceit that they sanctimoniously accuse "the lamestream media" of are actually wish-list for what they want to see in a 'news' service catering to their brand of crazy.
