5News reports:

President Donald Trump appears to have changed his story about a 2016 meeting at Trump Tower that is pivotal to the special counsel's investigation, tweeting that his son met with a Kremlin-connected lawyer to collect information about his political opponent.

[...] That is a far different explanation than Trump gave 13 months ago, when a statement dictated by the president but released under the name of Donald Trump Jr., read: "We primarily discussed a program about the adoption of Russian children that was active and popular with American families years ago."

  So false it reeks. trump's put a veener of gold lame over the most rotten, diseased administration in living memory. Just read today's investigative report about how he's put three multi-millionares buddies who pay him hundreds of thousands to hang at tsar-a-lago and have never served in charge of the VA.
