Source: NBC News
Omarosa Manigault Newman, the former reality TV star who became a top White House aide to President Donald Trump, on Thursday released exclusively to MSNBC a secret tape of campaign official Lara Trump offering her a $15,000-a-month job after her she was fired from the administration.
The tape which, according to Manigault Newman was made on December 16, 2017, just days after she left her White House job appears to corroborate claims she made in her new book about receiving an offer from the president's re-election campaign. Manigault Newman wrote in her book that the job offer came with the condition of signing a non-disclosure agreement; she said she did not accept it.
On the new tape, Lara Trump says, "It sounds a little like, obviously, that there are some things you've got in the back pocket to pull out. Clearly, if you come on board the campaign, like, we can't have, we got to," she continues, before Manigault Newman interjects, "Oh, God no."
"Everything, everybody, positive, right?" Trump continues.

This was an obvious hush money offer.

I think CNN may show Collins arriving for his arraignment within the hour.

Bam. Mueller is closing in on Stone!
Local (Sidney, Ohio) farmer calls it like he sees it.
Let me tell you a riddle. I slept with a billionaire because he said he loved me. I expected to make love, but in the morning I realized I was getting screwed. When I went to tell the world, I was offered cash to keep my mouth shut. Who am I? No, Im not a model or someone named Stormy. Im the American farmer...
We keep hearing about the Art of the Deal. Im waiting for the Art portion. Using a club to bludgeon our trading partners and allies is not negotiating. Its nothing more than a playground bully stomping around to see who will flinch...
The president calls em like he sees them, and so do I. I wont be silent any longer.

AP FACT CHECK: Trump Says US Steel Opening Mills. Not So.
WASHINGTON President Donald Trump is crediting his tariffs with persuading U.S. Steel to open a half dozen new plants. That's not so.
TRUMP at a Pennsylvania rally Thursday night: "U.S. Steel is opening up seven plants." On Tuesday, he told supporters in Florida: "U.S. Steel just announced that they're building six new steel mills."
THE FACTS: The Pittsburgh-based company has made no such announcement. U.S. Steel spokeswoman Meghan Cox declined to comment on Trump's claim but said any "operational changes" such as the opening of new mills would be "publicly announced" and "made available on our website" if it occurred.

Another day, more lies.
That's the way you do it. Just got a call from a union man
asking me to leave a message for my Democratic senator (in a red state) to vote against Kavanaugh. I said I'd give his office a call and he said no, I'll transfer you to his office right now. I held for about 3 seconds and one of his secretaries answered and I told her to give him my "no way" message.
Easy as pie.
