The latest twist in the story of the massage parlor owner/Trump donor who sold access to Trump: Cindy Yang has ties to groups directly connected to the Chinese government and the Communist Party. From @dfriedman33, @DanielSchulman and me.

Because I heard over two years ago that Pam Bondi had been covering this(massage parlor connected to sex trafficking) up because it would implicate numerous GOP donors and politicians, and that it was now out of her hands because the Feds were involved. Looks like what I heard was probably right.

This adds even more suspicion to the donation Trump made to Bondi's campaign. We assumed it was just to get her to not sign on to the "Trump U" lawsuit, but maybe it involved this as well!?!?

Hmmmmmmmmmm Morning Joe attacks trump Monday through Friday. Why Joe Scum? Don't folks think that people can change? Don't folks realize that these are not normal times? Don't folks realize that we need all the help we can get to regain our democracy? I don't get folks who seem to ignore why we need help and attack those who are against trump. Purity is not who we are.
