Lol, Trump is trying to place the blame on Obama
First, you said it was a hoax, now it's not a hoax and Obama's fault.
**Breaking news...Mueller**
Additional criminal conduct by Manafort...bank fraud
That's' tonight
When Trump was walking across the WhiteHouse lawn
being questioned by all those reporters concerning the Russian indictments I bet he was thinking about firing Sessions
Next Mueller indictments...
Campaign member 1
Campaign member 2
Campaign member 3
Co-Conspirator 1
On MSNBC...so it is not over
All that negative stuff and demonizing the FBI just died
Will Trump go off script about the shooting in Florida
to talk about the Russian indictments?
I'm convinced....
Robert Mueller should be President. He is to the best of his "ability; preserving, protecting and defending the Constitution of the United States." Something that Trump took the oath of office for and never did or will do.
White Supremacist Group Says Florida Shooting Suspect Attended Their Trainings
The leader of the Republic of Florida, a white nationalist militia, told reporters the suspect participated in the group’s drills.By Lydia O’Connor /02/15/2018 01:18 pm ET
The Republic of Florida, a white nationalist militia, confirmed Thursday that the man charged in Wednesday’s school shooting in Parkland, Florida, was involved in some of its activities.
Jordan Jereb, the group’s leader, told The Associated Press that shooting suspect Nikolas Cruz had participated in the group’s paramilitary drills in Tallahassee.
Jereb also told the Anti-Defamation League that Cruz had carpooled to the training exercises with other members of the group. He said Cruz had been “brought up” by a member of ROF, though it was not clear what this meant.
Cruz, 19, has been charged with 17 counts of premeditated murder in Wednesday’s shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.
Jereb told the AP that Cruz had “trouble with a girl” and thinks that may have been linked to him carrying out the attack on Valentine’s Day.
The ROF, which says it seeks to establish a “white ethnostate” in Florida, did not order Cruz to carry out the shooting, Jereb told the ADL. However, attacks carried out by groups like the Republic of Florida are on the rise: Murders by white supremacists more than doubled in 2017 compared to the year before, according to an ADL report released last week.
