quote:

In one exchange, daughter Jessica Manafort writes “Im not a trump supporter but i am still proud of dad tho. He is the best at what he does.” Her sister Andrea Manafort responded by referring to their father’s relationship with Trump as “The most dangerous friendship in America,” while in another exchange she called them “a perfect pair” of “power-hungry egomaniacs,” and asserted “the only reason my dad is doing this campaign is for sport. He likes the challenge. It's like an egomaniac's chess game. There's no money motivation.”

In one March 2015 exchange that appears to be between the two sisters, Andrea Manafort seems to suggest that their father bore some responsibility for the deaths of protesters at the hands of police loyal to Yanukovych during a monthslong uprising that started in late 2013.

“Don't fool yourself,” Andrea Manafort wrote. “That money we have is blood money.”

In another hacked exchange a few months later with someone else, Andrea Manafort wrote that her father’s “work and payment in Ukraine is legally questionable.”

...

The year before, Andrea Manafort indicated in a text to an associate that her father was reluctant to communicate sensitive information from his mobile devices because “Russians literally hack his phones.”

This article

quote:

Paul Manafort’s family expressed misgivings about the political consultant’s work for both Russia-aligned Ukrainian strongman Viktor Yanukovych and Donald Trump, according to text messages allegedly hacked from one of his daughters' phones.

The texts, posted on a darknet website run by a hacktivist collective, appear to show Manafort’s family fretting about the ethics, safety and consequences of his work for Yanukovych. And they reveal that Manafort’s two daughters regarded their father’s emergence as a key player on Trump’s presidential campaign with a mixture of pride and embarrassment.

In one exchange, daughter Jessica Manafort writes “Im not a trump supporter but i am still proud of dad tho. He is the best at what he does.” Her sister Andrea Manafort responded by referring to their father’s relationship with Trump as “The most dangerous friendship in America,” while in another exchange she called them “a perfect pair” of “power-hungry egomaniacs,” and asserted “the only reason my dad is doing this campaign is for sport.

Leshchenko suggested that the note might have been sent to Andrea Manafort by Russian-linked forces to divert attention away from the ongoing investigations into Russian meddling in the presidential election.

“They need to prove that not only Russia influenced the U.S. elections — that it was Ukraine as well,” he said. “It muddies the picture, makes it less sharp.”

quote:

In a text exchange in early April, Jessica Manafort tells her sister that her father, who maintained an apartment in Trump Tower, where the campaign is located, seemed to be thriving on the campaign.

“Dad and Trump are literally living in the same building and mom says they go up and down all day long hanging and plotting together,” Jessica Manafort wrote. “Gross,” Andrea Manafort responded, prompting Jessica Manafort to come to their father’s defense.

Phenomenon check: Is there anyone who you know, who has heard and is even vaguely aware of Alex Jones, who IS NOT capable of doing a decently funny impression of him? I just ran down a few people in our office and like, everyone can do it. I think it might be because it's an easy offshoot of a Hulk Hogan impression.

This was something they wanted to do,” he said. “They came to me, they explained what they wanted to do ― the generals ― who are very respected, my generals are the most respected that we’ve had in many decades, I believe.

It's just funny. She looks super out of place at a photo op. Like right in the middle of the picture. Nothing she is doing is offensive or worthy of scorn.

it's a funny picuter

the deeper story is black college leaders being shuffled in for a photo op while their concerns are ignored

the sadder story is Devos using it as a way to push vouchers

the funny story is that this was meant to show Trump as a unifier on the eve of his speech tonight, and it instead turned into an imbruglio for Conway, putting another brick in the wall of her attention grabbing WH ineffective advocacy

which then loops again to it being a loving funny picture

It's a combination of:
a) It being a really, really weird photograph.
b) It being an eminently photoshoppable photograph.
c) A response to the uproar at Obama...I mean, generally being in the oval office and strutting around like he's president or something. Sitting, putting his feet on the desk, redecorating. I mean, I guess it compounds the stupidity of caring about any of that stuff, but it's cathartic to be outraged.
d) There have been tweets.

I wouldn't really call it an uproar - it's more of a very widespread heckle.

Is anyone else disturbed by Trump's continued use of the possessive when talking about the generals? It feels very...military junta-y.
