President Donald Trump appeared to acknowledge Friday in an interview that his tweet hinting of taped conversations with James Comey was intended to influence the fired FBI director's testimony before Congress, and he emphasized that he committed "no obstruction" of the inquiries into whether his campaign colluded with Russia. The interview, with Fox & Friends , was shown one day after the president tweeted what most people in Washington had already come to believe: that he had not made recordings of his conversations with Comey.
Actor Johnny Depp on Thursday became the latest US celebrity to invite controversy by making a thinly veiled allusion to the killing of President Donald Trump, asking the crowd at the Glastonbury arts festival in England, "When was the last time an actor assassinated a president?"

"It is the hardest thing about my entire time in government to defend," the former senior Obama administration official told the Post.
Now, the president wants us to know the real reason he use tapes to threaten the former FBI director - who claims he was fired after refusing to drop the Michael Flynn investigation . It was to keep Comey from changing his story! In an interview with Fox News , Trump said it "wasn't very stupid" to paint himself as the moral authority by threatening the FBI head with recordings he didn't actually make.
President Donald Trump suggested he was just trying to keep fired FBI Director James Comey honest with his cryptic tweet implying there might be recordings of their private conversations. Trump ended a month-long guessing game Thursday by tweeting that he never made and doesn't have recordings of his private conversations with Comey.
The Washington Post has an important story today about how the Obama administration handled the intelligence they were receiving on Russian attempts to influence the 2016 election. This has been a source of concern for many over the last few months and, with the publication of this story, people like Charles Pierce have let loose their frustrations and accused Obama of "choking."
Responding to Barack Obama, who appealed to his Facebook followers with the claim that the bill unveiled by Senate Republicans on Thursday is "not a health care bill," White House press secretary Sean Spicer reminded the former president on Friday that Obama's signature legislation is "dead."

Let's look on the bright side: The spectacle of ireful Donald Trump supporters disrupting Shakespeare in the Park's production of "Julius Caesar" and the subsequent tweetstorm of abuse directed at any company with Shakespeare in its name prove that plays retain the power to shock and enrage. Who said the theater is all anodyne, feel-good musicals? I didn't see the production that turned Julius Caesar into a Donald Trump look-alike, so I can't comment on the accuracy of the impersonation or the violence against the president that some people believe it meant to incite.
President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw the United States from the Paris climate accord has induced a fateful pessimism about what can be expected of the country on this critical issue.

Democrats formed a united front against the controversial measure, blasting it as a "war on Medicaid," the health care program for lower income Americans, and calling it worse than one that passed the House of Representatives in May.
