SAN DIEGO — Smuggling gangs in Mexico have repeatedly sawed through new sections of President Trump’s border wall in recent months by using commercially available power tools, opening gaps large enough for people and drug loads to pass through, according to U.S. agents and officials with knowledge of the damage.
Trump berated aides in May who pushed for better Ukraine ties. He sought to block 2017 aid, complaining of country & saying it would offend Russia. He has questioned whether it’s a real country. W/@GregJaffe on loathing at heart of impeachment probe: https://t.co/YaMwGaSidY
This FOIA trove reinforces my sense that Bob Mueller might have been too weakened, perhaps by age-related illness, to resist Rosenstein’s self-interested constraints on the inquiry. Remember who chose Mueller to be the Special Counsel. https://t.co/zLR0DO0yvH
