If not for the Russian press, we would not have known this? [View all]

But, this morning, Donald Trump had a phone call for 90 minutes with Vladimir Putin.

For ninety minutes.

Obviously that was more than enough time to say hello and how is your family? What did they discuss?

Coincidentally, today the Congress was able to get the Administration to release $400 million dollars to Ukraine.

But, when do people start asking more questions about this relationship between Trump and Putin?

"Russia, Russia, Russia" is hardly the answer the American people need.

It is time to face some harsh realities.
