In February 2014, Hunter Biden met with Kenes Rakishev at a Washington, D.C. hotel. Rakishev worked closely with the prime minister of Kazakhstan, Karim Massimov. In April, Rakishev, a Kazakhstani oligarch, wired $142,300 to Rosemont Seneca Bohai. The next day, a payment was made from Rosemont Seneca Bohai for a sportscar for Hunter Biden in the amount of $142,300.

the vast majority of illicit fentanyl — close to 90% — is seized at official border crossings. Immigration authorities say nearly all of that is smuggled by people who are legally authorized to cross the border, and more than half by U.S. citizens like Haley. Virtually none is seized from migrants seeking asylum.

"Our analysis, our intelligence continues to point to most of what's being smuggled at the ports of entry," said Troy Miller, the acting commissioner of Customs and Border Protection, in an interview.

sounds like quid pro quo to me, if "selling access" to a "family brand" is a thing

"The newspaper ads promise that buyers who order apartments in the development by Thursday will get “a conversation and dinner” with Trump Jr. a day later.

President Trump has pledged to avoid any new foreign business deals during his term in office to avoid potential ethical conflicts. While the projects that Trump Jr. is promoting in India were inked before his father was elected, ethics experts have long seen the use of the Trump name to promote even existing business ventures as tricky territory."

“The finding that Ms. Carroll failed to prove that she was ‘raped’ within the meaning of the New York Penal Law does not mean that she failed to prove that Mr. Trump ‘raped’ her as many people commonly understand the word ‘rape,’ ” Kaplan wrote.

He added: “Indeed, as the evidence at trial recounted below makes clear, the jury found that Mr. Trump in fact did exactly that.”

Kaplan said New York’s legal definition of “rape” is “far narrower” than the word is understood in “common modern parlance.”

The former requires forcible, unconsented-to penetration with one’s penis. But he said that the conduct the jury effectively found Trump liable for — forced digital penetration — meets a more common definition of rape. He cited definitions offered by the American Psychological Association and the Justice Department, which in 2012 expanded its definition of rape to include penetration “with any body part or object.”

One of the basic notions Adam Scott Wandt, an attorney and professor at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice, learned over the years is that personal testimony makes for the most inaccurate type of evidence. “People live through experiences and they get it wrong when they repeat it,” he said in a recent interview. “They don’t do it on purpose, it’s just that people’s recollections tend to be pretty poor.”

This is particularly true when it comes to sexual assault, said Wendy Patrick, a career trial attorney who is a member of the organization End Violence Against Women International. People tend to clearly remember being sexually assaulted decades later. But because it’s so traumatizing, they often do not remember the events surrounding the incident. “It’s not usual for people to be unclear when it happened,” she said.

In the Clinton case, FBI Director James Comey decided after an investigation that she had been careless in using a private server but it was not intentional.

Mr Trump is also accused of obstructing the investigation. But he says Mrs Clinton destroyed evidence and points to the deleted emails. At one press conference, he even urged Russia to find them.

In Mr Comey's view there was no cover-up, even though an FBI investigation found many of the deleted emails were work-related.
