1/11/19: The New York Times reports that F.B.I. agents were so concerned by all the Trump team’s contacts with Russia during the 2016 campaign that they launched an investigation into whether the candidate was operating as an agent of Vladimir Putin. Turning to Fox News to see what story they might be covering, we find Laura Ingraham is furious because Democratic lawmakers have gone to Puerto Rico, where they’re “spending time at the beach” and watching showings of Hamilton instead of working out a deal to build the border wall.
Back in Washington D.C., Trump is trapped in the White House with only a skeleton staff to cater to his whims. None of Ingraham’s viewers realize, of course, that the Hamilton showing is intended to raise money for hurricane relief. Ingraham decides to talk to Sean Hannity, who, for no apparent reason, refers to the Democratic mayor of New York as “Comrade de Blasio.”
Did I miss the story where Comrade de Blasio tried to land a huge deal to build a de Blasio Tower in Moscow?
That would be suspicious, I think.
