Trump Under Investigation by Special Counsel Mueller for Obstruction of Justice
Trump Under Investigation by Special Counsel Mueller for Obstruction of Justice
Special Counsel Robert Mueller is investigating Donald Trump for possible obstruction of justice in the Russia probe, according to the Washington Post:
The move by special counsel Robert S. Mueller III to investigate Trump’s conduct marks a major turning point in the nearly year-old FBI investigation, which until recently focused on Russian meddling during the presidential campaign and on whether there was any coordination between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin. Investigators have also been looking for any evidence of possible financial crimes among Trump associates, officials said.
Trump had received private assurances from then-FBI Director James B. Comey starting in January that he was not personally under investigation. Officials say that changed shortly after Comey’s firing.

NEW MUSIC: Lil Yachty, London Grammar, Sia
NEW MUSIC: Lil Yachty, London Grammar, Sia
This week in New Music: Millennial rap from Lil Yachty (above), London Grammar are drowned out on their glacial second album, and Sia‘s #EndHIV song hits emotional highs with a video starring Zoe Saldana.
Lil Yachty – Teenage Emotions
19-year-old Atlanta rapper Lil Yachty has been on the receiving end of some serious flak from purists because of his entirely irreverent take on hip hop.
It’s understandable when you hear tracks like the 80s-referencing “Bring It Back” – sax solo and all – which you could genuinely imagine on the soundtrack for Top Gun 2.
“Bring It Back” isn’t actually a rap though and Teenage Emotions is as genre-busting as the brilliant Blood Orange.
Despite his refreshing millennial take, some listeners might be put off by Lil Yachty’s misogyny. A teetotaler, there are scant references to drink and drugs, there are boys kissing on the album cover, but bitches abound.
London Grammar – Truth Is A Beautiful Thing
London Grammar were one of the next-big-things when they appeared unannounced with their 2013 debut album If You Wait.
Four years on and apparently exhausted from constant touring and bouts of stage fright, the trio return with the somewhat overcooked Truth Is A Beautiful Thing.
For the most part, the album can be described as glacial pop – think Sigur Ros meets Lorde. That approach in and of itself is not a bad thing but it runs out of steam pretty quickly. That and the identity crisis – “Big Picture” = 90s U2 – will leave many listeners cold which is a terrible shame as there are some genuinely excellent songs to be had. Strip this back to ten essential songs and release a non-deluxe edition in it’s place.
Sia – “Free Me”
The proceeds from Sia’s “Free Me” will go to benefit the #EndHiv campaign.
So Thrilled by the world’s reaction to our collaboration with these amazing women! #endhiv #FreeMe t.co/t5w14hRs1w

A ballad with the levels of emotion you would expect from Sia, the song’s context is beautifully highlighted with a video starring Zoe Saldana and Julianne Moore.

BERNIE SANDERS. “Sickened” by the congressional shooting: “I have just been informed that the alleged shooter at the Republican baseball practice is someone who apparently volunteered on my presidential campaign. I am sickened by this despicable act. Let me be as clear as I can be: Violence of any kind is unacceptable in our society and I condemn this action in the strongest possible terms.”
ROBERT MUELLER. Trump has no intention of firing him, according to White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders: “While the president has the right to, he has no intention to do so.”
MANCHESTER. Ariana Grande to get honorary citizenship: “The council is proposing a new system to recognise outstanding contributions to the city. The US singer is in line to be the first recipient for organising the One Love Manchester concert in aid of victims of the bomb attack at her gig, in which 22 people died.”
BROAD CITY. The show will BLEEP Trump’s name all season.
LONDON. Mass fatalities in residential apartment fire. At least 12 dead. “More than 250 firefighters worked through the night to rescue residents from their flats after the blaze broke out, shortly before 1am on Wednesday. The fire rapidly engulfed the full height of the block, and was still burning strongly more than six hours later, with a thick pall of dark smoke visible across the capital.”
THE WISHING SPELL. Chris Colfer to write and direct film adaptation of best-selling fantasy series: “Wishing Spell follows twins Alex and Conner Bailey who, after the loss of their father, are transported into a magic book in which the classic fairy tales have come to life. Thrust into a world where they come face-to-face with the characters they’ve only read about in stories, the kids must fight dark forces in order to return home.”
OPRAH WINFREY. Not running for president.
AMERICAN CRIME STORY. The Assassination of Gianni Versace is officially next in the franchise: “This means that it will bump Katrina, which had been previously announced as the follow-up to last year’s phenomenon The People v. O.J. Simpson.”
WILL & GRACE. Max Mutchnick shares script page.

SUPERHERO WORKOUT. Sebastian Stan prepares to take on Thanos.
MS CHAMPIONS. Artificial intelligence conquers Ms. Pac-Man. “A Microsoft-made AI system has achieved a perfect score of 999,990 points on the Atari 2600 version of the classic ‘Ms. Pac-Man’ — making it very likely the first time anybody, human or robot, has “beaten” the game. Ever. The notion that this is the first time this score has been achieved is backed up by Highscore.com, a resource for tracking high scores in the still-competitive classic arcade gaming scene. Per that site, the highest score ever recorded in this version of “Ms. Pac-Man” was 266,330, by a player in Brazil.”
MUSIC VIDEO OF THE DAY. Jaden Smith “Batman”.
