Voter fraud is extremely rare but here’s an article about a woman who tried to vote for Trump twice. She thought her first ballot would be changed to a vote for Clinton. This is what she gets for believing Trump’s rigged election nonsense. Sad!

No Collusion?
Mueller is trying to get information on Trump campaign-Russia collusion from Gates. We’ll see if all of Trump’s denials are just more lies. Sad!
Trump campaign encouraged Papadopoulos outreach to Russia
What happens if Trump fires Mueller?
What happens if Trump fires Mueller?
In my opinion: Nothing.
Democrats will complain but they have no power. Some Republicans will complain but they won’t do anything to discipline Trump such as impeach him. Republicans in Congress know their base supports Trump over them and they will not go against their voters. Republicans are unwilling to pass a law that would prevent Trump from firing Mueller so they won’t do anything after the fact.
Sad!
Trump’s lawyers
More on Cambridge Analytica
Cambridge Analytica, under fire for misusing Facebook data, worked on the Trump campaign. This is an overview of the situation from the Washington Post.
Is it relevant that Stormy Daniels is a porn star?
I don’t think it matters that Stormy Daniels is a porn star. Her occupation does not factor into the activities covered by the suit. She met Trump in a hotel, not on a porn movie set. If, for example, Daniels was a teacher, would the media keep mentioning that? I doubt it. I don’t think it’s fair to Trump either for the same reasons. The alleged payoff had nothing to do with her profession. I wish the media would use her real name (Stephanie Clifford) and leave her occupation out of it when discussing the lawsuits.
However, it is relevant when discussing how she is profiting from the publicity by having a tour.
Belated happy birthday to her – she turned 39 on March 17th.
Trump’s newest lawyer supports conspiracy theories (just like Trump)
Trump has added Joseph D. diGenova to his legal team. He has said, according to the article “Make no mistake about it: A group of FBI and DOJ people were trying to frame Donald Trump of a falsely created crime.”
That’s not true but it sounds like Trump’s thinking. It increases the likelihood that Trump will fire Mueller. Sad!
Trump and McCabe
It appears that there was a valid non-political reason for the firing of Andrew McCabe. I think Trump would have been better off just to let that part of it play out and be the story. This article reviews what McCabe and Trump have said.
However, Trump is gloating about the firing and making it political as part of his efforts to undermine the Russia investigation. Sad!
