Where the Trump-Russia saga goes from

During his blockbuster testimony Thursday, former FBI Director James Comey made several remarkable claims before the Senate Intelligence Committee: that President Trump directed him to drop his investigation into Trump's former national security adviser, Michael Flynn, and that the president fired Comey in an attempt to alter the course of the FBI's Russia investigation.

On Friday, Trump shot back, denying Comey's allegations and accusing the former FBI head of lying under oath.

Despite the president's alleged attempts to stymie them, several investigations into Russian interference in the 2016 election and possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian officials continue — perhaps with renewed vigor.

These are the related but separate investigations underway.

t turns out that the $110 billion Saudi arms deal is actually 'fake news'

It turns out that the $110 billionSaudi Arabia arms deal that the Trump administration announced in May is actually "fake news," according to the Brookings Institution.

Bruce Riedel, a senior fellow and director of the Brookings Intelligence Project, writes that everyone with whom he has spoken in the defense industry and on Capitol Hill says that the supposed $110 billion deal is actually "a bunch of letters of interest or intent, but not contracts."

In fact, a lot of these proposals, which the Pentagon calls "intended sales," are just arms that defense contractors speculate that the Saudis might want at some point. Many were even proposed during the Obama era.

For example, the Pentagon proposed to sell the Saudis four frigates for $11.25 billion in 2015, but since then, no contracts have been signed.

US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley said the US is "reviewing its participation" in the Human Rights Council over what said is the group's "chronic anti-Israel bias".
