In other news, the Trump Organization has been ordered to reimburse the Scottish Government for legal fees associated with Trump's failed attempt to stop an offshore wind power farm near his golf resort.

Meanwhile, the Southern Poverty Law Center has obtained emails from Trump's adviser and speech writer Stephen Miller showing he's even more unhinged and racist than we already knew.

In this, the first of what will be a series about those emails, Hatewatch exposes the racist source material that has influenced Miller’s visions of policy. That source material, as laid out in his emails to Breitbart, includes white nationalist websites, a “white genocide”-themed novel in which Indian men rape white women, xenophobic conspiracy theories and eugenics-era immigration laws that Adolf Hitler lauded in “Mein Kampf.”

Hatewatch reviewed more than 900 previously private emails Miller sent to Breitbart editors from March 4, 2015, to June 27, 2016. Miller does not converse along a wide range of topics in the emails. His focus is strikingly narrow – more than 80 percent of the emails Hatewatch reviewed relate to or appear on threads relating to the subjects of race or immigration.

Finally, Trump casually disclosed some probably sensitive intelligence during his economic speech in New York today. As one does.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump said on Tuesday the United States knows the location of the third in command to Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who killed himself last month during a U.S.-led raid.

“We have our eye on his third,” Trump said during the question-and-answer session following a speech at the Economic Club of New York. “His third has got a lot of problems because we know where he is too.

We know where he is, huh? I'm sure he's moving now that Trump said that.

Trump could be making this up and it would still be bad.
