HELLO DARKNESS, MY OLD FRIEND: It would appear that the world’s most exclusive club is made up of those who know what was said in Monday’s private meeting between President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin in Helsinki.

We do know it does not include the man who is in charge of knowing America’s most secret secrets, Dan Coats, director of national intelligence, or Gen. Joseph Votel, the U.S. top commander for Iraq, Syria, and Afghanistan.
