THE DAY AFTER HELSINKI: President Trump is scheduled to meet with members of Congress this afternoon at the White House, one day after his unprecedented performance alongside Russian President Vladimir Putin in Helsinki. Unprecedented in the shocking way an American president sided with a foreign foe against his own intelligence and law enforcement agencies, and unprecedented in the torrent of bipartisan condemnation that followed swiftly thereafter. The White House isn’t saying who Trump will meet with or what specifically is on the agenda, but it’s the only event on his official schedule for the day.

THE BIG OFFENSE: In a joint news conference rife with outrage-provoking comments, the moment that left the biggest mark came when AP reporter Jonathan Lemire asked Trump who he believed, Putin or every U.S. intelligence agency? “My people came to me, Dan Coats came to me and some others, they said they think it’s Russia,” Trump said. “I have President Putin; he just said it’s not Russia. I will say this: I don’t see any reason why it would be.”
