‘Illegitimate president’: Hillary and Chelsea Clinton call out Trump’s lifelong ‘scam’ on The View
Hillary and Chelsea Clinton thoroughly trashed President Donald Trump’s continuing obsession with his 2016 rival’s emails.
Trump has dispatched Attorney General William Barr and other top government officials on round-the-world trips seeking more evidence that would implicate Hillary Clinton in the start of the Russia investigation that has dogged his presidency, and the mother-daughter pair told ABC’s “The View” he was clearly unwell.
“His whole life has been a scam,” Chelsea Clinton told the show’s panelists.
Hillary Clinton said the president’s focus on her, and his efforts to undermine the Russia probe, are a subconscious confession of guilt in a Russian scheme to tip the election she lost.
“He’s obsessed with the fact he was helped a lot,” Hillary Clinton said. “He accuses other people of doing what he does.”
The former senator and secretary of state said she never fully understood the psychology of projection until she saw her former presidential rival try to justify his election win.
“He knows he’s an illegitimate president,” Hillary Clinton said.

Inspector general found ‘no evidence of political bias’ in Trump-Russia probe: report
Inspector General Michael Horowitz's report on the origins of the probe into the Trump campaign's contacts with Russia has found that there was no evidence of political bias on the part of law enforcement officials who began the investigation.
The Associated Press reports that the report "is expected to conclude there was an adequate basis for opening one of the most politically sensitive investigations in FBI history and one that Trump has denounced as a witch hunt."
The IG's report also found that former British spy Christopher Steele, whose infamous dossier on Trump featured salacious allegations about the president and Russian prostitutes, played no role in the opening of the probe, despite claims from Trump's Republican allies who argued that it was central to the investigation.

DOJ argues Congress can’t stop Trump Org from taking foreign payments — despite Constitution’s emoluments clause
The so-called emoluments clause has been the center of a case that many legal scholars have been making that President Donald Trump is regularly violating the Constitution by continuing to accept payments from foreign governments via his businesses.
The Washington Post reports that an attorney from the Trump Department of Justice argued on Monday that the emoluments clause doesn't actually prevent Trump from accepting payments from foreign governments, even though the clause specifically states that "no person holding any office of profit or trust under them, shall, without the consent of the Congress, accept of any present, emolument, office, or title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State."
