It's been close to a little over 3 months to when Trump was elected President. I want those who wanted Hillary elected to stop throwing a fit and let the man do his job. Why don't you understand that you lost? Congressional Democrats need to stop stonewalling and work with Republicans & Trump to start working on passing legislation instead of obsessing over Russia, Jeff Sessions, Flynn, taxes etc etc. Confirm his appointees and get to work. Is that too much to ask? Are they so vindictive and bitter that all they want to do is stall?
Americans want both Democrats and Republicans to do their damn jobs instead of screaming and whining like toddlers who didn't get a piece of candy at the grocery store. Trump's address before the joint session was pretty good, but instead some want to sabotage him at every turn. I'm not going to rant about 'Fake News' because some of it is true. But for God's sake stop leaking because one of these leaks may end up getting someone killed.
GET TO WORK!!!!!!!!

Really, now? "Likely' paid? Either he was..or he wasn't.

The younger Trump was likely paid at least $50,000 for his Paris appearance by the Center of Political and Foreign Affairs. The Trump Organization didn’t dispute that amount when asked about it by The Wall Street Journal.
I did read the story, I was pointing out the strange wording of the title.

Nobody was confused by words, I was pointing out the stupidity of using the word "likely" in the title.

But it's because the Trump's hide their income, so TWS did its best to figure out how much he was paid for the event, which he did do and did get paid for. Period.

Because why is this newsworthy? Merely because of a connection to Russia?

I think the intent is to imply some connection because Trumps son, a business man himself, was paid at some think tank event hosted by people apparently who are allied with Russia over the Syria thing.
Is this how far we need to stretch now, for news?

Considering the past and ongoing Putin/Trump scandal, I'd say that is why.
I would also add that this realative non-story is more newsworthy than a story of former VP Biden's son being in a affair, but that's news too, because someone somewhere wants to read that.
Nah, I'd say both equally not newsworthy. Did you perhaps want to add anything else?

You see what he did there Fly, he put a "you got me" gif there, but he really doesn't think you got him, that rascal. Clever to the end.
