A large police presence gathered outside of Chicago’s Trump International Hotel and Tower Wednesday afternoon due to a domestic disturbance in the building, autorities said.

There is currently an active shooter situation developing at Trump Tower Chicago, according to multiple reports. Currently, not much is confirmed, but multiple sources on Twitter are reporting that Chicago police and SWAT teams are surrounding the building; it is alleged that a woman was armed with a rifle when she entered.

Though the Trump Tower in New York City might be the most famous Trump Tower out there, there is another one in America that’s drawing in patriotic tourists that are big fans of the former (and likely future) president.There are two big differences between it and its namesake, however: it’s located about 50 miles outside of Houston, Texas, rather than downtown in New York City, and it’s a cheeseburger rather than a skyscraper.The Trump Tower focused on in this piece is a 16 oz cheeseburger decked with all the typical toppings and something special–American cheese, “Trump” sauce, lettuce, and tomato–and...

Robert Mueller says he was able to pinpoint security company executive Erik Prince’s precise location for several hours in January 2017 by matching his mobile phone signal to a cell site near Trump Tower in New York City. The special counsel’s report discloses the use of this investigative technique, by which police determine a suspect’s location via a cellphone’s GPS signal. The Prince narrative is one instance in unredacted sections of the report in which Mr. Mueller’s team explicitly discloses cellphone tracking. It raises the question of whether the FBI applied the process to other investigative subjects — a phone’s...

There’s a caveat to this claim: Sen. Coons hasn’t actually seen the transcripts. Nevertheless, Coons tells MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell he “believes” they exist.“Is the FBI Director being forthcoming enough with the intelligence committees?” Mitchell asks. Sen. Coons replies, “I think it’s important that the outcome of that counter-intelligence investigation be fully shared with the intelligence committees, both in the House and the Senate.“There are transcripts that provide very helpful, very critical insights into whether or not Russian intelligence and senior Russian political leaders, including Vladimir Putin, were cooperating, were colluding with the Trump campaign at the highest levels to...

Newly released notes taken by high-level Department of Justice (DOJ) officials during a March 6, 2017, meeting with FBI leadership expose some of the lengths the FBI engaged in to cover up its spying on the 2016 campaign of President Donald Trump. The notes were released on May 8 by lawyers representing former Hillary Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann as part of an effort to clear him on charges of having lied to the FBI. The notes, in reality, appear to do little to exonerate Sussmann but do provide quite a bit of information on the FBI. The meeting at...

Elon Musk called out an old Hillary Clinton tweet as a “hoax” Friday after a Twitter user flagged it for misleading disinformation and was ignored. The tweet, written Oct. 31, 2016 during Clinton’s failed presidential campaign, is a statement issued in response to a news report about an alleged secret server at Trump Tower that was being used to covertly communicate with Russia. “Computer scientists have apparently uncovered a covert server linking the Trump Organization to a Russian-based bank,” Clinton wrote in the tweet alongside the statement issued by one of her then-top aides, Jake Sullivan. A Twitter user tagged...

My late Friday night involved hitting refresh on PACER every so often, incurring the $0.10 charge for each search result as I waited on Special Counsel John Durham’s latest filing in the Michael Sussmann case. (Exciting, I know.) The motion exceeded expectations, discussing CIA conclusions that Sussmann was providing implausible data to federal authorities, providing CIA notes regarding their meeting with Sussmann, and confirmation that they essentially spied on President-Elect Trump. The motion can be found here. It was filed as part of the government’s efforts to convince the court that the evidence it seeks to admit in Sussmann’s trial...

The "Tech Executive-1" in John Durham's indictment of a Democratic cybersecurity lawyer testified in a lawsuit that he had invoked his Fifth Amendment rights when asked to testify by the special counsel. Rodney Joffe, former senior vice president at Neustar, coordinated in 2016 with Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann, who was indicted last year for allegedly concealing his clients, including Hillary Clinton's campaign and Joffe, from the FBI in September 2016 when he pushed debunked claims of a secret back channel between the Trump Organization and Russia's Alfa Bank. Alfa Bank filed a "John Doe" lawsuit and deposed Joffe in...

There are few people who have followed the Russia collusion hoax as closely as Dan Bongino. That’s why I made sure to listen to his podcast the Monday after the story broke regarding John Durham’s allegations about the Hillary campaign spying on Trump Tower, Trump’s apartment, and the White House. Sure enough, Bongino had a couple of interesting points to make. Also, I’ll share with you my predictions about what’s going to happen on the Hillary side of things. When I wrote about the Durham motion to investigate potential conflicts of interest between Michael Sussman and his attorney, the law...

Lawyers for former Hillary Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann are furious at Special Counsel John Durham for describing an effort to spy on President Donald Trump while in office — and cited Breitbart News coverage in their response. On Friday Durham filed a motion about the defense lawyers’ potential conflict of interest, including efforts to mine data about cell phone communications around Trump Tower, Trump’s private residence, and the Executive Office of the President in an effort to create a narrative about Russian “collusion”: The Government’s evidence at trial will also establish that among the Internet data Tech Executive-1 and...

Hillary Clinton refused to answer questions about allegations that her allies spied on the Trump campaign as the controversy continued to engulf her Tuesday. Exclusive pictures and video obtained by DailyMail.com show a stoney faced Clinton silently waving away repeated questions of whether she spied on Donald Trump. She refused to say when or if she planned to comment. Clinton was arriving at her daughter Chelsea’s Manhattan apartment mid morning. Wearing a blue coat and black pants, she looked strained behind her black face mask as she stoically ran the gauntlet of questions. The former first lady and secretary of...

FIRST ON FOX: Unearthed Hillary Clinton tweets from days before the 2016 presidential election show the candidate pushing now-debunked information that Donald Trump was using a "covert sever" linking him to Russia. Just a day after Fox News first reported that Special Counsel John Durham alleged that lawyers from her campaign had paid to "infiltrate" servers belonging to Trump Tower, and later the White House, in order to establish an "inference" and "narrative" to bring to government agencies linking Trump to Russia.

A bombshell report shows the depths of the Clinton campaign’s criminal activity. Special Counsel John Durham has filed a motion showing that lawyers for the Clinton campaign paid a technology company to “infiltrate” servers belonging to Trump Tower and later the White House. The purpose of this corrupt and illegal infiltration was to establish an “inference” and “narrative” to bring to government agencies linking Donald Trump to Russia. Durham filed a motion on Feb. 11 against former Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussman. Sussman has already been charged with making a false statement to a federal agent. He allegedly told then-FBI...

John Durham Puts Hillary Clinton On Notice In New Filing: ‘Active, Ongoing Criminal Investigation’ Special Counsel John Durham put Hillary Clinton, James Comey, Jake Sullivan and others on notice by calling his investigation into the Trump Russia story an ‘active, ongoing criminal investigation’ 3 times in a new court filing. Durham has been following the evidence and all signs point to the Hillary Clinton campaign. A former Clinton lawyer, Michael Sussmann, will stand trial for lying to the FBI this spring. Senior Legal Affairs Reporter at POLITICO, Josh Gerstein, said: “Special Counsel John Durham court filing calls his probe ‘active,...

Former President Trump released a statement on Monday discussing his four-hour deposition in the civil lawsuit involving alleged violence that broke out between protesters and his security guards in 2015, saying he was "pleased to have had the opportunity to tell my side of this ridiculous story." In 2015, a group of protesters of Mexican origin brought a suit against Trump and his head of security, Keith Schiller, following a rally outside Trump Tower protesting his inflammatory remarks about Mexican immigrants. They alleged that Trump's security assaulted them and infringed on their First Amendment rights to peaceful protest....
