Although Corsi contends that he testified truthfully before the grand jury and during his interviews with prosecutors, Corsi may yet face charges of his own from the special counsel, as he has said he has already walked away from a plea agreement about alleged lying about his actions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A passage in the indictment unsealed on Friday suggested that someone was not only telling Corsi about WikiLeaks’ intentions, but about messaging for use against Clinton. Specifically, Corsi began to recommend to Stone that Clinton needed to be portrayed as unhealthy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Would not hurt to start suggesting HRC old, memory bad, has stroke — neither he nor she well,” he wrote on Aug. 2, according to the indictment. “I expect that much of next dump focus, setting stage for Foundation debacle.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, neither Clinton’s health nor the Clinton Foundation were the focus of the next WikiLeaks release, but a messaging campaign based on Clinton’s supposed ill health took off in August 2016. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Russia’s state-controlled RT news site mentioned Clinton’s “bad health,” the \u003cem>National Enquirer\u003c/em> published a piece about it, Fox News host Sean Hannity discussed it on TV and then \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2016/08/18/490390614/trump-adds-fuel-to-conspiracy-theories-questioning-clintons-health\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump himself was warning about Clinton’s fitness by Aug. 18\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Was Assange the conduit for this messaging strategy?\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>What action did the Trump campaign take based on its alleged communications with WikiLeaks?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Stone took credit, according to the indictment unsealed Friday, for telling the Trump campaign beforehand about the Oct. 7, 2016, release by WikiLeaks of emails stolen from Clinton’s campaign chairman, John Podesta. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He has said since that he didn’t have any inside information and he was just puffing up his own importance — taking things Assange was saying publicly and making it appear to Trump’s campaign that Stone had learned them through some kind of inside line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s lawyer, Giuliani, said in December that Stone hadn’t given the campaign a heads-up but even if he had — as prosecutors now allege — \u003ca href=\"https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/rudy-giuliani-investigations-surrounding-president-donald-trump-left/story?id=59839387\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">that isn’t a crime\u003c/a>. Giuliani compared it to getting a tip that a newspaper is about to run a story before it appears. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Stone, as he and others observed on Friday, isn’t facing criminal charges related to the actions he took in 2016, but rather the accounts he’s given about them afterward to Congress and other related activity. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If that suggests prosecutors don’t consider Stone’s underlying conduct itself to be illegal, it also raises questions about what he or Trump campaign leaders expected out of the advance warning about the Oct. 7 disclosure. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What actions did they take — or not take — with that information, if any? \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.

Or did he have reason to expect that someone in Russia might be paying attention when he spoke? \u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>What communications did WikiLeaks potentially have with others in Stone’s circle?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Much of the contact prosecutors contend took place between Americans and WikiLeaks allegedly was actually via two Stone associates: conservative commentator Jerome Corsi and \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/06/25/623199053/mueller-seeks-interview-with-disputed-link-between-trump-campaign-wikileaks\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">radio host Randy Credico\u003c/a>, who has denied being a link between WikiLeaks and Stone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A statement issued by Corsi’s lawyers Friday says the Stone indictment vindicates Corsi — in Corsi’s view. Although Corsi contends that he testified truthfully before the grand jury and during his interviews with prosecutors, Corsi may yet face charges of his own from the special counsel, as he has said he has already walked away from a plea agreement about alleged lying about his actions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A passage in the indictment unsealed on Friday suggested that someone was not only telling Corsi about WikiLeaks’ intentions, but about messaging for use against Clinton. Specifically, Corsi began to recommend to Stone that Clinton needed to be portrayed as unhealthy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Would not hurt to start suggesting HRC old, memory bad, has stroke — neither he nor she well,” he wrote on Aug. 2, according to the indictment. “I expect that much of next dump focus, setting stage for Foundation debacle.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, neither Clinton’s health nor the Clinton Foundation were the focus of the next WikiLeaks release, but a messaging campaign based on Clinton’s supposed ill health took off in August 2016. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Russia’s state-controlled RT news site mentioned Clinton’s “bad health,” the \u003cem>National Enquirer\u003c/em> published a piece about it, Fox News host Sean Hannity discussed it on TV and then \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2016/08/18/490390614/trump-adds-fuel-to-conspiracy-theories-questioning-clintons-health\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump himself was warning about Clinton’s fitness by Aug. 18\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Was Assange the conduit for this messaging strategy?\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>What action did the Trump campaign take based on its alleged communications with WikiLeaks?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Stone took credit, according to the indictment unsealed Friday, for telling the Trump campaign beforehand about the Oct. 7, 2016, release by WikiLeaks of emails stolen from Clinton’s campaign chairman, John Podesta. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He has said since that he didn’t have any inside information and he was just puffing up his own importance — taking things Assange was saying publicly and making it appear to Trump’s campaign that Stone had learned them through some kind of inside line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s lawyer, Giuliani, said in December that Stone hadn’t given the campaign a heads-up but even if he had — as prosecutors now allege — \u003ca href=\"https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/rudy-giuliani-investigations-surrounding-president-donald-trump-left/story?id=59839387\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">that isn’t a crime\u003c/a>. Giuliani compared it to getting a tip that a newspaper is about to run a story before it appears. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Stone, as he and others observed on Friday, isn’t facing criminal charges related to the actions he took in 2016, but rather the accounts he’s given about them afterward to Congress and other related activity. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If that suggests prosecutors don’t consider Stone’s underlying conduct itself to be illegal, it also raises questions about what he or Trump campaign leaders expected out of the advance warning about the Oct. 7 disclosure. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The deal would reopen the federal government for three weeks, giving congressional lawmakers time to negotiate a plan for border security. Pressure had been growing on Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Trump, as delays and security concerns mounted at the nation’s airports over growing numbers of TSA workers and air traffic controllers calling in sick.

The justices voted 5-4, reflecting the high court’s conservative majority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The decision allows the Pentagon to bar transgender people from joining or, in some circumstances, remaining in the military while the lower court rulings are appealed. The justices did not allow the Trump administration to leapfrog the appeals court, as it had requested.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two cases — \u003cem>Trump v. Karnoski\u003c/em> and \u003cem>Trump v. Stockman\u003c/em> — are currently working their way through the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In both of those cases, Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan would have maintained a stay on the ban, Tuesday’s Supreme Court order reads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The transgender ban is being revived more than a year after a federal court in Washington, D.C., first blocked it in October 2017. U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly ruled that trans members of the military had “a strong case that the president’s ban would violate their Fifth Amendment rights,” as \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/10/30/560847850/federal-judge-blocks-trumps-ban-on-transgender-service-members\">NPR reported\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit \u003ca href=\"https://thehill.com/policy/defense/423862-appeals-court-sides-with-trump-on-transgender-military-ban\">lifted Kollar-Kotelly’s injunction\u003c/a> earlier this month, concluding that the ban had been substantially revised by the time it was instituted by former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis in March 2018. But other federal courts had also ruled against the ban — and until Tuesday, those other injunctions remained in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two outstanding cases come from California and Washington state, in the 9th Circuit’s jurisdiction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Human Rights Campaign, which is involved in the Karnoski case in Washington state, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/HRC/status/1087725575303774210\">condemned the Supreme Court’s decision\u003c/a>, saying it “thrusts this administration’s discriminatory agenda onto a military that clearly doesn’t want it, and does so at the expense of transgender people’s careers and service.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shannon Minter, legal director of the San Francisco-based National Center for Lesbian Rights, one of the organizations representing plaintiffs in cases challenging the ban, called the court’s decision a “very sad day for our military, for transgender people in this country, certainly for the thousands of courageous dedicated transgender service members who were willing to make the ultimate sacrifice to protect our country.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is definitely a body blow and a very traumatic moment for them to know that the United States Supreme Court has, however temporarily, allowed the Trump administration to enforce a ban that directly attacks them and falsely paints them as unfit for military service, even as they are every single day proving their fitness to serve,” Minter said in an interview with KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Minter was disappointed by the decision to grant the stay, he was encouraged that the Supreme Court is allowing the cases to proceed through the district courts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a temporary order,” Minter said. “It theoretically does allow the government now to enforce the ban while we all wait for the 9th Circuit to rule, which is going to happen any day now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-California, called the Supreme Court’s decision to allow Trump’s transgender ban to temporarily take effect “deeply disappointing” and “creates unnecessary confusion for transgender individuals serving in the military.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The ban would essentially restore ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ for transgender service members, only allowing them to serve if they hide their true identity,” Feinstein said in written statement. “That previous policy directed toward LGBT service members harmed our military then, just as this one will now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump announced his ban abruptly in the summer of 2017, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/890193981585444864?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E890193981585444864&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.npr.org%2F2017%2F07%2F27%2F539559582%2F5-unanswered-questions-about-trumps-ban-on-transgender-troops\">saying in a series of tweets\u003c/a> that “the United States Government will not accept or allow…… ….Transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The decision seemed to take Defense Department officials by surprise, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2017/07/27/539559582/5-unanswered-questions-about-trumps-ban-on-transgender-troops\">sparking confusion\u003c/a> despite Trump’s assertion that he had consulted “with my Generals and military experts.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tweets were followed by an official \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2017/08/25/presidential-memorandum-secretary-defense-and-secretary-homeland\">presidential memo\u003c/a> in August of that year, which gave the defense secretary (and for the Coast Guard, the Homeland Security secretary) the discretion to “determine how to address transgender individuals currently serving in the United States military.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s ban was a sharp reversal of a Pentagon policy \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/06/30/484192442/pentagon-says-transgender-troops-can-now-serve-openly\">announced in June 2016\u003c/a>, when former Defense Secretary Ash Carter said, “Effective immediately, transgender Americans may serve openly, and they can no longer be discharged or otherwise separated from the military just for being transgender.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That Obama-era policy was hailed as ending an era of legal and professional limbo for trans people in the U.S. armed service; Carter said the decision was made out of a desire to attract “all talent possible” to serve in the military.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time, researchers at the RAND Corporation think tank estimated there were as many as 7,000 active-duty transgender service members, with up to 4,000 more in the reserves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because of that policy and the lower-court injunctions, the first openly trans people were officially able to join the U.S. military \u003ca href=\"https://www.wbez.org/shows/wbez-news/with-ban-lifted-trans-chicago-man-hopes-to-aim-high-with-air-force/b2f35740-bed1-494e-be57-2c5cd96124ed\">on Jan. 1, 2018\u003c/a>. But now their status is once again in jeopardy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tuesday’s order states that if the 9th Circuit rules against the ban, the ban on trans people in the military would remain in effect until the Supreme Court justices either deny a request to hear the case (if such an application is made) or rule against the Trump administration’s policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>NPR’s Domenico Montanaro and KQED’s Ted Goldberg contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2019 NPR.

U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly ruled that trans members of the military had “a strong case that the president’s ban would violate their Fifth Amendment rights,” as \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/10/30/560847850/federal-judge-blocks-trumps-ban-on-transgender-service-members\">NPR reported\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit \u003ca href=\"https://thehill.com/policy/defense/423862-appeals-court-sides-with-trump-on-transgender-military-ban\">lifted Kollar-Kotelly’s injunction\u003c/a> earlier this month, concluding that the ban had been substantially revised by the time it was instituted by former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis in March 2018. But other federal courts had also ruled against the ban — and until Tuesday, those other injunctions remained in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two outstanding cases come from California and Washington state, in the 9th Circuit’s jurisdiction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Human Rights Campaign, which is involved in the Karnoski case in Washington state, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/HRC/status/1087725575303774210\">condemned the Supreme Court’s decision\u003c/a>, saying it “thrusts this administration’s discriminatory agenda onto a military that clearly doesn’t want it, and does so at the expense of transgender people’s careers and service.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shannon Minter, legal director of the San Francisco-based National Center for Lesbian Rights, one of the organizations representing plaintiffs in cases challenging the ban, called the court’s decision a “very sad day for our military, for transgender people in this country, certainly for the thousands of courageous dedicated transgender service members who were willing to make the ultimate sacrifice to protect our country.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is definitely a body blow and a very traumatic moment for them to know that the United States Supreme Court has, however temporarily, allowed the Trump administration to enforce a ban that directly attacks them and falsely paints them as unfit for military service, even as they are every single day proving their fitness to serve,” Minter said in an interview with KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Minter was disappointed by the decision to grant the stay, he was encouraged that the Supreme Court is allowing the cases to proceed through the district courts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a temporary order,” Minter said. “It theoretically does allow the government now to enforce the ban while we all wait for the 9th Circuit to rule, which is going to happen any day now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-California, called the Supreme Court’s decision to allow Trump’s transgender ban to temporarily take effect “deeply disappointing” and “creates unnecessary confusion for transgender individuals serving in the military.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The ban would essentially restore ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ for transgender service members, only allowing them to serve if they hide their true identity,” Feinstein said in written statement. “That previous policy directed toward LGBT service members harmed our military then, just as this one will now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump announced his ban abruptly in the summer of 2017, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/890193981585444864?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E890193981585444864&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.npr.org%2F2017%2F07%2F27%2F539559582%2F5-unanswered-questions-about-trumps-ban-on-transgender-troops\">saying in a series of tweets\u003c/a> that “the United States Government will not accept or allow…… ….Transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The decision seemed to take Defense Department officials by surprise, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2017/07/27/539559582/5-unanswered-questions-about-trumps-ban-on-transgender-troops\">sparking confusion\u003c/a> despite Trump’s assertion that he had consulted “with my Generals and military experts.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tweets were followed by an official \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2017/08/25/presidential-memorandum-secretary-defense-and-secretary-homeland\">presidential memo\u003c/a> in August of that year, which gave the defense secretary (and for the Coast Guard, the Homeland Security secretary) the discretion to “determine how to address transgender individuals currently serving in the United States military.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s ban was a sharp reversal of a Pentagon policy \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/06/30/484192442/pentagon-says-transgender-troops-can-now-serve-openly\">announced in June 2016\u003c/a>, when former Defense Secretary Ash Carter said, “Effective immediately, transgender Americans may serve openly, and they can no longer be discharged or otherwise separated from the military just for being transgender.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That Obama-era policy was hailed as ending an era of legal and professional limbo for trans people in the U.S. armed service; Carter said the decision was made out of a desire to attract “all talent possible” to serve in the military.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time, researchers at the RAND Corporation think tank estimated there were as many as 7,000 active-duty transgender service members, with up to 4,000 more in the reserves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because of that policy and the lower-court injunctions, the first openly trans people were officially able to join the U.S. military \u003ca href=\"https://www.wbez.org/shows/wbez-news/with-ban-lifted-trans-chicago-man-hopes-to-aim-high-with-air-force/b2f35740-bed1-494e-be57-2c5cd96124ed\">on Jan. 1, 2018\u003c/a>. But now their status is once again in jeopardy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tuesday’s order states that if the 9th Circuit rules against the ban, the ban on trans people in the military would remain in effect until the Supreme Court justices either deny a request to hear the case (if such an application is made) or rule against the Trump administration’s policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>NPR’s Domenico Montanaro and KQED’s Ted Goldberg contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2019 NPR.
