FBI, don't read this

THE BIG STORY

Roger Stone told Trump in advance that WikiLeaks would release Clinton campaign emails

Trump was told in advance about documents embarrassing to the Clinton campaign and subsequently informed advisers that he expected more releases would be coming, according to newly unredacted portions of special counsel Robert Mueller's report into Russia's interference in the 2016 election.

The new revelations are the strongest indication to date that Trump and his closest advisers were aware of outside efforts to hurt Clinton's electoral chances, and that Stone played a direct role in communicating those efforts to the Trump campaign.

STAYING ON TOP OF THIS

The FBI used its most advanced spy plane to watch Black Lives Matter protests

The aircraft is normally used to provide surveillance for big federal drug and gang busts — but flew over the Black Lives Matter protests in DC earlier this month, as well as over Baltimore during protests over the death of Freddie Gray.

The FBI's Cessna Citation is a one-of-a-kind spy plane fitted with sophisticated cameras for long-range, persistent video surveillance, day or night. It began circling the nation's capital late on the night of June 1, and then again the following two nights as protests continued, and it made a shorter flight on June 6.

SNAPSHOTS

Aaron Glee, 49, the man charged with the murder of Oluwatoyin "Toyin" Salau, a 19-year-old Black Lives Matter protester, admitted to killing her and another woman, police said in court documents reported by local media.

Comedian D.L. Hughley tested positive for the coronavirus after collapsing onstage in Nashville on Friday. "If your ass pass out in the middle of a show onstage, you probably need to get tested," he said in a video on Twitter.

Malcolm Harsch's family says his death was a suicide after seeing video footage. Harsch is one of two Black men whose bodies were recently found hanging from trees in California.

Actor Cole Sprouse has denied allegations circulating on Twitter that he sexually assaulted a woman at a party in 2013, after similar accusations were also lodged against three of his Riverdale costars Sunday.

RALLY RECAP

Trump's busy weekend

President Trump held his first rally in months in Tulsa on Saturday, and it went about as well as expected:

• A woman in an "I can't breathe" shirt was removed from the rally for "trespassing."

• Trump's campaign said six staffers who were working on the rally tested positive for the coronavirus.

• The president said he told officials to "slow the testing down" so coronavirus cases don't increase (and used racist language to refer to it).

• Trump also took some time to defend how he shuffled down a ramp and drank water during a speech.

In other Trump weekend news, he tried to quietly replace a prosecutor taking aim at his allies, and it blew up in his face. It's not the first time that's happened.
