Per pool reports, this would have been about 10:30a Friday. He left the Oval to Marine One, off to Joint Base Andrews to Orlando, at 10:45a.https://twitter.com/evanmcmurry/status/838066662544928769 …

Two hours after that meeting, the tweet attacking Schumer went out via iPhone (meaning, staff) from Trump's account.https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/837722869106880517 …

So. On this ABC report on the "ballistic" Trump meeting in the Oval:http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-flashes-anger-sessions-recusal-russia-stories-tense/story?id=45908106 …
-
First thing: Notable that McGahn was in the Sessions session. Remember that Sessions said he alerted counsel's office he'd be recusing.pic.twitter.com/mVP80OuQWH
-
So, if Trump's livid that Sessions recused, some of that anger likely was directed at McGahn — who's had a rough month and a half already.

Second, if in-town pool "captured" this yesterday, why didn't we hear about it yesterday? [For ex: It wasn't in the print pool report.]pic.twitter.com/LYAvI8uZaF

And, now a Politico follow on the Oval Office meeting, which oddly lists McGahn separately, but still in there:http://www.politico.com/story/2017/03/trump-anger-jeff-sessions-russia-probe-235684 …
-
And, the Politico report, as I suspected, notes that Trump directly addressed McGahn: http://www.politico.com/story/2017/03/trump-anger-jeff-sessions-russia-probe-235684 …pic.twitter.com/3EKOmOSTjO

NEWS: Now we're expected to expect the revised refugee/travel executive order on Monday, per Politico: http://www.politico.com/story/2017/03/trump-anger-jeff-sessions-russia-probe-235684 …pic.twitter.com/beulBaTfe2

So very important to note here: If Trump's whole thing is that he hates admitting mistakes, how do they think this new EO is going to go?!?!
-
Like, read this section, and then imagine Trump having to sign a new order, revoking the first one: http://www.politico.com/story/2017/03/trump-anger-jeff-sessions-russia-probe-235684 …pic.twitter.com/HRT8X6F8EL

This seems BOTH like not the best use of their time AND incredibly interesting in light of Friday's Oval ballistics.https://twitter.com/JakeSherman/status/838118234742272000 …

Unless there is something to this — https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/feb/27/commerce-nominee-wilbur-ross-bank-of-cyprus-putin … — Ross is going to be pretty bored at dinner tonight.
-
Outside of Ross, though, this is like the refugee/travel ban EO inner circle (minus Tillerson), so if it is happening Monday, makes sense.
-
McGahn is busy searching for FISA warrants AND due to be at dinner with the AG who just recused himself from any related DOJ investigations.
-
"Is Don on a plane? When's dinner? Did he find a warrant?" This Mad Men-24 crossover episode is too much for me to handle!
-
BTW, current version of the McGahn-seeking-info-on-a-FISA-warrant part of the NYT story is significantly expanded. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/04/us/politics/trump-obama-tap-phones.html?smprod=nytcore-iphone&smid=nytcore-iphone-share&_r=1 …pic.twitter.com/Z40iU7utHO

Also, it seems like the WH was like, "Oh, this is problem?"

no, I think he is fuming because his ace in the hole, Sessions, is no longer going to be able to defend him in this debacle.
