I’m USA TODAY foreign correspondent Kim Hjelmgaard and I recently traveled to Ukraine to trace the origins of Trump’s Ukraine conspiracy theories. AMA! Posted: 17 Oct 2019 09:03 AM PDT Hello. I'm a London-based foreign correspondent for USA TODAY. I have worked for USA TODAY for almost seven years. I report on a broad range of foreign affairs-related topics, with an emphasis on making comparisons to U.S. policy and experience. In Europe, I have covered refugee crises, immigration, terrorism, the lingering impact of disasters, Russia-related topics, the conflict in Ukraine and, above all, the extraordinary stories and experiences of ordinary people. I have also reported from the Middle East, including in Iran, Israel, the Palestinian territories, and in North Africa. USA TODAY traveled to Ukraine in early October to try to understand the source of President Donald Trump's allegations against Joe and Hunter Biden, and also other claims of U.S. election meddling by Ukraine. More of my work: 'Come with us': A year after Jamal Khashoggi's killing, Saudi Arabian crackdown persists Chernobyl disaster 30 years later Proof: https://i.redd.it/1eiqpocr5ys31.jpg That's all I have time to answer today. Thank you for all the questions. I'll try to answer some more tomorrow. Keep following my coverage at usatoday.com. submitted by /u/usatoday [link] [comments]

Megathread: Trump has awarded next year’s G-7 summit of world leaders to his Miami-area golf resort Posted: 17 Oct 2019 10:32 AM PDT > U.S. President Donald Trump will host next year's Group of Seven economic summit of developed world leaders at one of his own properties, the Trump National Doral golf resort near Miami, a White House official said on Thursday. White House acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney said Trump would not profit from use of the property and defended the decision, which comes as the president faces ongoing criticism and congressional investigations over his finances and potential conflicts-of-interest.
