Yeah you know how Donald Trump has repeatedly denied that he had any contact with the Russians during the campaign? Well that's a lie.

(H/T to Americablog.

That event occurred on April 27, 2016 and was reported by Newsmax, a Right Wing news outlet, in May of that year.

The Wall Street Journal also reported essentially the same thing, also in May: 

A few minutes before he made those remarks, Mr. Trump met at a VIP reception with Russia’s ambassador to the U.S., Sergey Ivanovich Kislyak. Mr. Trump warmly greeted Mr. Kislyak and three other foreign ambassadors who came to the reception.

This from Think Progress:   

Trump has repeatedly insisted that neither he nor anyone on his campaign was in contact with Russia during the election. 

“Russia is a ruse. I have nothing to do with Russia. Haven’t made a phone call to Russia in years. Don’t speak to people from Russia,” Trump said during a February 16 press conference. He said he contacts with Russia were limited to talking twice to Vladimir Putin after election day. 

On February 20, Trump spokesperson Sarah Sanders flatly declared that the Trump campaign had “no contacts” with Russia. 

We’ve since learned that at least four members of the Trump campaign — Jeff Sessions, Michael Flynn, Carter Page, and J.D. Gordon — talked with Russian officials during the campaign.

As Joe Biden would say "This is a big fucking deal."
