URGENT: PLEASE READ AND SHARE.

2/ The above statement was written by me, the owner and author of this Twitter feed.

3/ I'll further direct readers to the publicly available, already reported information on this topic, compiled here:

4/ I want to reiterate: I have credible sources. But I also stand by my statement, which clearly underscores the limits of this information.

5/ As noted in the thread incorporated above, the fact of a fracas at the Ritz was already reported by a top BBC reporter in The Spectator:

6/ The only information I'm adding is (a) the FBI has been in contact with a witness previously reported on, and (b) this is known to media.

7/ I have—and claim—no involvement in the reporting of the fracas itself, which originally came from Paul Wood, a BBC Russia correspondent.

8/ As indicated in the statement, I'm *not* reporting this information. I'm reporting this information is held by others and must be public.

9/ Just as BuzzFeed published a dossier of raw intel due to the urgency of it being reviewed and scrutinized by the public—so too this info.

10/ If you disbelieve the President's claims the only option left in North Korea is war, you see no urgency right now. I'm not in that camp.

PS/ I stand by my statement and the thread connected to it, and have no further comment. I will be doing no media appearances on this topic.
