The article is mostly a fluff PR piece for Erik Prince to share his patriotic world view - for example when asked if FSG is doing work connected to development of China's One Belt One Road infrastructure project, he replies that technically they are not

But as I reported, Erik Prince's Chairman's letter in the 2017 annual report for Frontier Services Group describes their entire business with all key regions aligned to China's One Belt One Road initiative

Erik Prince's Chairman's letter in the 2017 Frontier Services Group annual report states: "Key projects along the Belt and Road continue to be the Company’s main focus along with major infrastructure, resources and oil & gas projects in its target markets"

Two stories today about UAE selling off two huge NYC real estate investments

One story is about Abu Dhabi government fund & Tishman Speyer putting the Chrysler Building on the market - Abu Dhabi Investment Council had paid $800 million for a 90% stake
therealdeal.com/2019/01/09/abu…
And a majority stake in 330 Madison Ave owned by the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority is heading to the sales market at pricing expected to reach nearly $1 billion

I don't know that these two sales have any significance, but the size of the deals seems notable and worth keeping an eye on.

‼️Be Smart‼️

“Cambridge Analytica ...had had the [stolen] Clinton emails more than a month before they were published by WikiLeaks.”

Savor the implications. 🤗

It is fitting that Trump has been forced into retreat by babies. Cruelty should never be mistaken for strength.
‼️Be Smart2‼️

The dystopian Trump Admin is weaponizing gov’t by eviscerating regs that protect the 98% (those w/o money & power), & they’re weaponizing bureaucracy, in order to use it against everyone they don’t like, whether it’s immigrants or poor people or DEMs.

State of the #TrumpRussia investigation THREAD 1/8:

Despite President Trump's propaganda about #Mueller engaging in a 'Witch Hunt,' the facts betray a different narrative that is an existential threat to Trump's presidency.

h/t @Zac_Petkanas
Developments in #Mueller's probe have led to a panicked atmosphere among co-conspirators in the White House & their congressional allies.

There are 5 major reasons for this panic.

1) 23 indictments, 5 guilty pleas & 1 sentencing

2) Michael Cohen is close to flipping.

2/8
5 reasons for White House panic continued...

3) Paul Manafort is now in jail for witness tampering & could also flip.

4) Trump operatives Roger Stone & Michael Caputo had yet more undisclosed contacts with Russians.
