(1) I finally found time to read these prepared remarks from Dep AG Rod Rosenstein the other day. I have decades of lower level experience in the NZ govt, doing similar work as the "document production" he talks about. I agree 100% with him. #MAGA

justice.gov/opa/speech/sta…
(2) I find nothing at all to disagree with in Rosenstein's speech. The "freedom caucus" showboaters who attacked him in the hearing are no friends of the Trump administration. But it is hilarious to watch Democrats defending Trump appointees bc they believe the ruse.
(3) I've been a 100% supporter of AG Sessions for at least 12 months, & before that I was a firm supporter who fell for the ruse (for just one week) before declaring my undying support for the #StealthElf. Then I later realized we are blessed with a #StealthGnome too. Glory.
(4) Dep AG Rosenstein (#StealthGnome) is clearly a legal genius, with one of the most impeccable records of public service of anyone in his role. Trump picks great nominees! For the most part. The longer I observe RR, the more I admire & trust him.

I know that upsets some. 😂
(5) I'm a huge fan of Director Wray, too. Yes he's boring, and isn't flashy but then, stop and think for a moment who his two immediate predecessors were.

Yikes.

I'll take a Director Wray any day, over those criminals.
(6) Every credible claim of FBI failure currently in the news occurred before Wray's watch, and before McCabe was fired. IMO it is only fair to start the clock ticking after that scoundrel had fully left the building.

That is a very short period of time.
(7) If you expect any mortal being to have cleaned up an enormous agency like the entire FBI in a matter of months then I'm sorry, but you are too stupid to be allowed access to me. Please remove yourself from my timeline.
(8) Similarly, Rosenstein has had a massive task not only help to keep the DOJ going despite unprecedented political challenges, but help Sessions and Trump pull off an equally unprecedented Art of War operation without exposure.

Hating on Rosenstein reveals your IQ level.
(9) Rosenstein's first media interview after taking office is essential viewing if you want to speak about him in an informed manner. The part relevant to this thread starts here:

(10) I will add further comments below and, if necessary, links to some of my earlier threads and tweets about Rosenstein.

I don't block people merely for disagreeing with me, since I'm not 5 years old. I block for excessive rudeness, stupidity or bigotry. Fair warning.
(11) This is what I mean by the above tweet. The bot accounts try to attack a target like Rosenstein by posing it as "just a question," then claim YOU are not co-operating with their "innocent" approach.

Have seen this 500 times before, so I block them before they get abusive.
(12) The bot's accusation is false. It's clear I am perfectly willing 2 help anyone learn about a topic AS LONG AS THEY ASK IN GOOD FAITH.

Once you've seen the bot script talking points as many times I have, you become able to spot them on sight.

They are NOT Trump supporters
(13) Here is a 37 tweet thread I wrote about who and what is behind these bot accounts.

(14) This short thread has some great observations about the Law Day interview Rosenstein gave. It was a watershed moment for those of us who have come to appreciate him:

(15) More evidence about the real Rosenstein, and not the Rosenstein portrayed by the "disinfo spreaders" aka fake Trump supporters.

Thread: Here is what makes me tick.

The issue is both political and personal. I survived a series of events over several decades and am now in a position to offer insights to others. The same healing process is directly relevant to world politics, too.

The above YouTube link is to the start of a 14 video playlist on the channel of the highly experienced Texan psychotherapist Les Carter, PhD.

The market has really taken off in recent years for therapists and others offering guidance through YouTube on surviving the behavior of narcissists.

There are many I'd recommend but Dr Carter is the one I most value at the moment.

Thread: Updates on the marvelous #PlatinumJubilee year of my head of state, HM the Queen.

I've written many threads in recent years about the shenanigans of certain recalcitrant family members. This time I bring concerning news of potential exposure to Covid.😟
Obviously I send get well soon wishes for Charles (and Camilla, who is likely to also test positive.)

I'm fiercely loyal the Queen, and Charles, and William. And their consorts were and are incredible, loved, and respected people too.
That color photo above is recent and was released to mark the anniversary of 70 years on the throne, on February 6 this year.

HM is thriving like never before, and she turns 96 on April 21, 2022. The Queen's Birthday celebrations in June each year are timed for summer.

This is true. But also, Ivanka Trump has broken the law of her own accord, multiple times. Trying to count them all would be a huge task.

On 1/6, failing to raise the alarm with any of the LEOs or Pentagon liaison personnel inside the WH is among the worst.

No impunity!
If I know someone has committed or is committing a crime, and I choose asking them nicely not to, instead of reporting it to law enforcement, I would be complicit in that crime.

Yet this is the narrative Ivanka Trump is trying to sell people. That she did all she could.
Everyone in the administration who had knowledge of what the defeated former president planned and carried out that day had a duty to report it *at the time* and to *fully* and voluntarily cooperate with any and all law enforcement and Congressional investigative bodies.

Thread: I find this hilarious on many levels. TFG is so clueless about business and politics that he thought tearing up a piece of paper at his desk would keep said paper out of the the National Archives, the courtroom, and the public domain.🤣

edition.cnn.com/2022/01/31/pol…
It's not all that different from Nixon choosing to record his own conversations as some kind of insurance policy then being forced to hand them to investigators. He even had his secretary claim she accidentally recorded over certain key parts.

Criminals are DUMB.
I've seen people in places I've worked pointlessly tear up paper before putting it in the bin under their desk. It was a sign not to trust them with anything important. My own shredding went through the shredder by my own hand.

Thread: Whoopi Goldberg's lack of education concerning racism

The thing that bothers me the most about her many attempts at clarifying what she said, is that her attitude is just to accept what her critics have said that "corrects" her view.

That is so intellectually lazy.
I think Whoopi Goldberg said this to get the criticism to stop.

What we actually want her to do is spend at least 100 hours quietly studying the facts about the Holocaust and at least 100 hours quietly studying current academic definitions of racism in general.
I spent way more than that number of hours studying these topics in recent years. My reason was so that I could *understand* the issues more deeply & be able to have more informed independent thinking about them.

I'd wager many have done the same in the #BlackLivesMatter era.

Thread: Ukraine, Jan 26, 2022

Just felt like sharing my thoughts on this buffer zone country that we (NATO and friends) need to keep on our side, against Putinism.

EIGHT years after losing a chunk of itself to Putin's Russia, and untold lives.
In the early stages of this (so far) 8 years long conflict, I was pissed af about Putin's aggression in Ukraine, and the apparent inability to stop it and restore lawful boundaries.

Like probably most of us in NATO-world, I then drifted on to following other global issues.
In 2016 I wondered what all the fuss over Putin was about. I had, unwittingly, allowed a brainwashing campaign to affect me. At some time in 2017 I awoke from that nightmare and realized he's not some teddy bear figure we can ignore. Then in 2018 the Skripals were poisoned.
