For anyone following the Strzok hearing. I've never have had any contact with Strzok. He is telling the truth.
Per @jim_jordan's question, why am I mentioned in this Strzok email? A week or two after the election, on my own accord, I shared the copy of the Steele memos I had with the FBI to see if the bureau would confirm the authenticity of the documents and its contacts with Steele.
This was part of my journalistic follow-up to the 10/31/16 story I wrote revealing the existence of the memos and reporting the FBI was investigating the allegations in the memo. I was still on the case & trying to discover more information about the memos and their allegations.
Why were there differences between the versions of the Steele memos I presented to the FBI and the version Buzzfeed posted in Jan. 2017? The version I had only included pre-election memos. The Buzzfeed version included post-election memos. This is not a big mystery.
A few months ago, @Jim_Jordan had a false conspiracy theory: the FBI had slipped me the Steele documents pre-election in order to sabotage Trump. This was not true. See:
motherjones.com/politics/2018/…
Now the rightwing conspiracy theory seems to be that I slipped the memos to the FBI to sabotage Trump. Also not true. They can't get their story straight.
The Strzok hearing and all the conspiracy-mongering is a distraction from the big story: Trump has tried to cover-up Putin's attack on American democracy, which aimed to help Trump.

In "Russian Roulette," @Isikoff & I noted that when Trump denied in 12/15 that he knew Felix Sater it was one of the most significant lies of the 2016 campaign--because that was Trump keeping secret the Moscow deal, which obviously could not proceed if Putin was against it.
By covering up his relationship with Sater, Trump was covering up his ongoing deal in Moscow. Trump was smart enough to know that it sure would hurt him politically if he revealed he was doing a Moscow deal while running for an office.
And Trump certainly knew he should not reveal that the Trump Organization had asked Putin's office for help moving the deal forward.

Anyone know why Mossad is so dangerous? They do what @ScottAdamsSays is doing now. Persuasion is telling the truth about the lie wrapped in a previous truth.
Yes, "There are two movies." But Scott only needs you to believe the one he's directing. He's a thinker, not an actor. He can't help but leak: Follow eyes, shoulders, and script. He drew this speech up on his whiteboard. He spent far too much time on it.
Scott has the advantage over #QAnon'ers. He gets to frame his own arguments. Scott knows window dressing is persuasion.

How do you trick a man into swallowing a blue pill?

Make them think they just dodged a red one.

A hypnotist convinces you the rain is insignificant.

1. #QAnon: How do you utilize the Russia Russia narrative to knock out decades old election corruption? Why are D’s opposed to cleaning up voter rolls? Why are D’s opposed to voters having ID to safeguard our elections? Why oppose basic ‘common sense’ methods?
Corruption.
#Q
2. #QAnon again makes reference to "common sense":
"Why oppose basic ‘common sense’ methods that are currently deployed World Wide?
Logical thinking.
Corruption.

3. #QAnon's reference to "common sense" was decoded from #1776: Common Sense Media, JIM Steyer's child advocacy group. "Think email." Jim & Tom Steyer & Podestas. $110 million from the Billionaire to assemble an army of 3000 aimed at impeaching @POTUS #Q

From the beginning, Zionists advocated a "Jewish State" not just in #Palestine, but also in #Jordan, southern #Lebanon, and the #GolanHeights as well.
As it will be proved from the quotes below:
#ICC4Israel #EthnicCleaning #Occupation #BDS #Gaza
Source:palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈
#Palestinians are not indigenous to #Palestine👈This propaganda has no other purpose than 2 further dehumanize Palestinians & justify #Israel’s ongoing ethnic cleansing & murder
In #BenGurion own words👇😡you'll see how that outrageous claim is far removed from historical reality
“We must expel the Arabs and take their places…”~#DavidBenGurion
Born in 1886 as David Green (Gruen) in Plonsk, #Poland. He is considered one of the three founding figures of Zionism beside #ChaimWeizmann & #Herzl.

1. #QAnon's been silent as we often see in prep and during @POTUS oversees travel, but h/o to @prayingmedic who's done a masterful review in the wake, or midst, of Page/#Strzok testimony for which the FBI lawyers have been attempting to restrict. #Q
2. #QAnon'd pointed a role of #PeterStrozk in how far back this'd gone. Although the Obama's FBI only opened up it's investigation into Trump campaign 7/31/16 when #Strzok met with London’s Australian embassy, we know it statrted way before July 16. #Q conservapedia.com/Obamagate_time…
3. #QAnon We know that it was March 2016 when Brennan secretly visited Moscow, Mifsud first starts setting up Pap (3/14/16) to suggest arranging meetings w campaign & "#Russians", Carter Page joins (3/21), & WaPo reports Pap at “LCILP” as if unaware only been a matter of weeks #Q

THREAD: Body Language Analysis No.4320: Peter Strzok's Congressional Hearing • • #Nonverbal #EmotionalIntelligence #PeterStrzok #CongressionalHearing #Hearing #RobertMueller #LisaPage #DonaldTrump #BodyLanguage #BodyLanguageExpert #EQ #BehaviorAnalysis
1/ Peter Strzok, an FBI Deputy Assistant Director, testified before the U.S. House Judiciary and Oversight Committees yesterday.
2/ Most anyone who watched the nearly 10-hour event would agree that it was the one of the most raucous and chaotic in memory - abundant with yelling and deeply personal exchanges. What follows is a partial nonverbal analysis of Peter Strzok's opening statement.

FARCE 101: Trump's captured House GOP are pretending they're having an oversight hearing when in fact they brought FBI agent Peter Strzok to badger & hold him in contempt. @RepGoodlatte just had a fit, made up rules, yelled at Dems, told Strzok he couldn't talk w his lawyer.
"At no time did my personal beliefs enter the realm of my work"—FBI #Strzok defends his negative texts about Trump. He said he wrote them late at night after he heard Trump's attacks on a Gold Star family and he was "disgusted" that someone running for president would do that.
Behold an incompetent witch hunt: Benghazi bulldog Gowdy’s mic drop really belongs to Strzok. In recounting his disgust at Trump insulting a GoldStar family, Strzok exposed just how morally bankrupt these disgraceful corrupt lapdog Republicans have become🎤
