<THREAD> We're learning more about the bailout of Kushner's family business. @CREWcrew points to the involvement of a Qatari-backed company. 1/6
Any ties between the bailout and geopolitics is purely circumstantial at this point, but it's worth noting a Qatari sheikh had previously backed out of providing a lifeline to Kushner's family business. We wrote about it here: 2/6 @traciemac_Bmore
Kushner is close to Saudi Crown Prince Mohamed who led a blockade against Qatar, with the UAE. Kushner & @realDonaldTrump backed the blockade when it began. 3/6
Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Russia appear to have coordinated the Qatari blockade. 4/6 narativ.org/2017/06/07/an-…
The same three countries (Saudi, UAE and Russia) also played a role in Trump's election, under a global agreement negotiated by mercenary Erik Prince. 5/6 @traciemac_Bmore narativ.org/2017/11/23/bil…
Will @realDonaldTrump and Kushner shift their stance on Qatar now that 666 Fifth Avenue is out of trouble? It's hard to distinguish private business from geopolitics in our new political reality. It's the very dynamic which propels 'strongman' politics. /END

<<THREAD>> Been thinking a lot about the Israeli-based Psy-Group who likely contributed to the Trump Campaign's digital efforts. I wrote about them in the latest Narativ. @traciemac_Bmore 1/4 narativ.org/2019/01/02/sal…
It's interesting the work Psy-Group did mirrors what the Internet Research Agency in St. Petersberg is said to have done for Trump. 2/4
IRA was meme-centric, PSY fake news, and Cambridge Analytica psychographics. We have clues CA worked with Psy. Did Psy work with the IRA? 3/4

<Thread> If Zuck and Sheryl don’t realize the gravity of the situation now, they should rethink their roles. We did try to tell tell them, didn’t we, @traciemac_Bmore ? 1/6
The 5 biggest Facebook stories on Narativ.

Sept 5, 2017. Putin’s psychological warfare strategy. How a real war was waged in the minds of the masses. @traciemac_Bmore 3/6 narativ.org/2017/09/05/psy…

<<Ivanka-Thread>>

This takes you back....., @traciemac_Bmore @LincolnsBible 1/6
Back to the time, @realDonaldTrump and @IvankaTrump built a Trump Tower in Baku, Azerbaijan with a developer tied to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, Anar Mammadov. We wrote about it here: 2/6 @traciemac_Bmore narativ.org/2017/07/23/cri…
Mammadov's father was a once powerful former Azeri Transportation Minister Ziya Mammadov. His Baghlan holding company is a main player in the Azerbaijan Laundromat. @IvankaTrump played a big role in the design and build of Baku. 3/6. @traciemac_Bmore

#THREAD: It was Poroshenko's ''State of the Nation'' address today. Here are some important points.
NUMBER 1: Poroshenko wants to amend the constitution by removing a clause allowing the Russian Fleet to be stationed in Crimea. "After we retake Crimea, the Russian base will no longer be stationed in Sevastopol!" he exclaimed.
NUMBER 2: Poroshenko wants to rapidly rebuild the defenses on the coast of the Azov Sea in order to be better prepared for any further Russian hostile acts.

There's been so much corruption, waste, and incompetence in the Trump Administration lately that it's hard to keep track of it all.

Rather than do anything about it, the Republicans who control Congress cover it up or even indulge in corruption themselves.

Consider... <thread>
A Secretary of Commerce accuse of "grifting" millions of dollars from business partners.
A Secretary of Education who is avoiding taxes by registering her families $40 million yacht in the Cayman Islands, all while making it harder for American students to pay for a college education.

<THREAD> In a quiz I made recently, and did at Roorkee and work, there aws this long, A to AA question based around the Nanavati vs. State of Maharashtra case, so thought I'd tell that story here, too, because threads with fundaes are fun.
So, around 60 years back, Sylvia Nanavati, a Mumbai resident, tells her decorated naval officer husband, Kawas Nanavati, that she's had an affair with a flamboyant businessman called Prem Ahuja.
Mr. Nanavati marches down to Mr. Ahuja's house, finds him in a towel, just out from a bath. He whips out his service revolver and shoots him dead.
The story is, predictably, widely covered in the Mumbai tabloids.

ROSNEFT—It’s The #TrumpRussiaConspiracy that put Trump in office.
Eat it. Sleep it. Until you learn it.
Qatar bought Rosneft with a right of repurchase by Russia.
Why did that happen after the blockade?—
Ask Kushner.

2) ROSNEFT—Donnie’s Conspiracy
“Kushner received a massive and badly needed $184 million loan from Qatar after he backed a United States blockade against the country.”
@jonathanvankin
3) ROSNEFT—Donnie’s Conspiracy
“..Qatar was also a buyer in the Rosneft deal, in which the state-owned Russian oil mega-firm sold off 19.5 percent of its shares to a company owned in part by the government of Qatar..”

<THREAD> I'm now hearing this meme that governments around the world have defeated communism.

Guys. It's time for some Marxist theory
A spectre is haunting Europe--the spectre of Communism. All the Powers of old Europe have entered into a holy alliance to 1/590
exorcise this spectre: Pope and Czar, Metternich and Guizot, French Radicals and German police-spies. Where is the party 2/590
