And the story has advanced: "Cuomo Received $25,000 From Weinstein Lawyer’s Firm as He Suspended Probe" capitalandmain.com/cuomo-received…
The $25k donation from Weinstein's lawyer came in 6 days before Cuomo's office ordered the AG to suspend the investigation. buzzfeednews.com/article/albert…
As @jcassano & @davidsirota note in their story: "That suspension effectively shields Boies from scrutiny of any potential relationship between his 2015 donation to Vance and Vance’s decision not to prosecute Weinstein." readsludge.com/2018/08/29/cuo…
Worth noting that any investigation into Vance's handling of sexual assault cases also sweeps up the high-powered lawyers on his donor rolls whose clients have benefited from prosecutorial leniency: buzzfeednews.com/article/albert…

#Khashoggi Case Thread: I am going to ‘pin’ this post to use it as an ‘Info Thread’ on the #Khashoggi Case. I am in #Turkey. I’ve been following the case closely and with access to sources & experts here. This is a very ‘sensitive’ criminal case due to ‘Diplomatic Booby Traps’!!!
The Evidence Obtained Outside Cameras will not show any evidence of ‘tempering’ but other than license plates of dozens of diplomatic cars (Many with tinted windows-large trunks) with related time stamp, drivers Info, model/year: Nothing.
#Turkish Intel-Investigative Bodies also have the list of all Diplomatic & Private Saudi & “other significant’ Planes in #Turkey for the period of ‘interest.’ Many of the Target airports have their own security cameras & related evidence.

#Köthen: Der Verstorbene hat einen Schlag ins Gesicht (an der Lippe feststellbar) bekommen, ging danach zu Boden und verstarb an einem #Herzinfarkt. Rechtsmedizin hat keinen Hinweis auf Tritte, sonstige Schläge, Messerstiche.

PK zur Tathergang auf @ntvde jetzt.
Im Netz verbreitete Audio-Datei mit angeblichem "Totschlagen" von der Zeugin selbst gegenüber Polizei weitgehend relativiert.

Nicht, dass das für die Hetzer, Neonazis oder #AfD eine Rolle spielen würde.

#Köthen
Schwere Herzkrankheit des Verstorbenen seit Geburt, mehrere Herzoperationen danach, versagensbereites Herz durch das es jederzeit zu einem Herzinfarkt kommen konnte.

Ob jemand strafrechtlich verantwortlich ist für den Herzinfarkt, ist im Ermittlungsverfahren.

(THREAD--7 tweets). Yesterday I said that I agreed completely with the tweeters who approved of the decision of Michael Schmidt at the NYT to let Trump free associate, without challenges, at the “impromptu” interview at Mar-a-Lago. tinyurl.com/yd49823x
1/ Now we have WaPo reporting that WH staff and advisers were “surprised,” “frustrated,” and “embarrassed” by that freewheeling interview, where none of them were present. tinyurl.com/yaggqz5c
2/ The article doesn’t say what the staffers and advisers were “frustrated” and “embarrassed” about, but the interview gave them plenty of reason to feel that way.

India’s #Weinstein moment happened last year. Just that we choose to bury our head in sand. Heard of a man named Mahesh Murthy? #metoo 1/n
Six women –three on record –spoke about what @maheshmurthy did to them 2003 to 2016. This was my story last May: factordaily.com/mahesh-murthy-… 2/n
The creepiest story was how in 2003 Murthy preyed on @swatisays – just 19 years old then. A Reuters reporter now, she wanted closure. 3/n

Feminists are as anguished as anyone we didn’t have enough power to stop #Weinstein but at least we’ve been in the fucking fight.
Conservative women are not portraits in courage and can stfu on this one, honestly.
They let us do all the heavy lifting to make life better 4 their daughters while they avoid ruffling a single male feather in their worlds.

#Weinstein thing. I've been in some vile situations & everyone makes excuses for the bad guys. Like I've been told "but he's brilliant" 1/
As if talent is an excuse for misogyny. Or "his" talent outranks mine because it is PENIS talent. I've been told "he's on the spectrum" or
"he's going through something." And the thing is it makes YOU feel crazy. You can't trust your feelings or, worse, you KNOW you'll be told
