Jones meets Rubio
“I don’t know anything about your site.”
As Jones talks over him, Rubio: “He’s weird man. Who is this?”
Jones to Rubio: “you are literally like a little gangster thug.”
Jones has called Rubio “a little punk.”
Now Jones comes up to a gaggle with Wyden, calls him an “unAmerican tyrant.” Wyden just walked away.

NEW: Two officials familiar with the matter say the incident detailed in the Feinstein letter involved possible sexual misconduct between Judge Kavanaugh and a woman when they were both in high school.

nytimes.com/2018/09/13/us/…
The information came in a letter, which was first sent to the office of Representative Anna Eshoo, Democrat of California. Feinstein shared its details with other Democrats on the Judiciary Committee Wednesday evening.
“Sen Grassley is aware of Sen Feinstein’s referral,” said George Hartmann, a Grassley spox. “At this time, he has not seen the letter in question, and is respecting the request for confidentiality. There’s no plan to change the cte’s consideration of Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination”

Anndd Alex Jones is here outside the Senate Intel heading room. He’s drawn quite a crowd. Police just ushered him away from a nest of cameras.
“They can say all day I violated their terms, but Jack Dorsey did not take me off Twitter.”
@JackPosobiec is also now here. And a Kavanaugh protester has temporarily joined the mix.

New with @SherylNYT: House Dems are discarding the lessons of successful midterms past (think “Contract With America,” and “Six for ’06.”) and pressing only a bare-bones national agenda as they head into the closing stretch.

@SherylNYT The bet is that w/anti-Washington sentiment simmering; a deep divide between mods and lefties; and Nancy Pelosi's brand toxic in large sections of the country, a unified campaign framework emanating from Capitol Hill would do more harm than good.
@SherylNYT But it is a risky strategy, essentially putting off answering one of the most immediate questions facing the Democratic Party after its losses in 2016: What does it stand for?

Lot of controversy, over ROHINGYAS, has been raging for past few months. But not many know anything about Rohingya beyond that they are migrants frm RAKHINE, Myanmar. They have sought shelter in many parts of India & now pose grave threat to our nation.

Over the weekend, I have been fixated on trying to understand all that happened in 2014 as key to the current (2018) university pensions crisis #ucustrike #ussstrike. An earlier thread is attached below. #ucustrike #ussstrikes
When I'm not on strike, I usually research by piecing together published, archival & grey literatures to build up a rich tapestry through which to get a grip on shifting phenomena. How do 'objects' & phenomena gain consistency & tractability? How do they change in form?
So here are some of the things (official lit, grey literatures, weblinks, newspaper/magazine articles etc.) that are currently in my "What happened around pensions, USS & UUK in 2014?" folder #ucustrike #ussstrikes

2/x @nra but now, having said that, can we dig deeper beyond the NRA, the american left has NO Democratic Party opposition to war. the fake Wakanda domiciled liberals and progressives have been manipulated to allies of the military-industrial-complex
3/x #nra Democrats who wore kente cloth and/or boycotted the State of the Union cannot find their voices to object to America’s bombing of Yemen, Pakistan, Afghanistan, or Somalia. hmmm
