Take deep breath. This is an important read:

Lots of disputed facts spinning around on Rosenstein story.

@TomRtweets—in the Washington Examiner!—says an investigation is first in order to get to the truth before any action taken against Rosenstein.

washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/rod-ro…
"Regardless, there is no question that a prompt and vigorous investigation is now needed. That course of action is the only way that the truth can be established and public confidence in Rosenstein either retained or dissipated."
"That brings us back to the investigation. It shouldn't be that hard for a joint investigation by the Justice Department's Office of Professional Responsibility and the U.S. Inspector General's office to establish the truth here."

One small subpoena, one big effect. <thread>

A key that may unlock Trump's direct involvement in Russian interference is a phone call between Don Jr and mystery blocked number in setting up Trump Tower meeting.

Now Dems hold subpoena power.

Recall this:
thehill.com/policy/nationa…
Analysis by @AndyMcCanse is a must read on how the House's new Democratic majority can now pursue different threads in Russia investigation.

(analysis includes subpoena for the phone records, larger items like Russia money laundering, and more)

justsecurity.org/61409/russia-i…
On alleged Trump-Russian money laundering links—now likely to take on a new focus in House investigations—it's a good time to (re)read @craigunger's recent book:

"House of Trump, House of Putin: The Untold Story of Donald Trump and the Russian Mafia"

Big revelation in front page NYT story on U.S. support for Saudi #YemenWar

On left: General Votel says to @SenWarren Pentagon unable to tell whether U.S. fuel/bombs were used in Saudi strikes that killed civilians (March 13, 2018)

On right: NYT investigation shows opposite.
Here's NYT must read on US support for Saudi Yemen War👇

Insightful quotes by @LarryLewis_ (State Dept point person for Saudi coalition civilian casualties 2015-17) @Malinowski (former senior US official and new member of Congress)

I was also interviewed
nytimes.com/2018/12/25/wor…
“We concluded that they [the Saudis] were just not willing to listen." “They were given specific coordinates of targets that should not be struck and they continued to strike them. That struck me as a willful disregard of advice they were getting”

I just published:

#Flynn’s Work as Turkey’s Agent While a Transition Official: Judge Sullivan Was at Least Half Right

justsecurity.org/61952/flynns-w…
My analysis of Flynn’s Turkey-related activities during the presidential transition is based on great reporting by @JamesVGrimaldi @DionNissenbaum @mideastmargaret @shaneharris @aviswanatha @carolelee @JuliaEAinsley @VeraMBergen
I recommend also reading @emptywheel’s analysis making significant points about Flynn’s registering as an agent of Turkey only in March 2017, still lying on those forms, and conspiracy in which he participated with Turkey agents lasting into those months.

Was George Washington really the 1st President of the United States?

Or have we all been deceived?

#AmericaFirst #Trump @realDonaldTrump #MAGA #DrainTheSwap #QAnon #TheGreatAwakening #Disclosure #TrustThePlan #Jan2019 #1stPresident
Washington, born in Virginia was the 1st President of the Executive Branch of the US for 8 years from April 30th, 1789 to March 4th, 1797.

But who was President before 1789?

#BREAKING #AmericaFirst #Trump @realDonaldTrump #MAGA #Disclosure #TrustThePlan #Jan2019
Washington was elected to be president unanimously by the electors of the States .

Some States were unable to vote as they had not yet Ratified The “New” Constitution.

Whistling a happy tune, I walk up to booth selling sugar-cinnamon-roasted nuts at the farmer's market that's outside my building each Friday.

A young man in skinny jeans and facial hair steps in front of me, athwart the booth, blocking it. No problem! I'm in no big hurry. /1
The lady at the booth is nice and hands out samples. She extends a sample -- a sugar-roasted-cashew, I believe -- towards the young man with tongs.

The young man rears back, in joyful shock that such a thing would happen. Really? Me? After a time he accepts it. /2
The young man turns the sugar-roasted cashew in his hand, pointed towards him, his hand raised contemplatively, and regards it, like Hamlet looking at Yorrick's skull. What is this thing? What is it in itself? What is its nature?

I shift very slightly on my feet. /3

#Rosenstein’s remarks (about exercising the Fifth Amendment and wiring Trump) were clearly facetious. But it just occurred to me that this isn’t the point. 1/5
All the saboteurs on the Right might need to get Trump to stop #Rosenstein & the #Mueller investigation is the disclosure that there was a discussion that showed agency concern about Trump AT ALL. 2/5
It was reported early last month that Trump and Rosenstein had a “great relationship.”

It is hard to see how that kind of relationship can survive this NYT story, 3/5 tinyurl.com/yaaasm8j

hearing—"#China's Worldwide #Military Expansion" is a dramatic bellwether of growing concerns in Washington & beyond.

Now online—hard-hitting arguments + many data points, some deeply-analyzed yet hard to find elsewhere in public domain:

"today, the PLA Navy consists of over 330 surface ships & 66 submarines, nearly 400 combatants. As of 4 May 2018, the @USNavy consists of 283 battle force ships: 211 surface ships and 72 submarines."

"By 2030, it is estimated [by Fanell & @SCheneyPeters in their chapter in @NavalWarCollege @ChinaMaritime Studies Institute's Chinese Naval Shipbuilding volume amazon.com/Chinese-Naval-… @USNIBooks that] the PLANavy will consist of some 550 ships: 450 surface ships & 99 submarines."

Let me explain why Momentum's sweep of the Labour NEC elections has the elite and their media friends spooked, and throwing all kinds of sh*it at us today.... (1/2) It begins with Antonio Gramsci....
2/ Gramsci said taking power is not enough; behind the state, the elite have line after line of trenches with which to their defend privilege and enforced poverty and ignorance for the rest....
3/ Here's the relevant Gramsci writings... and for ppl who don't know him, almost every town in Italy has a Via Antonio Gramsci: he died in a fascist prison... people.duke.edu/~dainotto/Text…
