The Trump Foundation today agreed to shut down in scandal. CREW first brought attention to its illegal activities almost three years ago. Let's take a trip down memory lane 1/ washingtonpost.com/politics/trump…
In March 2016, CREW discovered the Trump Foundation illegally gave a $25,000 political donation to support FL AG Pam Bondi while her office was reportedly investigating Trump University. It never brought a complaint. We did. 2/ citizensforethics.org/press-release/…
The next day, Trump representatives admit to the illegal donation, blaming an increasing series of unlikely clerical errors. 3/ citizensforethics.org/weve-got-quest…

When Rudy's client, @realDonaldTrump, supported Pam Bondi for AG, it was with an illegal $25K donation from his charity while her office was reportedly reviewing complaints against Trump University. She never took action against Trump U. Let's take a stroll down memory lane. 1/
Two and a half years ago, we filed the first complaint against the Trump Foundation with the IRS for the illegal donation to support Pam Bondi and for failing to disclose it on its tax returns. 2/ citizensforethics.org/press-release/…
The next day the Trump Foundation blamed its problems on an increasing series of catastrophic clerical errors, which if true (unlikely), raised serious questions about how the charity operated 3/ citizensforethics.org/weve-got-quest…

@_ImperatorRex_ @carterpage @DonaldJTrumpJr @GenFlynn @realDonaldTrump Very interesting, I would be curious about her Russia statements during the debates as well relative to the rest of the timeline. She seemed to know more than she was letting on and kept suspiciously bringing it up.
@_ImperatorRex_ @carterpage @DonaldJTrumpJr @GenFlynn @realDonaldTrump npr.org/2016/12/12/505… What are the odds of this leaking to the Clinton campaign, and why was Hillary pushing the Russian collusion angle as far back as the second debate? This is before this became a major news story of "Trump Russia Collusion" sharylattkisson.com/2018/10/06/col…
@_ImperatorRex_ @carterpage @DonaldJTrumpJr @GenFlynn @realDonaldTrump In first general election debate, Clinton takes aim at Russia:

"But increasingly, we are seeing cyber attacks coming from states, organs of states. The most recent and troubling of these has been Russia. There's no doubt now that Russia has used cyber attacks against all kinds..

1/ The #Saudi kidnapping of #Khashoggi reminds me of the kidnapping of #Hariri. It is meant to embarrass the other party, this time the gov of #Turkey, and provoke a diplomatic crisis. This is drug Cartel methods. It has no other goal than to assert power over the other.
2/ However, resorting to these methods to assert power in the political and international affairs sphere is always a sign of weakness and a sign of a power in crisis. #SaudiArabia

(1) The extreme accommodations being offered by Grassley & Mitch are the greatest #BlessYourHeart in history.

They know she will NEVER repeat her allegations under oath.

They know the votes next week WILL be 11-10 then 51-49.

They know Kav will NEVER be impeached.

#Chill
(2) OK I used a little poetic license in Tweet #1. They can't know exactly what the votes will be; there's more than one way to #ConfirmKavanaugh next week. Any judge *could* theoretically be impeached on a new issue, but IMHO Kav is the least likely person ever to commit crime.
(3) I've had it with all the shrieking over this confirmation. No, ongoing Democrat slime ball tactics to undermine Kav once he's on the SCOTUS are not going to succeed. Haven't you learned this by now?

The more they try, the more they show voters who they are. #WalkAway

This is so so good ...
I had never known these profound distinctions between #intelligence and #Wisdom. Found it
#TooGoodNotToShare ..

1 Intelligence leads to arguments.
Wisdom leads to to settlements

2 Intelligence is power of will.
Wisdom is power OVER will
3 Intelligence is heat, it burns.
Wisdom is warmth, it comforts

4 Intelligence is pursuit of knowledge,it tires the seeker.
Wisdom is pursuit of truth, it inspires the seeker

5 Intelligence is holding on.
Wisdom is letting go

6 Intelligence leads you.
Wisdom guides you
7 An intelligent man thinks he knows everything.
A wise person knows that there is still something to learn

8 An intelligent person always tries to prove his point.
A wise person knows there really is no point

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:

CAPT Jim Fanell, USN Ret, former @USPacificFleet N2:

"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’s talk about Jared #Kushner: son-in-law & senior adviser to 45, wife to The Scientist, son to a scumbag convicted felon, head of a failing RE company, recidivist SF-86 liar, and traitor to his country.

[THREAD]
1/ It can be tempting to regard Jared Kushner as a little twerp, an undeserving nebbish who bought his way into Harvard yet somehow gets to boink Ivanka and also run the country. Let’s put that stupid narrative aside.
2/ Kushner is arguably the most egregious lawbreaker & evildoer in all of Trump’s Cell Bock D of an administration. He is more criminal mastermind than schlemiel. Not a GOOD criminal mastermind, but still. What is already publicly known is enough to convict him many times over.
