Today's appellate arguments in the defamation case against James Woods fell days after the right-wing actor disgracefully smeared Soros - a Holocaust survivor - as "satanic" and a "Nazi collaborator" - also on Twitter.
Memo to Woods' roughly 1.79 million Twitter followers on that tweet:

He's not, and shame on those who believe the smear. snopes.com/fact-check/geo…
If Soros did not exist, the anti-Soros would invent him.

Paraphrasing Sartre here as an introduction to @Attackerman's unpacking of the long and ugly pedigree of the conspiracy theories surrounding him. thedailybeast.com/theres-been-a-…

Prosecutors claim that indicted attorney Natalia Veselnitskaya fabricated supposed findings from a mutual legal assistance treaty. @PeteBrush dug up that Russian MLAT, and it's signed by "S.A. Karapetyan."

A top Russian prosecutor with that name died in a copter crash last year.
Just as prosecutors allege, the Russian MLAT clears itself and vilifies an "Investment Company" throughout, in particular, Bill Browder's Hermitage Capital.

Here's a story on the death of Karapetyan, whose name matches the one on the doc's signature. rferl.org/amp/russian-pr…
It should be noted that figures connected to the Prevezon case, believed to be tied to Russian organized crime, have a habit of encountering misfortune.

After Magnitsky's death in a Moscow prison, his family's attorney survived a four-story fall from his Moscow apartment.

🚨 MAJOR: Natalia Veselnitskaya, the Russian attorney in the June 2016 Trump Tower meeting, charged with obstruction of justice in the Prevezon case.

Manhattan U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman said she fabricated evidence.
Remember when Donald Trump, Jr. claimed that he "mostly talked about adoptions" with Veselnitskaya at the Trump Tower meeting?

That's Russia's response to sanctions over the death of Sergei Magnitsky, a key figure in the Prevezon case.

Background: courthousenews.com/judge-enforces…
The sealed indictment was docketed on Dec. 20, 2018.

You can find the unsealed 18-page indictment here. documentcloud.org/documents/5677…

Take the quote: “Impeach the motherfucker.”

It seems to me that a serious journalist should contextualize the operative verb “impeach.” The noun “motherfucker” typically requires little additional context.
For instance, how many people know that the day Rep. Tlaib made that remark, she co-wrote an op-ed with a constitutional attorney laying out the grounds they would cite?

Or that, a day earlier, her colleague Rep. Sherman announced plans to introduce articles of impeachment?
I spoke to Tlaib’s co-author in the below op-ed, attorney John Bonifaz, on Friday, to discuss the push for impeachment, touching upon the grounds, timing, momentum and more.

Look out for a story next week on the substance beyond the swear word. freep.com/story/opinion/…

[Thread] Based on recent discussions with @SamuelSokol, @TarikCyrilAmar, and @AuschwitzMuseum over the continued debates regarding the "naming" of concentration camps in Poland, I've decided it's time for a thread, b/c this is not about history but the present in Poland.
What has many Poles (and state-run museums) up in arms, is ANY connection of the word "Poland" with Holocaust sites (and more broadly behavior- hence the "correction" above.) They particularly rail against the term "Polish" death or concentration camps. edition.cnn.com/2018/02/01/eur…
The argument is that Poles did not establish or run these camps...which is absolutely correct. But the problem is, no one really thinks Poles built Auschwitz, etc. Sure, there are ignorant people out there or some students, but I defy you to find a scholar making this argument.

Today the Commonwealth is expected to present its final witnesses in the case against James Fields. Let's have a recap on what we've learned so far. Content warning for this thread for, well, the kinds of things that come up in a terroristic murder trial.
We've learned that Fields drove through the night from Ohio to arrive at the rally. He ate at a Waffle Street nearby, then waited at McDonalds and joined up with some folks.
We learned that he was not slowing down or braking as he approached the group. In fact, he was accelerating, tapping the brakes briefly only as he bounced over the speed break on the Mall.

It’s funny, when you see the pattern of politically motivated bombings today, we are supposed to sort of pretend that one political party hasn’t monopolized violence and terrorism in the US for the last two decades. (THREAD)
We get the immediate “both sides”ism coming not only from the right, but the “reasonable centrists”, including from folks I genuinely respect, like @artkellermanmd

But this is not a case of “both sides”. Sure, we are polarized and more divided than in living memory. And that’s not great, and the polarization is mutual. But ONLY ONE SIDE IS ROUTINELY KILLING PEOPLE.

Definitive debunking of fave far-right bogeyman—democracy backer George Soros. Newish for Trump, but long a trope in Russia. In a long line of anti-Semitic disinformation used by authoritarians thruout history to consolidate power & silence the most vulnerable. READ
@attackerman
@attackerman Authoritarian Putin smears Soros to demonize protests & choke Russia's democracy. "Angry mob" "paid protesters" = same tactic. Russian propaganda hosed our info space & seeped into GOP talking points. Soros attacks are anti-Semitic, racist & Republican. thedailybeast.com/theres-been-a-…
@attackerman The most Orwellian Russian disinformation uses the Soros smear—discrediting democracy b/c a Holocaust survivor is compelled to use his wealth to promote democratic institutions & human rights. Its deep anti-Semitic panic has long resonated with racists.👇thedailybeast.com/theres-been-a-…

1/102-My story begins in 2016, when @realDonaldTrump's speech on Globalism, woke me to the corruption in our government:

PLS WATCH:

It's no longer Left vs Right, it's:

WEALTHY CRIMINALS = #Globalists #DeepState #NWO

VS

#WeThePeople = Patriots & @POTUS
2/102-I'm no expert on the #NWO & I don't expect you to take my word for this corruption. I'm simply a patriotic American, who's been wondering WTH is happening to our nation?

Which is why, as I listened to Trump's speech, it resonated w/me & I became curious enough to research.
3/102-In this thread, I'll share MY #RedPill journey... the questions I asked, answers I found & conclusions I've drawn. I'm not arrogant enough to think I know everything or that all my theories are correct. So I look forward to learning more from YOUR comments & links. #MAGA 🤓

Why does Twitter deliberately target Right-wing accounts for Shadow-banning and why it will sooner rather than later completely back-fire and why they are ultimately going to destroy the Left and what a great day that will be. Thread. 1/15
It is no surprise Twitter targets accounts for “wrong think” or as we on the #Right like to call it “free-think” this is because of two events which are now totally and utterly inextricably linked, #Brexit and #Trump and the Establishment have been rocked to the core. 2/15
Neither of which were supposed to happen & yet they did now the Establishment is determined never to allow it to happen again or even at all, the reason for them happening was nothing to do with social media, but was to do with people knocking on doors and persuading others. 3/15
