PROOF OF COLLUSION drops in 90 minutes; it's currently at #152 on Amazon and climbing. Many thanks to all of you who've sent it rocketing up the charts! That a book compiling all public evidence of Trump-Russia collusion could attract this attention sends a clear signal to Trump.
2/ Update: #135 with 45 minutes to go. The support from everyone here has been amazing.
3/ Final pre-release update: #118 nationally. Thanks so much to everyone! I'll post my upcoming interview with @DanRather (10:30AM, SiriusXM Channel 102) when/as I can.

NOTE: Today's "failed" Manafort redactions (including revelations that Manafort secretly negotiated on Ukraine with a Kremlin spy) put the thread below in an *entirely* new light. If you didn't read it when I posted it a few days ago, I'd strongly suggest taking a look at it now.
2/ Those who follow my feed regularly know my name-spelling game is usually pretty tight; I'm good at avoiding typos. In this case, I want to note the obvious: that having correctly spelled Konstantin Kilimnik's name a million times in my book and elsewhere, I misspelled it here.
PS/ I put "failed" in quotes here not to suggest that Manafort's attorneys were deliberately incompetent, but just as a way of explaining to those who don't know the whole story that there were redactions that were done improperly and therefore failed to redact critical material.

(THREAD) A couple days ago, MSNBC's @maddow presented compelling preliminary evidence that Trump gets intelligence and propaganda from Kremlin sources. Tonight I'll add to her report in a significant way by discussing the meeting pictured below. I hope you'll read on and retweet.
1/ VANITY FAIR has credited this feed with being the first to recognize the significance of the March 31, 2016 meeting Trump convened—at the Trump International Hotel DC—of his "National Security Advisory Committee." I can tell you @NatashaBertrand deserves a lot of credit, too.
2/ It was a single line from an article (below) Bertrand published on March 3, 2017 that caused me to spend hundreds of tweets dissecting all aspects of a meeting media had previously thought unimportant.

It turns out it could be more key than I realized. businessinsider.com/jd-gordon-trum…

Trump juxtaposing the shutdown and impeachment is no accident. True or not, it is likely he thinks that the longer the government isn't functioning properly, the longer it takes Democrat-led House committees to do the Trump-Russia investigative work the Republicans refused to do.
2/ Make no mistake: Trump's ambition is to forestall the impeachment question just long enough to have the Republican and Democratic primary processes start in earnest. At that point, he and his lawyers will say that *voters* should be allowed to decide Trump's fate—not Congress.
3/ Trump will only have to convince 34 Senate Republicans to vote against his conviction, so developing a rhetorical argument that says impeachment must not interfere with the right of voters to choose their leaders is incredibly important for Trump. And this argument could work.

Amazon’s decision to take #HQ2 to D.C. and NY is about enveloping government and media, the two primary checks on concentrated power in a democracy.

It’s decision to also go to Nashville is about deflection. 1/
Jeff Bezos’s intention is to usurp the authority of government: to set the rules by which other firms are allowed to trade and to levy a tax on their trade. 2/ See: thenation.com/article/amazon…
Bezos also intends to assume control of the government’s data and spending. Already #Amazon hosts a lot of federal data. It also controls the purchasing of many government agencies, all the way down to your local school district. 3/ See: ilsr.org/release-amazon…

1) My thoughts on why our #MSM being called a #FreePress is...

Complete bullshit.

(THREAD)
2) Our #FreePress never challenges Democrats on their talking points. Only Republicans get this 'privilege'.

@AdamSchiffCA is on TV all day talking about how their is proof of #Collusion, but we've yet to see ANY.

Anchors just sit back and listen to the narrative of the day.
3) Anyone anti-Trump gets to make the rounds everywhere spouting nonsense against @POTUS.

You'd think a #FreePress would of learned after Wolfe's book backfired, but instead...

Here's comes @OMAROSA who gets more insane with each interview.

Welcome to #twitterstorians101

This online workshop for #ozha2018 will be running throughout the day, if it doesn't interest you feel free to mute the hashtag. 😃
If it does, fit yourself into that lecture seat with the wobbly table thing that is just a bit too small, pull out your notebooks and let's begin.

#twitterstorians101
I'll begin by introducing myself; I'm one half of this workshop's facilitation after all.

My name is Will Scates Frances and I joined twitter in 2011. I am a PhD candidate at ANU, in my last year. I've written the equivalent of 62+ history theses on here.

1. It’s debatable whether “economic anxiety” fueled the vote for President Donald Trump. While evidence points to fear of lost social status as a primary driving force in 2016, the same evidence puts that fear in a global economic context.
2. What’s not debatable, I think, is another kind of “lost social status” felt not by the fabled white working class, but the old white conservative intellectual class that no longer has a home in real-world politics. They are the real left behind.
3. I’m talking about elite conservative pundits still paid lots of money by elite publications who can’t quite figure out what to do with themselves now that their views have lost much of their impact on policy makers and partisans.
