Judge in the @Acosta case is a Trump appointment. Hon. Timothy J. Kelly
Approved by the Senate 94-2.
Two No's: Gillibrand (D-NY) Warren (D-MA).
I saw some comment on @CNN that the delay of coming back tomorrow was prejudice to @Acosta . While I agree this is a critical issue that involves a significant Constitutional right, case was filed yesterday. Two days for a TRO in Federal court is pretty good. @CNN should chill.
Also for those who don't practice in Federal court, the TRO is not appealable. If denied it will usually be set for hearing on the preliminary injunction, denial of which is appealable.That's why in Muslim Ban they added a Mandamus request to get to the court of appeals faster.

1.Pretty sure unless @RT_Erdogan personally delivered it to @NYTimes #FARA says this must say: "Informational Materials Distributed by an Agent on Behalf of a Foreign Principal" IE Propaganda.
Erdogan: Turkey Has a Plan to Restore Peace in Syria nyti.ms/2REWFsY @FBIWFO
2. After then Turkish PM Davitoglu made a deal with ISIS for Mosul hostage release about August 2014 Turkey has been an active ISIS affiliate. The area of Idlib that Turkey occupies contains approximately 20,000 Al-Qaeda forces. Turkey by any analysis is a Terrorist affiliate.
3. More over, Turkey's armed forces and leaders have threatened to attack US forces in Syria. Erdogan has personally ordered the attack on US Citizens in DC. He and his family have traded with ISIS for oil stolen in Syria. By any measure Erdogan conducted himself as our enemy.

1. Breadcrumbs. Does this reflect @TheDemocrats apparent awareness of something related to suing Trump related parties? There is an issue with 18 USC 2520 statute of limitations that has put me on watch for an amendment. There is a chance that they know more than we do. Remember Notice of intent to file amended complaint
2. @TheDemocrats are victim of crimes committed by the Russians & US people associated with the 2016 Russian attack. This complaint does not name @realDonaldTrump individually but there is already sufficient proof from Micheal Cohen to add Individual No 1 as a RICO defendant.
3. I am not expert in US Attorney's obligations to victims but I do believe they get to know things not publicly released. Do Dems know that something is coming soon? Maybe. Maybe not. But I've been expected an amendment if it was if they were told. @Mimirocah1 @maddow @Lawrence

1. @KatyTurNBC @MSNBC just had a guest on from the @BrennanCenter. I missed her name. I think she said that the President could veto a 50 USC 1622 joint resolution ending a declared national emergency. IMO the statute makes no such specific reference to Presidential role in it.
2. I understand the US Const says President must sign resolutions but in the case of War Powers Act I think the President doesn't get a say. Nixon tried to stop it but his veto was overridden. Is @BrennanCenter sure about the power of the President to veto a sec 1622 resolution?
3. Any comment from @tribelaw @neal_katyal or their colleagues would be welcome. @maddow @Lawrence @MaddowBlog

@Jim_Jordan Any #Trump sycophant, alleged pedophile protector, trying to besmirch this hero, while his own children will have to suffer from the decisions made for the country, is sad. Why wouldn't the #GOP make it an open door session if they had nothing to hide? Your reign ends soon.
@Jim_Jordan As time passes, more comes to light, with the Steele dossier, Trumps alleged involvement in Epstein child sex ring where Secretary Acosta stopped the FBI investigation before more suspects could be arrested, and money laundering campaign contributions from Russian operatives.
@Jim_Jordan Plus your support for a theocratic monarchy that really acts like a ruthless inhumane dictator & desire to sell American technology to them when it could then be used to kill our own troops or handed over to Russia is genuinely INSANE. Who is dishonorable, spineless sycophantic?

Profiles in Absurdity: Jim @Acosta as First Amendment ‘Hero’ bit.ly/2PA1x2u
The latest theatrics involving Jim Acosta, the left-wing political activist posing as a CNN reporter, perfectly illustrate the reasons why ordinary Americans despise the Beltway swamp:
Anti-Trump propaganda masquerading as journalism, rude and arrogant “reporters” engaged in 24/7 “resistance,” a federal judiciary so thoroughly dominated by liberal opinion that even Republican-appointed judges parrot the views of their ideological captors...

Who funds the IEA, the TPA, the ASI &co?
You know, the RW 'free trade' thick tanks advocating tax havens, "freedom" (no regulations like workers' rights or environmental protection), no welfare (no tax & no free healthcare).
Basically, "Only the wealthier survive" philosophy?
1/n
*Could it be* that it has something to do with defending their funders' interests?
Today, I'm going to tell you the Thick Tanks' Hydra tale.
Featuring Atlas, huge piles of money, tradition, "free speech", useful idiots and a very clear agenda that Brexit/Trump are a part of.
2/n
Take a seat: It's a long story, with a lot of players, including politicians, pretty ladies squatting your TV, the climate change denial's network, the global fascist movement, Silicon Valley/multiname data-stealing/misusing company & private companies' involved in elections.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
