Lots of pro Russian, pro Trump trolls out in force on Twitter tonight. On a Sunday. Disinfo armies engaged, will learn more about why now in the next few days.
2/My fav so far:
3/Look at the insane stuff the pro Putin/Pro Trump trollmasters are coughing up tonight. Stuff is so comically bad. But energy behind all this suggests Mueller may be up to something significant in next few days involving #TrumpRussia.
4/There is something desperate and weird in the proTrump/Putin trolls tonight. See this one:
5/Remarkable insight from a retired conservative with few followers but lots of tweets: . Troll or real person? Not a tough call.
6/Lots of examples of this kind of Russian generated sentiment in my Twitter feed in last 24 hours. Feel like we are all far better at seeing thru the BS, but more education needed.

Reminder Trump's border plan was rejected by a GOP Senate; Dems offered him $25b for the wall which he turned down; and now he is rejecting Jan/Feb Senate/House debate. He has utterly failed to get his way thru democratic means so he is blowing up our govt instead. It's insane.
2/And why Dems can't give into this kind of petulant authoritarian behavior. If they do so now incentivizes Trump to go around Congress again. Critical now for Dems to reestablish regular order - hearings, bills, analysis, debate. Democracy. How its worked for over 200 years.
3/Trump has already declared fictional natl emergencies around the deficit, trade and the border, invoking emergency powers to go around Congress. His rancid abuse of these powers is now going to have become a major issue for the House Dems. theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…

1/OK, since he brought it up, let's do a deep dive on why Trump should be fearful of being indicted for what was at the end of the day of a grand conspiracy to break American election laws and cheat his way into the Presidency. A thread.
2/First, people go to jail for what he did, for years. washingtonpost.com/politics/2018/…
3/Next, it wasn't just the illegal payments to a porn star and Playboy model. It was also the conspiracy with Russia to defeat Hillary Clinton, and the aiding and abetting of the massive Russian operation on his behalf once it was underway. justsecurity.org/42387/collusio…

Democrats have a lot to do now but finding their voice challenging Russia's ongoing influence over Trump, US foreign policy more directly chief among them. Great work here fr Rachel Maddow; but consider blocking US investigation into 2016, pro-Brexit/anti-EU, Syria, etc.
2/Apropos of @maddow's great #TrumpRussia pieces last night, here is a column I wrote before the 2016 election about the alignment AT THAT TIME between Putin's world view and Trump's. usnews.com/opinion/articl… Views which also did not exist "in nature" here in the US then.
3/Want to add one other area of weird pro-Russian Trump orientation - his embrace of fossil fuels, dismissal of clean energy, climate change, etc. Yes, US ONLY NATION ON EARTH not in Paris climate accords, but also Trump is now attacking electric cars? electrek.co/2018/12/18/don…

In my series of Tweets exploring The White Helmets Conspiracy Network, I looked at PartisanGirl’s Map and notice something odd happening on the right hand side.

Let’s find out what it is. *spoiler alert* It’s a coordinated ‘Pile-On” by The Russian Government.
At the centre, of the node and the Target of the ‘Pile-On’ is Bellingcat.

You can lear about them here 👉 bellingcat.com
The cause of The Russian Government sponsored ‘Pile-on’ on Bellingcat was this article about MH17 in the Washington Post

First re: strategy - don't over promise… that just leads to regret. So this is where the 💯%RE thing is a big mistake, which let's face it is fundamentally about 0% nuclear. And my take is that we need nuclear *with* renewables to make this work ultimately. 2/x @simonahac
There's other stuff: other techs, non-electricity emissions,… But clearly nuclear is the big bogeyman here so I'll focus on that. + the next decade or two will make clear(er) the difference in results b/w those that insist on effectively only relying on renewables vs those… 3/x
…using nuclear+renewables+whatever-else. i.e. California vs New Jersey with New York in the middle somewhere.
This strategy then is a long play. And we must recognise there will be "collateral damage" like X% loss of the Great Barrier Reef, where X>10 4/x
