1/ Roger Stone's attorney was once with the firm of Rothstein, Rosenfeldt, Adler. All three of those men went to jail for their role in a massive $1.8 billion Ponzi scheme. Roger worked in their offices and was paid over $400,000 for "services" to Scott Rothstein,
2/ This is one of about a bazillion South Florida politics stories where Roger is up to his ass with weirdos, skeeze, and scammers.
3/ Some of RS's work for Rothstein was to help relect the #backstabber Charlie Crist. Rothstein once spent $52,000 on a cake for Crist. lol.

1/ In the midst of something close to 2000 emails along the lines of "Suck it, looser" and "I'm going to kill you" there have been a few heartfelt messages expressing hurt over my "ten tooth" line.

Allow me to make a few observations about this current moment.
2/ Obviously, not all Trump supporters are ten-toothed rubes, but I'd bet you a hundred quatloos research would prove all ten-toothed rubes are Trump supporters.

But that's not really the point, is it? The point is that Trump's base proudly endorses the most lavish cruelty.
3/ They adopt this language and attitude of unearned swagger and strength, of "fuck your feelings" and imitation of Trump's own cruelty, vulgarity, unjustified chest-thumping.

Trumpism isn't, for the 1000th time, conservatism. It's a parasitic infection feeding on hatred.

1/ So, since the predicted roundup of 60,000 traitors to the Republic based on the sealed indictments #QAnon keeps promising didn't happen on the 5th, or the 7th, the next milestone in their parade of conspiracy lunacy comes tomorrow.
2/ Tomorrow they believe there will be testimony about the Clinton Foundation by this Huber fellow. They think it's going to blow the lid off global cannibal pedophile Clinton international sex trafficking ring.
3/ Might want to exercise your eye rolling skills before tomorrow, because they will be needed.

1/ A quick Tallahassee note: yes, three days without power sucked. Yes, there are still plenty of people here without power, but the crews from around the country are crawling over every square inch of this County switching the lights back on.
2/ At this rate, sometime in the next 24 hours power will have been restored to almost every one of the 111k households that were blown out. The big, cooperative effort of Mutual Aid is a success story, and I see people in my timeline who were bitching within hours of the storm
3/ We were so unbelievably fortunate here. A few homes, including some near us, were badly damaged, but we we're spared the worst of Hurricane Michael.

I'd like to encourage my friends in Tallahassee to stop the stupid games about the power outage map.

As an early documenter of Manafort’s lobbying & money laundering schemes, I’m now working on a pre-election report on the Mueller probe: What’s in store for Trump, Pence, Kushner and others in the inner circle? How will the probe end? Help support this: gofundme.com/volunteerjourn…
1. (THREAD) Special Counsel Robert Mueller's ongoing probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election is zeroing in on a series of conference calls longtime Trump adviser Roger Stone hosted in 2016 where he predicted Wikileaks "will roil this race".wsj.com/articles/muell…
2. For months, Stone has been predicting his indictment by Mueller. “It is not inconceivable now that Mr. Mueller may seek to conjure up some extraneous crime pertaining to my business, or maybe not even pertaining to the 2016 election.”

Let's examine what those crimes may be:

Who Is Behind Trump’s Links to Arab Princes? A Billionaire Friend Tom Barrack - now Mueller's inquiry is examining whether the Emiratis and Saudis helped sway the election in Trump’s favor—potentially in coordination with the Russians
nyti.ms/2JCXmMe
"Barrack’s company, known as Colony NorthStar since a merger last year, has raised more than $7 billion in investments since Mr. Trump won the nomination, and 24 percent of that money has come from the Persian Gulf—all from either the UAE or Saudi Arabia"
nytimes.com/2018/06/13/wor…
In 2010 Barrack acquired $70 million of the debt owed by Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner on his troubled $1.8 billion purchase of a skyscraper at 666 Fifth Avenue
