1. Has @Trump business dealings finally become threat to US national security and US troops in Syria? First: @realDonaldTrump is taking money from business in Turkey. That's not subject to any dispute. Here Trump admits to conflict of interest in Turkey
2. Second: Turkey is no longer an ally. We pretend it is to keep the fiction of @NATO unity in tact but the fact is Erdogan and his AKP are allied with US enemies like ISIS, Al-Qaeda, Russia and Iran. This is not subject to dispute.
3. August 2016, when US allies #SDF negotiated ISIS' surrender of #Manbij, the ISIS forces drove into Turkey. This is a fact and the @StateDept @CIA & DIA know it's true. IMO these ISIS are among the fighters with Turkish forces in #Afrin and near Manbij.
4. We have tolerated a lot from Trump family but #ISIS is a bridge too far. If Trump does not defend our troops from Turkey & its ISIS allies, Trump family assets should all be seized in civil actions under 18 USC 2333. Every dime. @IvankaTrump @EricTrump @WHNSC @WhiteHouse

1. Why does @msnbc @TheRevAl have non experts like @michelleinbklyn opining about a President's power? What other area of expertise is subject of unqualified folks giving opinions? How about non MD guest discuss brain surgery or how to stick a screwdriver in your fuse box?
2. Here's Yale Law School prof on @realDonaldTrump lacking power to declare a national emergency to build a wall. If you don't read the @nytimes should you actually be on NYC news set? No, Trump Cannot Declare an ‘Emergency’ to Build His Wall nyti.ms/2RzudZw @maddow
3. Every time you put these false arguments on as fact you are engaged in propaganda for someone who very likely is a Kremlin agent. Do you jobs. Report facts and use only experts to give opinions. Michelle is great. I enjoy her. But she is not a Constitutional law professor.

1. Want to stop #MAGA #BuildTheWall?

@SpeakerPelosi should make funding limited to only funding costs of eminent domain actions on US border. Suits take years & will turn NM, CA, Texas & Arizona against @HouseGOP @SenateGOP @SenSchumer @GOPLeader @senatemajldr.
2. Then put in a claw back trigger. The money will just sit there until we impeach & remove @realDonaldTrump (soon) or at the outside he is out on Jan 20, 2021 for sure because he lost Texas and seat held by @JohnCornyn (who blocks me) due to eminent domain issue.
3. This plan blocks any political bump @realDonaldTrump hopes to get from his steel wall issue and puts the money in what is essentially an escrow pending the end of the Trump Tyranny. @TheDemocrats

1. From September 2018: Where is bin Laden's partner in crime, Ayman al-Zawahiri? @CNN cnn.it/2QcrpxX
2. There are more Al-Qaeda now than ever before. Estimate in Syria alone is as many as 20,000. From March 2018. “The resurgence of Al-Qaeda” goo.gl/BjJmxR, via @LowyInstitute
3.Turkey is allied with Al-Qaeda. That's a fact. If we are at war with Al-Qaeda by virtue of 2001AUMF aren't we at war with Turkey too? What's the plan for dealing with the 20,000 Syrian Al-Qaeda that US economy is supporting by continuing trade with Turkey?

#Syria: following unexpected move, Trump ordered withdrawal of US personnel & troops (~2,000) from #Syria. Pullout should be completed within 100 days. reuters.com/article/us-usa…
#Pt. Apparently Trump took decision to withdraw US troops from #Syria after phone call with Erdogan, de facto greenlighting in short term a Turkish-led Offensive vs #SDF & #YPG.
Following US decision to withdraw troops from #Syria:
- Regime reinforcements heading to Manbij & #DeirEzzor (deal w/ SDF-YPG likely)
- Maghaweer Thawra seeks evac of ppl from Rukban Camp (Al-Tanf) to N. Aleppo
- Turkey says it is working with US & also Russia + Iran.

The Suffocation of Democracy

By: Christopher R. Browning

1/
As a historian specializing in the #Holocaust, #Nazi Germany, and #Europe in the era of the world wars, I have been repeatedly asked about the degree to which the current situation in the United States resembles the interwar period and the rise of #fascism in Europe.
2/
I would note several troubling similarities and one important but equally troubling difference.

In the 1920s, the US pursued #isolationism in foreign #policy and rejected participation in international organizations like the League of Nations.

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
