18 months ago I established conclusively, by reviewing Russian media, that Trump's Letter of Intent with the Agalarovs extended into February '17. Now people are publicly wondering if the Trump-Rozov talks extended past November '16, as though these prior analyses never happened.
2/ And we already know from my research of a *year* ago that the Trump-Agalarov deal *didn't* end in February '17, but was handed off by Trump to his sons and extended through at least July '17. Why would the Trump-Rozov deal be *any* different? Can anyone in media tell me that?
3/ Too often, questions are being asked in media for which valuable research has already been done--we just don't like that the research wasn't done by major media. But is that dilettantish approach to information any way to act/think about info, in the face of a national crisis?

(THREAD) I found myself in a position today to do what Congress and Mueller weren't able to do—ask Emin Agalarov questions. Thanks to THE NEW YORK OBSERVER for agreeing to put to Emin 4 questions I recently tweeted out. Here are my thoughts on his answers. observer.com/2019/01/emin-a…
1/ Emin says that he told Trump he could meet Putin during the 2013 Miss Universe pageant not because he'd *ever* spoken to anyone in the Kremlin about the possibility but because it was a natural thing to say regarding such a big event.

Great!—because that was a trick question.
2/ The invitation Emin extended to Trump to meet Putin that I wanted to catch Emin in a lie about was a *different* one involving...wait for it...a birthday party. Emin's claim that he only would've thought he could get to Putin because it was the Miss Universe pageant was a lie.

(THREAD) Some smart folks in independent and corporate media are being obtuse about whether Trump was in negotiations for *1 Moscow tower or 2* during the period of time such negotiations would be relevant to Mueller's probe. I break it down here. Hope you'll read on and retweet.
1/ First, understand that as both a legal matter *and* a political matter the importance—indeed necessity—of correctly discussing *two* Trump Tower Moscow deals rather than one has nothing to do with the date range some who know better focus on: June 16, 2015 to November 8, 2016.
2/ *Legally*, as a matter of Bribery—a discrete federal crime designated as an impeachable offense in the Constitution—the question is whether Trump participated in a course of conduct that began *anytime* pre-election and had him promising specific policy as POTUS for *payment*.

🅰️ TRUMP-AGALAROV TRUMP TOWER MOSCOW: North of Strogino District (map)

🅱️ TRUMP-ROZOV TRUMP TOWER MOSCOW: South of Presnensky District (map)

🅰️ TRUMP-AGALAROV TRUMP TOWER MOSCOW (2013-2017): LOI, Plans, Funding

🅱️ TRUMP-ROZOV TRUMP TOWER MOSCOW (2015-2016): LOI, Plans, Funding
2/ PROOF OF COLLUSION establishes via major media reporting that Trump has wanted *multiple* towers in Moscow since the late 80s. The media's insistence on discussing only *one* tower isn't based in reported fact, merely in a sense America can't concentrate on two towers at once.
3/ The two building sites—🅰️ and 🅱️—are *18 kilometers* from one another, so they're *not* the same project, same site, same architectural plans, same letter of intent, same business partners, same funding... yet media ignores one and tells us the other *is* "Trump Tower Moscow.*

Trump and Mussolini: 11 Key Lessons from Historical Fascism

Italian fascism provides a better model for our moment than Nazi Germany—and the comparison is not encouraging.

By: @Anis_Shivani for @AlterNet

1/
Fascism is a religion. The 20th century will be known in history as the century of fascism.
〰️ Benito Mussolini

2/
I’d like to draw some comparisons and contrasts between our present situation and that of #fascist Italy between 1922 and 1945. I choose fascist #Italy rather than #Nazi #Germany because it has always seemed to me a better comparison.

@Morning_Joe @morningmika @SteveSchmidtSES @MSNBC We need to stop fucking around with the whining & moaning about how bad #Trump is. And let’s not forget-Joe & Mika went out of their way to accommodate Trump before the election INSTEAD OF EXPOSING HIM. Trump isn’t doing.../1
@Morning_Joe @morningmika @SteveSchmidtSES @MSNBC ...ANYTHING that we couldn’t predict 18 months ago. But here were are. Let’s stop pretending: TRUMP IS A TRAITOR. It’s clear he only has #Putin’s interests in mind. They want to destroy our democracy. The number of people ok w/ Trump is a fraction of those who aren’t. So it’s../2
...REALLY SIMPLE:

*If you’re not registered to vote, get off your ass, go to your city offices & REGISTER. *Most states have early voting. Ask when you can get a ballot. Early voting means no standing in line.
*If you’re voting in November, find out where/when./3

How #Trump became a #Soviet/#Russian Agent
1. #Trump's first known visit to #Soviet and #Moscow in 1987 looks to be part of a pattern. The #SteeleDossier says that the #Kremlin had been cultivating# Trump for “at least five years” before 2016 elections, meaning it asserts a beginning in 2011 or 2012.
2.The #SovietUnion was interested in #Trump three decades earlier. The top level of the #Soviet diplomatic service arranged his 1987 #Moscow visit.

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
