Giuliani 3.0:

"The only thing that ever happened was that they submitted a letter of intent about a possible project in Moscow that never went beyond that....no plans were ever made. There were no drafts. Nothing in the file."

Hmm.

Here are the architectural drawings 👇plus...
2. "Cohen told congressional investigators that ... the Trump company began to solicit designs from architects and discuss financing."

washingtonpost.com/politics/top-t…
3. Oct 12, Sater "emailed Cohen. Their surrogates in Moscow would be meeting with Putin and a 'top deputy' just two days later, and they had financing: VTB Bank President and Chairman Andrey Kostin was on board to fund the project, Sater said in an email."
buzzfeednews.com/article/anthon…
P.S. That's the May 2018 Buzzfeed story which included quoted text messages between Sater and Cohen, and other documents; and the reporting was confirmed by other news outlets and in Cohen's and the Special Counsel's court filings.

This is not a credible face-saving attempt by President Trump. We all saw and read the testimony.

It's also a dangerous move by suggesting the Intel officials bent to his pressure to say they see things his way in the Oval Office meeting.

It's also analytically a bit absurd...½
Why then did Trump berate the officials by tweeting "The Intelligence people seem to be extremely passive and naive" and they "should go back to school!"

Did he go off half cocked? Basing his criticism on the media reports of the testimony, rather than the testimony itself? 2/2
.@john_sipher and @BenjaminEHaas:

US allies "may be left bewildered by the president’s contradictions…and fearing that US intelligence may bend under the president’s political pressure."

Trump's "we are all on the same page" now, amplifies this problem.

I don't understand these lines in @RDEliason's piece:
"The indictment does not allege any kind of agreement or coordination between Stone or the campaign and WikiLeaks. It portrays the campaign as primarily seeking information about actions that WikiLeaks was already planning."1/
2. The indictment alleges two times when Stone did not simply seek information about actions that WikiLeaks was already planning. (I discussed these on PBS @NewsHour)

On July 25, 2016, Stone tells Person-1 (Jerome Corsi) to "GET the pending WikiLeaks' emails."
3. On Sept 18, Stone asks Person-2 (Randy Credico) for specific WL documents about Clinton and Libya in 2011.

We know from WSJ (@shelbyholliday @rob_barry obtained their emails), Stone specifically told Credico those Clinton emails would not necessarily be in WL public documents

President Trump just tweeted:

“Roger Stone didn’t even work for me anywhere near the Election!"

Here's what the Special Counsel says about Roger Stone in:

Stone Indictment
Jerome Corsi draft Statement of Offence
Russian Intelligence Officers Indictment

Spoiler: it's damning
2. Trump vs. Special Counsel

Trump: “Roger Stone didn’t even work for me anywhere near the Election!"

Special Counsel Indictment of Roger Stone: Stone "maintained regular contact with ... the Trump Campaign through the 2016 election"
3. Trump vs. Special Counsel

Trump: “Roger Stone didn’t even work for me anywhere near the Election!"

draft Corsi Statement of Offense: Corsi “understood [Stone] to be in regular contact with senior members of the Trump Campaign, including with then-candidate Donald J. Trump”

(THREAD) BREAKING: Singer Emin Agalarov, son of Putin property developer—and Trump ex-business partner—Aras Agalarov, has cancelled a US tour to avoid questions from Congress/Mueller. Here are ten questions he's avoiding. I hope you'll read on and retweet. cnn.com/2019/01/21/pol…
QUESTION 1: When you came to America in mid-2013 to woo Trump and the Miss Universe pageant to Moscow, you were accompanied by persons connected to the Kremlin. What conversations did you (or anyone on the trip, to your knowledge) have with Kremlin agents about Trump pre-trip?
QUESTION 2: You are now suspected of being—or of being an associate of—the person who offered, in 2013, to have prostitutes go up to Trump's room at the Ritz Moscow with the intention of having whatever they did in his room be taped. Was it you? If not, what do you know about it?

Giuliani makes another major admission—Trump DID speak to Cohen about his testimony beforehand. “So what?” So the guy who lied to us about Russia DIDN’T tell Cohen to lie about Russia?? C’mon. Coaching, coordinating, directing—it’s all witness tampering—obstruction—territory.
Giuliani digs the hole deeper on @CNNSotu. Sidestepped Qs on Trump directing Cohen to lie. Said Trump was too busy running for POTUS to know details of Russia deal. It was COHEN’S project. So Trump talked to Cohen before his false testimony to GET info?? Right. (Tapper’s🤔face :)
@CNNSotu Giuliani did his Sunday morning propaganda best & still made key admissions: 1) Trump did talk to Cohen before his false testimony, 2) T knew abt Moscow project thru Nov election. So POTUS lied to hide he was compromised financially by Russia & had motive & oppty to tell C to lie

On the day of the 3rd GOP debate, Trump personally signed a letter of intent for a Trump Tower in Moscow.

At multiple events in 2016 & 2017, Trump lied, “I have nothing to do w Russia” & “I have no deals in Russia.”

Following Michael Cohen’s plea:

“Everybody knew about it.”
Trump's repeat & bold lies about Russia make him vulnerable to balckmail

Sally Yates explaining the details of why the Department of Justice warned Trump & the White House that Michael Flynn was vulnerable to Russian blackmail

Trump is dangerous to us

Watch puppet @realDonaldTrump wink at Putin as they begin that embarrassing summit in Helsinki.

Trump did it again in Paris.

Winking, thumbs up, pats on the back ...

almost like Trump & Putin are playing on the same team.

Trump is dangerous

Conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi in plea negotiations with Mueller, which could shed light on whether Trump or his advisers were linked to WikiLeaks’ release of hacked Democratic emails in 2016 washingtonpost.com/politics/stone…
"Word is friend in embassy plans 2 more dumps. One shortly after I'm back. 2nd in Oct. Impact planned to be very damaging."

Corsi informed Stone about the planned WikiLeaks Dem email releases 2 months in advance.

And Mueller has the exchange. nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
"Stone responded, "Get to (Assange) [a]t Ecuadorian Embassy in London and get the pending (WikiLeaks) emails."

Corsi passed the request along to conservative author Ted Malloch in London"

⚡⚡🤯 👇👇#Giuliani “Why don’t you write a report and show us what you have, because they don’t have a goddamn thing,” said Trump's lawyer yesterday. Okay. Here goes. Time to revisit what we already know. Oldie but goodie. I am sure Mueller has more. thedailybeast.com/giuliani-on-ru….
