The things Ambassador McCallum said at this press conference (to which Cdn media were not invited) are pretty stunning. You have the Canadian Ambassador to China saying Meng Wanzhou has a strong case and laying out her argument #cdnpoli #china #huawei
Why is the Canadian Ambassador making the case for someone the RCMP arrested? I get the government is trying to push the US and starting to run the narrative the Americans need to act and file their extradition request, but this goes way, WAY beyond that #cdnpoli #China #Huawei
I'm very curious to know if these were sanctioned comments or if Ambassador McCallum was freelancing hoping to appeal to the Chinese govt #China #cdnpoli #Huawei
McCallum also puts @realDonaldTrump squarely on deck saying his comments were political... so how are the Americans going to react to that when Canada has asked for their help? Will it prompt it or will there be a diplomatic problem now #cdnpoli #China #Huawei
Everyone understands Trump politicized the arrest with his comments, but if that's the direction the govt wants to take in public and appearing to side with China, then surprising it wouldn't have come from @cafreeland #cdnpoli #China #Huawei
One wonders if McCallum thinks saying Meng has a strong case might prompt the Chinese to say the Canadians have a strong case? Not sure that adds up though #cdnpoli #China #Huawei

#Meng was charged with conspiracy to defraud banks. Canada’s Crown lawyer told the judge she has incentive to #flee the country. #Dishonesty is a factor in deciding her bail. The Crown lawyer argued that it’s difficult to set #bail high enough to prevent her from fleeing.

No evidence: the drug wore off, he used a condom, she woke up confused and drove home after the humiliating conversation. They were friendly the day before and she accepted his offer to stay over instead of taking the road so late. No witnesses. The perfect #crime. #FicFri
Overdose survived. She flirted with him until he invited her over again. She denied him nothing in bed, she was #obsequious. “I’ve got a surprise”, she said, and massaged his feet as he sipped the wine she gave him. He died of sepsis a week later. #vss365 #AmWriting
“He committed #treason against the sacred dojo. He disgraced the sport”, they said. “Perhaps. I am still going to the cremation ceremony. We must protect our art and not speak ill of a dead coach”, she said. “If he has a #soul, it will burn in hell”, they said. #FP #FridayKiss

Another #Maidan massacre bombshell: Yanukovych lawyer says that Yanukovych trial judge has refused to hear testimony & other evidence by pro-Maidan #Ukraine parliament deputy that Maidan leaders organized groups of snipers to shoot police & protesters
and that one sniper was captured by #Maidan protesters but was released by Maidan leaders. This deputy (Artemenko) was one of Right Sector leaders in Spring 2014, now lives in US and reportedly gave such testimony about Maidan massacre to the US grand jury in #Russiagate case.
In contrast, there is not single public testimony by ex-Yanukovych associates, police & SBU commanders/servicemen about order by Yanukovych or other government officials/commanders to massacre protesters, organizing or covering up snipers, or confessions about shooting protesters

1) The memo will be released. The release of it can't be stopped. It will take awhile. Maybe this week, could be next week.

2) The missing 5 months of texts messages between Strzok/Page were not 'destroyed'. A redundant system for the FBI's use failed to collect them.
3) The carrier on who's service the texts were sent will have them. The NSA & other intelligence services that collect raw comms will have them. They will be obtained by Horowitz & Sessions through a subpoena.
4) The usual suspects are already blogging that Horowitz claimed he got all the text messages he asked for and lied for months about knowing that 5 months worth were missing.

This is false.
