"I’m critical at times of the @realDonaldTrump administration. In this case, I think they’re doing the right set of moves. They’re ratcheting up the pressure. And you know, there’s a strategic context here, Hugh." --@stavridisj
"And I want to commend @SecPompeo and National Security Adviser @AmbJohnBolton . I think they’re steering this one just about right." --@stavridisj hughhewitt.com/admiral-james-…
"HH: Do you believe most Americans will support a robust support of the Venezuelan spring?
@stavridisj : I do, and I’m certain they will support a political and an economic one...we want this to happen for all the humanitarian reasons and the reasons for the entire region.
But strategically, this is really about democracy versus totalitarianism. And that, I think, is the big issue of our times. Do authoritarians get to stay in power just because they want to, even when they have failed their country miserably?
And I think in that context, this is a very important strategic set of events that’s about to unfold." @stavridisj on #VenezuelanSpring hughhewitt.com/admiral-james-… cc: @dandrezner @ronmarz @DavidCornDC @JoshTPM

"HH: Have you talked w/@realDonaldTrump about Venezuela?
@SenTomCotton: We have spoken about it, yes.
HH: How about with your friend, @SecPompeo and @AmbJohnBolton ?
TC: Spoken with the major players in the administration as well as my colleagues in the Senate about the issue.
This is something I think where almost everyone is on the same page. And frankly, a lot of Democrats are supporting this decision as well." hughhewitt.com/senator-tom-co…
HH: You have a seat on the Armed Service Committee. Yesterday, Ambassador Bolton walked into a briefing with a yellow pad that had on it 5,000 troops to Colombia. Are you informed of that?
TC: That was an interesting moment, Hugh. I’ll leave it at that.

“The Chinese government sees this moment as its chance to wire the world — especially European, Asian and African nations that find themselves increasingly beholden to Chinese economic power.”
“President Trump has identified overcoming this economic problem as critical, not simply to right the balance economically, to make China play by the rules everybody else plays by, but to prevent an imbalance in political/military power in the future as well,” John R. Bolton,
@realDonaldTrump’s national security adviser, told The Washington Times on Friday. “The two aspects are very closely tied together in his mind.”

The key paragraph in the indictment of Stone:
STONE’s False and Misleading Testimony About Communications with the Trump Campaign
35. During his HPSCI testimony, STONE was asked, “did you discuss your conversations with
the intermediary with anyone involved in the Trump campaign?
” STONE falsely and misleadingly
answered, “I did not.” In truth and in fact, and as described above, STONE spoke to multiple
individuals involved in the Trump Campaign about what he claimed to have learned from his
intermediary to Organization 1, including the following:
a. On multiple occasions, STONE told senior Trump Campaign officials about
materials possessed by Organization 1 and the timing of future releases.
b. On or about October 3, 2016, STONE wrote to a supporter involved with the Trump
Campaign,

Wow. "How to be Successful" by @sama is simply one of the best career guides I have ever read.

I'll summarize Sam's tips below but DEFINITELY check the full post out.
1 Compound yourself
2 Have almost too much self-belief
3 Learn to think independently
4 Get good at “sales”
5 Make it easy to take risks
6 Focus
7 Work hard
8 Be bold
9 Be willful
10 Be hard to compete w/
11 Build a network
12 You get rich by owning things
13 Be internally driven
1. Compound yourself 📈

Make your career compound—most careers are linear

Each unit of work should generate more & more results. Get your leverage from capital, tech, brand, network effects & managing people

Try to add another zero to whatever you define as your success metric

So this was a resounding "go for it". So here goes:

I had no idea what to expect re: such a base function post op. It's not like it's written down somewhere easy to access (I'm sure there's a Reddit thread somewhere, but I don't Reddit much and it'd be hidden behind... Lots)
So I'll tackle this as what I've noticed pre and post.

First, a description of what peeing was like pre for context.

Basically, as one would expect: bladder pressure and that telltale pinchy feeling by the secondary sphincter muscle. That serves as feedback 1.
Second, when relieving myself, the relaxation of said secondary sphincter. Followed by the sensation of the urine entering the urethra by the 'taint and doing its right angle correction. The latter would feel like slight pressure downwards. That was feedback 2.

It's been 20 days since Q last spoke to us & there's been a lot of speculation as to whether or not we were being left to stand on our own. Last night, Q showed in full form & on fire. Settle, there's a story to be told.

From Sea to Shining Sea, Q is letting us know we're about to learn what Sessions has been doing quietly behind the scenes from the beginning. Something BIG is about to happen and as Q often says, #TrustSessions

In order to understand the story, first we need to understand 38 US Code Section 519 - Supervision of Litigation. Here, we find Sessions, and ONLY Sessions shall supervise ALL litigation unless otherwise authorized by law.

Because there's never been a cringefest I could walk away from, and because I've got some friends here and on FB who've been blocked by #ByeFaleena and can't see her video, I'm gonna grab some coffee, watch, and live tweet. I am unsettled.
Okay. Coffee is being made. Let's get this started. She begins the video by staring boldly into the camera and saying, "Hi. I'm Faleena Hopkins. I'm being attacked." She puts uncomfortably long pauses between these phrases, for impact, I assumed.
"To the point of dangerous. And I beseech the moneygrabbers to back. The fuck. Off." She stares unblinking into the camera. So, we've reached the "My life has been threatened," portion of the program.

A timeline compilation!

Information every thinking American should clearly understand: Foxes in the Demo Hen House exposed....
From 2001 to 2005 there was an ongoing investigation into the Clinton Foundation. A Grand Jury had been impaneled.
Governments from around the world had donated to the “Charity”. Yet, from 2001 to 2003 none of those “Donations” to the Clinton Foundation were declared. Hmmm, now you would think that an honest investigator would be able to figure this out.

(THREAD) This thread discusses the most significant passages in the just-released Comey Memos. I hope you'll read and share.
1/ You can find the Comey Memos here (and everything I discuss in this thread is taken from these memos): documentcloud.org/documents/4442…
2/ In evidentiary terms, the first memo—written after Comey informed Trump of the Steele dossier—is a home run: written *less than five minutes* after the event, which would place its reliability very high in the view of most jurors, whether laypeople or (down the line) Senators.
