BREAKING: In a 5-4 decision, the Supreme Court will not allow Louisiana to enforce its abortion-provider admitting-privileges law while the case against it proceeds. Chief Justice John Roberts joined the more liberal justices in granting the stay.
Justice Kavanaugh was the only justice to explain his vote tonight. No other justices joined his dissent. documentcloud.org/documents/5732…

Interesting development in the NY AG's case against the Trumps and Trump Foundation —>
Back in that period last spring when Giuliani joined Trump's legal team, there was talk about Marc Mukasey joining the legal team as well. He ended up, however, not doing so at the time:
A little scoopage here —> Longtime former Giuliani law partner Marc Mukasey has left Greenberg Traurig, where he held a key role at the global law firm, to start a boutique firm — and one of his first new clients is Donald Trump. buzzfeednews.com/article/chrisg…

I am imagining a scene where a Wyden staffer has been sitting by the clerk's office for the past two days waiting for S. 419 to be filed.
Boo.
In an apparent effort to honor Sen. @RonWyden's new bill, I got some new followers.

1) There's so much nonsense flying around right now -- speculation, non-news, fake news, distorted news. What is actually going on?

Let's take a few minutes to do a thread.
2) The non-news that the mainstream media wants you to focus on:
* Negative coverage of President Trump (e.g. drive to impeach him)
* Extremist members of Congress (appeals for attention)
* Irrelevant entertainment stories (distract with sex appeal)
3) Let's start with Guantanamo Bay.

This is an old @DeptofDefense photo (July 2004) showing something called "Combatant Status Review Tribunal Notice to detainees."

What is that?

BIG if true:

“Montgomery claims that Obama administration officials illegally spied on citizen and candidate Donald Trump. Among those Montgomery identifies are CIA Director John Brennan and the Director of National Intelligence James Clapper”

Whistleblowers bring PAIN!!!
2) This story has now resurfaced involving CIA whistleblower Dennis Montgomery, who alleged in 2017 that Mueller was involved in a secret program that was developed & deployed to conduct illegal surveillance on millions of Americans.

The program was supposedly called The Hammer.

CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS & ENTIRE FISA COURT WILL BE IMPEACHED

1) Speculation, but makes sense if you follow me.
Per Q 11/9/18:
A) How can arrests occur prior to removing the corruption from the DOJ & FBI?
>They can't. See THE PLAN below.
#QAnon #Sealedindictments
2) B) How can arrests occur prior to safely securing a majority in the SUPREME COURT [CONSTITUTION - RULE OF LAW]
>They can't. See THE PLAN below.
C) What is the role of the SENATE?
>To confirm appointments and to hold impeachment trials.
Role of GOODLATTE?
#QAnon #MAGA
3) >Chairman of House Judiciary Committee (Oversight of DOJ, FBI, Federal Judiciary… BUT ALSO MOST COMMONLY THE COMMITTEE WHERE IMPEACHMENT PROCEEDINGS IN THE HOUSE ORIGINATE).

Chief Justice John Roberts "rebuked" Trump.

Now we can all forget about how his Court destroyed the Voting Rights Act, legalized partisan gerrymanders, upheld the Muslim ban, will restrict abortion even further, and has 2 out of 9 of its justices credibly accused of rape.
Roberts is an *extremely* smart person. He knows exactly what he was doing with his "rebuke".
SCOTUS's reputation was damaged by the nomination of Kavanaugh.

Roberts is *desperate* to preserve the Court's reputation so that it can continue to advance GOP policy goals; issuing a statement or two meekly condemning Trump's bullying is apparently a good way to do that.

The Suffocation of Democracy

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.
