Correct.
Friends, you might see some misguided memes (see @glennbeck's tweet below) impugning @AOC's Chief of Staff, Saikat Chakrabarti (@saikatc), of being some sort of a Nazi sympathizer, b/c he is wearing a T with Subhas Chandra Bose on it. This is a heinous smear. 1/
Saikat Chakrabarti (@saikatc) is not only @AOC's CoS, he is also her social media Svengali, so the temptation to smear him runs high, but let us keep it to opposition to @AOC's policy initiatives. Subhas Chandra Bose was a hero in India's struggle for freedom from the British. 2/
Bose's connection with Hitler and Japanese is complicated and not at all what the smears imply. He met with Hitler once, and his one and only interest was to collaborate with anyone who would help to free India from the British -- like the Allies collaborating with Stalin. 3/x

Called it! Yesterday.
No matter how he spins it, supporters will only care about the actual results on the ground. If wall/fence gets built in all the key places (i.e. if it stops the onslaught of illegal immigration), that's all that matters. Nobody cares how it's funded.
Even if Democrats only fund 50 miles of the wall/fence, it establishes the principle. Money was never the issue. It was always about building consensus. Just as you can't go to war with only one political party supporting it, you can't build the wall with one party support.

An insightful thread on @IlhanMN.
On a personal note, I have enormous respect and affection for Muslim women. Relentless persecution of them by their own is unbelievably diabolical. So it is especially painful when those who have an opportunity to do so much good choose not to.
Truth be told, @IlhanMN and @RashidaTlaib can be quite transformational if they can rise above their petty biases. They have an opportunity to make an enormous difference for the Muslim community in the U.S. and by implication reshape the dialogue perhaps for the world. 1/
All they have to do (even if it's hard for them, God only knows why considering how good America has been to them) is to show unequivocally that Muslim leaders, at least the ones elected to Congress, love America and ALL Americans. If they do, they will have my full support. 2/2

1. Kumbh Mela (India)

Thousands of Hindu devotees take dips at Sangam, the confluence of three sacred rivers, the Yamuna, the Ganges and the mythical Saraswati, during the Kumbh Mela Festival, in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh state, India.
2. What you see in the above picture is just a very, very, small part of the gathering. No single picture can possibly capture the size of the gathering during this festival, which takes place only once every 12 years.
3. The festival is the largest peaceful gathering in the world, and considered as the "world's largest congregation of religious pilgrims." An estimated 120 million people visited the last Kumbh Mela in over a two-month period, including over 30 million on a single day.

@AOC claims that at the Green New Deal FAQ was “an early draft” accidentally posted. Someone sent me the information from the PDF: It was created by AOC’s Chief of staff Saikat Chakrabarti at 10:09.
@AOC Did Chakrabarti accidentally create a PDF of a draft and then accidentally post it? Did AOC accidentally keep up the FAQ for hours and hours while critics were dissecting it and forget to mention it was a draft?
Some people have emailed to accuse me of using a doctored and fake FAQ in my piece. It was not. All the quotes are in there. thefederalist.com/2019/02/07/ten…

Look what I found: @NPR has the original FAQs on the #GreenNewDeal from @AOC including the "unwilling to work" provision and thing about... cows. The document IDs the author of the FAQs: "Saikat Chakrabarti" (@saikatc), @AOC's Chief of Staff.

Just this morning, @saikatc said on Twitter that "Some of these early drafts got leaked."
This could hardly be called a "leak" either:

From the beginning, Zionists advocated a "Jewish State" not just in #Palestine, but also in #Jordan, southern #Lebanon, and the #GolanHeights as well.
As it will be proved from the quotes below:
#ICC4Israel #EthnicCleaning #Occupation #BDS #Gaza
Source:palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈
#Palestinians are not indigenous to #Palestine👈This propaganda has no other purpose than 2 further dehumanize Palestinians & justify #Israel’s ongoing ethnic cleansing & murder
In #BenGurion own words👇😡you'll see how that outrageous claim is far removed from historical reality
“We must expel the Arabs and take their places…”~#DavidBenGurion
Born in 1886 as David Green (Gruen) in Plonsk, #Poland. He is considered one of the three founding figures of Zionism beside #ChaimWeizmann & #Herzl.

Cú Chulainn is believed to be an incarnation of the god #Lugh, who is also his father! His mother is the mortal Deichtine, sister of Conchobar mac Nessa, the King of #Ulster who ruled from #NavanFort near #Armagh. #CúChulainn #Irishmyths #Irishlegends #FolkloreThursday
Born Sétanta, Cú Chulainn gained his name as a child, after killing Culann's fierce guard-dog in self-defence & offered to take its place until a replacement could be reared! Used a standing stone or by driving a sliotar down its throat with his hurley! #FolkloreThursday
Cathbad the druid announced one day that anyone who drew arms would have everlasting fame! So Cú Chulainn only 7 years old, asked for arms! But Cathbad grieved because he had not finished his prophecy-the warrior who took arms that day would have a short life! #FolkloreThursday

(1) President Trump's first state visit at the White House: Day 1 with the Macrons.

A #TeamTrump #PhotoThread like the others you can access via my pinned tweet. We have the best state visits, don't we folks? #MAGA #KeepAmericaGreat
(2) Day 1 of the state visit will be remembered for the private dinner at the iconic Mount Vernon home of George Washington. There were also meetings and the planting of a very special tree from France.
(3) France's AF1 landed at Joint Base Andrews and President and Mrs Macron received a full ceremonial military welcome. President Macron spoke to the media.
