Trump just declared a #FAKENationalEmergency at the border. Trump is going around Congress, the will of the people, & abusing the powers of the presidency to build his hateful wall. There’s no time to waste - it’s time to mobilize to defend our democracy. Here’s what you can do:
First, Call your MoCs NOW and demand they act immediately to stop this illegal, anti-democratic power grab in its tracks by using their powers under the National Emergencies Act to reject this #FakeTrumpEmergency and immediately launch an investigation: ☎️ 1-855-980-2355 ☎️
Sign up to march with us, @MoveOn, and more to protest this abuse of power rooted in hate here: act.indivisible.org/signup/reject-… and text MOBILIZE to 977-79 for updates.

Read our resource for more on what this means and what Congress can do: indivisible.org/resource/trump…

URGENT THREAD: Across the country, Republicans have used their power to retaliate for Democratic electoral gains. We saw it in WI & MI with the #GOPPowerGrab, and now the GOP is coming after voting rights in Arizona TODAY. #VotingMattersAZ #AZVotingRights indivisible.org/resource/defen…
In the 2018 election, Arizona’s early voting totals surpassed 2014 total voter turnout! With huge surges in Democratic early voting, Republicans in #AZLeg are now retaliating by trying to impose barriers on early voting.
.@MichelleUgenti (LD 23) has introduced three bills to make it harder to vote early: #SB1046, #SB1072, and #SB1090.

UPDATE: The conference committee negotiating a final funding package for the Dept of Homeland Security (DHS) has its first meeting today. Not much will come out of today's meeting, but they must come to an agreement by Fri, 2/8. (More on conference cmtes: indivisible.org/resource/legis…)
There are 3 likely scenarios that will play out over the next week and a half:

#1: A deal w/ additional “border security” funding for Trump’s inhumane policies & agenda, like caging families. It may not have the votes to pass Congress, and we wouldn’t want a bad deal to pass.
Scenario #2: No deal emerges through the conference committee, but a separate effort emerges where Republicans try to use Dreamers as bargaining chips to pay for Trump’s demands for more cages, agents, and the border wall—something that immigration groups broadly oppose.

Alright, friends. Friday is almost over and both the House and Senate have passed a bill to reopen the government until Feb 15, with NO funding for @realDonaldTrump's wall.

After 35 days, the longest shutdown in our country’s history will come to an end.

Why? Because of you. 1/
@realDonaldTrump For the last 35 days, @realDonaldTrump held gov't employees and immigrant families hostage. All because of a hateful campaign promise to his base to build a border wall.

Today, Trump caved. And he agreed to reopen the government without getting a single $ for the wall. 2/
@realDonaldTrump Let’s be clear: Trump isn’t the only GOPer to blame here. @senatemajldr and Senate Republicans have run interference for him on the Hill, on Fox News, on the Sunday shows… wherever they can.

Because it is their agenda too. 3/

The President has every right to Declate a National Emergency or any other damn thing he wants. Where were the “Constitutional” naysayers when Obama declared suddenly #FAKENationalEmergency DACA? When he paid #Iran in a back room deal? The #Illegals are bringing in TUBERCULOSIS,
2/ BUBONIC PLAGUE, LEPROSY, malaria, DIPTHERIA, MEASLES (now an Emergency in Oregon and Houston) Mumps, STD’s, HIV, POLIO, & diseases America has vaccinated against for 60 years, & virtually eliminated. This is not just a Health Emergency, this is a Weapon of Mass Destruction.
3/ Our own CDC projects a 50% tuberculosis rate if Immigration is left unchecked. Imagine what that does to an economy just getting back to normal, after 8 years of being held under water. There is nothing illegal about what Trump is doing. There was PLENTY illegal about what

☎️Lorber☎️

DonJr.'s blocked phone calls ahead of the 2016 TT meeting went to longtime Trump fam friends: Brian France & Howard Lorber.

Lorber is one of Trump's BFFs, one of his top advisers, big fundraiser & a long-term partner with Trump in trying to develop a TT in Moscow.
☎️Lorber☎️

📌Lorber’s Vector Group made a "seven-figure" investment in Steven Calk’s bank.

📌Calk’s bank loaned Manafort 16M in mortgage loans.

📌Of course Lorber sued Calk 💰💦

📌Calk and Lorber were both named to Trump’s economic advisory council on Aug. 5, 2016.
☎️Lorber4☎️

Correction: Lorber donated 235k to Trump’s campaign.

Michael Cohen’s brother Bryan works for Douglas Elliman—Lorber is chairman

Barr confirmation vote delayed after Democrats raise Mueller report concerns

Is Steve Schmidt the new Tad Devine [Manafort & Bernie]?

#Trump is going to speak in the Rose Garden any minute now. Is he going to lie a bunch about reopening the government? Is he just going to yell "no collusion! witch hunt!" over and over again? Both? Stay tuned!
Oh hell, #Trump is going to take questions too. This is going to be a sh*tshow.
#Trump is running about a half hour late. I wonder if he's spent this whole time on the phone with Ann Coulter, begging for permission to cave?

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
