I decided to walk through each of the 81 individuals and organizations targeted for more information by House Democrats and explain who they were and why they were significant.

It took a long time. wapo.st/2XDYvuh
But! If you want an alphabetized glossary of central actors in the Russia/Trump Org investigation space, here you go.

Also God bless @gene_fynes for not swearing at me when I dropped a 6,500-word piece on him after 5 p.m.

If Trump's entire presidency were a week, he'd have gone without a named communications director for two full days. wapo.st/2EVlCcp
Here's the whole line-up, excluding the actual communications director, Mr. POTUS.

A fun fact: During Bill Shine's 240-plus day tenure as communications director, there were 13 daily press briefings. wapo.st/2EVlCcp

This new poll from Quinnipiac has perhaps the most brutal numbers for Trump personally that I've seen. wapo.st/2SKxhP9
Most respondents said:
• Trump is not honest
• Trump is less honest than past presidents
• Trump is a bad role model

Oh, and also that they think Trump committed crimes prior to becoming president. washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/…
The dark purple columns here refer to a guy who admitted to Robert Mueller that he lied under oath. wapo.st/2SKxhP9

According to Breitbart, O'Rourke wants to legalize ... oak branches. (h/t @terri_rupar)

Please see @paulsperry_ tweet re: @RepJerryNadler appearance on @OutFrontCNN Free Speech from him is acceptable but not from @realDonaldTrump 🤣 Mueller’s Report isn’t acceptable 🤣 Other Committees found Nothing improper by President BUT, his Oversight abuses power/abuse!
81 People on this list “may” consider the requests for information an abuse of power since most have cooperated with SC Mueller
Additionally, a letter sent to @MickMulvaneyOMB requesting this information is inappropriate, at best. Including additional Committees and their Chairs look more like a Conspiracy to access “Executive Privileged Information.” intelligence.house.gov/uploadedfiles/… Shall I begin O’s archives?

Impeachment is only to create the illusion Trump is unstable, & show this Administration as being in “chaos,” & thereby create doubt in the minds of voters
2/ that Trump is an “incapable” as a President. It steers everyone from his accomplishments and the history-making events, and creates indecision in voters who might be inclined to vote Trump. The Democrats are desperate. If Trump succeeds in getting his Wall, there
3/ will be NO WAY #Democrats can ever win in 2020 without continued massive voter fraud. This means another long, dry spell away from the piggy bank (our government’s currency printing presses) & the money & power it represents. There is only one person in their way: Donald Trump

🤥Wow, it's taking a really long time to think up this lie!!

🔥🔥According to @Maddow, neither the White House nor the GOP Senate has explained why they don't want the FBI to reopen the background investigation of Kavanaugh. #Democrats have been calling for this for days!
💥The president and GOP members of the Senate Judiciary Committee seem extremely desperate to stop this step—which has never been an issue before!

🔥What is going on?

🤥At least give us some reason—& stop deflecting! There are no "Rules of Conduct" for Supreme Court justices!

▶️13 Angry #Democrats, debunked below.

▶️By 13 Angry Democrats, you mean 12 focused Democrats. Focused on their job, which is to prove you are a criminal beyond a reasonable doubt.

▶️They are led by Robert Mueller, who is a registered Republican.

⁉️Cost of Mueller investigation? $22 million? Well in May, Trump said "is soon to be $20 million." Half true, according to politifact:

🏌️‍♂️Again, cost of #OrangeHitler's golf escapades:

💰Over $68 million to date:

⁉️Where is the DNC server? Give me a break!!!

⁉️Where is the RNC server?

⁉️Hillary/Russia investigated? Her emails were investigated: no crimes where committed. Whitewater was investigated for 2,978 days (vs. Mueller's case 397 days) and no evidence of wrongdoing found.

Are you one of those people who's looked back on 2017 and convinced yourself that you haven't achieved anything? Worried about catching up with your mates who seem to have done much better?

Let me tell you a story about #time.

A thread 👇
A long #time ago, back when I was about twelve or thirteen years old, my parents travelled to Uyo.

Before leaving, my mother asked me to prepare Edikang ikong soup so she and my father would eat when they returned.
When I was finished with the soup, it was supposed to look something like this:
