Ivanka on Feb 8, 2019 in her annoying AF baby voice: "The president had no involvement pertaining to my clearance or my husband's clearance, zero.”
#Maddow
From Bob Woodward's “Fear” -->

BANNON: “You’re a goddamn staffer! You walk around this place like you’re in charge. You’re not. You’re on staff!”

IVANKA: “I’m not a staffer! I’ll never be a staffer. I’m the first daughter.”

SCOOP by @ErinBanco: Embassy staffers say Jared Kushner shut them out of his meetings with members of Saudi’s royal court in Riyadh last week – Kushner's first face-to-face meeting with Prince MBS since MBS ordered the killing of Jamal Kashoggi.
#Maddow bit.ly/2SQOV3E
When admin members travel overseas, the embassy helps coordinate the trip and provide security. Not when Kushner meets his pal MBS. The embassy was left in the dark on Jared's schedule & talks with Saudi's and the Saudi govt provided his security.
#Maddow
Recall: In Oct 2017, the same month Jared Kushner reportedly shared classified intel with Saudi Prince MBS on his unannounced trip to Riyadh, a subsidiary of Saudi-linked SoftBank loaned $57M to Kushner Cos for its long-delayed Jersey City project.

NEW: Lawyers claiming ties to Rudy Giuliani approached Michael Cohen after FBI raids, urging him not to leave the joint defense agreement and offering to join his legal team and act as a conduit to Trump's lawyers if Cohen exited the agreement.
#Maddow abcn.ws/2Trr2Er
NEW: Investigators have been probing whether the communications from the Rudy Giuliani-linked lawyers to Michael Cohen was intended to influence Cohen or to implicitly dangle a potential pardon from Trump in front of him, both of which are illegal.
#Maddow
ICYMI on Apr 20, 2018 [right after Trump hired Rudy Giuliani on the heels of the Cohen raid], Trump's pal Alan Dershowitz: Trump likely hired Giuliani to send a lifeline to Cohen and encourage him to ‘stay strong’ ... “A very, very smart move.”

RECEIPTS: Michael Cohen gave House Intel documents showing edits by Trump attorneys [directions to lie?] of the false statement he delivered to Congress in 2017 about Trump Org's pursuit of the Moscow Tower project into 2016.
by @mkraju @jeremyherb #Maddow cnn.it/2VDKLy3
I'm betting there's much more to come based on the suitcases and suitcases of documents [presumably] Michael Cohen wheeled in with him for his House Intel testimony today. 😈
Last week, Jay Sekulow denied Michael Cohen's allegations that he and other Trump attorneys edited Cohen's testimony.

The stupidity of Trump's attorneys not realizing that Cohen, who kept EVERYTHING, wouldn't have retained copies of their edits.

THREAD: Body Language Analysis No. 4375: Donald Trump, Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner, and Security Clearances • • #Nonverbal #EmotionalIntelligence #BodyLanguage #BodyLanguageExpert #IvankaTrump #JaredKushner #SecurityClearance #DonaldTrump
1/ President Trump reportedly pressured John Kelly (then, his Chief of Staff) as well as Don McGahn (then, White House Counsel) to issue Top Secret security clearances to both his daughter Ivanka and her husband, Jared Kushner, ...
2/ ... despite Kelly's and McGahn's recommendations against it. After the White House Personnel Security Office raised concerns - and both Kelly's and McGahn's refusals - Trump overruled them, granting clearances to his daughter and son-in-law himself.

President Trump seems to have blatantly lied about his involvement in Jared Kushner’s security clearance process during an interview last month nyti.ms/2EBLOZu
In this clip from a recent interview, @IvankaTrump claims her father “had no involvement pertaining to my clearance *or my husband’s clearance*, zero.”

Tonight, the Times reports her husband wouldn’t even have his security clearance but for her father. 🤔
Watch this clip. If the New York Times report about Trump ordering officials to give Jared Kushner a security clearance is true, then Ivanka Trump is a stone cold liar.

>>> 🚨Overruling the CIA, Trump directly ordered COS John Kelly to grant his son-in-law Jared #Kushner a TOP-SECRET security clearance. (Sometimes mobsters do give direct orders; shocking a US General followed them) nytimes.com/2019/02/28/us/… h/t @yashar
Trump’s decision so troubled senior administration officials that COS John Kelly wrote a contemporaneous internal memo to document he had been ORDERED to give #Kushner the top-secret security clearance. WH counsel McGahn also wrote a memo of CIA & others' concerns about Kushner.
Ivanka's truth quotient: ZERO:
>> "The president had no involvement pertaining to my clearance or my husband's clearance—zero”

(NYT reports today Trump "ordered" Kelly to overrule CIA and grant Kushner top-secret security clearance. See above)

THREAD: Some notes and thoughts from reading "Fear" yesterday. Firstly, as @HeathaT points out, it pays to collaborate on these projects: Bannon, Porter and Cohn seem major sources and all come off pretty well.
Some anecdotes: When Bannon was first asked to chat to Trump about a presidential run in 2010, he replied: "I don't have time for fucking nonsense...this guy's not serious.
In the subsequent meeting, Trump is told it's a problem that history shows him to be "very pro-choice."
Trump's response: "What does that mean?"
He is told what pro-choice means.
"That can be fixed," he says. "You just tell me how to fix that. I'm—what do you call it? Pro-life."

The accusations sending tremors through the Catholic Church are a concerted and dubious attack by ultraconservatives on Pope Francis.
