Gee I fvcking wonder where they’re all getting the idea from
Trump and his toadies don’t come out and say it all together. They just talk about “invasion”, say “Real America” is at risk, blame it on Democrats, and constantly bring up a few famously Jewish Democratic donors. And they let the shooters do the xenophobic math.
Welp. Remind me never to give the man credit for anything. Here it is, a few days before the midterms - and after the Tree of Life attack and mail bomber.

Imagine comparing Alex Jones to John Lewis and thinking you had a point
This isn’t complicated. Judging people for how they’re born is different than judging people for hateful behavior. But there’s a certain kind of bigot who thinks it sounds smart to pretend otherwise.
RW "free speech advocates": if you think about it, everyone in this picture is a civil rights hero 🧐

I want to shout this from the rooftops.
washingtonpost.com/outlook/2019/0…
America and England fought the Nazis’ military but not their white supremacist ideology. And now that ideology is threatening our democracies. This brings up so many important points.
Our governments didn’t fight the ideology because they didn’t want to. Because the ideology was ours too.

I was going to go through Timothy Snyder’s rules for dealing with a tyrant one by one.

But Trump is accusing his political and legal opponents of baby murder and an attempted coup.

I need to skip to Rule 17.
This is the language that precedes political violence and despotism. It should have alarms blaring. And I’m not sure what scares me more, his words or the level of indifference from the media and a lot of the public.
Of course, these dangerous words aren’t a new thing. Trump and his lackeys have been trotting these particular ones out for a while now. We’re getting used to his “enemy of the people” talk. And he’s been talking about invasion and infestation since day 1 of his campaign.

Twitter released the tweets of another 418 russian accounts on January 31.
I'm going to use this thread to take a look at the information they gave us about these accounts.
And talk about other bots and trolls you can find using this data.
blog.twitter.com/en_us/topics/c…
Of the 418 accounts 1 was a double, @CovfefeNationUS it was already included in the last batch of accounts.
One was not actually suspended until I reminded them.
2 of them had active backup accounts at the time of publication of the data.
around 320 of the accounts I had tweeted about a lot. So i'm not going to bother going back over them.
I found them right after NBC put out the 1st batch of tweets from the russian trolls.
They were bots, and most of the data about what they did is unavailable.

How #Trump became a #Soviet/#Russian Agent
1. #Trump's first known visit to #Soviet and #Moscow in 1987 looks to be part of a pattern. The #SteeleDossier says that the #Kremlin had been cultivating# Trump for “at least five years” before 2016 elections, meaning it asserts a beginning in 2011 or 2012.
2.The #SovietUnion was interested in #Trump three decades earlier. The top level of the #Soviet diplomatic service arranged his 1987 #Moscow visit.

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
