“Very Surprised” by Don Jr subpoena, Trump goes off the rails w/ lies about Trump Tower Meeting & ‘Russia hoax’ etc: “MY SON WAS TOTALLY EXONERATED BY MUELLER. Mueller Report was perfect. That’s the Bible. It totally exonerated me. Nobody says Russia anymore. There was no crime.”
So Trump called Don Jr's Trump Tower Meeting a "nothing" mtg again today. I wrote how this propaganda framing masks its pivotal significance for Russia launching its election attack, which began w/in days of June 9, after they were assured Trump was game. medium.com/@PaulaChertok/…
Trump calls the Trump Tower Meeting "nothing" b/c he wants to focus only about the information FROM Russia. But the meeting's significance is the info Russia GOT. Don Jr made clear he wanted their help. Kremlin launched the Wikileaks part of the attack knowing Trump was on board.

😒Lost in translation. Putin chose his words carefully to achieve this conflation. He began, Mueller found “NO TRACE” which u expect means NO RUSSIAN TRACE=NO INTERFERENCE. But unexpectedly said “COLLUSION”—conflating interference w/ collusion & echoing Trump language+propaganda!
SO unnerving media missed Putin's linguistic bait+switch conflation, again denying the attack! He said Mueller proved "absolutely no traces of collusion," then launched into RUSSIAN INTERFERENCE was a fake. @business got so confused, even mistranslated it! bloomberg.com/news/videos/20…
Watch Putin conflate interference w/ collusion (ala Trump). 00:29—"Mueller proved no trace of collusion w/ Russia…INTERFERENCE is nonsense." @business gets the translation wrong!🤯 Putin even adds NO GOVT interference. Another big lie. Indicted GRU = govt bloomberg.com/news/videos/20…

🤡Trump: No I didn't ask Barr to investigate Russia probe origins. I didn't know about it, no. But it's a great thing. I'm so proud of our Attorney General. Because the Russia thing was a hoax. Even Mueller said so. He said "no collusion" and he's not my friend.
🤔"I did not know about it, no."
Trump's formulaic denial about:
–Barr investigating Russia investigation origins
–Michael Cohen paying hush money before election
–Trump Tower Meeting w/ Russians offering election help
–Flynn talking sanctions w/ Kislyak

#TrumpDenies #TrumpLies
Today Trump absurdly denied asking Barr to investigate Russia probe origins. But Barr admitted as much to @KamalaHarris, as she grabbed him by the "grappling with the word 'suggest'" in Senate testimony.

Media, do your job please. Hold GOP feet to fire‼️

Lavrov uses some telling Trump language in meeting w/ Pompeo —"Both sides," "Let's see what happens." Imitation is the best form of flattery, and flattery works with Trump. But Russia is the off-the-rails aggressor—in Ukraine, Syria, EU, US. Appeasement only emboldens aggressors.
US media is reporting Pompeo "warned" Russia about meddling. At presser Pompeo said he hopes Russia will demonstrate "these types of activities are a thing of the past." Not even a slap on the wrist! Who thinks rewarding Putin will stop Kremlin aggression??
😎Ok, that’s that then! Putin apes Trump, says “Mueller Report confirms no collusion” with Russia. Translation: Let’s forgive & forget that the Kremlin tipped a US election for a pliable authoritarian narcissist fraud now dividing & weakening America. #Russians4MAGA #winning

#Trump en meeting dans le Montana suggère son approbation au représentant Gianforte pour avoir violenté et cassé les lunettes de @JacobsBen journaliste du @guardian. En pleine polémique sur la tribune du @nytimes rappel: pour #Trump, c'est 1 guerre à mort contre le #journalisme.
2) Et dans le même meeting, #Trump a accusé le @nytimes de haute trahison pour avoir publié la tribune anonyme contre lui. Il n'a cessé de faire huer la #presse par 1 salle chauffée à blanc...
3) Cette "radicalisation" du discours de #Trump sur la #presse interroge sur l'avenir des relations entre citoyens US et #journalisme, à court terme (la campagne électorale à venir n'est-elle pas celle de tous les dangers pour des reporters à qui il accroche 1 cible dans le dos?)

If Trump won by illegal means, can he be indicted or impeached?

Pecker & Howard corroborated Cohen thus implicating Trump in a federal crime.

Lordy Howard has tapes!

Perkier has a safe full of secret Trump Docs!

Davis: there are more revelations to come.🍿

When it rains it pours. ⛈️

Wednesday was an outrageously busy day in #TrumpRussia news & revelations, so we did our best to summarize for you.

This THREAD is formatted as:

🔹A) What happened?
🔹B) Why is it important?

In conclusion, we remind you what YOU can do to help.
1A) The Senate Judiciary Committee released all transcripts/documents (some redactions) from its investigation into Russian interference and potential Trump campaign coordination. judiciary.senate.gov/press/releases…
1B) The release of 1000s of pages casts light on the Trump Tower mtg, including coordination of stories by attendees, inconsistencies in Don Jr.'s testimony & hints of Trump's knowledge of the mtg & involvement in the false story Don Jr. initially put out. nytimes.com/2018/05/16/us/…

THREAD: Mueller has **at least FOUR DOZEN questions** on an huge array of subjects he wants to ask Trump to probe his ties w/#Russia🇷🇺 & whether he committed #ObstructionOfJustice‼️ 1/

#MuellerIsComing

nytimes.com/2018/04/30/us/…
The NYTimes **obtained the list of Qs that Mueller wants to ask Trump during an interview.🤨

It's VERY hard to imagine that details of the ACTUAL questions would leak, unless the negotiations btwn Mueller & Trump's lawyers have BROKEN DOWN (as I was told a few months ago).🤔 2/
Overall, Mueller's open-ended Q's attempt to penetrate Trump's thinking (good luck!), to understand Trump's motivation for his crazed Twitter posts & to examine Trump's relationships w/his family and his closest advisers.🤨 3/
