.@SpeakerPelosi says Trump wants to be impeached. Not true. He’s scared to death.

– Impeachment is a “dirty, filthy, disgusting word." – @realDonaldTrump, 5/30/19
nbcnews.com/politics/donal…
The House derives its impeachment powers directly from the Constitution. Thus, the courts have no jurisdiction. This is why @SpeakerPelosi is making a big mistake by not starting impeachment investigations. Trump can't drag them out in court like he is now, which is their plan.
Trump finally admits “Russia helped him to get elected.” The House should define collusion with a foreign government to get elected as an impeachable offense.

.@SpeakerPelosi is peddling 3 MYTHS:
• Impeachment will make Trump more popular
• Impeachment is worthwhile only if it ends with removing him from office
• Trump will lose in 2020 so voters, rather than Congress, can deliver the consequences he deserves
washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/…
2• “If Trump weren’t president, he’d probably be in jail. That’s the view of a group of hundreds of former federal prosecutors who signed an open letter stating his conduct would warrant criminal obstruction of justice charges if he lived anywhere except in the White House.”
3• “Few Americans have actually read the Mueller report, and walking the country through all the damning material in high-profile public hearings has the potential to hurt Trump far more than the Democrats in Congress.”

“It’s idiotic to think that Trump is too strong to launch formal impeachment proceedings. It’s even more idiotic to assume that once that process begins it’ll drive his numbers up.” – Princeton historian Kevin Kruse
“Pelosi’s arguments against initiating impeachment are so obviously weak. This is starting to feel more like House Dems actually just don’t know what they’re doing.” – Susan Hennessey, executive editor of Lawfare
“Congressional Dems targeted Nixon over Watergate right after his landslide 1972 reelection. His Gallup poll approval rating fell from 65% when Senate hearings began in February 1973 to 39% five months later. Trump’s Gallup approval stands at 42%.”

“The House Dem Caucus is not on a path to impeachment & that’s where Trump wants us to be” – @SpeakerPelosi. She calls on Trump’s family to have an “intervention” but refuses to use the House’s “intervention” tool: impeachment.
Home next week. Call your reps. #Impeachment
“We were getting about 2 to 1 calls that were opposing impeachment. Now the calls are 3 or 4 to 1 we need to be moving forward..it’s getting too out of hand. We’re getting closer & closer to that [impeachment] point.” – @RepKatieHill
“a 'growing majority' of Democrats think #Impeachment is 'inevitable.' “I think [ @SpeakerPelosi ] fully understands that – her caucus understands impeachment's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when"– @RepJohnYarmuth

Good afternoon and welcome to the Shadow brfg, the only brfg in town right now. As a veteran press sec. I know that when you're job involves following the elephant parade, so times there's a lot of clean up to do. Today is one of those days. Let's start at the top.
2. @realDonaldTrump started the day with a little truth bomb tweet. He said he had nothing to do with the Russians helping him to win. Well after the tweet he went to the WH lawn and the lies starting flying like(insert Ratherism here) balloons popping at a porcupine....
3. convention.(editors note...that could also been a Begalaism, hard to remember). I was taking notes on the lies, but they were coming out so fast I may have missed a couple. Let's try it from the top. POTUS said there is no obstruction or collusion. Well Mueller disagrees

Denial, thy name is Donald.
He attacks Mueller as a 'true never-Trumper' after admitting for first time that Russia helped elect him nbcnews.com/politics/donal…
“I helped me get elected," Tr**p said. "Russia had nothing to do with it at all.”

The president*, as impeachment chatter has ramped up following Mueller's statement, also said impeachment is "a dirty, filthy, disgusting word." * illegitimate

Lisez et relisez cette phrase (et le passage souligné en rouge) sur la campagne #Trump et la #Russie du rapport #Mueller, elle revient 2 fois dans les 15 premières pages. De la notion de "collusion" qui est d'ailleurs aussi beaucoup discutée dans les 1ères pages. #teasing
2) Après le résumé du volume 1 sur 7 pages, dont le texte précédent page 5 est extrait, le rapport #Muller narre d'abord ses découvertes sur l'opération de déstabilisation de l'élection US 2016 par l'IRA de Prigozhin, proche de #Poutine, sur les réseaux sociaux.
3) Cette partie très caviardée sur l'ingérence de l'IRA russe sur les réseaux sociaux conclut clairement: l'IRA de Prigozhin viola les lois US contre l'influence étrangère des campagnes mais les campagnes locales de #Trump contactées par l'IRA ignoraient l'origine russe (page 35)

📌If it is proven that Trump knowingly exaggerated his net worth, then journalists need to start using the word ‘lied.’

📌When anyone lies to a bank in order to receive credit or approval to underwrite a securities issue, this is called fraud. forbes.com/sites/mayrarod…
📌Bloomberg presented numerous incidents going back twenty years of Trump “inflating his wealth” when trying to obtain approval for loans or securities underwriting.
bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
📌📌These incidents seriously call into question the quality of Deutsche Bank’s risk management enterprise-wide.

Cohen, Trump’s Ex-Lawyer, Investigated for Bank Fraud in Excess of $20M

John Dean to WH staffers: 'Get out!' “Whatever you do, don’t be me”

Trump is paying (RNC campaign fund) Keith Schiller, John McEntee, Brad Parscale & Gary Coby 15k per month. Hush money?🙄
💰HushMoney2💰

Trump: “I called it my weekend in Moscow; I was with the top level people, both oligarchs & generals & top of the gov’t people. I can’t go further than that, but I will tell you that I met the top people”

Cohen's lawyer says he's talking to Watergate's John Dean

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
