It was the news that brought this private remark to light. And it was a reference to prosecution, not summary jailing.
You can read @heatherscope’s scoop, in context, here: politico.com/story/2019/06/…
And a throwback to when Trump said he’d appoint a special prosecutor and put Clinton in jail: cnn.com/2016/10/09/pol…

NEW: Hope Hicks’ name appears 184 times in Mueller’s report, and she watched firsthand as Trump tried to constrain and undermine the Russia probe.

Today, she becomes the first witness in Dems’ effort to highlight potential obstruction by Trump. politico.com/story/2019/06/…
A MUELLER MYSTERY: Hicks appears all over the report, offering granular details about the president’s actions.

But in two specific instances — ones Hicks played a direct role in — Mueller relies on other people to describe what Hope did. 1/4
In the first, Corey Lewandowski said Trump dictated a note to Jeff Sessions urging him to limit Mueller’s investigation. Lewandowski asked Hicks to type up the handwritten note. But her version of that action doesn’t appear. 2/4

JUST IN: Judiciary Committee Democrats hearing Thursday will focus on *five* of Mueller's obstruction incidents, all of which they say Hope HICKS has knowledge of and may testify to on Wednesday.

Witnesses Thursday include: @rickhasen
@rickhasen The incidents include:

-The Comey firing
-Efforts to remove Mueller
-Efforts to get Sessions to curtail the Mueller probe.
-The public unearthing of the Trump Tower meeting
-Allegations of Trump campaign finance violations
Judiciary Committee aides say they will require the White House to formally assert executive privilege in order to consider it valid during Hicks' testimony.

That means a White House lawyer will be in the room during the interview.

Significant: a Democrat from a swing district backs an impeachment inquiry. Porter is one of the party’s designated frontline members to defend in 2020 >>>
She’s the second frontline Democrat - @RepMalinowski is the other — to support impeachment proceedings.
Lot of talk about how impeachment movement has stalled in recent days, but Porter is the fourth new Democrat to embrace proceedings since Friday.

Thread: Was Paul Manafort Leaking to Hillary?
[h/t @weaverpundit]

1. Rudy Giuliani canceled his widely reported trip to the Ukraine where he planned to reportedly ask the new Ukrainian president for help investigating Biden-related corruption. Why?
2. Who wants to bet Rudy never planned to take make this trip? Was this a stunt to drive a story into the news cycle? Let’s look at what he said regarding that canceled trip:

<quote>
3. "I think I'm walking into a group of people that are enemies of the president, in some cases enemies of the United States, and in one case an already convicted person who has been found to be involved in assisting the Democrats with the 2016 election," ….

House Judiciary Cmte holds 10am hearing on the Trump administration's #FamilySeparation policy. Officials from Border Patrol, ICE, DOJ's immigration courts, & HHS - including Scott Lloyd, who used to oversee the care/custody of migrant kids, will testify. Follow here for updates
From 2017-2018 Lloyd ran the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) in HHS. ORR is responsible for the care of unaccompanied children in US custody. His tenure @ ORR overlapped with the Trump administration's Zero Tolerance/Family Separation policy.
Before working for ORR, Lloyd worked for an anti-abortion organization. During his time at ORR, he blocked multiple abortion requests from young women in his custody, including one minor who was raped. A federal judge overruled him.

Thread: An Alternative Theory on Lieutenant General Michael Flynn—Part III
[h/t @REMFtweets]

1. This is the third part of a continuing series on an alternative view of LTG Flynn. Recommend reading Part I before continuing with this thread.
2. And then Part II, which explored yet another element of the Flynn saga:
3. In this thread, we will take an orthogonal path to divine the mysteries of Flynn by examining his protégé, Ezra Cohen-Watnick. Is he a “Deep State witch,” and if so, what does that make Flynn?

NEW: The White House Communications Agency team that made the TRUMP-KIM JONG-UN coins also made coins with Mar-a-Lago on one side & @POTUS seal, WH & AF1 on the other. They scrapped plans for a Trump Tower/Bedminster coin when we started asking questions. nytimes.com/2018/06/24/us/…
The WH said TRUMP & his staff were not involved in the coins, which they say were paid for by individual White House Communications Agency staff. But watchdogs warn of rules barring gov't resources (emails, staff time, etc.) for promoting private business. nytimes.com/2018/06/24/us/…
Other fun trip coins produced by the White House Communications Agency team feature (1) the Pope and (2) Davos — with the tails sides of both featuring TRUMP & the @POTUS seal.

By now, you probably have seen a viral video of local news anchors across the nation reading from a frighteningly Orwellian script.

You may have asked: What the hell is happening to local news?

The answer is Sinclair.

Who is Sinclair? Read on ...
As someone who has been sparring with Sinclair since 2004, the response to this @Deadspin video is incredible.
So many people are so appalled by what Sinclair is doing. But that didn't discourage Sinclair's biggest fan.
