@RRalstonAgile 22/ I just saw this saying that Katie Johnson's allegations led to the other side creating Pizzagate. Trump tends to accuse others of things about himself. mobile.twitter.com/i/moments/1026…
23/ Now that Epstein has been arrested I wonder if Tucker Carlson is confused about what Epstein did wrong. Tucker claimed to not know what facilitation of child rape was in radio recordings that I compiled some things from here:
27/ Here are some videos of Katie Johnson for those who want to watch them. Warning that these may be tough to watch for many people. Thanks again to all those keeping sunlight on these cases.
28/ I don't know how any good person can read the stuff about Epstein, Trump's praise for Epstein, and Trump's own words I put above and believe that Trump is even close to a good person. This picture makes me sick to my stomach. It is from Trump's now closed company.
29/ I commented on that, which was basically a Trump ad, here:
30/ Of course this isn't all there is on Trump. In case you found this thread useful, I put a bunch of my threads all in one main thread and made it my pinned tweet here:
31/ Thanks to @Audryt for this info I hadn’t seen that after he found Paris Hilton beautiful at 12 Trump decided she should be the first model for his modeling agency even though she was still only 15 and her parents didn’t approve. This would have ...
32/ ... been about 1996, or around 6 years before Trump said Epstein was terrific and liked them young. Trump and Epstein seem a lot alike, other than things like Epstein being smarter. What was that about Trump being a Godly man? If God was a pedophile, I guess.
33/ I decided to propose a challenge for some Trump supporters:
34/ I see that the tweet I linked to in 10/ Is unavailable, but @berta_legas provided this. Thanks Berta.
@berta_legas 35/ Thank you to @RRalstonAgile for providing a link to this disturbing thread with a draft complaint against Epstein. The thread includes rape details and mentions that a judge allowed Epstein to subpoena abortion records.
@berta_legas@RRalstonAgile 36/ Acosta has now quit and Trump has shown that he was on Epstein's side (or at least the side of those who were happy to be protected from publicity) and not the victim's side when Epstein got that sweetheart deal. Here is some video:
37/ Trump said:
“He [Acosta] made a deal that people were happy with, and then 12 years later they’re not happy with it. You'll have to figure all of that out."
Trump surely didn't mean the victims or people who cared about the victims when he said "people" here.
38/ I find it really pitiful that even in 2019 Trump does not get this. Trump supporters support a man who does not even comprehend why anybody would be upset that a serial rapist and pedophile got a sweetheart deal. They want this man deciding the laws and enforcement of laws.
39/ This isn't about pedophilia, but as far as that video in 36/, Trump said about Acosta, "He's Hispanic, which I so admire." Just my personal view on why Trump would say that:
@danielsgoldman I hope people know that this isn’t the first time that Trump has tried to overturn a lawful election through revolution. He did it in 2012, but failed to get anybody killed that time. This time he did get people killed.
That time the “lie” was that Romney won the popular vote:
🔹“We should have a revolution in this country!”
🔹“Let’s fight like hell and stop this great and disgusting injustice!”
🔹“revolution!”
🔹“We should march on Washington and stop this travesty.”
Sick that Republican Senators will help Trump do more.
@danielsgoldman 3/ How many coup attempts is too many for a Democrat? How many coup attempts is too many for a Republican?
Trump has already tried 2 coup attempts (the 1st failing because he couldn’t get it off the ground). How many coup attempts before there should be consequences?
1/ I would love it if the Democratic prosecutors for Trump’s impeachment trial went full bore on offense right out of the gate with something like:
2/ “We will be presenting our case to you, the American people. Technically the jury is in this room, but when this is over you are likely to see that the majority of the Republican Senators here are spineless people who don’t care if Trump is guilty.”
3/ “You, the American people, will get to see the evidence showing that Trump is guilty. If the Republican Senators choose to ignore the evidence and vote to acquit Trump because that is what they would do no matter what, you get to be their jury when they run for re-election.”
A group of rich businessmen are driving through the desert when they happen upon a man dying of thirst.
Some want to leave the man, some want to take him with them and nurse him back to health. but the majority agrees to give him 3 bottles of water.
2/ When the thirsty man hears he is getting 3 bottles of water, and sees them, he knows it isn’t enough, but he is so looking forward to that water, as he had thought he was going to die any minute.
3/ Then 1 rich businessmen decides to upstage the others. He tells the thirsty man that he will get 10 bottles of water, not 3.
2/ @JonathanTurley then took that and decided to make a whole thread attacking @PreetBharara based on Turley cutting off the “reasonable conclusion” and replacing it with his own “now clear”:
3/ Notice that in his 2nd tweet in his thread Professor Turley relies on his apparent lie in his first tweet to do it again, falsely claiming that @PreetBharara declared “Period” with no room for doubt. Clearly not true:
(THREAD) I see that Trumpsters still don’t understand how the OLC memo saying presidents cannot be indicted was relevant to the Mueller Report, or they fake that they don’t understand. I think the report was clear about this for part 2.
1/ Paraphrasing, the explanation in the Mueller Report comes down to:
“If we determine there clearly was no crime we will say so. If there was a crime, we will not say that, because the OLC memo means that we will not determine there was a crime, regardless of evidence.”
2/ That does not contradict Mueller explaining that he was not saying that, but for the OLC memo, they would say Trump committed a crime. The OLC memo created a barrier, such that they would not say Trump committed a crime, even if the evidence was overwhelming.
@SunshineNikki4@RickkidtchThoer 92/ Another example of the kind of people Trump has to get support from. @pax4pax responded (but not directly) to a tweet I made mentioning that there was a quid pro quo by Trump's team, by claiming that this was not reality. I responded here:
93/ That response from me included a pic of Trump ogling a minor child. @pax4pax claims to be a Christian, and they criticize people, yet @pax4pax decided that they wanted to defend Trump's pedophilic actions. That is above my response here:
@pax4pax 94/ Later @pax4pax claimed to be a Constitutionalist, even as they do whatever they can for a guy who falsely claims that article 2 allows him to do whatever he wants. @pax4pax tried similar, claiming that Trump did nothing wrong because he makes policy:
