Uproar!!!

📌Mueller report will be released in the afternoon, lightly redacted, revealing detailed look at O of J probe.

📌Barr & Rosenstein will give a press conf & deliver the partisan Barr Report 2.0 at 9:30am edt

📌Mueller not invited.
💣MuellerEve2💣

DOJ will present MR w/out certain redactions available to certain members of Congress/staff "in an appropriate setting."

Barr briefed & had numerous convos w/ WH re MR so they had time to strategize & prep a rebuttal while withholding it from American public.
💣MuellerEve3💣

The delay was necessary so Trump’s lawyers could strategize & prepare the rebuttal & control the narrative ahead of public release.

Nadler is deeply troubled to hear the WH was briefed abt the MR b/4 congress or the American people.

The media is *the* platform of choice for US officials trying to coerce a reversal in #Syria policy -- the reality is more complex & less promising.

My latest for @politico, questions durability of #America's presence in #Syria vis-a-vis #ISIS's future:

politico.com/magazine/story…
@politico (1) A long-term U.S. presence in al-Tanf depends heavily on #Jordan's support.

But the reliability of that support remains uncertain, given #Amman's doubling investment in ties with #Assad's #Syria & pursuit of renewed trade links.

Have we got that assurance? I don't think so.
@politico (2) For now, #Trump has permitted a "residual force" in #Syria on the condition that it convinces EU allies to (a) stay & (b) expand their presence.

As of today, (a) is possible but (b) is an outright No.

That means the status quo, which we know #Trump opposes altogether.

"Individual 2."
The text of the information points to a man named Felix Sater.

Cohen's letter, written in August 2017 to the Senate and House Intelligence Committees, says, "I primarily communicated with the Moscow-based development company...through a

The Moscow-born Sater was the managing director of the Bayrock Group, a real estate conglomerate, while the 👉🏼Trump SoHo building in Manhattan was being built.

Sater also has a more colorful past. He was also an FBI informant in the late 1990s after pleading guilty to a $40 million 👉🏼stock fraud scheme put together by the Russian mafia.

At one point in 2015, Sater told Cohen, "Our boy (Mr. Trump) can become president of the USA and we

What if it wasn’t completely up to him because he owes so much money to Russian oligarchs that the only way he could repay them and Putin (and remain alive) was to destroy American democracy from the inside as fake POTUS? 🤔
Might as well post the receipts since I have them...
