"Trump's extraordinary promotion of Putin" — In move to soften #Russia's pariah status, #Trump advocated publicly & privately for #Putin at #G7 … amid warnings that Russia is actively trying to interfere in the 2020 presidential election. washingtonpost.com/politics/trump… h/t @McFaul
Spot-on description of Trump as #Putin’s advocate, apologist & promoter at #G7, working hard to soften #Russia’s well-deserved pariah status.
😲Trump even tried to redefine G7 as NOT a gathering of democracies. And became combative about democracy having no special weight‼️
There’s no good reason to reward Putin now. #Russia’s only become a worse pariah since annexing Crimea in 2014. Think Ukraine, Syria, Skripal, election ops.

We’d be fools not to view Trump inviting Putin to G7 as also an invitation to help him in 2020, as he did in 2016. #Maddow
“Orwellian spectacle” is a good way to describe Trump’s screed about Putin “outsmarting” Obama. It captures the deliberate nature of his propaganda, burying facts in absurdities. Doubly absurd as he rewards Russia’s crime by blaming the guy who punished it.nymag.com/intelligencer/…
@jonathanchait NEW DETAILS: #Trump lobbying for #Putin caused heated clash w/ allies. Merkel, Johnson & Trudeau were firm: as long as #Russia is still in #Crimea, joining #G7 was not up for consideration. Merkel & BoJo also argued being anti-democratic was disqualifying. msn.com/en-us/news/wor…

🚨‼️Orwellian Trump regime is literally redefining US citizenship! New definition of “Residence” denies #citizenship to children born to govt employees & military stationed abroad. Also denies citizenship to children BORN IN US if mothers don’t meet new residency rules.
🚨The Trump regime goes there, folks. #Immigration demagoguery isn't about "illegal" immigrants. It's about engineering a more white society. They're literally redefining #citizenship—even if US born. It's a racist and fundamentally unAmerican agenda. uscis.gov/sites/default/…
Gaslighting Ken Cuccinelli tells @DanaBashCNN he’s “offended” by use of word “targeting” in characterizing new USCIS #citizenship policy that denies automatic citizenship to kids born to US military stationed abroad. He claims it’s only a “paperwork change.” #immigration

🚨‼️Cuccinelli is a monster >> Citizenship & Immigration Services Ends Medical Deferred Action, a program allowing legal migrants to stay in US for life-saving medical treatment. They're now being referred to ICE for deportation and death. 33 days notice. npr.org/2019/08/27/754…
Rachel @Maddow just covered the most inhumane of all Trump’s immigration policies—ending Medical Deferment, sending critically ill children like Jonathan Sanchez to be deported and certain death. This quote is from the @NPR story linked to above. Do listen to his voice. #maddow
@maddow @NPR Maria came to US at invitation of doctors for treatment in a clinical trial. Thanks to her, FDA approved meds that improve survival rates for her disease. Trump admin is canceling her medical deferment. Deportation is a death sentence. nytimes.com/2019/08/29/us/… #maddow #inners

Who funds the IEA, the TPA, the ASI &co?
You know, the RW 'free trade' thick tanks advocating tax havens, "freedom" (no regulations like workers' rights or environmental protection), no welfare (no tax & no free healthcare).
Basically, "Only the wealthier survive" philosophy?
1/n
*Could it be* that it has something to do with defending their funders' interests?
Today, I'm going to tell you the Thick Tanks' Hydra tale.
Featuring Atlas, huge piles of money, tradition, "free speech", useful idiots and a very clear agenda that Brexit/Trump are a part of.
2/n
Take a seat: It's a long story, with a lot of players, including politicians, pretty ladies squatting your TV, the climate change denial's network, the global fascist movement, Silicon Valley/multiname data-stealing/misusing company & private companies' involved in elections.

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/

BREAKING: The White House has said that US President #Trump is canceling his upcoming South America trip to remain in the US "to oversee the American response to Syria." - @NBCNews
This sounds like the US is planning to strike #Syria and Trump will remain in the US to closely monitor responses by #Russia. This is terrible.
BREAKING - British forces are now mobilizing at their bases in #Cyprus for strikes against #Syria. It appears very likely that the US, France and U.K. will strike Syria in the next 24 hours. This is dreadful.

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
