Executive time.

Left, Fox Business' Mornings with Maria, 8:29 a.m.

"Activist investor Elliott announcing a $3.2 billion stake in AT&T and outlining a plan to boost shares by over 65%."

Right, Trump, 9:01 a.m.
The specific comments here about CNN's international team amount to a green light to the world's dictators to do whatever they want to them and blame it on their "Fake News." Journalists keep telling him he's going to get them killed, and he won't stop.
Trump did a long interview with NY Times publisher A.G. Sulzberger last year during which Sulzberger told him his rhetoric endangered journalists around the world. At the time, Trump acted like that was news to him. He doesn't have that excuse any longer. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/…

President Trump is tweeting people on Fox pushing his talking points about the whistleblower.

Left, Friday's The Ingraham Angle, 10:09 p.m.
Right, Trump, 5:47 p.m.
This is Trump watching the Saturday night edition of Lou Dobbs, which features segments from earlier in the week.

Left, Fox Business' Lou Dobbs Tonight, 7:20 p.m.
Right, Trump, 8:15 p.m.
These tweets are almost certainly in response to the same segment, which attacked the Post for writing "virtually daily" anti-Trump stories "on quota" as well as the Times' Kavanaugh story.

Congrats to all the journalists who champion Fox's "straight news" division.
This also highlights how the division between "news" and "opinion" programming Fox always harps on is a delusion. Ed Henry is both chief national correspondent for Fox's "news" division and serves as Weekend Steve Doocy on Fox & Friends. Which is he when he interviews Trump?
I wrote about the same issue with regard to Fox's Griff Jenkins a while back. mediamatters.org/blog/2019/07/1…

A more useful and revealing CNN segment on this topic would be interviewing Jeff Zucker about why he thought it was a good idea to hire Corey Lewandowski.
Fox News hosts book Lewandowski because they want their audiences to be lied to. CNN hosts book him to get a “confrontation” over how he lies to their audiences.

Thread: On the Democrats Weaponizing Federal Agencies – Including the IRS!

1. During the 2016 election season, I would wager that many if not most Americans had some element of trust of federal agencies – at least to some extent. How different our opinions are now!
2. We even thought that the IRS had been cleaned up after Lois Lerner was offered up as a sacrificial lamb for her “leadership” in illegally auditing the tax returns of conservatives.
thehill.com/policy/finance…
3. We should have known better! Just think of the revelations of political corruption uncovered over the last 2 yrs alone. While the IRS hasn’t been in the news, their shenanigans have continued behind the scenes. We’ll get into that after this brief survey of the last few yrs.

#Khashoggi Case Thread: I am going to ‘pin’ this post to use it as an ‘Info Thread’ on the #Khashoggi Case. I am in #Turkey. I’ve been following the case closely and with access to sources & experts here. This is a very ‘sensitive’ criminal case due to ‘Diplomatic Booby Traps’!!!
The Evidence Obtained Outside Cameras will not show any evidence of ‘tempering’ but other than license plates of dozens of diplomatic cars (Many with tinted windows-large trunks) with related time stamp, drivers Info, model/year: Nothing.
#Turkish Intel-Investigative Bodies also have the list of all Diplomatic & Private Saudi & “other significant’ Planes in #Turkey for the period of ‘interest.’ Many of the Target airports have their own security cameras & related evidence.

💪A thread on amazing Twitter threads 😍👇
In the process of revamping my #Twitter profile (dormant earlier), I have come to appreciate the wonderful underutilized platform it is!
Some threads contain crisp knowledge capsules that can help many. Starting 1 on such curated content
1. I largely rely on this: threadreaderapp.com to find content
2. What I wish to share is what coincides largely with my interests- #Learning, #Investing, #Behavioralpsychology (#mentalmodels, #bias, etc), #Businessbooks, Industry insights/case studies, Life experiences, etc
3/n
 While it will be difficult to structure the order of content here, I will try to block threads by category (as noted above & more). Feel free to comment with any good thread that you would have come across. Cumulative learning always helps.
