😨Ex CIA Bob Baer suggests the “urgent credible threat” in the whistleblower complaint (that DNI won’t give Congress) ”usually” has something to do w/ someone in White House setting up an illegal backchannel to a foreign govt, or some sort of corruption, discovered by CIA or NSA.
🚨>> Whistleblower complaint involves TRUMP’S communications with a foreign leader that included a “promise” regarded so troubling it prompted an official in the US intelligence community to file a formal whistleblower complaint with the inspector general. washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
In the weeks before the “urgent & credible” whistleblower complaint about Trump’s “promise” to a foreign leader, he had interactions with:
1) Russia’s Putin that WH initiated
2) 2 “beautiful” letters from North Korea’s Kim Jong Un
3) Pakistan’s PM
4) Netherlands’ PM
5) Qatar emir

🧨>> #Bolton unloads on Trump’s foreign policy. He ripped Trump’s last minute failure to respond to Iran’s attack on an American drone. And even suggested that had the US retaliated then, #Iran might not have damaged the Saudi oil fields.🤭 politico.com/story/2019/09/… h/t @maggieNYT
@maggieNYT Recall Trump was about to launch a strike on Iran but pulled back after FoxNews propagandist Tucker Carlson said Bolton's idea was bad.

That really happened. We're now deciding which FauxNews propagandist is less terrible at running US foreign policy when none of them should be.
Jim @acosta reports #Bolton was scathing about Trump during event in NY today. Bolton didn’t have *anything* positive to say about Trump—after serving more than 17 months as Trump’s third National Security Adviser.

Smug stonewalling Corey #Lewandowski & GOP cohorts are subverting democracy at today's #impeachment hearing. Americans voted to put Democrats in power to hold this corrupt POTUS accountable. But Repubs shamelessly obstruct & spew propaganda to protect idiot POTUS & their power.😒
Lewandowski/GOP Logic: Obama, Clapper, Comey, Brennan are to blame for Russia subverting our election to install Trump … which never happened.

Also let’s jail those who tried to stop Russia’s attack but failed b/c corrupt Trump & GOP encouraged & gave Putin cover.

🤡💩🔥24/7
GOP propaganda agitprop circus aside, Lewandowski & Trump KNOW their conduct is culpable #obstruction. Otherwise Trump wouldn't be directing White House lawyers to silence Corey w/ baseless privilege assertions. & Corey would answer Judiciary Dems' questions. #ImpeachmentHearings

THREAD on yesterday’s prisoner exchange between #Russia & #Ukraine: 1/10 Just as Savchenko’s pardon in 2016 meant the end of the active phase of war, the new prisoner exchange is meant to show that both sides are ready to move out of limbo toward proper peace.
2/10 Russia’s readiness to exchange Sentsov shows that 3 months into Zelensky’s rule, Russia accepts it is dealing with a different Ukraine, in which diplomatic tools that were useless with Poroshenko can be deployed.
3/10 For the Kremlin, key conditions for the exchange were Zelensky’s recognition of mutual benefits, and the exclusion of a victory/defeat paradigm, though commentators on both sides continue to portray it that way.

RUSSIA CONNECTS

The West, being overtaken by China & those allied with it has repeatedly signaled its intent to weaken those rising to threaten its continued ability to be World Control HQ.

The East has largely until recently hoped for a change of heart & a return to sanity.
RUSSIA CONNECTS

The East doesn't wish conflict, it wants stability, strong relationships, security & trade.

The West has shown time after time its malign intention, to disrupt & destabilize, creating chaos, organizing provocations, sanctioning, sabotaging, ever threatening war.
RUSSIA CONNECTS

Color revolutions have become the West’s favored means of undermining nations & replacing governments.

The fomented insurrection occurring now in Hong Kong is another example of its cynical attempt to generate chaos with a view to furthering western aims.

#Russia, #Israel, #US & #Jirdan eventually negotiated departure of 422 #WhiteHelmets & their families out of #Syria (initial number was reportedly 827).#Canada, #Germany, #UK also involved in talks, each agreed to host them. Some 3750 activists remain in SYR.
#Moscow reportedly didnt allow direct passage of #WhiteHelmets to #Jordan (hence evacuation thru #Israel)while #Amman agreed to temporarily accept 'em only after guarantees frm West states they'd host them.#Canada to host 250 (activists+families),#Germany -8 activists +?families
In #Moscow, #WhiteHelmets evacuation said to be a part of #HelsinkiSummit agreements on #Syria, #GolanHeights. The very operation was thoroughly coordinated by #Israel's Lieberman & #Russia's Shoigu as well as discussed by #Putin & @netanyahu in latest phone call.

THREAD: *Many* ties link Team🇷🇺Trump to #Russia. Manafort & Gates were central‼️

👉🏼Manafort: Trump’s most powerful political operative, helped secure GOP nomination
👉🏼Gates: his deputy, was along for the whole ride

1/
 newsweek.com/manafort-trump…
Team🇺🇸Mueller noticed that Putins's🇷🇺allies paid MILLIONS to Manafort/Gates to impose Moscow’s will on #Ukraine in DIRECT OPPOSITION to stated US foreign policy‼️ 2/
Dmitry Firtash, a Ukrainian oligarch & close ally to Putin & fmr Ukrainian President Yanukovych, is key to the #Russia🇷🇺Manafort connection.

Firtash owns 45% of RosUkrEnergo (RUE)— a shady operation that brings gas from Turkmenistan to Ukraine.🤨

And LAUNDER MONEY‼️ 3/
