It's increasingly looking like Trump has spent the last few months extorting Ukraine, withholding taxpayer-funded military assistance to pressure them into helping his reelection campaign. themoscowproject.org/dispatch/trump…
It's not just that he and Giuliani trying to force the Ukrainian government to open a bogus investigation into one of his political opponents. They're also trying to get them to undermine the Russia investigation while they're at it. themoscowproject.org/dispatch/trump…
And as always, they're obstructing efforts to get to the bottom of things, keeping Congress in the dark about an "urgent" and "credible" whistleblower complaint about Trump's promises to a foreign leader—for no reason other than to protect the president. themoscowproject.org/dispatch/trump…

Trump reportedly personally called Boris Johnson for help undermining the Mueller investigation. thetimes.co.uk/article/donald…
The call reportedly took place on July 26. That's two days after Mueller testified, two days after Johnson took office, and one day after Trump's now-infamous phone call with Zelensky. And a few days later, Bill Barr made a follow-up visit.

Trump likes to (falsely) claim that Mueller totally exonerated him. So why did he apparently spend the days after Mueller testified calling up world leader after world leader to pressure them for help attacking the investigation?

Bill Barr reportedly traveled to Italy last week on an "under-the-radar mission" to listen to a tape of Joseph Mifsud, the Kremlin-linked professor who told George Papadopoulos that Russia had "dirt" on Hillary Clinton in the form of "thousands of emails." thedailybeast.com/barr-went-to-r…
That's bad enough on its own—and even worse when you consider the ongoing scandal surrounding a powerful right-wing Italian politician's top aides meeting with the Kremlin to discuss laundering millions from a Russian oil company into their boss's party. buzzfeednews.com/article/albert…
That effort has reportedly involved dozens of trips by those aides to Russia. That's something the Kremlin really tried to make happen during 2016, as well. themoscowproject.org/breaking-down-…

The acting Director of National Intelligence will be testifying publicly starting at 9 a.m. Watch it live here: c-span.org/video/?464509-…
.@RepAdamSchiff on yesterday's memo: "Yesterday, we were presented with a record of a call between the president of the United States and the president of Ukraine in which the president sacrificed our national security and our Constitution for his personal and political benefit."
@RepAdamSchiff Nunes calls for a "quiet, sober inquiry, as we do for all whistleblowers."
That would have been possible, had the administration not done everything they could to conceal the complaint from Congress.

1/ This thread talks about the different risks DeFi platforms face and why me and a few others @ConsenSys have spent the last few months researching and drafting a risk assessment framework for DeFi platforms
2/ DeFi users have a lot of options. All lending protocols are not created equal. Comparing rates is hard and has many pitfalls. We wanted to provide users with an easier way to compare across different platforms.
3/ The cost of creating new financial products is trending towards 0. With great power, comes great responsibility. Legacy finance products that have been studied thoroughly by multiple independent parties still blow up. What happens when we have compounding smart contract risk?

Here's Mike Flynn using Transition email and CC'ing two Gmail accounts (or one involving his spawn?).

oversight.house.gov/sites/democrat…
When McFarlane said he hoped Flynn had had a break over Christmas, he probably didn't mean, "I hope you didn't have any outreach w/Russian Ambassador over break that will lead to your conviction" and a delay in our nuclear power graft.
And here's KT McFarland using an email that does NOT appear to be an EOP address, while working at the White House, to make sure Tom Barrack is in the loop.

First, I want to say thank you. Thank you for your support as I ran for re-election in Ohio, and thank you for your support as we traveled the country on the Dignity of Work tour.
.@ConnieSchultz and I have spent the last few months traveling around the country to make dignity of work a centerpiece of Democrats’ 2020 campaign, and we are so grateful to everyone who has welcomed us into their communities and into their lives.
We’ve seen candidates begin taking up the dignity of work fight, and we have seen voters across the country demanding it—because dignity of work is a value that unites all of us. It is how we beat Trump, and it is how we should govern.

I have spent the last few months listening to nursery rhymes that my niece plays on repeat and as a consequence I have very, very strong feelings about the nursery rhyme "Nan Teri Morni"

[thread]
Let's start with the first line.

"Nani teri morni ko morr le gaye"

Let's face it, these are animals who are probably mating. Attributing lack of consent and/or agency to the peahens is insulting, and a rejection of how animals normally behave.
"Baqi jo bacha tha kaalay chorr le gaye"

First up, is this racial profiling helping solve the case? Secondly, and my biggest pet peeve, WHY DIDN'T YOU LEAD WITH THE FACT THAT NANI HAS BEEN COMPLETELY ROBBED?!?!

This might not look very impressive but these little sprouts mean the world to me 🌱 They are the first fruits of my new endeavor to “plant my own garden & decorate my own soul.” 💚 Someday soon these little sprouts will hopefully blossom into sunflowers 🌻
Over the past several weeks as I’ve been working through heartbreak & grief & anxiety...God has continued to place this scripture on my heart. I’ve struggled to understand why He keeps bringing me back to this point.
Yesterday I had lunch with my friend Laura...& she too has been continuously pointed back to scriptures about seeds & growth & planting & fruit lately. She’s even speaking at a retreat this weekend where that’s the theme! And I don’t believe in coincidence 🙏🏻✨🙏🏻
