NEW: The Trump admin is investigating current and former senior State Dept officials' emails to then-Sec of State Hillary Clinton’s private server, reviving the fake scandal that overshadowed 2016.

Trump's 2020 campaign slogan: "But her emails. Again."
wapo.st/2mIrcsn?tid=ss…
“They realize how absurd it is.” Several of those who have been questioned said that the State Dept Security investigators made it clear that they were pursuing the matter reluctantly, and under external pressure.

“It is such an obscene abuse of power.”

NSC lawyers [whose chief legal adviser is John Eisenberg, a Cipollone deputy] directed WH officials to move Trump's Ukraine call transcript to the secret server.

It was also Eisenberg who alerted the DOJ about the whistleblower complaint [in which he was implicated].

1/
"The Trump admin said on Friday that NSC lawyers [whose chief legal adviser is John Eisenberg, a Cipollone deputy] made the decision to place the call transcript into a highly classified computer system accessible to only a small number of officials."

"But information about the whistleblower was already making its way through the administration. On Aug 14, White House [NSC] lawyer, John Eisenberg ... alerted the head of the DOJ's national security division about the complaint..."

Oh. My. Gawd.

NEW: Trump told Russian officials in 2017 oval meeting that he wasn’t concerned about their 2016 election interference because the US does it too––which alarmed officials and prompted a lockdown of documents [like with Ukraine call].
#Maddow washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
A memo summarizing the Trump, Lavrov, Kislyak meeting was limited to just a few officials with the highest security clearances in an attempt to keep Trump’s traitorous comments from being disclosed publicly.
by @jdawsey1 @shaneharris @nakashimae #Maddow
@jdawsey1 @shaneharris @nakashimae Recall: After Trump's meeting with Lavrov and Kislyak, US intelligence made the decision to extract one of its highest-level covert sources from inside the Russian govt, driven by concerns that Trump might expose the source.

🎯@MalcolmNance on Pompeo’s Meta Narrative Judo: He took the #whistleblower story, pretended it didn’t exist, then reframed it as a criminal conspiracy about Biden. Pompeo’s knee-deep in this. The State Dept reportedly facilitated or coordinated Giuliani’s #Ukraine mission.#AMJoy
Pompeo not only peddled Trump’s disinformation about Biden-Ukraine. He slipped in another false claim, connecting Biden to 2016 election interference. A kitchen-sink of propaganda tactics—obfuscation, conflation, gaslighting—on @ThisWeekABC @MarthaRaddatz
@ThisWeekABC @MarthaRaddatz See what Pompeo did there?
"If Biden intervened [in Ukraine] to protect his son in a corrupt way, we need to get to the bottom… AMERICANS CANNOT HAVE OUR ELECTIONS INTERFERED WITH…If that kind of activity was engaged in by VP Biden, we need to know."

I’m an avid history geek 🤓 and I got this idea from @GippersChutzpah!
My follower count is currently stuck in the mid ages. I’ll tweet some Jewish history milestones from along the years, according to my follower count. So come on, I’m 4 followers short of the first story...
On 13/12/1204, Moshe Ben Maimon AKA #Maimonides (Greek) and Ha’Rambam (Hebrew), died at 69 in Egypt.
A Philosopher, Physician, Astronomer and one of most important #Jewish Scholars of all times.
Buried in Tiberias @Israel, upon final request to be buried in the ancient homeland
WOW! 3 followers away from yet another milestone of #JewishHistory!
So far we learned about some pogroms 😠(1171 France, 1190 England) and Maïmōnídēs dying 😢(1204 Egypt).
JewishHistory is filled with sorrow and darkness but it gets better in the 2nd half of the 20th century 😉

Think about how scary this is: FBI raided the House of a Clinton Foundation whistleblower, seizing documents relating to Uranium One that could take down MANY high-level Deep State officials, including Robert Mueller himself. . . . And all the media has to do is say it isn't true
Because in order to stay in power the majority of the country has to vote for you and they're not going to vote if they know how corrupt you are and how big of criminals you are. The media's job is to make sure you don't learn of any of it, and to project it all on the opposition
That is why I so affectionately refer to Democrat voters as "Useful Idiots". So many times I get responses "you mean useless, right?". Oh No! They are VERY useful. Without them believing the bullshit, the Democrats would be out of power

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
