A lot of people are going to be disappointed by the (lack of) impact the upcoming public hearings are going to have.
They could very well move the dial a few points but some big groundswell of new support for impeachment and removal isn’t going to happen.
Dems and some Indys and a couple Republicans will be deeply troubled, but almost no one is calling this what it is: A Russian mafia disinformation campaign that led to a White House extortion/bribery shakedown scheme on a vulnerable country fighting Russia.

Haven't had the chance to read the full thing yet but this is awfully interesting. Stanford conducted a study on GRU tactics on Facebook and found that they are highly skilled at "narrative laundering" but need a 2nd party like Wikileaks to have success. fsi-live.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/s3fs-public/po…
"Fancy Bear’s own Facebook posts about its hack-and-leak attack on the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), for example, received relatively little engagement, but write-ups in Wired and The Guardian ensured that its operations got wider attention."
"collaboration with Wikileaks and press outreach played a much larger role in capturing public attention. In the case of DCLeaks in particular, it becomes increasingly clear that media, not social media, had the most significant impact on amplifying that hack-and-leak operation"

Joe diGenova, who is being paid by the Russian mafia, named the whistleblower today and compared him to John Wilkes Booth, calling the complaint a “decapitation”.
“This is a decapitation of a President” is the exact quote.
They are going to get people hurt.

An utterly fascinating episode of @intelpod on money laundering, impeachment, and important legal proceedings with Michael Zeldin, former Special Counsel for Money Laundering Matters to Robert Mueller. soundcloud.com/muellertime/le…
@intelpod On the extortion:

Trump "made Zelensky an offer he couldn't refuse"

-Zeldin
@intelpod Michael Zeldin, folks, not Rep Zeldin. The former makes some incredible points in the above podcast. Here, he was described Ukraine's absolute need for protection.

well, that was a #hairy #few #minutes, I have no #hashtags left to use about the #uksc.

The UK if you've missed it, is, possibly surprisingly, a #democracy and #democracyisnotdead

Should we talk about consequences? implications and links? might go into threads from here on in
I'm making this thread up as I go, but since about 90% of the population think the only Democratic problem is the speed of #Brexit, and #conspiracy about #RemainerNow delays, maybe someone should list all the attacks - most of which are far more serious. I'll justify that #uksc
Here's my view, feel free to add. I'll put this in normal language first, and add relevant legals after.

1) UK Executive and Tories (UKET) attempt Rule by Edict
2) UKET attempt a Parliamentary Coup (we may now legitimately describe it that way)
3) UKET illegally suspend Parl'

REMARKS BY PRESIDENT TRUMP
BEFORE MARINE ONE DEPARTURE

South Lawn

10:44 A.M. EDT
2/ THE PRESIDENT: That’s a great crowd of people. We had a phenomenal crowd last night, and it was a fantastic evening for our country. You’re going to have a lot of people being recruited, I think, based on that.
3/ We're going to have a lot of -- a lot of people joining our military. And we really needed that.

Our job numbers are so good that the military has a hard time getting people. And I think, really, that you’re going to see a big spike.

Going to read “The Right Side of History”. This will be some mixture of enlightening, been there done that, and hate-read dunkathon. Let’s see.

No idea what Shapiro’s background is outside trolling libs, but I maybe he’s sort of Straussian? The ‘Jerusalem plus Athens’ thing.
So the thesis is ‘things have never been better, but we’re fucking it up now.’ Pinker + angst.
‘We’ in the book is Americans, natch.

McCrae Dowless has arrived for the #NC09 hearing. No comment as he walks in.
There's a protest underway before the hearing of #NC09 residents and Democrats who want a new election.
And Andy Yates, owner of Red Dome Consulting (firm that hired Dowless) has arrived as well. #NC09

.@AOC: 'Weird American Dream mythology' requires 'painful' changes for poor whites washingtontimes.com/news/2019/feb/… via @washtimes
“I find the solutions for white communities to be very painful because it’s very painful for a community to understand and have to go through this — like, you can be — the idea that you can be poor and benefit from the color of your skin does not compute for a lot of people,”
“And going through that realization is very painful or even just economically for people that were born with silver spoons. It’s very painful to admit that you had advantages.”

1) There’s a lot of BS about @nntaleb’s Black Swan, antifragility & skin in da game. Let’s take the gloves off and get into trouble.
2) When the Swan flew out, it was immediately butchered by imbeciles not understanding that you can’t predict the unpredictable.

That is the point – and an IQ filter NNT himself proly did not expect.
3) In any complex domain – life! – the Blackest Swan is always skulking around the corner. You know it’s coming, but you don’t know what where when. You can't tame what you've never even conceived of.

Can you get it?
