<THREAD> A central question of the #ImpeachmentInquiry is Trump's insistence on using #RudyGiuliani to side-step traditional diplomatic channels. Why make Rudy your cyber-security advisor? Because it's a cover for Rudy to do what he's always done for Trump. @NarativLive
2. Which is why you should be watching my new podcast - it's a real-time deep investigation into Rudy that will become extremely relevant as the #ImpeachmentInquiry continues. in Part 1, we explained Donald and Rudy's ties to the #Russian #mob. podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/nar…
3. In part 2, I explain how Rudy fits into The #Trump-Russia narrative and expose his cyber-security contracts as a slush fund for his back-channel diplomacy. @NarativLive podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/nar…
4. Next time, the biggest discovery yet. Here's the tease. You can do more to #DefendOurDemocracy by becoming a Narativ patron at patreon.com/narativ. Our $3 tier stops selling at midnight tonight. As of tomorrow, the lowest tier will go up to $7. @NarativLive

WATCH: @NarativLive. How Vladimir Putin was the pulling the strings as Trump sold out Ukraine and is natural gas the real quid pro quo of #Ukrainegate. Best enjoyed with a beer and a Narativ membership available at Patreon.com/narativ. pscp.tv/ZevShalev/1vOx…

@NarativLive Rick Perry called Ukraine's Black Sea the "next Gulf of Mexico" for natural gas exploration. Perry campaigned for the sector until July 25, the day of the Trump-Zelensky call. Ilya Ponomarev, CEO/US-owned Trident, tells me Perry's support turned from frothy to frosty overnight.

1. Two GOP witnesses in Prime Time should have been a win for Trump but it was not. Ambassador Volker twisted himself into knots in Trump's defense but in the end, he had to concede what the President did was plainly wrong. @NarativLive #ImpeachmentInquiry
2. Mr. Morrison attempted to defend the indefensible but he could not explain why he took extraordinary measures to cover-up the call, if there was nothing wrong with it, nor why he reported the call. #ImpeachmentInquiry
3. Tonight's questioning penetrated the sanctuary of the supper hour news hour. If impeachment was not an issue at kitchen tables before tonight, it will be after tonight. #ImpeachmentInquiry

(Thread) I published this post about Putin and Bitcoin in July 27 2017 related to BTC-E and its founder Alexander Vinnik. @narativlive narativ.org/2017/07/27/bit…
@NarativLive 2. So when BBC reported the FSB had cleared out a successor to BTC-E called Wex to the tune of $450M, that stood out to me. occrp.org/en/27-ccwatch/…
3. Those of you banking on crypto, keep in mind the outsized control by Russia and proceed with caution. Russia's secret service may indeed think of your crypto wallet as its crypto walled. /END

THE OPPORTUNIST: The Many Hats of Rudy Giuliani

How Trump’s free personal lawyer’s post 9-11 profiteering is a NATIONAL SECURITY CRISIS.

In this video & thread, investigative legal analyst @tracygreen documents Giuliani’s BIG GREASY CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
1/ SHREWDY RUDY: Watch the video: it’s a fast seven minutes, and it lays out each hat Giuliani wears—the ones that we know of—and the explosive conflicts of interest.
2/ KOMPROCATIONS: White collar crime expert and veteran trial lawyer @tracygreen asked a very simple question: who’s Giuliani working for... the answer is, well, komprocated.

<THREAD> Beyond dumping the nuclear deal, what is Trump’s Iran strategy? He clearly wants to pressure Iran with sanctions. But to what end?

Not a “better deal,” which officials can’t define & nearly all analysts acknowledge is unlikely.

Rather, the “plan” appears to be...1/7
...to (A) squeeze Iran to starve it of cash & trigger regime change (which is possible, but unlikely), while

(B) using US and Israeli military threats to deter Iran from restarting it’s nuclear program in response to US sanctions, and... 2/7
...finally (C) unleashing America’s regional allies (Israel, Saudi Arabia, UAE) to “go get’em” in Syria, Yemen, etc. without actually putting much US military skin in the game to check Iran (e.g., Trump’s desire to exit Syria). 3/7

<THREAD> People aren’t paying enough attention to Trump’s militarization of US policy, incl:
—A silent surge of troops & drone strikes across the globe
—An unbalanced approach that delegates to DoD while gutting the diplomacy necessary for force to achieve lasting results 1/7
The troop & drone surge is not just in the MidEast & Afghanistan, it’s also in Africa & Southeast Asia.

And, in all these theaters, the White House has delegated more & loosened oversight on DoD (& CIA) activities. Trump likes to brag about giving DoD “total authorization.” 2/7
This piece does an excellent job bringing this militarization trend to light 👇 merip.org/mer/mer283/tru… 3/7

Trump bragged about sexual assaulting women.

16 women came forward & confirmed it.

They deserve to be heard.

Here they are.

Jessica Leeds: "It was assault."

Ivana Trump: "It is a violent assault" ... "He raped me."

<THREAD> Separate from the very real possibility of Trump-Russia collusion, the Flynn revelations this week speak to a clear pattern of behavior by both Team Trump and GOP leadership: conspiring to go easy on the Kremlin despite Russian interference in our election. 1/
We know the Kremlin reached out to the Trump campaign (e.g., Papadopoulos, Don Jr) via multiple channels to offer Clinton “dirt”/emails, and received a welcome response from Team Trump. washingtonpost.com/news/politics/… 2/
We know that Trump urged Russia to hack HRC in the summer of 2016 & that Trump surrogates repeatedly sought emails via Russian hackers & WikiLeaks. slate.com/blogs/the_slat… 3/
