1/ THREAD: Rep. Will Hurd listening to Amb. #GordonSondland's testimony this morning. Holding a hand over one's mouth in this manner is an indication of emotional processing.

#WillHurd #ImpeachmentHearings #ImpeachmentInquiry
#Impeachment
2/ It's a #BodyLanguage signal that, although the intellectual brain may know the 'facts', the emotional mind is still trying to get a grasp on a sudden unfolding of events.
3/ Recall this nearly identical image of Secretary Clinton in the White House Situation Room during the raid on/death of Osama Bin Laden.

1/ THREAD: #DavidHolmes is displaying one example of what is known as a Partial Emblematic Slip. In short, this is a subconscious/edge-of-consciousnesses behavior where he is giving the middle finger to Rep. #JimJordan during particularly aggressive questioning.

#BodyLanguage
2/ It's called 'Partial' because it's a nonverbal which is not being held in its typical, elevated, very deliberate, hand-and-finger on full display — usually in front of and on a level with the user's chest, neck, or face.

#ImpeachmentHearings #ImpeachmentInquiry #BodyLanguage
3/ Holmes's psyche camouflages his maneuver by maintaining his forefinger (index finger) only partially extended (mostly flexed).

If Donald Trump were the Titanic, he would have already struck the iceberg and is taking on water — Gordon Sondland is Billy Zane (Cal Hockley) pushing women and children out of the way to get on a lifeboat.

#DonaldTrump #GordonSondland #ImpeachmentHearings #ImpeachmentInquiry
To clarify and extend this metaphor, Trump is NOT Captain Smith (although he certainly doesn't know how to steer his ship). Trump is a coward and would never voluntarily go down with the ship — he *IS* the ship. And he is going to the bottom.
And, like the Titanic, Trump will ABSOLUTELY become a negative historical metaphor:
Titanic,
Benedict Arnold,
Drinking the Kool-Aid,
Trump.

1/ THREAD: A Possible Path for Republicans to save face?

Although it's absolutely cowardly, consider the following scenario:
2/ After Trump's Impeachment, once the trial begins in the Senate, any given Republican senator may agree that Trump should be removed, but for various reasons (lack of courage, desire to pander to base/effort to get re-elected, etc.), ...
3/ ... they don't want to vote for his removal of the President. However, if any of them abstain from voting, the total required for 2/3 majority (and subsequent removal) diminishes...

This session with an entrepreneur and his wife yesterday had my brain working ALL night and so I’ve decided to do a #thread without my super personal details.

This is a thread about #love and being an #entrepreneur
Once I had clarity of purpose and felt in my soul that I knew why I was on this planet at this particular time, I wrote a plan to achieve that ultimate objective.

I studied role models to understand how they managed to find love, especially paying attention to @richardbranson
Staying married seems to be extremely hard for ambitious people willing to take risks few people will take.

It is easy to be singularly-focused and seem selfish. Your business can seem all-consuming. You drop so many balls trying to juggle them.

#Thread. Alright let’s deal with the Hecht Op-Ed/steaming pile of crap. First from a journalism perspective it should never have been published. It is a hot mess of exaggerations, fiction, and leaps of conclusion to fit the author’s - ignorant - narrative.
First never mind #Denmark I found the the most puzzling statement to be about #Switzerland, below. The Swiss are not governed by four ethnic governments with each ethnicity sticking to their fourth of the country. This claim, as far as I can tell, is total fiction.
Matter of fact after an afternoon researching Swiss governance, ethnicity, etc. The descriptions of #Switzerland used common terms like “diverse” “a melting pot.” Having been to Zurich it is also very nice and well worth a trip.

Food Import Ban.
The best policy by @MBuhari so far.
Let me tell you that Nigeria have the ability and potential to produce everything we consume in this country cheaply and better.
Before the #Thread, let me ask.
How many people can afford Imported food?
What do we even import?
According to a 2018 report by the CBN, Nigeria’s monthly food import bill fell from $665.4m in January 2015 to $160.4m as of October 2018.
Nigeria spends $22 billion on food importation annually.
This staggering figure exposes why Nigeria’s balance of payment has remained in the negatives whilst it continues to wallow in the doldrums of dependency. Nigeria imports more than it exports while we have vast arable lands and growing youth unemployment.

GOD, His people & The World’s Kingdoms/Empires

- What’s gone before.
- What is to come.
- The Gospel of the Kingdom.

* Missed the Rapture? What to Expect.

#Thread
Ever since God created the Earth in Genesis 1, He willed it to be ruled by Man whom He created; hence Adam was the first world governor & emperor and he was so, under God.
But by disobedience to God & obedience to Satan, Adam changed masters; and though the governing of the earth was still through human agency, Satan became the god of this world’s systems (2 Cor. 4:4).

#Thread Senator @tedcruz leading the charge against Big Tech Censorship in recent hearing on Internet Transparency:

“One issue that I’ve been very concerned about...& ppl across the country are concerned about is big tech using its power to engage in political censorship."

1/
Senator @tedcruz: "One of the most frustrating things about dealing with the question of tech censorship is that it is all marked in darkness and obscurity. There is no transparency whatsoever."

2/
.@tedcruz on the power of shadowbanning & other forms of censorship: "That is a degree of power handed to a handful of tech billionaires in California to monitor & police, & put not just a thumb, but all five fingers, a fist & their foot on the scales of political discourse."
