Honestly I cannot follow the logic of the Democratic talking points.

So, this year you cannot go to Ukraine like two years ago NOBODY could go to Russia or talk to Russians.

How can Orange Man Bad be impeached for delaying aid for Russia's enemy, but that enemy now be cancer?
So, Trump's a traitor for holding up aid to Ukraine and "all roads lead to Putin" again, but we put anyone who travels to Ukraine under suspicion.

Honestly, that makes ZERO sense. There's no logic here. It's mentally handicapped.
In summation, the Democratic logic on foreign relations regarding Ukraine and Russia is the enemy of my enemy is my enemy and my sister's second cousin's brother's sister-in-law.

This makes no sense, folks.

Of a count of more than 15M, painting the rosiest modeling picture for Democrats possible in Texas, Indies are still only 35% of the electorate.

Suspect the poll packs Democrats in Indies. It happened often in 2018.

When modeled at 50% voting likelihood, TX is still GOP+13.
This is that modeling scenario for Texas re: above. While it looks ugly for Ds, it's actually not as bad if we allocated nearly all remaining Indies to their share.

Looks a lot like Cruz vs. Beto, which an honest take would conclude a fluke until more data suggests otherwise.
The point I'm trying to make here is how easy it would be — one might even say, convenient — to mistake Democrats as Indies in Texas.

That's one of many reasons why it's crucial for pollsters to source via voter files in the modern era.

I have a great deal of respect for the anti-police state work done by @SenFeinstein.

I'm on the edge of my seat wondering if she's about to throw it all away for party and power.
@SenFeinstein Feinstein is obfuscating the predicate for the counter-intel investigation for the evidence used as justification at the FISA Court, FISC.

So, she answered my question. In the end, even the great DiFi is willing to throw away for party and power.
Simple question to ask yourselves.

If the predicate was strong enough to open an investigation and forgo a defensive briefing, then why did they need to lie to the FISC to obtain the FISA warrants?

Lindsey Graham said the IG report found "abuse of power at a level I never believe would exist in 2019."

That's kind of the point FISA and police state opponents have been trying to make to national security Republicans, FOR DECADES...

Particularly after 911.
Our Founding Fathers didn't believe in an elite class of better-than-you patriots who were so virtuous and super smart they could be entrusted with power like this.

Not. At. All.

They were realists re: human nature.
Listen to these texts and messages Lindsey Graham has been reading.

They are Thomas Jefferson's Artificial Aristocracy.

How it is possible that @BorisJohnson is being investigated in the USA for potentially being compromised but nobody in the United Kingdom including the #bbcqt #media #Police have investigated this #crime #Brexit the #GeneralElection is days away #ReleaseTheRussianReport
The intrigue over a 'buried' probe into Russian spying deepened last night amid claims in security circles that it contains references to blackmail fears concerning Boris Johnson. #ReleaseTheRussianReport
One expert witness, who gave evidence to the ISC inquiry, has claimed privately to friends that he believes Boris Johnson was 'compromised' by a Russian businessman on a foreign trip in 2016
This is getting crazier 😱 #ReleaseTheRussianReport #GeneralElection2019 #GetJohnsonGone

So, I ran across a retweet of the below tweet and it immediately raised flags. Puffing up a witness has a reason, so decided to go look for the documentation behind it, since it had a direct quote. Didn't take long - few minutes and NPR coughed it up (will link at the end)./1
About puffing someone up - the reason is to try to give the person credibility, their views more weight than they should be given, and to set them above someone they are in disagreement with. In this case, also to elicit support due to his medal./2
In the case of the tweet, it is immediately followed by the statement "speaking out against the command-in-chief." (you're suppose to gasp here I think)

Then "the reason" is given - people kept telling him he needed to speak up (be sure to ignore other possible reasons)./3

I figured something out, and because of impact on others I was going to stop posting on twitter; but they're doing this to everyone. So here goes for this weeks example.

I'm sorry Seth, but your perfect tweet's needed to explain. 👇

His tweet highlights a massively important point, if you don't follow him? You're likely to miss it. Mulvaney's press conference and his subsequent press conference AND everything President Donald J Trump has done is to EDUCATE people on how and what the government SHOULD do.
I'm on 9 block lists ~ I thought was because I offended too many people. I do have that gift but we have had people who are helping silence Free Speech by creating these block lists. Programs that tech uses pick up the rest. Bringing China's social media scores world wide.

#NowWatching “X-Men.”

A film franchise with a complicated, but surprisingly important legacy.

Although there were obviously superhero films before, and films like “Blade” are often overlooked, “X-Men” is ground zero for the modern superhero boom.
Of course, it is, quite rightly, impossible to talk about the series without acknowledging that Bryan Singer is a well-documented sexual predator.

This informs the films’ legacy, although it seems under-discussed compared to the emergence of the MCU.

theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…
The cornerstone of the modern American popular landscape was laid by a serial sexual predator. Built to a blueprint he laid.

While it seems like the cultural mood has shifted on the “X-Men” films, it’s strange to me that this isn’t the catalyst.
