I wonder if #fiftyfive or #fiftyfivepercent will trend? Trump is in deep deep shit now. Nixon resigned at 55%

Trump can't resign because Mueller told us he has 12 indictments waiting. Trump would go straight to jail, do not pass Go

& Pence can't pardon Trump for NY state crimes
To everybody in this thread (wow, nearly 100 replies, THANKS !! very good stuff here)

About the pardoning. There is a misfortunate article by Robert Reich where he had the pardoning part WRONG. You yes you DID read a very reputable source say Trump can't be pardoned but not true
So Pence's pardoning Trump. The ONLY thing about impeachment that changes, is that THE IMPEACHMENT itself cannot be pardoned. Pence can pardon Trump of ANY other crimes - that are federal, including yes, extortion of Ukraine, obstruction of justice, tax fraud, bribery, lies etc
What Pence cannot NOT pardon, are state crimes (those can be pardoned by each Governor of that state). Mueller found Trump committing crimes - STATE crimes - in NY, IL, CA and FL that we know of. This is not 'SDNY' - The Southern District of NY is a FEDERAL court (nor EDNY)
With federal and state crimes, almost always, the state prosecutors let the FEDERAL prosecutors go first. So NY, IL, CA (& FL) will wait. If Pence pardons, he cannot pardon state crimes. If Pence did not, then Feds (incl SDNY, EDNY) will go first, and slap 1,000 years of crimes
but Mueller also found in-state crimes (at least part are tax crimes which never run out) and while FL is not sure if it will prosecute, NY, IL and CA all have Democrats in control, is CERTAIN if Trump is pardoned by Pence, NY IL and CA will rush to prosecute. About 100 years
To everybody in this thread. Many discuss the Pence angle (if pardons, can he pardon - yes he can - and what is the play by Trump etc)

I will discuss Pence in its own Tweet today, come join that discussion, cheers!

Putin Alaska Thread 1/25

This is a scenario. A horror story, if you will. It is plausible. The Military parts to this are 100% accurate. The political parts, you decide. Trump makes this plausible. I am 100% certain, Putin has considered this as one of his options for Trump era
Putin Alaska Thread 2/25

What prompted me to write this thread? The STUNNING news that Putin's propaganda has managed to convince 47% of US ACTIVE military personnel that RUSSIA IS THE FRIEND, not the enemy! Fresh Ronald Reagan National Defense survey voanews.com/usa/pentagon-c…
Putin Alaska Thread 3/25

So first. Facts. Russia is the enemy. Russia is America's primary MILITARY rival among the two superpower geopolitical rivals (China is stronger by its economy but weaker by its military and far less aggressive militarily than Russia). Other nations less

I told you about 3 weeks ago, that Trump Tweets changed abruptly and totally. Since then he's had maybe 3 or 4 lapses of only a few Tweets. Someone is HANDLING him. Now this Afghanistan visit? Is SMART POLITICS for 2020. Trump is being managed by someone competent (& is scared)
Wow this Tweet has over 2.5K likes, over 700 retweets. Wow. Thank you everybody. I'll add a few quick comments
There is some very smart discussion in this monster-long thread of nearly 200 replies. Worth reading (most) of them and just block the occasional Trump troll that got into the mix... :-)

Meanwhile in the Mueller Report
(WTF? I thought we lost that fight?)

Meanwhile!
..in the Mueller Report..

Pay attention kids! Meanwhile, in the Mueller Report. A judge just ruled that DOJ made unlawful redactions! Yes, AG Barr had hidden parts that Mueller tried to tell us
So yes, our guru of all legal matters relating to Trump downfall - @SethAbramson found story that a Judge found improper redactions by AG Barr

Original is @thehill
JUST IN: Federal judge rules DOJ improperly redacted court filing related to Mueller probe hill.cm/ib4NXJy
Wow... Everybody in this thread. THANK YOU !!!! This comment has passed 20,000 reactions. It is the most engaged Tweet of my long life inside Twitter... THANK YOU

I really wonder about some of these supposedly pro-#Trump accts that push these bizarre theories about "forbidden knowledge" & act like Antisemitic cultists who know Judaism better than Jews.
I feel like they are Dem shills because the ideas they promote go against Trump's ideas.
For example, of course there are people in any identity group who are fakes but the position of that acct & one of her friends was that Judaism is really satanism, that Jesus was not a Jew & that the Talmud is an "instruction book" full of antiJesus hate.
These nuts actually believe that they have studied more about Judaism than me, a practicing Jew who had already told them I have the entire Babylonian Talmud in print in my house and that I can verify that it is not a satanic instruction book.

Trump announces he has canceled a secret meeting at Camp David with Taliban leaders set for Sunday – three days before the 18th anniversary of September 11 –after a car bombing in Kabul nytimes.com/2019/09/07/us/…
Thread from a pre-eminent expert on Afghanistan & former senior advisor to the State Department's special representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan. (h/t @metaquest)
.@BRRubin nailed it.

"At Camp David, separate meetings with each side would then lead to a grand announcement by Trump.

The Taliban leaders, however, compared the proposal to the Americans’ tricking them into political suicide."

I know everyone is clamoring to start the impeachment process & I want Donald out as much as anyone else because each day brings new & more more dispicable behavior. BUT, I know that we have to allow Congress the time they need to do this right & I believe they’ve got this.
/1
We’ve already seen that Speaker Pelosi has the ability to play Donald like a fiddle. She’s said that Donald isn’t worth it & that impeaching him isn’t good for the Dems politically... that might be true, but I believe there’s more.
/2
First, let’s go back in history for the first impeachment in recent memory (the one that didn’t involve a sexual relationship) Watergate. The Watergate hearings in the senate started in May 1973 & didn’t complete until a year later.

1. Big decode: “#StealthBombers and #StupidQuestions”: @POTUS just gave us a hint! Abby Phillips asks, “Do you expect Whittaker to rein in the #Mueller probe?” He replies, “That is such a stupid question.” Mueller is the #StealthBomber!!! Here’s why:
2. First, news is, #Mueller’s ready with some indictments. Take it from the #FakeNews publication with the most executive resignations, whose office was raided by the Manhattan district attorney’s office. #Newsweek They ought ya know about indictments, right??
3. Bo may know Football and Baseball, but #Newsweek knows #Resignations and... thedailybeast.com/newsweek-guts-…

This article has provoked a lot of commentary today. Most of the commentary from the the left has been alarmist, though some (like @SethAbramson) have been dismissive. I don’t think either response is appropriate. 1/16
There was every reason to expect that Mueller would go into action again shortly after the election; we didn’t need this article to know that. 2/16
