THREAD: Don't let Trump's lies fool you. A bipartisan majority of the Senate have condemned Trump's extortion scheme.
The only difference is Republicans are willing to let him get away with it.
Here are the ones who know what they're about to do is wrong:
themoscowproject.org/dispatch/trump…
Lamar Alexander: alexander.senate.gov/public/index.c…
Ben Sasse: nytimes.com/live/2020/trum…
Richard Burr: newsobserver.com/news/politics-…
Lisa Murkowski: thehill.com/homenews/senat…
Rob Portman: portman.senate.gov/newsroom/press…
They know what Trump did—pressuring Ukraine to announce investigations of his political opponents in exchange for military aid and a White House meeting—was wrong. themoscowproject.org/dispatch/trump…
If they vote to acquit him on Wednesday, they are knowingly signing off not only on Trump’s most recent attack on American democracy but on his future attacks as well.

Another one: Susan Collins thinks what Trump did was "wrong."
Instead of holding him accountable, she's voting to give him complete impunity.

"Prosecutors across the United States, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to avoid reprisals, said this week that they had already been wary of working on any case that might catch Mr. Trump’s attention."
nytimes.com/2020/02/12/us/…
"The Stone episode only deepened their concern. They also said that they were worried that Mr. Barr might not support them in politically charged cases." nytimes.com/2020/02/12/us/…
"Mr. Barr and his lieutenants intervened on Tuesday hours after Mr. Trump assailed the original sentencing recommendation of seven to nine years in a middle-of-the-night Twitter eruption."

After Trump attacked his own prosecutors on Twitter for daring to hold Roger Stone accountable for his crimes, the DOJ is now scaling back its sentencing recommendation.
Guess he found his Roy Cohn in Bill Barr after all.
As DOJ officials pull back on—and harshly attack—the sentencing recommendation for Roger Stone, a top prosecutor on the case is withdrawing from it. cnn.com/2020/02/11/pol…
Zelinksy, who worked on Mueller's team and helped prosecute Stone after Mueller's investigation ended, has also resigned from the DOJ "effective immediately."

Reminder: FISA surveillance on Carter Page only came *after* he left the campaign.
There’s also no evidence it contributed to the part of Mueller’s findings that put Trump’s campaign chairman, national security adviser, personal lawyer, and top political adviser in jail.
We’d also love to know whether he also thinks the part of the investigation that revealed a “sweeping and systemic” attack on our democracy is a hoax. His efforts to get the CrowdStrike conspiracy theory investigated sure suggest he does.
Meanwhile, nobody’s ever quite explained how the Russia investigation, whose existence wasn’t revealed until months after Trump took office, was meant to destroy his candidacy.

It has been suggested that Private Equity firm KKR is responsible for #CafeCoffeDay founder #VGSiddhartha's suicide.

The firm has come under scanner in our research in many aspects of National Security as well.

Here is a thread on the various operations of KKR in India
As per the report MO of foreign PE firms like KKR is to borrow money from Indian Banks at 8-9% and then lend it to Indian businesses at a whopping 20-25% - the high rates of interest makes it difficult for native business to survive or remain profitable to repay the lenders.
KKR is the second largest foreign PE investor in #CCD with 6.07% (1.28 crore shares) after selling approx 4.25% in Feb 2018, making at the time 10.3%. Foreign investors together hold 22.35% stake in #CafeCoffeeDay valued at Rs 724 crore.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed
