Every now and then a take it so bad that makes you literally shake your head in disbelief. Such seems to be the case among those who would tell you Andrew Jackson is getting a bad rap and is, in this case, been "unfairly smeared."

Pull up a chair. 1/
Jackson emerged on the national scene during something called the Redstick War, or Creek Civil War. The war broke out in Creek Indian towns for a multitude of reasons, but largely over the changing nature of what it meant to be "Creek" in the nation. 2/
By 1813 the Creeks were the most powerful nation in the Southeast and the largest check on American expansion. Americans watched the war in present-day Georgia and Alabama and waited. When Americans were killed at Fort Mims on August 30, 1813, they finally had an excuse. 3/

13 Rules for Twitterlife.

A Christmas Twitter series based on the adventures of a twitter-addict, who made all the mistakes personally. And learned the rules the hard way. Basic idea is obviously and conveniently stolen from the eminent Doctor @jordanbpeterson.
To be honest. I myself don’t follow these rules perfectly. But at least I know I should do better. I had 16 rules turned it down to 13, simply because Twitter wouldn't allow more. Here we go!
Rule one

Be gentle to unfriendly people.

Before yelling back or blocking. Identify friend or foe. Glance at their TL and follow count.
People who suddenly raid your timeline with unfriendly cries or replies could be upset about your opinion or just merely unhappy>

#thread This may surprise many, but one of the richest books of Christian Theological insight (in my opionon) is the Exorcist by Peter Blatty. The movie too has some strong theological insight as well. Here are some of my favorite moments from each.
"What we give to the poor is what we take with us when we die."
“What seemed like morning was the beginning of endless night.”

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.

Here is a #thread on what PMO needs us to believe with their - and Wernick’s - statements about the Dec 19 Wernick-JWR call, about which PMO says it was never briefed (cough):
That the Clerk failed to brief out the one item on his call with JWR (SNC), something the PM was in a mood about, something the PM had spoken to Wernick about that very day. Because holidays.
(This, let’s remember, is the SNC call the PM *asked* the Clerk to make the *day after* PMO (Butts-Telford) hauled in JWR’s chief of staff to tell her to get in line (ie DPA) on SNC)
