THREAD 6 pages 501-600 of the 966 page Senate Intelligence Committee’s #Volume5 counterintelligence report into Russian interference. In these pages we learn of many tentacles Russian intel had in trump campaign. Please read this report for yourself and draw your own conclusions.
Pg 508. While Papadopolous was trying to get a meeting between trump and Putin, at least one member of the trump inner circle knew enough to question whether there might be any legal implications for private citizens working with foreign governments. Michael Flynn, didn’t know? Image
Pg 509 is for anyone who claims there was no proper predicate to investigate Papadopoulis for liaising with foreign help to establish ties to Putin. This seems like a good reason to see what he was up to. Even if the reason they investigated was to see what Mifsud was up to. Image
Pg 522 Another reminder of just what the stakes are. You’ve no doubt heard about the poisonings of Litvenenko, Skripal, Kara-Murza, Navalny. This is not a game. These are things that are happening. Each of the aforementioned were working for Democracy. Image
Pg 523 is an insight into the psyche and how information, misinformation and disinformation can all lead to fixations for small periods. When was the last time you heard about Amazon owning Washington Post? That’s the thing about tropes, they’re dragged out only when necessary. Image
Pg 536 Read this page and recall Papadopolous told an Australian whom he was drinking with that he knew about Hillary’s emails. Don’t forget, you have been told he was a coffee boy. Image
Pg 539 If by now you are still of the opinion, lying to the FBI is acceptable, you’re rooting for the bad guys. Mifsud never returned to the US and has not been questioned. Image
Pg 562 Sanctions? A question to Carter Page about sanctions? You know by now troops, ‘sanctions means’ Magnitsky Act. Weird how the topic of ‘sanctions’, kept coming up with Page, Flynn, jr. It’s like Russia wanted Magnitsky Act eliminated in exchange for trump’s election. Image
Pg 564 Enter Maria Butina. But, I thought Carter Page was an energy expert giving speeches for oil conglomerates, why would a Russian gun rights activist who fell in love with felon Paul Erickson sent to Russia after her arrest, want to know how to feel about Page? Image
A quick character reminder, Paul Erickson plead guilty to wire fraud and money laundering. Butina used Ericksons influence to get close to the recently indicted NRA. He got sentenced to 7 years, she got sent home. @NewYorkStateAG might want to see if he has anything to offer.
Pg 582 As I read #Vol5 I am taking it page by page and writing thoughts as they come. I’m trying to give it straight so pages like this are good, as they are validating. The NRA, the Republican Party. This is a good time to remind everyone this was released by Senate Republicans. Image
Pg 596 what is it with Nat Sec Advisors and meeting with Russian Intelligence agents? Footnotes troops. They tell us John Bolton, the man who would not provide testimony during impeachment, shot a video for a Russian agent!
Where is the media on this? Image
#Volume5 counterintelligence report is no joke. It is fact after fact, contact after contact. This 100 pages revealed the amount of operations that were seemingly in play. Not just Papadopoulis trying to get HRC email, but also Butina’s ‘sanctions’ and NRA activities.
This must be taken seriously. This is a Republican report telling us there were attempts, the redactions are more than attempts I surmise, to influence, connect or otherwise insert Russian agents with Republican law makers. Did they succeed? Republicans from Wi[REDACTED] maybe?
The information contained in this report is what can be proven. They have the receipts on what they are reporting out. This is what is true. This was a Republican lead investigation. Please read this report. Use critical thinking and vote accordingly.
#Volume5
Hopefully now that the conventions are over, the media will begin to report on #Volume5 It really needs to be known far and wide. @AshaRangappa_ @ericgarland @ZevShalev @LincolnsBible @maddow @MaddowBlog

We are in the Both Sides Era. For what seems the past decade, we have been subjected to both sides of the news, normalizing the weird, accepting the inappropriate, and moving on from the unforgivable.
Both sides are not the same.

A wee Sunday morning coffee🧵👇🏻
We have been so conditioned to Both Sides everything that we immediately fall into one side or the other. We are sorting ourselves based on memes and shallow thinking. Reporters complaining about hotel experiences due to the DNC running late, isn’t news. That’s a yelp review.
Have you noticed trump is on both sides of every issue? Probably not, because the “press hasn’t yet learned how to report on trump.” Why is covering trump any different from what they learned in journalism school?

Why not ask him about his incongruities? Or a follow up question?

Did you ever hear the phrase: “they have so much money they don’t know what to do with it.”? Not a problem, I’ve ever run into myself, but Project 2025 is just that. Billionaires want to be bankers. They want to sell off our governmental oversight to private companies they own.
Here is Project 2025. There isn’t one part of our lives this won’t touch. Think it doesn’t mean you? There is no provision to exclude from its effects those who vote for fascism so choose your candidate wisely.

Here is the part where they will abolish the federal reserve. It will be replaced by currency they can “create” and then lend out at their own interest rates. Image

“There is no place for political violence” has been a pretty common refrain throughout the weekend. It really got me thinking. ”Political violence” must be one of those “you know it when you see it” types of things.

Let’s see…
🧵👇🏻
Political violence strikes me as a visual medium but there are so many things that occur before we see the blood that I think might be political violence. Are we just numb to it? How do we define what is political violence and what is just violence? Why is it different?
Are Texas Gov Greg Abbott’s razor balls floating in the river, considered “political violence”? Kind of. I mean, the idea is people from south of the US shouldn’t be allowed to come here and take our jobs.
Political.

To deter from this, razor balls in the river.
Violence.

There’s been a lot said about Joe Biden since the debate. I, along with so many of you, watched it play out in real time as respected news transmitters read out ‘inside texts’ from knee jerk reactionaries.
After much thought, I won’t be voting for Joe Biden because he’s old.
🧵👇🏻
I’ll be voting for Joe Biden because he’s team democracy. I’m voting for ideas he represents. I’m voting for the team of people he can put together. I’m voting for my own interests and for your ability to vote for your own interests. I didn’t vote for him last time either, btw.
In 2020, I voted for a November 5th, 2024 election. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris were the only options on the ballot that allowed this. I colored in Joe and Kamala’s bubble to keep the lights on long enough for us to have this election. Like many of you, I voted team democracy.

I am loathe to do predictions. However, there are some things you just can’t help but see coming. Project 2025 is a blinking red alarm and we all need to be aware of the stakes of this election. Please familiarize yourself with EO11246, be discriminating voters.

A wee thread🧵👇🏻
On September 24th, 1965 President Lyndon Johnson signed Executive Order 11246. EO11246 established Equal Opportunity Employment. It includes Non-Discrimination in Government. It includes Non-Discrimination Employment by Government Contractors and Subcontractors.
Focus on Non-Discrimination Employment by Government Contractors and Subcontractors. In Sub Part B under Contractor’s Agreements, contractors agree to not discriminate against employees based on race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin.

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Trust me…
🧵👇🏻
The above is the oath the President takes at 12 noon on January 20. Typically, it is administered by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court but there is no law that makes that a requirement. You could have your gran do it. So why is it *usually* the Chief Justice?
For this thread let’s assume the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court is there as a symbol of the law. Chief Justice Roberts in a way represents the Judicial Branch of our government on the day it grants power to the person who will symbolize the Executive Branch.
