"A New York-based Republican political consultant who was approached for a job with the Trump campaign told The Post that Lewandowski openly discussed the role a super PAC would play to support Trump’s candidacy in two meetings in the spring." 1/4
“The super PAC definitely came up in these conversations,” said Cheri Jacobus, who said she met with Lewandowski in mid-May and early June at the Trump Tower in Manhattan to discuss a possible job as a communications director. 2/4
“He mentioned it as part of, ‘This is what’s going on, this is when he plans to announce, the super PAC is in play,’ ” said Jacobus, who has managed several congressional races and previously worked for the Republican National Committee. 3/4
"Lewandowski noted that his meetings with Jacobus occurred before Trump officially declared his candidacy. Trump’s political team eventually decided to pursue a traditional campaign and not to bless a super PAC, he said." 4/4
(Lewandowski lied through his teeth and got caught)

I'd like to share some of the many tweets Michael Caputo tweeted as I had two family members lying in hospitals a continent apart. I responded and he had the fake Jack Posobiec bot & troll army swarm their right wing pal at USA Today (2nd run at me after first effort failed) 1/8
I'm sick and tired of MAGAs acting like abusers and the rest of us have to tiptoe around them and pretend they're not lying, pretend they are informed, pretend they aren't racist, immoral, evil assholes. 1/9
They loudly proclaim their devotion to a lying, cheating, pig of an authoritarian responsible for the ruin of our nation and the death of 220k Americans. They like to intimidate non-Trump cultists into silence, daring us to challenge them & trigger their violent insanity. 2/9
That is their goal -- to drive non-MAGAts into hiding and to silence us. They choose to limit their knowledge and information, because at some level they know. They. Know. 3/9
Barr, Caputo, Grenell, DeJoy -- all installed for nefarious reasons. When unqualified, out-of-the-box names pop up for key posts with Trump, they're to destroy us. These are criminals, thugs & traitors. Dems need to address Trump as a criminal, not just a political opponent 1/6
Grenell was "acting" DNI to consolidate election security intel under DNI so Trump/Putin could cut off intel to Congress to clear the way for Putin to cheat. With no Q & A by Congress, briefers can't give the truth. Lying to Cong would earn them prison. So, no briefings. 2/6
DeJoy was installed at USPS to remove mail boxes and destroy mail sorting machines in order to cheat for Trump by burying Biden votes. By the time we caught on, it was too late. 3/6
Just b4 judge announced decision on my defamation lawsuit against Trump, he (Trump) tried to use/verify/launder info from my hacked email to find out where I was spending most of my time so he cld force a venue change, claiming I wasn't in NY. When his thugs failed, this happened
The FBI (SDNY) was already investigating the hacking of my email that occurred just as POLITICO was calling Team Trump for comment for a big investigative piece they were about to publish on the "catfishing" of me that clearly pointed at Trump thugs.
Catfishing began the day I publicly confirmed a Wash Post report that Trump had a super PAC and was lying when he claimed he was self-funding. I wasn't the source for the piece. But he had Ailes immediately ban me at FOX after approx 1500 appearances over the course of 15 years.
Thread: We knew in 2015 Trump wasn't a billionaire -- not even close. Media covered for him. Remember in 2015 I confirmed a Washington Post report that Trump was NOT self funding and had a super PAC even though he claimed he didn't and was slamming his GOP rivals' super PACs?1/9
When I publicly confirmed the WaPo piece was right and that Lewandowski told me about the superPAC when th Trump camp approached me to be comms dir, Trump ordered FOX to ban me. I was canceled on that day. FOX pushed the lie that Trump was rich, self-funding & had no superPAC 2/9
The catfishing of me began that day. A Colorado connection to the catfisher we later found. "Coincidentally" Lewandowski pal who ran the Trump superPAC, Mike Ciletti, was based in Colorado, as was a former DHS & NASA cyber guy who left DC, moved to CO as a private hire 3/9
Remember when @michaelrcaputo lied under oath to Congress abt his contact/collusion w/Russians, cursed at Congress "damn you all to hell!" and claimed Dems forced him to cash his daughters' college funds to pay lawyers? Then exploited his kids for cash in gofundme accts? 1/10
and how 6 days before WaPost broke the story tht Mueller caught him lying to Congress abt his contact w/ Russian, Henry Greenberg, @michaelrcaputo quickly changed his longtime Miami P.O. BOX address in this tiny room where the Russian also "just happened" to have a P.O. BOX? 2/10
And how when I called him out for dragging his daughters into the spotlight and using them to raise cash, he launched his #BitterChildlessAlone twitter campaign against me with gifs showing me committing suicide, as a cat lady, a barfly, etc? 3/10
