Michigan has the highest #coronavirus death rate in America @DavidJHarrisJr. But Candi isn't satisfied - she seems to want that death rate even higher.
“It is about Russia. Full stop.”
- James Baker’s (FBI GC) congressional testimony.
As @benjaminwittes lays out, this was not investigation into Trump or his campaign. It was a counterintelligence investigation, under which Trump’s people fell.
That’s a BIG distinction.

IF we see this all as ONE UMBRELLA CASE into Russia’s breech of our National Security, then EVERYTHING under it, IS PART of that threat.
Collusion & Obstruction are NOT separate, they are part of ONE pattern.
Obstruction IS Collusion. And together, they are a conspiracy.
I just had a super interesting exchange with Alan Dershowitz via text messages.
After calling his office today and letting his asst. know I had some research questions for him, he called my cell.
He didn’t want to set a time to talk, so we went back and forth on texts. 1/
It should be noted that ANY time, Alan could have just blocked my number.
For example, once asked him about his curious stance that “lying to the FBI is not in fact a crime,” he could’ve just said fuck off, blocked me, and that would’ve been it.
That’s not what happened.

When I asked him to defend his position that false statements to the FBI did not in fact violate Section 1001 of the US Code, he told me to read his OpEd in @TheHill. I did. It answered little.
I told him so. He asked me to Cute [sic] cases contradicting him.
I once EP’d a film called:
This Film Is Not Yet Rated.
It exposed how the @MPAA favors films from their owners, and punishes indies, favors war, punishes sex, favors straight, punishes gay, favors white, and punishes POC.
You see, a film that gets an NC-17 rating is blocked from most theaters, even prohibited from advertising in most outlets.
So an NC-17 rating can cost a film millions.
Now, ask yourself, why did these two films get different ratings?
Joan Graves oversaw and created the system of ratings that gave The King’s Speech an R rating for saying the word “Fuck,” but gave The Expendables 3 a PG-13.
King’s had no nudity, sex, violence or drug use. It was about... a speech.
