Okay. I’m about to go WAY out on a limb into super space beans territory. Remember the failed coup in Venezuela orchestrated by Giuliani with former Erik Prince goons? What if “group 2” with the tactical gear and flex cuffs were former Blackwater? Yes, I sound crazy.
I need @SethAbramson to talk me off this ledge.
It explains the Giuliani involvement and the trump pardons of the Blackwater war criminals. Not to mention the medal of freedom to Nunes and how his aide ended up in a top pentagon position. Oh, and Erik Prince’s sister resigning. BUT IM CRAZY, YEAH?
And let’s not forget that Giuliani met with Brian Benczkowski (former Alfa Bank lawyer and head of the DoJ criminal division) to lobby for a pardon of his Venezuelan pal.

THREAD: Okay. I'm about to get SUPER space beans tin foil hat on you, so stop reading if you're not into that. Based on what we're learning from public reporting, the pentagon curtailed the response to the trump coup. 1/ washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
We also know from video and public reporting that there were two groups that stormed the capitol. 1) weird-ass bystanders and 2) possibly armed ex-military members with tactical gear and flex cuffs 2/
We also know there was a failed coup attempt in Venezuela orchestrated by Giuliani and former members of Blackwater, an Erik Prince joint. 3/ rollingstone.com/culture/cultur…

THREAD: While Mitch McConnell and Steve Mnuchin whine about having to send us $600 in a half-assed effort to help those struggling with food and rent, this administration is about to garnish the wages of millions of Americans, including service members starting next month. 1/
As we all know, this year trump signed an executive order saying employers could have a "payroll tax holiday" (sounds SO LOVELY!!) What this did was allow businesses to stop deducting and paying into Social Security. 2/
Many employers didn't opt in, but trump FORCED military and government employees to stop paying into social security. Republicans beat their drums about this saying they were the BEST EVER and called it a PAY RAISE. 3/ forbes.com/sites/shaharzi…

@page88 I have an incredible story about my father possibly working for the CIA in the late 60s that I recently learned about.
@page88 When the Atlantic story dropped about trump calling war dead and veterans suckers and losers, I penned a tweet about my dad, who had died at 46 due to exposure to agent Orange in Vietnam. It went viral and was featured in WaPo, and many reached out wanting to know more.
@page88 I didn’t have any additional info about his agent Orange exposure, so I called my mom. She told me an INCREDIBLE story. She told me about his job as a cryptologist in the Air Force working miles below ground. In 1967, he was moved from Hickam to Wheeler on Oahu for KRSOC.

THREAD/DREAM JOB (please RT/share): If I could have any job in the @JoeBiden admin I would want to help rebuild & restore the VA Office of Accountability & Whistleblower Protection (OAWP). In Oct 2019 the VA Inspector General issued this scathing report 1/ va.gov/oig/pubs/VAOIG…
The IG found that the OAWP misinterpreted its statutory mandate resulting in failures to act within its investigative authority. Instead of protecting whistleblowers and investigating bad actors, it INVESTIGATED whistleblowers and PROTECTED bad actors. 2/
Further, the OAWP did not consistently conduct procedurally sound, accurate, thorough, and Unbiased investigations, and the IG found that the VA struggled with implementing the Act’s enhanced authority to hold appointees accountable. 3/

THREAD: Mueller will appear in his first interview, a two-parter, this week on The Oath with Chuck Rosenberg. Here's what I wish he would address. FIRST: why didn't you follow the money? Here's what I think we might hear: 1/
I think they DID follow SOME of the money. We recently learned about a secret fourth team headed up by Ahmad and Van Grack and they investigated a $10M payment from Egypt to trump in the waning days of the 2016 election. 1/ cnn.com/2020/10/14/pol…
This investigative reporting says that Egypt was PART of the "follow the money" team, so there could have been other aspects of that investigation. We may learn from Mueller WHY this never made it into the report. I imagine (speculative) that could be for a couple of reasons 3/

A REMINDER ABOUT PARDONS: you don’t have to be charged to be pardoned. Trump pardoned Flynn of all federal criminal behavior. He can’t be charged for anything he did before today. He can’t be pardoned for future crimes. The pardon CAN be fought in court by Biden’s DoJ. 1/
This doesn’t cover any state crimes but Flynn hasn’t (yet) been charged by a state. This ALSO doesn’t cover Flynn’s SON’S crimes which may have been dealt away for Flynn’s cooperation. Flynn’s son can still be charged. 2/
If Biden’s DOJ charges Flynn with a crime he committed before today (like FARA), Flynn would file a motion to dismiss because of his pardon, and the DOJ could then challenge the legality of the pardon in court. Or not. 3/
