🔥Federal prosecutors are investigating whether Matt Gaetz *obstructed justice* during a phone call he had with a witness in the child #SexTrafficking case being built against him.
The obstruction probe stems from a phone call the witness had w/Gaetz’s ex-girlfriend (fmr Capitol Hill intern), who patched Gaetz into the call—Gaetz’s ex-girlfriend & the witness are friends with the trafficked girl.
Gaetz’s ex-girlfriend, who was on the call in question, is seeking an #immunity deal from prosecutors and has expressed fears that she may have obstructed justice. She told friends that she feared the alleged trafficking victim may have recorded her in another phone call.🧐
Gaetz dated his ex-GF in 2017 & 2018—“they had an open relationship that involved other women, including the one involved in the 3-way call under examination from prosecutors.”
Those 2 women joined Gaetz and others—including the sex-trafficking victim—on a jaunt to the Bahamas🧐
Greenberg is already cooperating with the Feds, and the #SexTrafficking victim also appears to be cooperating.
Though Gaetz’s ex-GF has not yet signed an #immunity deal, she is expected to do so by the end of June.
Meaning: July could be a prime time for Gaetz to be indicted.😎

🚨BREAKING: The FBI is investigating @USPS Postmaster General Louis DeJoy in connection with alleged ILLEGAL campaign fundraising activity involving his former business.
Prosecutors also issued a subpoena to DeJoy himself for information.😎
.@washingtonpost published how employees at DeJoy’s former company say they were pressured by DeJoy or his aides to attend political fundraisers or make contributions to @GOP candidates, and then were reimbursed via bonuses.
5 people who worked for Dejoy's firm New Breed Logistics said they were pressured by DeJoy or his aides to write checks & attend fundraisers at his mansion. 2 employees said DeJoy then instructed that bonus payments be boosted to help defray the cost of their contributions.🧐
🚨BREAKING: hackers linked to #Russian🇷🇺intel have breached @USAID’s @ConstantContact account in an ONGOING ATTACK to send spearphishing emails to >3,000 accounts at >150 organizations—many such groups have been critical of Putin’s human rights violations. nytimes.com/2021/05/28/us/…
Microsoft says #Nobelium is behind the attack—the same #Russian🇷🇺hackers behind the #SolarWinds hack that was the work of the SVR, a spinoff from the KGB.
The SVR was behind the hack of the @DNC in 2016, and attacks on the Pentagon, the WH email system and the State Department🤬
#Russia’s🇷🇺latest cyberattack began after @POTUS imposed new sanctions on #Russian individuals and assets for the #SolarWinds cyberattack—including restrictions on purchasing #Russia’s sovereign debt, making it more difficult for Russia to raise money & support its currency.
2 new studies show that immunity to the #coronavirus lasts at least a year—possibly a lifetime—and improves over time especially after #COVIDVaccination.
**This does NOT mean that people who have been infected can skip vaccines**.🧵
Researchers studied people infected with the #coronavirus about a year earlier. B-cells with a memory of the virus persist in the bone marrow & can make antibodies when needed. These memory B cells continue to mature & STRENGTHEN for at least 12 months after the 1st infection.🤗
The studies suggest that most people who have recovered from #COVID19 and were later immunized may have "bulletproof" protection *against #coronavirus variants* & may not need boosters.
People vaccinated but never infected most likely will need booster shots for new variants.💉
🔥Manhattan's DA has convened a special grand jury to decide whether to INDICT Donald Trump, his kids + other Trump Org execs &/or the firm with CRIMINAL charges.
Justice is coming—and a federal #pardon won’t save them from NY State charges.😎
The move indicates that DA Vance’s investigation of Trump and Trump “has reached an advanced stage” after >2 years—and suggests that Vance “believes he has found evidence of a CRIME” — by Trump and/or someone close to him or Trump Org.💥
DA Vance’s broad probe includes whether Trump Org LIED about the value of its real estate properties to defraud banks (#BankFraud) and insurance companies (#InsuranceFraud), and if any tax benefits were gotten illegally (#TaxFraud).
I called for an investigation of the #coronavirus origins—Dr Fauci agrees & is “not convinced” it developed naturally.
“I think we should continue to investigate what went on in China until we continue to find out to the best of our ability what happened” thehill.com/changing-ameri…
Multiple scientists have called for a full and transparent investigation of the origins of the #coronavirus.
After millions of deaths, including nearly 600,000 Americans, we deserve to know how this plague evolved.
The NYAG’s and Manhattan DA Vance’s probes include Weisselberg’s personal taxes, his role at Trump Org, his personal finances, and benefits given to his son Barry, a longtime Trump Org employee who allegedly got >$500,000 of untaxed benefits.🧐
