We are now at the stage of “ok Tucker didn’t make it up fully but the NSA spied on Russians and Tucker was just an incidental pick up. He was not the target.”

It’s a backdoor spying but still spying.

How long before we learn that the NSA did more than just this?
Now @JonahDispatch is spinning that he claimed the NSA isn’t spying on Tucker and the latest news does not change it.

1. Spying via backdoor is spying.

2. You dismissed it fully in a diff tweet!

3. Your tweet didn’t say “NSA isn’t targeting Tucker but maybe it was incidental.”
It went from “haha on Tucker’s claim that the NSA read his emails” to “it was incidental; not targeted.”

Down the road we will learn it was an ongoing effort but for “good” reason.

We were told Flynn was incidental. It turned out to be more on him; on Page; on Manafort et al.
@kerpen @LeeSmithDC Moving the conversation from “it never happened” to “it did happen but for good reason,” does not address the fact that @TuckerCarlson knew about it because his info was spread around. “Incidental spying” is supposedly air tight. But his name was unmasked.
@JonahDispatch If this was just incidental, it would have not gotten back to @TuckerCarlson because incidental spying has rules to shut it down/keep it secret to a selective few. So MAYBE it started from incidental but more sinister stuff were at play such as unmasking.

@BOENYC The NYC Board of Elections counted 135,000 test ballots together with real ballots and released “results” without anyone at BOE noticing.

Trump lost the WH by 43,000 votes spread in 3 states and he is corroding democracy if he has concerns about the integrity of those numbers.
@BOENYC You are run off of social media platforms if you raise doubts bout 2020 with margins much smaller than the 135,000 “oops” by the NYC BOE that no one there noticed until after counting and releasing it.
The Rank Choice Vote count that the BOE released was the TENTH count. They kept on redoing the count until all but two candidates remained all while not noticing that 135,000 votes being counted are “tests.” Those numbers were released without anyone at BOE noticing it.

Lack of prosecution = exoneration.

Lack of recommending Congress to prosecute = exoneration.

It’s not a 50-50 when a prosecutor does not prosecute and court fails to convict.

It’s 0.

There is nothing.

On paper this is the US where people are innocent except if convicted.
Twitter Moments states as a fact that the Mueller Report did not exonerate Trump despite the above facts because we are being propagandized from tech to media.

And @brithume still thinks Trump narrowly lost 3 states because of his tweets.
@JoyceWhiteVance Get this from The Mueller Report: "The investigation did not establish that members of the Trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities.”

22 running amok couldn’t establish basic collusion.

Since the start of 2020, more than 46,000 US children under the age of 18 died of all causes while 315 died with Coronavirus. That’s 0.68% of all children deaths which is a smaller fraction of the 600K Coronavirus deaths.

70% of the population without the kids can B vaccinated. ImageImage
Not going to tag her because it would be nasty to pounce on her nephew’s death the way people did on Herman Cain’s.

Public pressure caused her to lean on her brother to go for it for his young son; an age group that has the low COVID-19 outcome that it has as written above.
Burages echoed @djrothkopf’s tweet in December. Did David see the update (attached)?

More than 46,000 children in the US died of all causes since the start of 2020 and 315 were with Coronavirus.

315 out of 46,000 children deaths.

315 out of 600K Coronavirus deaths nationwide. ImageImage

Think for a moment that it’s May 2012 and Tea Parties riot outside the White House so wild that POTUS Obama needs to be taken to the bunker and the military brought in to restore order.

Would it be called an insurrection or would it be “haha Obama for running to the bunker”?
People stormed Senate buildings in Sep-Oct of 2018 to try to stop the sacred moment of approving a new SCOTUS Justice. More than 400 were arrested (120 one day in Sep; 293 one day in Oct).

My point? Nothing is but for what it’s called. This was not called an insurrection.
PDs were burned down last year and so was a federal court building. Both those institutions uphold our (on-paper) “democracy.” This means that attacking those is an attack on democracy; the start of a localized insurrection. Is it packaged this way by media/GOP? Sure not!

Why didn’t Obama, Biden, Pelosi and Schumer make Juneteenth a federal holiday a decade ago?

Oh, because this day came into big focus only when Trump had planned to return campaigning on 6/19/20. Storm ensued so he pushed off by one day.

To own Trump, a federal holiday was born.
Check the Twitter feed of many congressional Dems, TV heads and pundits. They literally never sent a tweet about Juneteenth before it became an issue to own Trump last year.

Now it’s a federal holding.

Ya, if only Trump tweeted less.
You think I am joking? Before Trump tried hosting a rally on #Juneteenth last year, @SpeakerPelosi’s account had tweeted only 4 times abut this day in all her years on Twitter.

Last year, she tweeted another 4 times; more than all years until then combined.

Now it’s a holiday!

Trump was the victim of a blackmail attempt in 2016 to which he paid money to make it go away. Instead of going after the blackmailers, prosecutors used it as a gateway to turn Trump’s and Trump Org’s papers upside down with the goal and until they find something.

But NAVALNY!
According to NY law you need to keep accurate business records even if it has no tax implications. For example, if you pay $140,000 ransom to blackmailers through your attorney, and you file it as legal fees instead of marketing (or the other way around), it’s a misdemeanor.
You are wondering “is such a payment legal fees or marketing?” Exactly! It can be either which is why “business records” it’s not a felony and is rarely prosecuted.

Trump Org’s classification of the payouts to the blackmailers is where the Manhattan DA started his investigation.
