🚨Fmr #NYPD Commissioner Bernie Kerik turned over some documents to the @January6thCmte but withheld numerous others, including one titled “DRAFT LETTER FROM @POTUS TO SEIZE EVIDENCE IN THE INTEREST OF NATIONAL SECURITY FOR THE 2020 ELECTIONS.”
Kerik’s lawyer provided the “privilege log” to the #Jan6thCommittee saying the file originated on 12/17, a day before Trump huddled in the WH w/advisers including Misha Flynn, where they *discussed seizing election equipment* in states whose results Trump was attempting to throw.
Another file provided by Kerik included emails btwn Kerik & others about paying for rooms at the Willard Hotel. Kerik wasn subpoenaed by the #Jan6thCommittee into the Willard Hotel “war room,” where Trump cronies plotted to prevent Congress from certifying @JoeBiden’s victory.🧐
A 22-page "STRATEGIC COMMUNICATIONS PLAN—GIULIANI PRESIDENTIAL LEGAL DEFENSE TEAM" describes a 10-day blitz aimed at @GOP House & Senate members to pressure them to vote against certifying the 2020 election results, focused on 6 swing states: AZ, GA, MI, NV, PA & WI.
The plot’s primary channels to disseminate disinformation included "presidential tweets" as well as talk radio, conservative bloggers, social media influencers, Trump campaign volunteers and other media allies.🙄
The plot also described actions the #seditionists intended to organize, including "protests at weak members' homes," "protests at local officials homes/offices" and "protests in DC - rally for key House and Senate members."
Yet more DAMNING evidence of the plot by Trump and his cronies to overthrow the election.
No matter your political beliefs, at best, NONE of this can be construed as “normal” during free and fair elections. At worst, this looks like a premeditated, seditious coup attempt.🤬
🚨BREAKING: Jury finds Harvard chemist Charles Lieber GUILTY of making false statements about participating in a #China-govt program to attract foreign scientists, failing to declare income earned in China & failing to report a Chinese bank account.🧐
#China had money to spend—“that’s 1 of the things China uses to try to seduce people.”~Lieber
But money wasn’t the reason. By training young scientists in his technology, he hoped to burnish his credentials.
“This is embarrassing. Every scientist wants to win a #NobelPrize.”
A key issue was a joint venture that Lieber launched in 2011 w/#Wuhan University of Technology.
A 3-year contract with #China gave him $50,000/month, ~$150,000 in living expenses and >$1.5 million for a laboratory, called the WUT-Harvard Joint Nano Key Laboratory.🤨
The records Trump is trying to hide include: working papers from then-White House chief of Staff Mark Meadows, the press secretary and a WH lawyer who had **notes and memos about Trump's efforts to undermine the election**.💥
🔥In the Meadows documents alone, there are **3 handwritten notes about the events of January 6 and 2 pages listing briefings and telephone calls about the Electoral College certification**.
▶️Daily presidential diaries
▶️Drafts of his election-related speeches
▶️Records of his phone calls
▶️Handwritten notes and files of top aides politico.com/news/2021/10/3…
Per the National Archives, Trump is trying to block ~750 of 1,600 pages relevant to the #January6th investigation, including hundreds of pages from “multiple binders of [Kayleigh McEnany] made up almost entirely of talking points & statements related to the 2020 election.”🧐
The National Archives indicated that many files were drawn from key Trump aides including former Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, adviser Stephen Miller and deputy counsel Patrick Philbin.
If no one did anything wrong, WHY ARE THEY SO DESPERATE TO HIDE THEIR RECORDS?🤷🏼♀️
🔥Beryl Howell—chief judge of the DC federal court—thrashed DOJ for giving “petty offense” plea deals to #January6th defendants who she said tarnished America’s reputation in the world and enabled violent rioters to threaten the peaceful transfer of power. politico.com/news/2021/10/2…
“The rioters attacking the Capitol were NOT mere trespassers engaging in protected 1st Amendment conduct. They were not merely disorderly—countless videos show the mob that attacked the Capitol was VIOLENT. Everyone participating in the mob contributed to that violence.”💥
BINGO👉🏼“The damage to the reputation of our democracy, which is usually held up around the world…that reputation suffered because of #January6th,” noting that the #insurrectionists chased lawmakers & Mike Pence into hiding, and sent staffers ducking under their desks for cover.

‼️#Facebook programmed its algorithm that decides what people see in their news feeds to push content likely to make them ANGRY, treating ANGRY emoji reactions 5x more valuable than “likes.”
Anger kept users more engaged, making #Facebook more money.🤬
#Facebook’s researchers warned that favoring “controversial” posts—including those making users angry—could open “the door to more spam/abuse/clickbait.”
2 yrs later, posts that sparked ANGRY reaction emoji were more likely to have disinformation, toxicity and low-quality news🙄
“Anger and hate is the easiest way to grow on #Facebook,” testified whistleblower @FrancesHaugen to British Parliament.
