1) Reminder that Reid's letters to FBI Dir Comey regarding Trump - the first on Aug. 27, 2016 & the other on October 30, 2016 - originated from Reid's personal briefing by CIA Director Brennan in early August.
2) Reid sent a letter on Aug. 27, 2016, to Comey claiming that “the evidence of a direct connection between the Russian government and Donald Trump’s campaign continues to mount.”

Reid called for a public investigation asking that investigation be completed before the election.
3) Three days later House Democrats wrote to Comey asking him to investigate Trump–Russia collusion in the context of the purported DNC hacking.

Their letter asked Comey to investigate “connections between Trump campaign officials and Russian interests.”

1) "The time's been long overdue...it was time to get rid of a biased middleman who was negotiating debates"

What neither @GOPChairwoman or @IngrahamAngle acknowledge is the GOP's & Fox News' role in these issues.

2) McDaniel noted the media "bias" that favors Dem candidates during debates.

We all know this to be true. But the GOP did nothing for decades.

In 2016 and 2020, Trump was hampered by highly biased moderators...

3) During the 2nd 2020 debate, Trump brought up Hunter's laptop to Biden.

Biden cited a letter from our IC officials - claiming that Trump was lying.

@kwelkernbc then stopped any further discussion.

A question for @BlackRock & @Vanguard_Group

You've held positions in Twitter for years. Price & performance has deteriorated.

How do you explain to shareholders your resistance to @elonmusk offer?

How do you explain not taking simple steps to enhance performance long ago?
Given the incredibly simple steps that are required:

1) Allowing the platform to run as an open forum for Free Speech

2) Encouraging subscriber growth rather than banning conservative ideologies

3) Removing wasteful overhead

Your refusal to do so raises very real questions.
Are you using your shareholders' money to promote your own ideologies - at the direct expense of increased return to your shareholders?

Because, honestly, that's the only explanation I can come up with given the steps you've allowed to be taken in the management of Twitter.

1) He must love us - or at least our Republic.

He is, quite literally, risking everything he built to help restore Free Speech and rebalance the system.

And make no mistake, the fight for Twitter is very real.
2) Twitter's stock price was in the low $30's prior to Elon's purchases.

Elon is offering $54.20 - a ~65% increase.

The offer is being fought not only by management, but by the media and government.

And shockingly, the other institutional shareholders.
3) The fact that Elon's offer for Twitter is at a huge premium - and is being hotly contested - tells you that Twitter is NOT being run for profit.

It's value - like most media properties - is not purely financial. It resides w/control & the ability to censor & shape narratives.

On January 19, 2017, the @AtlanticCouncil signed a "cooperative agreement" with Burisma - while Hunter was a board member...
kyivpost.com/business-wire/…
The Atlantic Council had long-operated in Ukraine.

It's impossible that they didn't know the criminal history of Burisma owner Nikolay Zlochevskyi.

Or Hunter's role on Burisma's board.
Indeed, according to the Burisma release:

"It became possible to sign a cooperative agreement between Burisma and the Atlantic Council after all charges against Burisma Group companies and its owner Nikolay Zlochevskyi were withdrawn."

1) In 2010, Hunter Biden and Devon Archer traveled to China to “explore the possibility of commercial cooperation and opportunity.”

They met with the largest and most powerful government fund leaders in China — even though their firm, Rosemont, was both new and small.
2) The timing of their meeting was also curious.

It occurred just hours before Hunter Biden’s father, the vice president, met with Chinese President Hu in Washington as part of the Nuclear Security Summit.
3) In 2011, there was a second meeting between Hunter, Rosemont Seneca Partners and the same Chinese government fund managers:

And it was just two weeks after Joe Biden had opened up the US-China strategic dialogue with Chinese officials in Washington.
