Three Little Pigs 1/

So what about the Senators? We saw that at least 7 Republican House Members were so certain they had committed federal crimes, they begged for Presidential pardons from Trump

What about the Senators? Let's look at Trump's Three Little Pigs in a this Thread
Three Little Pigs 2/

First off is the Kentucky Swamp Creature, #MoscowMitch McTurtle. Many associate Mitch McConnell with Trump & Trumpism & connect many of Trump's horrors like SCOTUS as enabled by Mitch

The reality is quite different, however. It is Mitch who played Trump
Three Little Pigs 3/

Yes, Mitch is a monster & had caused irreparable damage to America, partly during Trump. But this is more like Hitler & Stalin. Both men were vile monsters, but sometimes allied, sometimes enemies

Mitch HATES Trump, always hated him, to this day
Three Little Pigs 4/

I would argue that the Teenage Mutant Mitch McTurtle has caused MORE lasting damage to America (through SCOTUS in particular) than Trump. But McConnell used Trump to his own ends, and importantly, DENIED Trump what Trump most wanted
Three Little Pigs 5/

The one thing Donald the Duck McTrump wanted more than anything in the whole wide world - was to have his silly little Wall. Which would not have cost much (compared to tax cuts etc)

And Mitch denied this to Trump. Trump even shut down his OWN government..
Three Little Pigs 6/

Mitch so despised Trump, that on what was meant to be their last ever meeting face-to-face in summer 2020, at White House - when Mitch came to tell Trump that GOP Senators will not support Trump into November election - the McTurtle wore an Obama-tan suit
Three Little Pigs 7/

Mitch used Trump to Mitch's own ends, to pass tax cuts for the rich & to flood US courts with McConnell's conservative judges, including 3 to SCOTUS. Judges that by the way, all hate Trump and voted systematically against Trump

Mitch didn't ask for a pardon
Three Little Pigs 8/

Next up we have Cancun Cruz, the most hated man in all of politics. Surely he was knee-deep in January 6th shit, & must have begged for a pardon? We SAW his passionate bullshit in Congress on that day

Not so fast, partner. Congressional speech is protected
Three Little Pigs 9/

Rafael, our Cruz-master, HATES Trump

And Trump hates Cruz

Ted would not lift John McCain's dead finger to help Trump. Cruz NEEDS Trump to fail & be locked up in prison

But Cruz cannot ever SAY this. Cruz is playing the NEXT con on the maga, AFTER Trump
Three Little Pigs 10/

Understand Ted Cruz. He has systematically, methodically groveled to Trump without fail, ever since that non-endorsement speech at 2015 GOP convention

Cruz HATES Trump, but pretends to be his most loyal friend. Trump sees through this, most Maga see it too
Three Little Pigs 11/

But Cruz is playing the LONG con against Maga. As long as Trump has not been locked up, Cruz claims to be loyal to Trump. While EVERY 2024 or 2028 rival for GOP nomination - every one - has wavered. Nikki Haley, Chris Christie, Death Santis, John Kasich...
Three Little Pigs 12/

Cruz doesn't care one iota what the polls say NOW. He will demolish his rivals in the DEBATES (2024 or 2028). Hey, Chris Christie, didn't you say Trump was wrong when... Hey DeSantis, didn't you turn on Trump when... The DEBATES. Cruz can claim to be 'pure'
Three Little Pigs 13/

So it is a huge con, on the maga. Cruz will promise to pardon Trump, he will praise Trump at every stage - and destroy every 2024 or 2028 Republican rival in primaries, in the DEBATES. One by one. Knock them out. That is his plan
Three Little Pigs 14/

So Ted Cruz will ABSOLUTELY not get involved in a criminal plot to overthrow America on January 6th

But he did create the ILLUSION he was 'loyally' there with them - including his memorable speech on the floor of Congress in support of Trump.
Three Little Pigs 15/

There is ONLY 1 calculation for Cruz: 'the day when Trump is in prison'. That's it. That's why Cruz promised to argue Trump's case in front of Supreme Court. Cruz knew it never gets there but he got publicity out of it. The long con
Cruz doesn't need pardon
Three Little Pigs 16/

So what about #LeningradLindsey Graham then? Did you notice, when Jan 6th Cttee interviewed TWO officials from Georgia - & Lindsey had tried to coerce Georgia to change their vote - Jan 6th Cttee 'forgot' to mention Lady G? WTF? Are they protecting Graham?
Three Little Pigs 17/

Same thing yesterday. You can be certain Sen Lindsey Graham begged Trump for a pardon. And Jan 6th Committee knows who asked for pardons. No mention of Leningrad Lindsey? Something is smelling in the swamps of South Carolina
Three Little Pigs 18/

What if Lindsey Graham has FLIPPED ? Grand #Flippathon! What if he has turned state's evidence and has ratted all Jan 6th conspirators out to Dept of Justice, FBI and the Jan 6th Committee? Would explain a lot - and why he is so conspicuous in his absence
Three Little Pigs 19/

Lindsey Graham became, after John McCain died, one of most trusted advisors to Trump. They spoke on the phone every night (Trump also spoke with Hannity, Chris Christie, Giuliani & Newt). Lindsey would show up regularly at White House & fly on Air Force One
Three Little Pigs 20/

When most only somewhat insane Trumpomobsters abandoned Trump at the end like Kellyanne Conway & Bill Barr, Leningrad Lindsey remained. It SOLIDIFIED his influence even more. And Graham did participate in Jan 6th CRIME at least re Georgia
Three Little Pigs 21/

Sen Lindsey Graham is a moral vacuum & thus the ultimate political weather vane. His position about Trump has flipped more than anyone else. BUT - at that moment in time, his POLITICAL position was ALWAYS most tenable - for a Republican. Thermometer on maga
Three Little Pigs 22/

I don't know why he did it (Jan 6th) with Trump. Maybe he was promised he'd be the Attorney General in Trump's second term as King Donald the Worst

But my take is Sen Graham requested a pardon, thought he'll get it, when not, flipped & ratted them all out

GAG ORDER THREAD

On Monday Judge Chutkan in DC (Jack Smith 2) case will hold a hearing about putting a gag order on Herr Hezbollah, the nation's Terrorist-In-Chief. Trump was under protective order. He breached it many times. So this is now his 'final warning'

Let's do a Thread Image
GAG ORDER THREAD/2

Don't look at me like that! This is JUSTICE. It is EXACTLY the same legal standard that would apply to you and me. Nothing more, nothing less. Trump is a FIRST TIME OFFENDER; has NEVER been convicted of any crime (yet). He was put on a 'protective order' FIRST Image
GAG ORDER THREAD/3

Then Trump repeatedly broke that protective order. We WITNESSED IT LIVE on TV and on social media, REPEATEDLY

But the Judge CANNOT do anything about it. Until she is FORMALLY told by the prosecution. She CANNOT do anything yet. It would be same for you and me Image

Justice IS COMING

We certainly feel it was taking too long. In reality this is about par for the course, in some ways FASTER than normal, for such a large criminal conspiracy. Timing is similar to Watergate

FIRST of PLANNERS of Jan 6 go to trial, in Georgia in two weeks !!!
Image
So January 6th, 2021 was two years and 9 months ago. Over 1,000 of the violent mob have been caught, over half prosecuted, and prison sentences for those running up to more than a decade in prison. That is justice

The ORGANIZERS of the Jan 6th plot are Trump, the Seditious Six.. Image
The ORGANIZERS of Jan 6 are
Trump
Seditious Six (Giuliani, Flynn etc)
Evil Eleven of Congress (Gosar, Gym, Gaetz etc)
and a handful others (Roger Stone, Bannon etc)
They are ALL CAUGHT

Jack Smith STARTED to prosecute the organizers. Look who he has as WITNESSES to this crime Image

Trump calls Hezbollah "very smart" for their terrorist attack? Same Senile Man called Putin smart for invading Ukraine. And called murdering dictators MBS and Kim Jong Un smart

Meanwhile Trump has called HIS OWN CABINET and HIS OWN GENERALS idiots & stupid

Ok, Trumpo, I'm game
Let's get Trump opinions by HIS OWN Generals:

General Mattis: Trump's not mature, a 5th grader
General McMaster: he's a dope, kindergartner idiot
Colonel Esper: irresponsible
General Milley: crazy
General Hytin: an idiot
General Kelly: Trump's crazy, an unhinged idiot

Next... Image
Then let's ask Trump White House staff, people Trump selected:

VP Pence: Trump is reckless
CoS 1 Priebus: he's an idiot
CoS 2 (Kelly, in above)
CoS 3 Mulvaney: terrible human being, a clown show
CoS 4 Meadows: Trump is worthless
SoS Tillerson: he's a fucking moron

and more... Image

New York New York Thread /1

Trump was massively embarrassed in New York, and that trial still continues. But this incident (Trump sitting in NY court for 3 days and then bailed) exposes insight into how incredibly stupid, and self-destructive Trump is

Let's do a Thread Image
New York New York Thread /2

So what happened? Trump sat in the civil trial - he is NOT required to be there (he must attend all criminal trials which start in March 2024). He feuded with the judge, got hit with a gag order, then stormed out of New York. Let's see how dumb it was Image
New York New York Thread /3

Donald the Duck McTrump's whole brand is based on the carefully constructed fake illusion, that he is somehow a 'billionaire'. WE know he is not. That Trump is a fake, a con-artist, living on other people's money. But his SUPPORTERS believe that lie Image

What happens next? The House cannot conduct any other business until it has selected a new House Speaker. The GOP is in civil war. It may be chaos for a while. Most likely they find a suitable Republican Speaker

DEMs do not have votes for DEM Speaker

BUT DEMs could make a deal Image
If a slice of Republicans (as few as 6) ally with DEMs, then that alliance could select (a Republican) speaker

Realistically the most logical such choice is an EX House Republican, like Liz Cheney

Because of GOP civil war, DEMs have leverage now Image
This is the deal I suggest:

DEMs make deal for ANY Republican who they can trust (like Liz Cheney, Kinzinger) where promise is 2 House Votes every week. One vote on legislation provided by GOP, the other vote legislation provided by DEMs. Both will get a floor vote each week Image

Flipper Thread/1

With Friday's bombshell news in court filing by Jack Smith of 3 more prosecution witnesses - now just about as big as they come - let's do a Thread about the flippers in Trump's life, the rats who all testify under oath, in criminal courts, against Trump Image
Flipper Thread/2

Trump committed an act of insurgency against America. That word is rarely used. The legal EFFECT is the same as 'treason'. Trump committed a crime which is essentially as bad as treason

So who does Jack Smith have as a witness? Trump's OWN Attorney General Barr Image
Flipper Thread/3

Bill Barr was not just the nation's top lawyer, as Attorney General, when this plot was first hatched - Barr learned of the idea - and TOLD TRUMP IT IS ILLEGAL. That is what Barr will testify under oath. That Trump KNEW this plot is illegal

But it gets worse Image
