Trump is now experiencing increasing paranoia, and rage of betrayal. Let's take delight in what pain past few days have given Trump
Paranoia Thread 2/
First up: Allen Weisselberg. Trump's accountant of 40 years worked for Trump's crooked scumbag slumlord dad Fred Trump. Allen was Trump's money man, knew all money matters including not just tax fraud, but Trump's money laundering and all bribes Trump took
Paranoia Thread 3/
Weisselberg just pleaded guilty in Manhattan to 15 counts of criminal tax fraud and agrees to testify against Trump's businesses. That wipes out Trump's businesses. Trump cannot trust anyone about his money - well, he's a #Debtonaire so he doesn't have any
Paranoia Thread 4/
What about Trump's White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows? Trump paid Mark one million dollars of hush money to not rat Trump out (not Trump's own money, he is broke, this is money from Trump campaign, so it is Maganutter money). Trump thought Mark was loyal
Paranoia Thread 5/
We have speculated for 5 months that Meadows has flipped and is ratting Trump out. His behavior is certainly consistent with a flip.
A few weeks ago we learned Trump own attorneys tell Trump, Meadows has flipped. That is gonna sting
Paranoia Thread 6/
The Mar-A-Lago search was directed by someone on the inside. The DOJ has admitted in court documents, they have an insider. Trump knows, it has to be someone REAL close, like a family member, because of what the DOJ knew (it wasn't Meadows or Weisselberg)
Paranoia Thread 7/
When asked, the two who know Trump family the best, Michael Cohen and Mary Trump both said, they think Jared has flipped. I've told you Jared behavior is consistent with a flip. Also Tom Barrack behavior is consistent with Jared winning & Tom losing that flip
Paranoia Thread 8/
Separately, a week ago, Trump was complaining that Don Jr will go to jail. This came out of the blue? It had to be Trump's own ATTORNEYS who told Trump this. That after Jr did not plead the fifth in NY. Note.. Ivanka did not either. Who is wearing a wire?
Paranoia Thread 9/
Trump home Mar-A-Lago was found to contain 11 boxes of classified government documents. The search warrant was procured partly due to an informant. DOJ told the judge, that informant is also assisting DOJ on an UNRELATED crime (so not espionage/theft of docs)
Paranoia Thread 10/
Immediately after the search of Mar-A-Lago the DOJ filed three new items with the courts. These are three new crimes, Trump had previously not even been investigated for.
Paranoia Thread 11/
And then there is Rudy. Giuliani testified for 6 hours in Georgia under oath. He did not dare to show his face after, and escaped TV cameras by rear exit. The only person Rudy could blame for his criming in GA was Trump. Sounds like Rudy did.
Paranoia Thread 12/
So Trump is having a miserable time. Now with Jan 6th, and Espionage, and the FBI taking Trump's Extortion Files (see my pinned Tweet) - there are Republicans turning against Trump. That will feel like the ultimate betrayal. Trump is seething
Good

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
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
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
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 !!!
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..
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
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
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...
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
