Not sure who needs to hear this, but Crossfire Hurricane was not an investigation into Trump. It was an investigation into Russian intelligence activity, and whether that activity was targeting people in Trump’s campaign (it was)
I know this is a throwback to Season 1, but the (first)
investigation into *Trump* was opened when he fired James Comey. The results of that investigation are contained in Vol. 2 of Mueller’s Report. Nothing from Durham’s investigation “exonerates” him from those conclusions
This might also be a good time to remind everyone that Mueller brought charges against 13 Russian nationals and 3 Russian companies for conspiracy to defraud the U.S. (aka election interference) as a result of the Russia probe. (which Bill Barr dropped) nytimes.com/2020/03/16/us/…

I'm reading the report by House Judiciary Committee Dems on the "whistleblowers" that Jim Jordan has brought in for his weaponization committee. HOO BOY. Jim does NOT want you to read this report, because it pre bunks a lot of his best material. So read it int.nyt.com/data/documentt…
This is the position of one of his *star witnesses*. 🤦🏾‍♀️Please bookmark this for when the GOP MAGAs claim that Democrats want to "defund the police." This guy...literally wants to defund the police Image
The other star witness. Who literally have no firsthand knowledge of what they are testifying to. Remember when Republicans were screaming "hEaRsAY!!!" all the time during the January 6 hearings? 😂 ImageImage

The FBI has a problem, and it’s coming from inside the house: Senior FBI officials resisted executing a search warrant at Mar-a-Lago and even wanted to shut down the case washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
Ummmmm
This is the same guy who asserted falsely after Jan. 6 that the FBI had no advance info that there could be violence ⬇️

This woe-is-me sob story by @dc_walter in ⁦@pawprinceton⁩ of the plight of conservatives at [checks notes] PRINCETON is…hoo boy. 🤦🏽‍♀️ (It wasn’t on my radar until my son showed it to me and asked, “Is this a serious article?”) Just a few highlights: paw.princeton.edu/article/crashi…
Article laments the fact that starting in 1964, “the political makeup of Princeton’s student body began to veer leftward.” Yeah, that pesky Civil Rights Act ruined everything for conservatives…tough times 2/
Several pages spent lamenting the loss of “aesthetic conservatism,” a.k.a. “natty suits, sipping dark spirits, and chomping fat cigars.” (For real, this complaint surfaced several times) 3/

Remember that time at band camp when David Duke endorsed Trump and Trump pretended he had no idea who David Duke was and then everyone just ignored it and elected him president? npr.org/sections/thetw…
And remember that time at band camp when Trump praised the “fine people on both sides” in Charlottesville even though the other dude were Nazis and white supremacists but everyone made excuses for what he “really” meant? washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/…
And remember that time at band camp when Chris Wallace asked Trump if he wanted to condemn the Proud Boys and he told them to “stand back and stand by” and a couple of months later they tried to overthrow the government? apnews.com/article/electi…

🚨ANNOUNCEMENT THREAD! I wanted to let all of you know that I have started a Substack! I know many people are moving to that platform because of Twitter, but this project has been in the works for a few months and is not merely a replacement for Twitter 1/ asharangappa.substack.com/p/the-freedom-…
When I considered starting a Substack I thought very carefully about what it would be -- I really wanted it to be a new and different project, and one that helped me dive deeper into the topics I'm most passionate about that I don't get to discuss on TV or here 2/
One thing I noticed is that every now and then, between my commentary on Trump drama and steam mops, I would post about things I was teaching in my class on disinformation and democracy: articles, insights, photos of me having wine & fries with guest speakers 3/
