WHAT TRUMP TOOK Image
there were TWO disclosures of classified materials Image
Trump failed to turn over 140 documents with classified markings upon the first time he did turn documents over Image
Trump, for a period of time, stacked boxes from his time at the White House on a ballroom stage at Mar-a-Lago Image
oh man. the boxes literally fell over and spilled out sensitive content Image
hiding the moving of boxes of sensitive materials from his own lawyers Image
Trump had documents concerning U.S. nuclear capabilities and the nuclear capabilities of a foreign country ImageImage
probably the most enduring part of the indictment is Trump, showing sensitive military plans to an official with his super PAC and urging that person to "not get too close” because the docs, he knew, are sensitive.

Look, but only from afar.

What a love fest. They both admire each other. They actually have a lot in common. They even share voters. Hell they might collab on ICE and cost of living stuff. Everyone is so happy
He called you a despot!

I've been called worse.

He denounced immigration enforcement

We share the larger objectives

🚨🚨The president appears to be saying he will NOT abide by the court order to release SNAP benefits even though the WH said they would partially release them Image
an hour ago Trump's own Ag Sec was explaining that they'd given guidance to states about how to administer SNAP benefits from the emergency fund. Now Trump is saying he won't pay those benefits until the government is reopened

Trump is both defying a court order and taking ownership of the ending of food benefits for needy people all during a shutdown fight that polls show him losing.

As the dust settles, it's clear that Vought's RIFs amount to a Friday night massacre at the CDC. Lots of confusion as to the total number gone. But several sources tell me top officials and many staff at the center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion and the center for immunization and respiratory diseases are OUT. Am told the Ebola response team has been hit hard too.
Again, there is mass confusion. but it appears the government's chief agencies responding to outbreaks and studying infectious diseases have been gutted. if you know more we have a secure tip line here. I'm also on signal asteinindc.09

to put a finer point on it. I'm told the ACTING DIRECTOR and CHIEF MEDICAL OFFICER for the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases are now gone.

CDC staff and alums gathered outside HQ this afternoon to salute those top four officials who resigned in protest yesterday. the crowd looks fairly massive, per a pic sent to me Image
Debra Houry, speaking now, said the four who resigned (her included) had been talking about whether they would need to do so for months. They agreed to do it together. "we need congress to intervene," she stresses.
she warns there will be "many others" who lose or leave their jobs at the CDC soon.

Absolute BLOODBATH at HHS/NIH/CDC this morning. Generation of scientists, health care officials being wiped out Image

Vence Bonham, the acting deputy director of the National Human Genome Research Institute, told colleagues this morning that he had been “unexpectedly” placed on administrative leave. He had a 20-year career as a researcher and leader at NIH. Within a few moments, it was gone.

NEW: In Nov. 23, Democratic Victory PAC sent a fundraising email saying it was struggling to raise cash and asking for $20 donations. That same day, it spent $213k at the ARIA Resorts in Vegas.

This is a story of an alleged “scam-PAC.” A THREAD

To being: What is Democratic Victory? It’s one of a series of PACs secretly run by Dem operatives and infamous for unscrupulous methods. It’s among those spamming folks in the recent Kamala Harris fundraising boomlet, prompting the campaign to warn donors against giving to it.
What makes the group controversial is not just how it raises money but how it SPENDS it. Little goes to candidates. A lot goes towards the other businesses its officers operate—and to supporting their lavish travel habits, too.
