THREAD: This is harrowing. Saudi Arabia wanted the names of 6000 anonymous Arab Spring dissidents from Twitter. At first, MBS tried to get their names using EDRs - requests under emergency circumstances. When that proved cumbersome, KSA basically bought Twitter. 1/

They did so by threatening to pull twitter out of their market (biggest in the Middle East) and by offering to invest in heavily in Twitter. They also positioned two spies inside Twitter who helped funnel the personal information on dissidents out of Twitter to KSA. 2/

In 2011, they invested $300M. In 2022, MBS bought that investment for $1.5B, worth $1.9B later that year, making KSA (The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia) the biggest shareholder of Twitter behind Elon Musk. 3/

The two KSA spies inside Twitter INFORMED Twitter that the personally identifying information they were gathering was for the Saudi Government. One received money and gifts from the KSA in exchange for the user data including $300K and a nice job after he fled the US. 4/

Not only that, but the KSA oversaw a digital army of hundreds of Twitter users who hunted for dissident voices, and Twitter KNEW because the FBI confronted Twitter about it in 2015. 5/

Then, within 48 hours of the FBI visit to Twitter, the social media company acknowledged they had "found" the leak to the FBI - proving they knew. The next day, the spy fled the US. 6/

Six months later, Jack Dorsey met with MBS to discuss how they could work together to "train and qualify" Saudi groups on Twitter to do the very same work the two spy employees had done. And just 8 months prior to that meeting, KSA doubled its investment in Twitter. 7/

Once KSA had recruited Twitter, it plotted to kidnap, disappear, and murder multiple dissident voices including the plaintiff's brother, and Jamal Khashoggi. The transnational criminal enterprise of threats to anonymous Twitter dissidents continues to this day. 8/

I recommend you read this lawsuit to understand WHY the KSA and MBS own the second largest chunk of Twitter behind Elon Musk. How involved is Musk? I keep thinking of the photos from the World Cup with Kushner and MBS. What's Kushner's involvement? He just got $2B from MBS. 9/

Hoo boy. Special counsel just provided Judge Cannon with all the examples of how dangerous Trump’s rhetoric is in support of his motion to modify the bail conditions. Check this out: 1/

A SHORT THREAD.

This article from the Times says Trump has more money that Biden. I don’t see a source here, but it must be the FEC, right? I mean, this is the @nytimes. They would just print stuff willy nilly, would they? 1/

Hmm. Interesting. I’m listening. What’s your source, though? Must be the FEC right? 2/

Oh. Well, wait. What? Your source for Trump numbers is TRUMP? Think you maybe shoulda brought that up a few paragraphs ago? Or in the headline, perhaps? 3/

THREAD: SCOTUS RAHIMI: TW/CW: DOMESTIC VIOLENCE: I’m relieved SCOTUS ruled 8 - 1 that a domestic abuser under a restraining order cannot own a firearm, but I’m equally appalled at Thomas’ repugnant dissent. Here’s why. 1/

Thomas writes that the law in question “is not triggered by a criminal conviction or a person’s criminal history, therefore it strips an individual of HIS (interesting use of pronoun there) ability to possess firearms and ammunition without due process.” With zero due respect Clarence, to hell with you and your selective due process. 2/

A conviction isn’t as straightforward as that. Most battered partners aren’t out from under the control of their abuser until much later. In mid-December 2019, my ex was arrested for felony assault domestic violence. That night, he had been drunk and erratic. As was our ritual, I locked myself in the bedroom until he slept it off. But this time he followed and banged on the door nearly breaking it down. 3/

NEVADA! A quick 🧵

@RosenForNevada needs your help to defeat MAGA Sam Brown and codify Roe! Brown thinks Trump did a great job 🤯 Keep Brown OUT and send Jacky Rosen back to the Senate. 1/

MAGA Sam Brown wants to BAN ABORTION and has birth control in his sights. He wants to gut Social Security and repeal Obamacare, and would love nothing more to extend tax breaks to his wealthy friends. 2/

But Jackie Rosen will continue to stand for reproductive rights while going after corporate landlords and making sure the wealthy pay their FAIR SHARE! 3/

Alright. I’m watching Jaws for the first time. I’m 50 years old. I don’t have a good excuse for not having seen it yet.

So far, it seems as though business guys don’t want the main guy to put signs up in response to a shark attack because they don’t wanna lose money. Typical. 1/

Oh! There’s the old “that’s some bad hat, Harry” line. OOOH THE MUSIC IS STARTING… blood in the water!! 2/

Uh oh. Here comes the denials. “There’s no shark around here.” They’re trying to bury it! They’re literally whitewashing the shark story. THERE WAS A BLOOD FOUNTAIN! This is like watching Trump handle COVID. 3/

THREAD: For Ken Dilanian at @MSNBC, who says Garland didn't do anything for 18 months. Can someone get this to him because he blocked me in 2019 when I called him out for getting the Mueller findings wrong. First, here's a non-exhaustive list of what Garland did before he appointed Jack Smith. 1/

Next, here’s recent reporting from the New York Times showing Garland started investigating Trump as soon as he got to the DoJ in March, 2021. 2/

Then by summer 2021, Garland became frustrated with the Trump holdovers at the FBI slowing down the probe. 3/
