THREAD: A REMINDER: RUDY WAS A RUSSIAN TARGET AND REPUBLICANS KNEW IT: This is a reminder of a report that came out in October, 2020. Right around the time Bill Barr asked David Weiss to take a second look at the Smirnov 1023 form, which he KNEW was Russian trash. 1/
According to The Post, when Rudy was in Ukraine in 2019, US Intel was monitoring communications Russian assets in the region, and picked up conversations with Rudy about Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, and Burisma. 2/
The multiple warnings from US Intel agencies led trump's own National Security Advisor Robert O'Brien to tell trump that "any information Giuliani brought back from Ukraine should be considered contaminated by Russia." 3/
“Do what you want to do, but your friend Rudy has been worked by Russian assets in Ukraine." It's important to note that the information matched that which turned up in the New York Post Hunter Biden laptop story. 4/
"...everybody [in the intelligence community who knew about it] was talking about how hard it was going to be to try to [Rudy] to stop, to take seriously the idea that he was being used as a conduit for misinformation.” And that wasn't the only warning. 5/
Earlier in 2019, U.S. intelligence had warned the white house IN WRITING that Giuliani, in his drive for information about the Bidens, was communicating with Russian assets. 6/
FURTHER, Barr, Wray AND Cipollone all had knowledge way back then that Rudy was being targeted by the Russians. So why was Barr giving David Weiss the 1023 if he KNEW it was Russian disinformation? 7/
BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE: CONGRESS was warned by the FBI in 2020 that Rudy was a Russian target, including SPECIFIC warnings to Ron Johnson, who was going to release rudy's info in senate hearings. 8/
Here is a quote from Ron Johnson: “Regarding reports that I received an FBI briefing warning me that I was a target of Russian disinformation, I can confirm I received such a briefing in August of 2020." August 2020 was when Barr's DoJ told Weiss the Smirnov 1023 was closed. 9/
So there is NO WAY that @RepJamesComer and @Jim_Jordan didn't know that their KEY EVIDENCE in the Biden impeachment inquiry was RUSSIAN GARBAGE. Below are my sources. END/
I hate to break it to you, but even if Garland had appointed a special counsel in 2021 and trump was indicted a year earlier, there still would not have been a trial before the election. Let me explain. 1/
We know that last year, donald filed for immunity. That's interlocutory, which means it has to be solved before trial. That whole appeal and oral argument process from district court to circuit court to SCOTUS, took nearly a year. 2/
The way SCOTUS set up the process is that they sent it back to the lower court to determine what's immune and what's not under their new immunity rules, and then THAT second immunity decision is interlocutory, too. 3/
Allow me to go through Tim Pool’s sad excuses for why he’s quitting two weeks before an election. 1/
1. “It’s not a financial thing. We make a lot of money.”
Okay, but you want to start a family and you’re gonna quit the big ol’ money maker? Or is your wife the bread winner? Kinda woke, isn’t it? 2/
2. “The structure becomes bigger and bigger and bigger until it becomes impossible to manage.”
Then you expand and hire people and pay them well and give them benefits. Sorry you’re unable to run a small business. I started at my kitchen table with 10 downloads. Now I run a network and have over 50M. But I don’t get millions from Russia. 3/
THREAD: Despite the overwhelming support for telling my story, I want to address some of the pushback I've received from Republicans on this site. First, "This is pure propaganda. Florida has exceptions for rape. You support killing babies so much you’re willing to lie to unsuspecting people about it." 1/
Let me address the "Florida has an exception for rape" point first. Florida does have an exception for rape if you provide a "police report, restraining order, medical record, or other court order." That requires the service member to report their rape. Let me tell you what happened when I tried to report my rape. 2/
I was wrapped in a blanket and bleeding because my rapist's friends had stolen my clothes. It was still dark, around 0400. I snuck out and went to the on-base law enforcement office to report the rape. I was seated in an interrogation room under one of those fluorescent lamps at a metal desk, where I waited for about 30 minutes. 3/
Um, wow. The evidence and testimony Jack Smith has is DAMNING. For instance, the government has testimony that Donald said of the voter fraud claims that the "details don't matter." There is also testimony that trump said it didn't matter if he lost, he would just declare he won. 1/
There are also multiple conversations Pence had with his running mate that they'd lost and it was time to "take a bow". I'm just digging into this, but Trump is cooked. None of this is immune (or the presumptive immunity can be easily rebutted.) 2/
HA! When Trump was on the phone with Michigan, lying to them about voter fraud, Trump was corrected and reminded he lost two counties becuase he "underperformed with educated females", which pissed him off. 3/
NEW: THREAD: A new ruling from Judge McBurney in Georgia overturning the abortion ban and allowing the procedure to continue has some REMARKABLE quotes. Let's take a look at just a few. 1/
"While the State’s interest in protecting “unborn” life is compelling, until that life can be sustained by the State -- and not solely by the woman compelled by the Act to do the State’s work -- the balance of rights favors the woman." 2/
"Women are not some piece of collectively owned community property the disposition of which is decided by majority vote. Forcing a woman to carry an unwanted, not-yet-viable fetus to term violates her constitutional rights to liberty and privacy, even taking into consideration whatever bundle of rights the not-yet-viable fetus may have." 3/
