NOTHING can change this fact—MINUTES after Trump "discovered" a Kremlin agent on his NatSec team he ordered a pro-Putin GOP platform change.
2/ When Trump found a Kremlin agent on his NatSec team, he didn't FIRE him—he PROMOTED him to be a key emissary on Russian sanctions policy.
3/ Not only didn't Trump FIRE Papadopoulos ASAP, he gave him DIRECT access to ALL his top aides—every last one—for more than SEVEN MONTHS.
4/ Trump told America REPEATEDLY he knew of no contact between his aides and Russia. But Papadopoulos TOLD TRUMP he'd had Russian contacts.
5/ So only a lack of knowledge about the facts of the Trump-Russia probe could lead ANYONE to think Trump didn't suffer a MAJOR blow today.

Amazing that he couldn't even use proper grammar in answering the most important question of his life.

❎ "I never worked for Russia."
🆗️ "I've never worked for Russia."
2/ And his big denial doesn't even cover what he's *really* accused of—as what's at issue here is whether he's worked "with" Russia rather than "for" Russia. Not that anyone should believe him anyway, but this is what he should've said:

🆗️ "I've never coordinated with Russia."
3/ And of course the use of the word "Russia" here is inaccurate, as what we're speaking of is Putin's Kremlin, and more specifically than even that, *agents* of Putin's Kremlin. So what he *really* should've said is:

🆗️ "I've never coordinated with agents of Putin's Kremlin."

Trump fired Comey. Trump's campaign NatSec chief, Sessions, fired McCabe. Baker and Page *chose* to leave the FBI. Strzok was fired *despite* recommendations he get a small suspension. *Any* media reference to how these folks left the FBI without these facts is pro-Trump disinfo.
2/ I've said before and will say again that FBI employees whose errors at the FBI were a) minor, and b) not malicious got fired by Trump or his people *precisely* so that Trump could use this information down the line to smear lifelong public servants. Media is letting him do it.
3/ Donald Trump *orchestrated* the firing and libel of lifelong public servants as part of a campaign of criminal obstruction of justice, and now he is *crowing* about what he did on Twitter daily with media simply putting his tweets up on the screen without comment. It's insane.

2/ Not even spies do this—this is dumb, evil collusion.

"Trump has gone to extraordinary lengths to conceal details of his conversations with Putin, including taking his interpreter's notes and instructing a linguist not to discuss what transpired with administration officials."
3/ Trump met privately with Putin and Tillerson in Hamburg in July '17. Then the press started prying into what was said. Then Trump's Middle Eastern allies began using proxies—e.g. Broidy—to get Trump to fire Tillerson. Did they decide Tillerson wasn't loyal enough post-Hamburg?

@pollsofpolitics @MiamiPapers @NancyPelosi @POTUS @realDonaldTrump This President is the most divisive president in the History of the republic. #TRUMP has publicly stated that he enjoys the chaos and conflict he causes in his administration, the Congress, and in the coutry. He stated that turnover, resignations, and turmoil gives him pleasure
@pollsofpolitics @MiamiPapers @NancyPelosi @POTUS @realDonaldTrump This proves his psychopathic mental illness and is dangerous and destructive to a democratic republic whose strength is in its UNITY and the RULE OF LAW that protects the least of us through equal treatment under the law. Our president routinely attacks BOTH, as AGENT OF RUSSIA!
@pollsofpolitics @MiamiPapers @NancyPelosi @POTUS @realDonaldTrump #POTUS has laundered money for #Russia for DECADES. It is the ONLY reason he was able to come back from multiple bankruptcys. He is on Russia's pocket, and they KNOW it. It is why he is fearful that he will be poisoned. He should have learned the moral of his #snake allegory.

Who funds the IEA, the TPA, the ASI &co?
You know, the RW 'free trade' thick tanks advocating tax havens, "freedom" (no regulations like workers' rights or environmental protection), no welfare (no tax & no free healthcare).
Basically, "Only the wealthier survive" philosophy?
1/n
*Could it be* that it has something to do with defending their funders' interests?
Today, I'm going to tell you the Thick Tanks' Hydra tale.
Featuring Atlas, huge piles of money, tradition, "free speech", useful idiots and a very clear agenda that Brexit/Trump are a part of.
2/n
Take a seat: It's a long story, with a lot of players, including politicians, pretty ladies squatting your TV, the climate change denial's network, the global fascist movement, Silicon Valley/multiname data-stealing/misusing company & private companies' involved in elections.

💣 💥💥💥⚡Thread and article: How the #Kremlin used biker clubs as a #hybridwar tool to influence #Midterms2018. #bikersfortrump #Putin's bikers, #SunnyIsles

Spetsnaz bikers & professional politicians & security services behind them. Bonus: #Trump at a calligraphy museum, a chainsaw, Cristian Zionists, Russian Orthodox bikers, Chekh German shepherds, Miami birthtourism, a plane on the North Pole, and a bar called Suck Bang Blow...👇.
1. The Kremlin uses Russian Orthodox bikers also known as “Putin’s bikers” as para-military pro-Putin forces domestically and internationally since at least 2012.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full

Just remember, Trump has ALWAYS praised #Putin.
Last July he called for #Russia to hack @HillaryClinton's email.
politico.com/story/2016/07/…
1/
Trump's own tweets defend acting in collusion with Russia to take down @HillaryClinton:

Trump's calls for Russia to hack @HillaryClinton came right before the RNC in Cleveland.
