News that Sessions has not recused on U1 means he is now investigating Rosenstein & Mueller while they investigate Russia...

#Brilliant
Senators have told Trump he better not fire Sessions or Mueller but what if Sessions charges Rosenstein or Mueller, then where are we...
If nothing else U1 is a textbook case of investigators operating outside of guidelines & concealing information in a way that risked NatSec.
Sessions in charge of U1 Investigation is a huge power move that definitely puts Sessions and Mueller on notice...

1/ Here’s the transcribed Trump quote from last night. If you’ve been reading my TL, this is what I’ve been explaining. The firing of Comey launched a sting on McCabe who predictably did what they expected and opened inappropriate investigations against POTUS.
2/ I want you to take notice that Trump names exactly who “did it” and he does not mention Rosenstein. The reality that there was a sting run by DOJ, where McCabe was the target triggered by Rosenstein’s letter and Comey’s firing, is now nearly impossible to deny.
3/ The investigation targeting McCabe would’ve been viewed as obstruction if McCabe would’ve continued as the head of the investigations that he launched after Comey’s firing. There was only one way to pull the plug on McCabe and avoid obstruction claims.

Appoint Mueller.

1/ OK so here we are preparing for Trump’s primetime address from the Oval Office. I think it’s important to look back on how we got here and analyze Trump’s strategy. If you’re like me, you wanted Trump to do this on day one and every day since. It’s been hard to be patient
2/ It’s important to know that Trump always plays the long game and as every great strategist he doesn’t move all his chips in until the right moment. (Keep this in mind when you fear Trump will never hold people accountable for the corruption in 2016.)
3/ It only makes sense that this strategy and the timing around it was discussed and decided on going back to at least the transition. So as they sat around that table, why would they pick this option? Because it gave them a guaranteed win. That’s right, 100% certainty of a wall.

1/ If you read my thread yesterday afternoon then this @EliLake article is a reprise for you. Thread here ⬇️


Eli correctly makes two key points. First, it’s not clear why Flynn lied. Second, that the actions of FBI were outrageous.
bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
2/ “It remains a mystery why Flynn...would lie.”

There’s not an obvious reason why he’d lie. Now keep in mind his lie to the FBI was precipitated by a supposed lie to Pence that led Pence to lie on a Sunday show. A straight reporter like Eli won’t speculate. I have. #StingTrap
3/ What resulted from Flynn’s “lying”? The exposure of the FBI’s political bias and corrupt intent; abuse of power, leaking and lying to the IG and Congress.

Unlike Susan Rice in Benghazi, FBI treated the National Security Advisor to the President as a member of a crime family.

This article has provoked a lot of commentary today. Most of the commentary from the the left has been alarmist, though some (like @SethAbramson) have been dismissive. I don’t think either response is appropriate. 1/16
There was every reason to expect that Mueller would go into action again shortly after the election; we didn’t need this article to know that. 2/16

#Rosenstein’s remarks (about exercising the Fifth Amendment and wiring Trump) were clearly facetious. But it just occurred to me that this isn’t the point. 1/5
All the saboteurs on the Right might need to get Trump to stop #Rosenstein & the #Mueller investigation is the disclosure that there was a discussion that showed agency concern about Trump AT ALL. 2/5
It was reported early last month that Trump and Rosenstein had a “great relationship.”

It is hard to see how that kind of relationship can survive this NYT story, 3/5 tinyurl.com/yaaasm8j

Russia is main suspect in mystery attacks on U.S. diplomats in Cuba nbcnews.com/news/latin-ame… via @NBCNews
Terrifying read on 9/11. US now calls Cuba embassy mystery that caused brain damage to 26 US personnel intentional “attacks”—likely by #Russia. If so, more stunning Russian aggression to add to the recent use of military-grade #Novichok nerve agent on #Skripal in #Salisbury UK.

@realDonaldTrump attempts to walk back his #treason, claims he meant to say there was no reason "it wouldn't be #Russia" behind election meddling.🙄

"I said the word would instead of wouldn't...I think that probably clarifies things."

#Treason

Trump later said that he accepted the USIC’s conclusion that #Russia🇷🇺interferes in the election, but **in the SAME sentence** added that “it could have been someone else.”🙄

Even IF you believe Trump misspoke in that 1 sentence, it does NOT explain the rest of his TREASONOUS remarks:

👉🏼Praised #Putin as “strong, very strong,” as he accepted Putin’s denial
👉🏼NEVER mentioned the MURDER & attempted murders perpetrated by #Russia🇷🇺on British soil

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
