I have four points I want to make about the partisan memo released by Senate Republicans from the prosecutor they brought in to cross examine the sexual assault survivor they were too scared to question themselves.
1) I watched Dr. Ford share her story & I believe her. She was honest, real, & when she said she was 100% sure, she had absolutely no reason to lie. I watched Judge Kavanaugh & I don’t believe him. He seemed angry, defensive, entitled & untruthful about a range of subjects.
2) Senate Republicans chose to make this a he-said-she-said hearing, it didn’t have to and shouldn’t have been. We should have heard from ALL relevant witnesses after full investigation to bring in all facts and info.

I want to thank Prof. Ford for her bravery. I can only imagine the trauma & heartache involved in sharing & reliving a sexual assault like this—she should know that I and millions of people are standing by her side and stand ready to help however we can.
This week’s Judiciary Committee vote on Judge Kavanaugh should be delayed. It’s not a debatable or difficult decision.
The fact is that Senators now have new information about a potential crime committed by a nominee for the highest court in the land and an accuser who has come forward with details of the alleged criminal act.

The world watched yesterday as President Trump showered praise upon the Russian President who directed the interference of our elections. It was deeply horrifying & alarming that our President failed to use that moment to push Putin to end his attacks on our country & elections.
Instead of standing up for our national values & security, our President defended Putin on all fronts. Now it seems Trump is desperately trying to backtrack—but we all heard what he said & know where he stands. It’s appalling, inexcusable, & unworthy of the Presidency.

@Jim_Jordan Any #Trump sycophant, alleged pedophile protector, trying to besmirch this hero, while his own children will have to suffer from the decisions made for the country, is sad. Why wouldn't the #GOP make it an open door session if they had nothing to hide? Your reign ends soon.
@Jim_Jordan As time passes, more comes to light, with the Steele dossier, Trumps alleged involvement in Epstein child sex ring where Secretary Acosta stopped the FBI investigation before more suspects could be arrested, and money laundering campaign contributions from Russian operatives.
@Jim_Jordan Plus your support for a theocratic monarchy that really acts like a ruthless inhumane dictator & desire to sell American technology to them when it could then be used to kill our own troops or handed over to Russia is genuinely INSANE. Who is dishonorable, spineless sycophantic?

#Trump's last campaign rally of the 2018 mid-term election season is scheduled to start in about ten minutes. It's his THIRD rally of the day. Dude is likely exhausted and I doubt this rally will be less "speech" and more "incoherent tirade".
At any rate, here's the thread for it! Follow/mute at will!
Current Pre-show music is the Rolling Stones' "Sympathy for the Devil." I couldn't make this up if I tried.

(Thread) Lozansky, the bombing of Kosovo, and that time the Russian "turned" part of a Congressional Delegation.
2. We have been covering the Lozanskyverse for a long time - as evidence by this original deep dive. #TrumpRussia thesternfacts.com/how-one-man-in…
3. There is ONE event - an event that seemed relatively minor at the time - where I speculate that Kompromat was obtained and some congressmen were turned.

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

One of the more insidious ways that corporations game our political system is by funding intellectually shoddy work that supports their policy goals. This is a thread about an organization here in Washington called the “Tax Foundation.” 1/
The Tax Foundation has gained a lot of credence in the debates on tax policy. Its experts are often quoted in the press. They are smart people. 2/
But the fact is, the Tax Foundation is a mission-driven, advocacy organization that advocates for tax cuts, and especially, corporate tax cuts. 3/
